The fanbois will tell you that Darkfall has a following that just can't be compared but yet here's some real proof as to how popular Darkfall really is. Keep in mind Darkfall and it's website have been around since 2001.
Now lets see how Darkfall stacks up to its competitors.
Google results:
Results 1 - 10 of about 1,230,000 for darkfall. (since 2001)
Results 1 - 10 of about 31,000,000 for warhammer
Results 1 - 10 of about 21,300,000 for age of conan
Results 1 - 10 of about 1,650,000 for Earthrise (earthrise was just announced this year.)
Considering Darkfall and its website have been online for 7 years these numbers are pretty bad.

They are pretty bad.
I have about ten friends that will play DF, none of them have ever visited a DF forum. They are just waiting.
Nice troll attempt but googling proves nothing in all honesty. Google your own name does that really say how popular you are?
Also I have never seen any darkfall fan claim that Darkfall is going to be huge number wise. Darkfall is a niche game for PvPers and well as those sick of the current easy mode MMORPGs.
Sooner or Later
Horrible... Horrible post.
Of course Darkfall would have so many fewer hits on google.
Your Warhammer search has all things related to Warhammer come up. Including book, fan-sites, the table top game and a whole host of other stuff.
Age of Conan is also going to bring up a lot of the other Conan material, like the movies, books, lore ect.
While Darkfall and Earthrise are mostly going to have hits that have something to do with the game.
Besides, since when does more Google hits mean your popular?
- - "What if the hokey pokey really is what it's all about?" - -
well you always see how this girl or that celeb is the most searched for on google.. so ya if you have lots of google hits you mst be popular.
Strangely enough I actually already know the answer to this.
There are currently 5,000,000 fans of DF. That taeso bloke said so and he must know.
or was it 3million? cant remember but it was A LOT!!!

I think everyone "knows" about DF. Just take a look here at MMORPG.com.......everyone know.
Another moron, Age of conan is a one of a kind product.All other conan products are simply Conan: XXXXXX
Since you have no idea how a search engine works, it cuts of words and uses word phrases to come up with the most possible items. So Age of Conan would in fact bring up Conan related material in the search indexes. It will first match all the words though for the best results so it may be 75pages later but eventually when the search engine compares just the word "Conan" you got other crap so it's not realistic to try and use popularity with a search engine.
Do you know what quotation marks are used for in Google search?
why why why!!
I am pissing myself laughing at this. Are we so desperate we are now counting hits on a website to rank how popular it is!?
Come on! Are you serious?
I will play DF and i haven't visited the website in months so there goes your theory already.
Next you will be counting how many cars are parked outside their office.....
I love how he assumes that every website google finds about warhammer, must be about the mmorpg.
That's just plain stupid.
I do, I'm a programmer and have programmed search engines, search scripts, and web crawlers. Trust me I know what I am talking about. They all pair up words and they all cut words to find hits.
Quickly someone get on a satellite!
WAR VS DF VS WOW
WAR - 849.000.000
WOW - 422.000.000
DF - 119.000.000
Clearly WAR is the most popular game.

Get the addy and use Google Earth!
There are 3 types of people in the world.
1.) Those who make things happen
2.) Those who watch things happen
3.) And those who wonder "What the %#*& just happened?!"
I just googled my whole name, then i googled just my first and last name. (with quotes, of course) Nothing. Geez. My name is REALLY unpopular!
