I just posted this post in their forum and it got deleted after around 30 sec of being posted. I already wondered why I didn't read much bad feedback on their forums, but now I know why. They have moderators who instantly remove all really bad posts - and they need to do so in order to get their preorders together...
I am sorry to tell you guys but I played this game in Beta and its a shame to release something in that shape and you can be 100% that this game will not succeed in the long run, except for some die hard fans who don't care anything about animation or quality...
Just for reference what I posted in their forum:
--------------
OMG how in the world can you released this game yet... the game is not only in a very bad condition interface/control wise (its really horrible for newcomers) and also the animations and char customisation is really worse.
I mean surely people who dont care about graphic may play it anyway but what I realized during the beta is that this games comes nowwhere near the hype.
As far as I loved UO and skill based sandbox games, I can't play DF in the current state, its just not feasable... so yeah you have another guy less in the queue... but I will include most people who havent played yet there too.
Now that you made finally the game into a ALPHA (maybe beginning BETA) condition why throw it on the market and why not waiting to really finish it? Now that all thought it is vaporware anyway why rush it out now?
Sorry but this game in its current state is only for diehard people who dont care a bit about character quality or animations...
Good luck Aventurine, I am out...

You could of expressed your disappointment in a better way. Need more arguments and more constructive criticism, not just "This game is bad".
I am the type of player where I like to do everything and anything from time to time.

Meh, all you posted was a rant and you wonder why it got deleted? Also maybe they are running out of funds and have to release now or never...
Well but its basically all you can say... I am not the one who usually judges fast without arguments... but where shall I start...
Just remember some games like Horizons or Mourning?
First you enter the world, the chars looks horrible in my eyes... and to get into the control and really bad interface you need another afford - No usual FPS control where you can do the VERY basic controls easily (just wait and see yourselve).
So for me every immersion was lost because it looks so half finished I really can't comment, try it yourselve and you instantly know what I mean. And the fact that they instantly delete bad criticsm on their forum - I was alraedy like WHAT no really bad posts there, that IS NOT possible after the lift of the NDA - but now I know why... and thats really a bad way to try to get out their preorders...
I wish them good luck though, they will need it.

I'm not sure if you are correct about the moderators removing all negative posts, look at these two on the front page, pretty damning stuff, and not locked or deleted.
Any Beta Testers *Not* Like What They See?
Darkfall is the most frustrating game i have ever played
Well for this game those posts are nowhere near as bad as the game itselve... but deleting my post after 30 secs of posting... just told me what this hype now is about...
Just try the game out yourselve and be fast guys... because if you dont preorder now, you may have to wait a few days till they extend their capacity (ridiculous)... really this strategy is laughable at its best...
Kind regards,

Oh boy you gotta love the DF community. The first two replies in response to "Darkfall is the most frustrating game I have ever played." were:
"Carebear NDA has been lifted today and there already some people QQing LOLZ"
and
"Go play WoW."
Did you read all of the beta tester feedback in those threads?, please explain how their impressions of the game could be any worse or more of a disappointment to people who believed the hype coming from Tasos and Co over the last 6 years.
Problem is we can't try the game out for ourselves, we have to preorder it for 50 euros, so please do explain why you think this game is not ready for release so you can help people make an informed purchase decision.
You posted a rant that could have easily been summed up as:
I don't like the graphics or animation, I'm not going to play.
Why are you suprised?
And now everybody knows why ur post was deleted.
Also "bad criticsm" SHOULD be deleted, GOOD criticsm is helpfull.
-Darkstar
Well then try it out yourselve and sadly you have to give them 50€ for that... !
But after you tried it come back here and maybe you will find a better way to describe this game... - all I can say is the whole game feels like crap - I can't even back this up - I can only say it was bugged, the controls was horrid, the interaction with the world or enemies was a mess too... I don't know where to begin really...
Sorry I may sound rude... but if you know my other posts I am not someone who judges another game and trashs it in any way - its basically just the way on how they try now to get their subscriptions and the way on how fast they suddenly want to release this...

