    Darkfall definetly deserves this. Congratulations!
    Even if you are not a fan of sandbox games you must realize how this is so much different from the cookie cutter mold the rest of the gaming industry is using. And be glad that there are companies out there trying to create something different even if you are not sure you will like it. This is an essentially a indie company and does not have the resources that players are used to in other main stream titles so cut them some slack.
    Also I find it odd that the first few posts are not even darkfall fans but trolls just complaining about what  amounts to nothing.

     

    Yes way to go DF now i cant wait till 2010 to actually play it.

    Congratulations Darkfall, well deserved for having the courage to try something other than the standard eq style game.

    As a Darkfall fan, I have to say that I'm not really surprised by this award, but I am very happy nonetheless.
    Very excited, with it being this close to release and all.

    It is kinda an unfair thing to vote about.

    The next upcomming big game will win it automaticly, if the vote would have been 2 weeks before WAR came out everyone would have voted WAR.

    I still think DF will be intresting to test but get me right, I am not against DF but think the whole vote is kinda silly, we allways wait for the next game, we don't anticipate a game that is further away in the future but focus on the next one.

    I am fairly new to the Darkfall scene but I am very excited about the release of this game.

    this is NOT DnL over again. What it is is a troll's dream. Some people need to play more games and talk a less about games.....they are a scourge to the community after a certain point.

     

    Darkfall will succeed.

    this really shows you that a lot of people check out the site and express their feelings without sitting on the DF forums and listen to the BS all day

    Remember Old School Ultima Online

    Easy winner.

    And also this is just more proof that Darkfall, despite what you trolls think, is doing an amazing job pre-release.  Instead of focusing money and time on marketing, they are developing the game.

    Sorry you can't insult it...with little to no marketing, it has won the Most Anticipated Game award.

    LOL @ trolls.

    See you in game on January 22nd, 2009.

    Well, I have no intentions at all at playing Darkfall and I voted it as the most anticipated game because I feel it "is" the most anticipated game.

    It's perfectly feasible for players to look at these polls and vote with their head and not with their heart.

    "Darkfall definetly deserves this" huh? The game is ... so they say launching very soon so its nothing more then "Known to be about to arrive". Sorry thats all it won.

    Whats going to be sad is coming back after about 1month to wonder where all the FANS went and why are they not NOW sticking up for their game. Same thing happen with AoC, War..

    good games will market themselves.
     
    go darkfall!



     

    Thats spot on.

    Well done and a well deserved number one spot Aventurine.

    good point.

    Im clearly a big fan of the game, but i also have lots of friends who I have gamed with over the years who absolutly despise PVP, but still agree that DF is the most anticipated and talked about game in development right now.

    Some people just cant man up and admit they were wrong about it being vaporware.

  • WOWthatsucksWOWthatsucks Member Posts: 164

    well on the 22nd... they need to shit or get off the pot

  • MyPreciousssMyPreciousss Member Posts: 427

    So what reward is Darkfail getting for this title?

    A thermos flask or a vacuum bottle full of vapor?

  • RekindleRekindle Member UncommonPosts: 1,206

    no, they get the 'finally not another wow clone' trophy.

    Yeah, face it...everyone wants to know if this game can live up to its promise...even if they don't want to play.
     



     

    Exactly just like half the people that poo-pooed WOW (myself included) were at least curious enough to try it. If Darkfall turns out to be a great title they'll come around.

    Which is why a game like Star Wars: TOR didn't win. Well, wait, if it was on the list !

    --------------------------------------
    A human and an Elf get captured by Skaven. The rat-men are getting ready to shoot the first hostage with Dwarf-made guns when he yells, "Earthquake!" The naturally nervous Skaven run and hide from the imaginary threat. He escapes. The Skaven regroup and bring out the Elf. Being very smart, the Elf has figured out what to do. When the Skaven get ready to shoot, the Elf, in order to scare them, yells, "Fire!"

    Just because it’s talked about, doesn’t mean people like it.

    Technically, it’s safer to say the opposite is true. I would say the majority of its anticipation comes from people wanting to watch the Train wreck and discussing how they are implementing every failed/broken/exploitable/grief able system from ancient times when mmo’s were new, Games that had already removed them decades ago, as features.

    Tran wreck; true or not, we will see in 10 days.

     I'm excited about DF being released...assuming it is...so I can read all the forums, either way.  I need to make sure I'm stocked up on popcorn.
