Utterly ridiculous...
By far the most utterly ridiculous words on these Darkfall forum threads is being repeated by the fans over and over and over, and it's not only wrong at so many levels, but absolutely ridiculous to even speak of.
What I am talking about is the constant comparisons of this game to Funcoms' Age of Conan mmo.
How in the hell can you even begin to compare this game or hoax or whatever it is to an mmo that has actually released, seen success, and is up, running, and playable?
...And furthermore, the faith you fans have to actually trash Age of Conan constantly like you know that this POS game is gonna blow Age of Conan away. What proof do you have that Darkfall will even ever release first of all? And if it does, how do you know that it won't be more along the lines of Mourning or Dark and Light? How do you know it will even be as good as Dark and Light? I'd call it a major success if it releases and has as much success and runs as smoothly as Dark and Light did when it released, and if that happened, then trashing Age of Conan would certainly make a bigtime fool out of you.
I am betting now that Age of Conan has seen 5000% more success that Darkfall ever will, and that Darkfall, even if released, will NEVER EVER run as good as Age of Conan even on AOCs worst day.
I am not saying that Age of Conan is a great game, but compared to what we have with Darkfall right now, Age of Conan is so far ahead, it's not even comparable. Once Darkfall actually releases, then we will make comparisons.
So you fans keep telling yourself that Darkfall is a billion times better then Age of Conan with absolutely nothing to back it up except your wildest fantasies. I feel bad for you when something they call "reality" hits you upside the head if/when this POS game actually does release.
Comments
Age of Conan gets so much hate here, because it was a giant hoax and i personally didn't see any of the avid MMO scam specialist trolling here in the AoC forums predicting it's failure. While they seem to be really confident that Darkfall will flop on it's back.

ROFL. Did we step on your Age of Conan toes?
Age of Conan a success you say?
Age of Conan is the worst ever released MMORPG so far. Theyre nothing but a bunch of thiefs and scammers. Fuck Funcom. I cincerely hope that shit company goes bankrupcy. Its what they deserve after scamming their own playerbase with lies of something that didnt exist. They delivered a game that was still in beta and isnt out of it yet.
They stole money from there playerbase promising a game they couldnt deliver. They took in preorders on same shitgame. Fooled there future subscribers of their hard earned money.
Darkfall on the other hand dont gonna take preorders. You will be able to try the full game before you buy it. Thats playing with open cards and a mature way to sell your product. No sneaking arround like Funcom thiefs did.
A huge difference btw Darkfall fans and AoC fans is that we dont roam Age of Conan site in numbers talking BS about AoC when numerous AoC fans still roam Darkfall site BS talking Darkfall. Were to mature for that.
Oh my. Age of Conan is a hoax huh?
As you continue to wait and wait and wait for something called 'Darkfall'.
Irony at it's best.
AoC is a hoax... oh my.
Still it looks better at paper than AoC. If it will be better? dunno.
I never followed AoC but I played it during beta and after release. Got to lvl 20 before I quit, WoW lvl 24 and EQ2 lvl 52.
It's not just AoC it's the games since SWG, DAoC I have a hard time to enjoy.
So go back to AoCs forum and don't retaliate AoC failure here.

AoC is a hoax... oh my.
It was a hoax as in they did not deliever what they promoted.... Its that simple.... AoC is a shell of what they told everyone it was, it was not even close to what was hyped.
AoC = Failure and should not have launched.
Sooner or Later
I have to agree with AoC being the worst release, and pretty much everything *should* have a better release. Heck even VGs full of laggy bugs was a better release due to content.
But to say Funcom stole everyone's money... no they didn't. Your fellow players were the ones that hyped you all up to extremes, not Funcom. I knew within a couple hours playing beta it was bad, but nobody listened to me when I told them.
PS. Still don't think Darkfall exists! lol

Aye its the largest hoax ever.
In the manner that this thread is intended I think you deserve a resonse for your excelent post...
rant rant rant , add a little fluff and piles on the lies, provide no proof and then demand some wierd.
SEE YOU IN THE GAME that is DARKFALL ... (of and by the way AOC is the biggest pile of ##### that is if you bothered to play it and a total rip off)
Wow only 4 line to respond to such an excelent thread

Funcom did there best to hype their game and the fans hyped it.
Darkfall developers dont hype their game, only fans hype it.
A large difference if you compare Aventurine with Funcom concerning hype. Also a large difference concerning honesty.
While I don't agree that AoC is a success (because it isn't), AoC does have quite a few points to its advantage when compared to Darkfall.
1.) It released.
2.) It showed more info and more material prior to its release than Darkfall has in its long development time.
3.) It -did- have a "known" company behind it, it was known that money was invested into it, while in Darkfall, you only have the word of a bunch of Developers in a company that hasn't produced anything so far.
These are the three things it has over Darkfall.
Darkfall looks way better on Paper, but nobody can know if things actually turn out as they are promised. Saying that is acting a lot like those "fanbois" you constantly criticized during the final days before AoC's release Aragon. Because you go purely on faith. Tasos could just as well scam you. Do you -know- that you can test Darkfall before you play it? No, you don't. Do you -know- the game will be all Tasos promises? No you don't.
You take it on faith. It's always easy to call BS on something that has failed, but you shouldn't do it while being backed only by a developers words and vague media that is available on Darkfall right now.