Not surpriced you're post were gone in 30 seconds cause it's all exaggarations and lies.
I dont believe you played beta. You're just trolling.
Did'nt you read the poll over at beta forum where 95% of the beta testers will continue to play Darkfall on release? That's not a failure. That's amazing.
Myself and all the rest of my clan is really looking forward to play Darkfall on release and we sure enjoyed our beta immensely.
Havent played a beta as stable as Darkfalls, didnt crash once.
Graphics is if you ask me very nice. Animations is more then tolerable.
Gameplay is superior to any other MMO out there.
I see you're waiting for Aion, well that says it all.
You're just another carebear that want Darkfall to fail cause it's not a game of your taste.

Sorry but now I wonder if you have ever played the game or you are from their company?... I have played it thats all I can assure you (just look at all my other posts, I have alraedy played and tested MANY different MMOs out there) ...
But maybe you are right and my views about bad control, horrid gameplay and animations etc. are completly different from the others... - sorry but I don't think so...
Maybe best is to make yourselve a judgement... I am really curious on what you guys will tell us then once you have played it yourselve... be prepared for a very interesting 25th February -
This story totally remembers me to the launch of Mourning or Horizons - even though I think they were in better shape

Hello Mr Darkfall developer.
Go work on your shitty failed game and gtfo.
Im no developer.
Just a guy that enjoyed the next good fantasy sandbox.
Beta was awsome.
Isnt it good to know that there is something else to play in the MMO genre then the shitty carebear themepark games.
Darkfall FTW.
Yes it is good to know that we now have another sh*ty griefy grindy exploity "sandbox" game that we can all pre order for 50 Euros soon that we might be able to play on the 25th instead.

Your "views" as u put it, is formulated in an incohorent vague mass of drivel.
Suddenly u mention gameplay, u never did before, all u did was rant something, something, something, animations, something, graphics...
Its hard to pick out, and that is why ur "post" was deleted.
Ur intentions MIGHT have been to help the game improve, but it certainly doesnt look that way.

Prove me wrong then?
Here is a screenie of me playing beta -
So i was in beta.
You're opinions is of someone that read other previews and decised to make one yourself.
Didnt you read the poll over at beta forum where 95% of the beta testers will buy the game and play it on release?
Thats not a failure for any game in beta, thats a huge success.
Either you're one of the 5% or your just on a Darkfall trash campaign.
So gimme a screenie of you playing Darkfall beta.
Have a nice day

niether of them 2 games where close
Dont buy it then.
Noone is forcing you.
95% of the beta testers liked it though and will continue to play the game on release.
That isnt another sh*ty griefy grindy exploity "sandbox" game if you asked me.
95% will buy it, taste that.
Youre just making up alot of crap based on nothing.
I was in beta and you werent, got it?
sorry but your post was not at all constructive
It sounded like mad person rambling.
Were you a beta tester have to played the game
If yes NDA is lifted show some screens shots ,some explanation why , how and where it fails
Well, like others have said. Even if your points are valid, your delivery is lacking.
Which unfortunately makes it come across as a rant.
Personally, I would have deleted it and asked you to repost in a more constructive manner(dependant upon your posting history).
But hey, some moderators are not very moderate.
Sorry
DarkFall FAQ - Read then Question with Boldness
You know things have got to the worst point when every mmo gamer thinks that every mmo should cater to their style of play and their's alone. DF will not be for everyone. Please repeat that a hundred times until it sinks in deep.
DF will be hard, it will be aggressive and have very little tolerance for people that want a game that is on easy mode. DF is what it is and all the information that is now being released due to the NDA being lifted, should guide anyone to either wanting to play or not.
There is no reason to go to any forum and bash a game because it is something totally differant than what was expected. DF was an easy target for anyone that had reservations about it actaully being released. Now that has passed and the feb 25 looks like it is locked, the bitching and moaning should cease to exist.
Remember this, All games are not created equal. The most anyone can do is try it out for themselves and see if it's for them. Don't take what othe people say as the gospel. If you do then you will have nobody to blame but yourself.
This type of bashing will have to be endured on any game that is created or will be created in the sandbox system, due to the easy instant gratification mmo's that have littered the mmo genre for some yrs. now.
Your post makes it seem like you are not in beta (LOL beginning beta). No specifics, no reasons, just that "the game sucks". Oh and by the way a tread for what beta testers dont like has been up for over 15 hours now, why are they not deleting that?
Glad you are not playing DF, not everyone can handle it.
Actually the "Any Beta Testers..." link was very interesting to read... Im only halfway through it and theres some pretty well constructed posts with heavy criticism in there. Well worth reading in my opinion.
