This game has such great potential, such great ideas and such a wonderful concept.

It should not be wasted on a two bit company like this.

    i couldn't agree with this more.

    back on topic, Dark fall is my #1 most anticipated MMO next to Aion, which leaves me with a problem.

    niether feel like they're going anywhere to me, Aion doesn't even have an official site yet... i have to shift through fansites and play a guessing game... and because of this, i can partially agree with you.

    the other thing is that, this seems to be the only co. that is willing to stick their necks out to make such an innovative new game, i wouldn't trust this with any1 else. Maybe CCP, but it'll be a long-shot if it turns out well.

    P.S. i love CCP ^_~ just not sure what else they can do, they've only made a single game to my knowledge? which is great, but artistically and logistically, is nowhere near what dark fall is. the only thing that moves in eve are turrets and small dishes going 360 degrees.

    EvE rules, WoW sucks, Darkfall and Aion i hope will dominate both.

    I hope this guy wasnt implying that Dark Fall should be sold to SOE...

     

    Dark Fall is truely the only innnovative game coming out in the somewhat near future. Look at all the other games that are coming out. They follow the same logic code as almost every other game that has been....What I mean is this: Most games on the market and coming out in the near future are your standard PVP/PVE game. Most have limited housing options if any at all. Most do not have a dynamic player based economy. Most are level based not skill based. Most have the same character classes and races. Most of the higher end type games or deep pocket funded games are graphically intensive with content that is NPC driven. Now, thats not to say those other games (Vanguard, Conan, Star Trek, Warhammer) wont be a lot of fun...I'm sure they will be. But, coming from this old gamer, I've done all of that many times in the past.

    Everything that I desire in a game: Non-SOE product, Skill-Based, Dynamic player-based economy, craftable housing and towns, player driven quests and content are all going to be a part of Dark Fall.

    I've spent too much money in the past buying and paying a monthly subscription to games that are one dimensional. I long for a game that takes aspects of all the great games of past and rolls them into one.

    Bring it on Dark Fall! I'm eagerly waiting to give you some cash and start living again.

    The thing is, only small companies have the balls to produce something unique.

    Sell it to any larger company that might develop the game faster, with more money, and the whole game design might go out the window in favor of yet another basic MMOG which will appeal to a general audience of 8 year olds, grandmothers and any fool off the street with zero MMOG experience; solely with the intent to rake in as much dollars from the widest audience possible rather than producing an outstanding game.

    They started working on Darkfall allready in 1997 with the idea, maybe even before. This game is made BY gamers for gamers, the only reason why darkfall is still in development is because mmo's has gone the wrong way.



    All the other developer companies are so greedy and want to make it a big hit, the darkfall devs aint after that, they are after a dream no one else can do better then them.

    Alright alright alright, shake it shake it.

    If you followed the progression of Horizon's at all, before it became the PoS it turned out to be, you would understand WHY you don't want this to be picked up by some other company.  Another company might recognize it for the value it has as a game, but wouldn't necessarily follow the 'mission' of the game and would most likely butcher the hell out of it to get it out. 



    So then you have "Darkfall" but it's nothing like it was going to be.  Exactly what happened to Horizons.  So sure, it's taking a long time to happen, but I'd rather wait and have it done as intended, then rushed out by some company trying to make a quick buck in the MMO industry.

    So they can deliver us yet another EQ clone, released beta style....

    NO THANK YOU

  • NopexNopex Member Posts: 86
    Amen Amen Amen Amen Amen.



    I hope the devs of this game truly realise the loyal and desperate fanbase they will get from this game.



    We don't want or need another adventuring game split into PvP and PvE servers which inbalance game play.  UO managed it in the old days and Eve does it now.  Theres a gap on fantasy where Darkfall is on the track to filling and i honestly respect and admire the devs for creating a game they KNOW is wanted and not a quest for money in the now boring and uninspired MMO industry.



    Don't listen to some tit talking about selling to some bigger company who wouldn;t have had the balls to make the game in the first place.



    Good luck to you all. Honestly.



    PS - Give me a beta invite :P

    Well you can give it to a big company , and they might ruin it.

    Or you can have a small company like this release a total disaster of of game, ala Mourning, Dark and Light, Roma Victor, etc. If its ever released at all.

     

    I'll take my chances with the big company.

    A game like Darkfall could never be produced by any other type of company but one like it is now, people that just want to make the game they always wanted to play. Sony, Blizzard, EA Games etc would never dream of backing a game that is taking such a huge risk for a game aimed at a limited market.



    Personally I dream about Darkfall at night but I have no illusions that its a WoW killer or anything like that. I do believe however that it will be extremly succesful and might very well be among the top 5 games in the world. Developers are underestimating just how many people are waiting for UO2 or how many WoW players are sick of pointless skilless boring pvp without risks. I think that if the Darkfall team can pull this off you will have a lot of big companys like EA and Sony going, wtf that wasnt suppose to happen but dont expect them to take any real risks with games that could very well be the biggest thing to hit gaming for years.

    the thing is, MMO's, as well has gaming in general i suppose is still just coming out of infancy, MMO's being what 10 years old?

    If companies like SoE and Blizzard start to crank out huge #'s using truely terrible products, bland, monotanous etc. etc. and the next gen or 2 of MMO's that try to become unique fail, then that'll pretty much be it for MMO's.

    the surface is gelling, i wonder if some really innovative stuff will get in there, and show that games can be unique and make $ at the same time? otherwise MMOs will be like the rest of the products in today's society, comercialized, cheap, and produced en masse. VSoH imho has, done a bad job in respect to innovation, but there are still a few more games that can make the cut.

    although darkfall is terribly cool in concept, i do wish they would have choosen a different genre, the market is so heavily saturated with swords and dragons.
