Although a self confessed fanboi, I will not be buying DFO.
I have read all the reviews and the game looks horrible. I was hoping for Mount & Blade online but it seems Darkfall has fallen short of most fanboi's hopes.
The problems don't appear to be cosmetic but fundemental design flaws. When EVE launched in 2003 it was a shell of what it is now but the game was still fundementally fun as the core system was well designed. This does not appear to be the case with Darkfall. It appears the key processes and systems are shallow, poorly thought out and essentially boring.
What will I do now? Give up on MMORPG's. The glory days have gone..........
Bullshit. I have beta tested for 2 weeks and I love the game. If I were not in class id be playing it right now. Almost everyone in beta loves the game, and most of the reviews have been positive. But you were never going to play now were you?
All weapons are the same and do the same damage!!! All the skills are essentially the same. It is a massive skill grind. Crafting is boring beyind belief. There is no player economy and only 3 resouces?. Combat is about potions not skill and appears tedious and repetative. So much for an oblivion style FPS combat experince. Seiging is broken. The interface and chat looks appauling.
All in all it seems you have not experienced the game for yourself and have listened to others and made you own conclusions. That is fine and I wish you well, but don't try and pnader this bs to me seeing as how I know for a fact you are incorrect on almost all of your points.
I find that description very accurate and im in beta since a month, you can like or dislike the game but they need to work on some issues that can be game breaking to some of us, i for example wont buy the game because the mele combat system, its just a LBM click fest in my opinion.
Well i've actually tried the game in beta for almost 3 weeks and for me the game is not a massive fail and i will buy it.
"The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands, To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming! On we sweep with threshing oar, our only goal will be the western shore."
Yes, the click fest is annoying. I don't think it is a failure but it's not as great as I thought it would be. I think there will be plenty of people who get into it. As someone who followed it for years, I expected a little more. So yes, my view is probably tainted by my expectations. I was looking for more of a UO type experience with depth. Whether you like this game or not, you can't say that it is a deep game.
Maybe just focusing on PvP rapid clicking and doing nothing else is what gets you going. I've been PvPing for years and see some real potential in this game but right now I am not interested. Testing it was not AWFUL but it wasn't amazing either. I won't be pre-ordering. I'm going to give it some time to mature and see how it goes down. I'm open to the idea of playing it in the future.
Is it a failure or is it amazing? The truth will be in the middle for most people. On the other hand, if you were looking for some kind of deep environment with all kinds of gameplay aspects, yes, it is a failure in its current form. If you're looking to rapid click pvp all day then it is a smashing success.
