I don't know why we have to have these daily arguments over any game that is vaporware. Vaporware by my view, would be any game I can't drop my hard earned nickle down on the table to play. So I include games like WAR, AOC, STO, and DF as vapoware. A company can make poor business decisions and fall flat on it's face at any time, whether they have reached a BETA stage or not. Yet people still have this crazy urge to vehemently defend (and attack) games they have only heard about, created by people they have never met.
Hey, I want to see DF come out and be a success as much as anyone. But creating troll threads accomplishes nothing to further the cause, in fact, it makes DF fanbois look, well, fanatical. And certainly folks I'd rather not game with.
As for this post being moved to the DF forum, that's exactly where it belongs (hey, at least they didn't delete it)
Its just no use OP, until Adventurine choses to reveal more of their hand than they've been willing to so far, people will not believe this game is ever coming out.
Easy to fix, but its all up to the developers to make that decision.
Who the hell are you, and why should I care? Congrats! You are a victim of Trollstar!
A "good" game and a "successful" game aren't always the same thing. So I guess as long as it stays operational (if it's ever released) then it's a "success" but don't plan on seeing any major commercial success.
MMORPGs are the only video game genre where something like this could be said. Good games se themselves, but somehow this fact has been traditionally ignored by MMORPGs and their developers. They can put out buggy, incomplete, timesink-laden garbage and as long as they get enough people to buy it, they consider that they've made a "good" game
Recent MMORPGs trying to target the hardcore fanbase or use sandbox mechanics (like Vanguard or Dark and Light) have yet to show that they can even be playable, much less profitable enough to maintain themselves.
More diversity in the MMORPG genre is a good thing, but Darkfall has severe challenges facing it, and history is not on its side. The developers will have to pull off a major feat to win against the odds.
Theory of darkfall is amazing but it will be ruined by its player base. You will have a few strong elite clans. Merchants in player owned cities will get abused over priced if they leaders get to set prices. Its a sandbox game but if they give the players to much control it will be ruined...
On top of that with the wave of people that join the game it will be ruined as well. Look at subscription flows. A chunk at the start then build over time. Darkfall is set if your not there at the start you will fall behind, skilling up from behind is hard in a Full PVP world because you will get ganked over and over again. Add that with the ability to get looted your looking at people just killing new players over and over again for shits and giggles till the player base dwindles.
Great idea I will play it at release if it comes, but it will die out because of people that get their jollies off by killing lowbies instead of taking on a real fight.
I hope darkfall get released one day. I mean, I dont hate the game, but I dont like it because I havent tried it out yet, (like all of us) but well the game promises a lot. It's just I dont understand this kind of post. Talking about darkfall, or WoW, or "lol online", but well, maybe this is a discussion boards and all of us post whatever we want.

I'm actually alittle worried about that too truthfully. Especially with full looting and that you can kill *anyone* *anywhere* at *anytime* it makes you wonder what the community will be like. I think it could go a few different ways though, and I think it will be interesting how it turns out. Seriously this game has way too many features that we haven't seen in a game like this before, so to pull it off would be somewhat a miracle.
They're implementing rock climbing.... what the hell!? You'd have to skill up rock climbing.. thats intense.
you forget the alignmeant system lol thats going tohelp alot more than yout hink starter towns are pretty much safe areas cause npcs are godly strong evil its like a 4/1 ratio on a high skilled person and newbies and 1 newbie still has a chance to go 1/1 but it be alto harder but there is a chance
this isnt level based eve is sandbox /skill based and it has plenty of subs ><
when game starts yes when all are low lvl but later alignment will not be such a big deal and many dont care you will have plenty of clans who will be on a killing spree and kill even there own race to:)

The idea behind DF sounds great sure but its been in production for 6 years? One video? Almost no news ever comes out on it. To be honest I dont know if the game will ever be done and before I jump on the hype it would be nice to see a number of in game videos or something other than promises.
You gotta get some facts straight before you post anything more. 5 videos last time i checked. 205 developer updates and news. Upgrading graphics to something that to me seems like best in class. But i agree it would be nice with some more. Guess you just have to accept that you cant get same hype material from a small company as Aventurine as you get from Funcom.
But development seems to go forward in a stable way and they have choosen to selfpublish in one region which is something good.
Only true sandbox game in development not rushed its done when its done. And only game that will be core made for hardcore pvp/rpg and still very playble for all who want freedom to be a crafter, pve player, explorer or many other choices you wanne be. It dare to be different and not copy those already on market. All who flame this becouse its different or vaporware and not wow/gw/eq/l2 like,will loose, becouse there are many mmo players around the globe, who realy want a CHELLENGE back in there mmo game again, and Darkfall will give that game experience back to us. Dakfall will deliver:)
You are so sure that it will see "the light", but after some years Im starting to think that this will be never ended (thanks that is not the case...)
Ps: Last entrance I can see in the dev blog is near 1 year ago.
Here you have a link to developer journals, news, screenshots and videos. Seems last one was from 28/3 2008.=)

Who knows, might be great, might be a crap ... As i see its possible for it not even to be released so delayed it is.
delay doesnt mean no release damn it
running out of money could possible be no release but they have the money for it : )
