    Default Darkfall is just that bad

    First the prior experience people had with it was more than negative. Then came the awful graphics and animation videos, tagging along videos showing how boring the PvP would be. Finally, it comes down to the community which is the worse i've ever seen.

    The community is obsessed with hating WoW and won't even recognize it's a very sucessful mmo. I loathe WoW and I can't argue it's a good quality MMO, even thought it's generic like hell. They're also obsessed with tagging ANYONE a kid and they make sure to mention it's an adult mmorpg. Fine, we get the picture but i'm pretty sure they're mostly 16 year old kids. They also **** the hell out of you if you rant about having no trial/Open Beta and expect you to buy the game without trying it, claiming Darkfail is in O.B because there's no NDA.

    Laughable, no? I'd very much like to give Darkfall a whirl since I loved Ultima when I was younger but damn, 50€ for another Age of Conan?

    Agree on the animations and community, which i hate too. There awful, every thread is full of spam and flame. But besides the animations the graphics are pretty decent. And pvp looks boring, but its quite the opposite when you play it.

    But why start this thread? There are still active darkfall threads, just post it there.

    That thread faded away to the top of page 2.
    Wich basicly means it's gone, because I think 5% of all people actually visit page 2.

    What i find laughable is its only 2 days to release supposedly and they havent even changed the webpage with prices etc etc who the hell would buy a game when the games homepage looks like crap.

    I know that nobody saw this fail comming, i meen it's not like people have been hyping it 10 years before it was out or anything, but expectations are just to high for the game to meet.

    ;/ @bold The thing about that is unlike the Peter Molyneux-induced Fable disappointment, they can continually upgrade the client until one day it actually does meet the expectations the dev team set. I love Darkfall, a good amount of things hinder my experience thus pissing me off, but what they have now is good and can get a lot better, and I believe they can do it.

    At least they're trying to do something different in this horribly misshapen, until recently seemingly concrete genre. ;o Amen.

    Umm doesn't this community hate WoW to? Why are you guys all of a sudden acting like its a new thing for people to bash WoW without any logical reason. I thought this was gonna be a review from someone who was actually playing the game . Why didn't you just post this in the other thread?

    They have a vendetta against WoW were nothing compared to their hatred of WoW.

    Darkfall would be good if it was released around the time they started advertising it. They just gave people too much time to start hyping the game and building up expectations that would end up wrecked in the end when they notice the game's not what they hoped for (this would be a p2p DECO then?).

    The FPS mode and such sure makes the game interesting, but still... skipping open betas and launching a retail version right away it's just a no-no.

    Should as well rename it to Darkfail?

    Well, that's too bad, I had high hopes for this game.

    Or are people just criticizing too quick?
