I was totally finished posting here, but now simply doing Bataille a favor and bumping this so he can easily find it per his reference on the official MO forum.
Have a good day. -CC

Original Post:
Look guys - We all know the "vision" of sand and such for MO. We also know the state of the game. DFO over shadows MO with content and simply the ability to play dramatically. You can prefer the "vision" of MO and that's great, but comparing the games as of today is ludicrous. There are hundreds of DFO videos made by players that reflect a full and complete game that is still evolving. I can't find one single video of MO, let alone my own in-game experience that is even remotely what I'd consider a comparison. MO is in Alpha/Beta at best. I've played alpha/beta's I've enjoyed, just not willing this time around to pay for it. More power to those who are and hope the end justifies the means; if it does, we all win.
Good luck. -Gratus

Perhaps. However, consider how the post would be treated on the Darkfall forums if the exact same post were made with DFO and MO swapped.

Since you asked to consider, I'll tell you with a good deal of certainty that such a thread on the DF forum would have been closed once it went the way that one did very quickly. The thread created by some new guy asking questions on July 13th is still there and the most active thread on the public forum. SV didn't have any problems when people posted "DFO is Crap" (see post #27) or post #24 "my verdict of DFO is 2/10". Those posts SV loves, but when the shoe is on the other foot and in fact what I wrote above is honest, the post gets deleted.
By Post #83 I'm amazed the thread isn't closed already and I post the following:
"Gentleman - I didn't create this absurd thread or fuel its life. However, given it was made and so many want to jump on a "Another Game vs This Official Forum Game" wagon...
You want to talk "community"? At least I don't see any MO threads at the DFO site. We don't need to prop up DFO by bashing MO. Walk the talk folks."
Never-the-less SV allows the thread to continue and in the face of so much misinformation and silly board warrioring PR I posted my honest opinion having played MO at release and as we know, it was deleted while every over the top MO owns DFO posts remain intact.
Now that thread is 6-pages with 206 posts.
You asked for consideration of how that thread would have been treated on the Darkfall forums. My answer is it would have been closed early as one would anticipate as a responsible reaction to where such a thread is destined to go.
Take care -CC

Totally agree, both games suffer from the same "rabbid fanboys" and "rabbid devs" syndrome.
And I can't help thinking of Aventurine's lead dev raging on the DFO forums after Eurogame gave it a 2/10.
The same would probably happen with Henrik if MO ever gets an official review

Thanks. That was weird. Could just be me too, For some reason the song "If 6 was 9" by Hendrix just popped in to my head.
EDIT: Ah, just figured it out. They moved it from the general discussion board to the community section of the forum for some reason.