That's funny, because the game works great for me. I hit 70 fps almost everywhere, sometimes 90 fps and the graphics are actually spectacular. Now the game DOES have very high end computer requirements to run stable and smoothly. But i really haven't had any problems with AoC.
I'm sorry that you are trying to run AoC on some old 2002 Compaq computer that simply can't handle it, or whatever your problem is, but calling it a hoax and disaster is pretty ridiculous to say the least. The game currently has over 100,000 subscribers least I read. That is hardly a disaster.
Now Age of Conan is not the game I want to play, and I haven't paid for my subscription past my first 30 days, but that has nothing to do at all with it not working or not running well for me.
I just want to let you know that calling Age of Conan a "hoax" and all is making a complete ass out of yourself. Especially when you sit day after day drooling for "Darkfall".
They promised us Shadowbane 2 and gave us WoW 2 with a broken half-assed guildwars mechanic straped onto the end.
Garbage.

Think AoC is bad and had 100 or so professionals building it??
Now just imagine how bad Darkfall must be. lol
Darkfall will probably end up being right along side Dark and Light as one of the worste things ever.
The similarities are scary.
They pick on AoC because hating on AoC and funcom is the flavor of the month. Yes some people, who thought they were getting a full game and paid for the box set should be ticked. At least they got to try the game before loving/hating it though. Give it a few months...AoC will have improved (mabey a little mabey a lot) and Darkfall will either exist as a playable game in beta, or continue as it has, a bunch of screenshots and hype.
I cant wait to see how darkfall ends up being, if it ends up at all. But i dont get hyped up about a game that hasnt been played yet and i certainly dont pay to beta test.
/Agree.
If Darkfall actually releases and runs as well as Dark and Light, then I'd be surprised. I'd predict about HALF as well as Dark and Light with three times as many bugs as Dark and Light had when it released. That is REALISTIC people.
Thinking that Darkfall is gonna blow away Age of Conan is so far off the deep end, it's not even funny.

Alot of blaha, blaha added with some lies about AoC.
Go back and read AoC site here at MMORPG.com and get back to reality.
aoc a hoax? aoc is a real game, 400k subs. darkfall is the hoax. aoc has problems but at least you can play it, darkfall will never even go into beta. no one is ever going to play this game. nice post OP

AoC is a hoax... oh my.
It's with half the features promised and hyped for months, buggy and poorly optimised. Their clients payed for what was basically an extented beta test. And when they cancelled their subscribtions Funcom charged them another month. Also the sad little e-mails to Anartchy Online subscribers about "AoC's amazing success", saying it was the world's top MMO and shit like that.
And looking back at their awesome game they started an expansion!
While Darkfall hasn't taken a cent from anyone.

1) Yeah released but trash.
2) They had to release lots of material to draw people in to SCAM them and they did a good job.
3) Just look to EvE and think on.
DF has provided updates in a development phase the fans have hyped the game not the developers not much more to say. Could have been developed alittle faster but with small dev team and limited resources timeline is more than comparabile if not ahead of other MMOs.
Oh and lastly if the current crop of MMOs were any good why would so many be on the forumns looking for another game and yes that includes you unless you are just here to troll.

Professionals my ass.
The incompetence Funcom showed us is epic.
Never seen such a bunch of incompetent thiefs and scammers before.
1) Yeah released but trash.
Utterly beside the point.
2) They had to release lots of material to draw people in to SCAM them and they did a good job.
And what tells you that it's not the same with Darkfall? You#re actually helping my argument here.
3) Just look to EvE and think on.
EVE did not promise to be the game that has everything a MMO-Player could dream of and better than any other game out there...like Darkfall does.
DF has provided updates in a development phase the fans have hyped the game not the developers not much more to say. Could have been developed alittle faster but with small dev team and limited resources timeline is more than comparabile if not ahead of other MMOs.
Darkfall is a curious combination of no to little information, coupled with an unknown developing team and a HUGE promise.
If they hadn't promised all the features they did, people might not be as untrusting. If they hadn't boasted of how their game will be bigger, better, faster, and avbove all innovative than all others, people might believe them a little more.
As it is, they promised the MMO Dream come true, with no risks involved, free to test, no strings attached. All the while providing no proof that they actually have a game with all those features they promised (even though it's supposed to be feature complete for a while now).Is it really that difficult to see why people could be skeptical?

Aragon - please enlighten me.
WHAT HAS DARKFALL SHOWN YOU in 7 YEARS to make you feel that it is above ANYTHING currently out on the market?
Please tell me.
Is it the few outdated looking Alpha videos that show MAYBE 10% of the games intended gameplay???
Is it all the missed dates , all the missing information , and all the unfullfilled promises??
Is it all the bullshit unconfirmed hype that Tasos spews from his finger tips every chance he gets??
What is it???
Please tell me... What makes Darkfall so much better than any game that is actually out there right now , has subscribers and is making money?
Please.... do-tell.

Now, that coming from just looking at the first few of many reviews listed hardly says the Age of Conan is a hoax, or that it is total crap. I really hope that Darkfall one day does actually release. I'd love to see the reviews that it gets and make the comparisons. But what's that??? Ohhhh we can't compare the reviews nor the games yet can we? Yeh, I know... Darkfall isn't quite out yet. Probably just around the corner. Tasos said so. {sarcastic thumbs up}
Oh by the way people... if you want to see an ACTUAL gameplay video, go to that second review at gametrailers.com link that I listed. THAT is what an actual game play video SHOULD look like, since so many of you Darkfall fans want to scream that we already have gameplay videos of Darkfall. If and when this new comprehensive video does release of Darkfall, maybe we can compare the video above for the AoC review to the new Darkfall video and compare. I mean since you fans want to keep comparing your vaporous game to an actual released game and call the released game trash and a hoax.

I hear alot about these huge promises and yet when I read the featurelist, I seem to find no features that haven't been done before in one way or another. Could you be bothered making a list ?
I don't see why ppl should be so sceptical because you as a customer will be (or should be) able to test the features before any cash is exchanged. Most hoaxes are aimed at getting cash, not crushing MMO dreams.
