I wondered this myself actually. I am an anime fan and got excited to see this games look and feel. It looks pretty different from other games. But what does turn me off is it all seems geared toward eventual PVP and large scale battles. Anyone else see it this way? If you are looking for that race war type game then fine, but I like the small party exploring the world type game with a small amount of PVP. Maybe RF fits this category as well but the website does not explain the overall goal of the game that great.
Looks great - can be machines, call spirits, drive mechs but to what end?

Yes as the other posters have asked, I too would really like to know if this game is any good? I've played plenty of MMO's that have awesome graphics, yet lack in content. It seems that if a game is going to work on fantastic visuals, they forget all about the playability and longevity of the game.
So, anyone able to give us some feedback on this question?
Well hate to say it but if you don't like pvp then this game might not be for you. The way i understand it is yes the are small epic pve type thangs to do, but the main goal is to rule the mines witch are done with wars ever 8 hours. It's a RvRvR game pvp is wht it is all about.
I cou;d be wrong but this is my understanding of it.

So you haven't actually played the game yourself yet? That's cool. At least someone added what they think of the game.
Sounds a bit like DAoC then with the RvR aspect. Three rhelms and all three fight against each other... I actually liked that part of DAoC. However, unless you were in "contested" territory, there was no PvP/RvR to worry about (unless you played on a full PvP server). So, is there enough space to do PvE on RF?
Any further information would be greatly appreciated!
No I have not played the game yet but I have done mass amounts of reading on it. From every thing I have read yes you can do PVE and yes there are epic events that you can do, but only within your race. (inless you work somthing out not to attach the other race why doing the raid. The game play is like L2, but with a twist. The way you level there is nothing like it. at least that I have seen. Max lvl is 50, But your skills, combat, and defence level on there own or as you use them. I hope I have helped answer your questions. let me know if you need help with info I have some good links. Most coming from this site.

There's a nice discussion about it going on at the official forums about this, I learned a lot from it
