This game is no better than what Dark and Light was...
A big empty world.. basically featureless game... beyond a simplistic rudimentary hack and slash combat system, bad crafting syste, and some mounts... and totally untested to boot...
within 4 weeks tops this will be a Ghost town..
Darkfall and light.

What does it even matter to you? Doesn't sound like you are too disappointed, so why bother stating your prediction, as what happens to the game has no impact on you.
Question: How many WoW players does it take to screw in a light bulb?
Answer: 0, Blizzard does it for them.
Guess i'll be playing Darkfall alone then Fine by me=)
I honestly laughed. Darkfall is not comparable to DnL. If you actually PLAYED DnL and Darkfall, you would know this.

Your observations are spot on. However for some un known reason it seems to appeal to a handful of 'hard core' pleayers (personally I can't see how they can ignore the blatant warts). So in short it will end up a niche game (as many have sadi) in the mold of SB D&L et al. The tech side isn't to bad. what will determine long term success (as a niche game) will be how quickly they iron the kinks out of the game systems. As it stands its paradise for macroers hackers and sploiters. As a competative game they need to level the playing field and sharpen up the gameplay pdq. Well, once the chasm between those that have cheated and those that havent is not closeable, they are screwed. That only gives them a week or two unless they have the balls to roll back.
love it how the fanboys say who cares aslong as were the ones having fun but when the game only got less then 20k at launch its a failure and they wont have the money to do any major things apart from tiny boring content then youl whine about how theres nothing to do blabla the typical stuff you people talk about lol or im worried where is everyone threads? your failure is now complete darkfall youl joined the failed side
I was a SoG DnL pre roder.. and this game is no better than Dark and light.... it might have a few more features.. who knows where... but it's basically no better in terms of quality and features..
You guys still up and bitching about the game launching?
So after 4 weeks and there are even more people playing it, what will you start to cry about next? What the hell are you hanging around the forums for anyways? Its like you take the existence of the game personally or something. Its really pathetic to be honest.
What drives you to come here poppets?

There bin already hundredrs of these topics made why you feel the need to make another im almost positive you dont even have played game yet you just write things down you have read from others.
Yes this game will stay nich and also some part there own fault it will stay even more nich then it should be, but if they manage to survive on maybe 3 servers evenetually i think they will not barren there are not many options out there plus pvp can be fun and build a city.
To be more complete will take at least a year yes, but there a indie company and they need first some money.
Ive played DnL and darkfall world looks 1000x looking better and is superior if it comes to lag and smooth stable running.
They just need more content sound improvement stop macroing improve AI better craft system.
Games played:AC1-Darktide'99-2000-AC2-Darktide/dawnsong2003-2005,Lineage2-2005-2006 and now Darkfall-2009.....
In between WoW few months AoC few months and some f2p also all very short few weeks.

In what aspect is it better than Dark and Light?
Dark and Light's client was more or less stable. The crafting worked but sucked, the pvp/sieges worked (but where completely unbalanced in favor of the ranged classes), there were mob spawns scattered across the world and there were some scarce killquests...
What I hear, not here on the boards, but when talking to trusted guildies that I 've been playing with for years, is that it very much resembles the initial concept of dark and light; and, at least at the moment, shows the same weaknesses, first and foremost exploitability, grindy character building and lack of basic, soloable PvE content (like missions in EvE, or random-killspawns in early SWG)
M
you do know that Darkfall didnt plan to have this many players? It's waay to much players already, so, shoo!
I was a SoG DnL pre roder.. and this game is no better than Dark and light.... it might have a few more features.. who knows where... but it's basically no better in terms of quality and features..
You're lieing out your ass, then. Darkfall functions on levels DnL STILL hasn't sorted out.

The EIGHT years they already had wasn't enough? Seriously?
Whether or not DnL and DFO are comparable, if the DFO devs consistantly improve the game without breaking things each patch, the game will get better.
Who knows? Maybe they will end up with what DnL was supposed to be.
and never will, servers are terminally down
Actually probably true considering they started dev 7 years ago, when 100k subcribers was a "successfull mainstream MMO"
But i would say they have not been telling their more recent investors that
I need a new MMO world to call home as Tom Chilton keeps destroying them
