    Default Eurogamer finally posts Darkfall re-review, game now 4/10

    There was a little drama earlier when Eurogamer posted a 2/10 review for Darkfall. The devs fired back and claimed that the reviewer had only spent a few hours playing the game, mostly in character customization and the beginner levels, and not the 9+ hours he claimed to play.

    Well, Eurogamer promised them a new review. And the score was 4/10. Lulz

    Ouch 4/10... dang. The game looked better then that.. at least a 5 if they're going to maintain P2P status. I'm going to read now.

    Wow that was a really good review. A story even. Hmm.. well.. I'm never playing Darkfall. Lol.
    I was hoping it would somewhat be like an Shadowbane experience. Obviously not from that review.

    Brilliant review.

    Thats just hilarious. Darkfall should have kept their mouths shut because it being re-reviewed and still being under 5 is worst than it being reviewed once and being a 2.

    Everyone at Onrpg except that Powster dude knows this game is terrible.

    I found that review actually fairly enjoyable to read.

    Indeed was well made. But I think a 5/10 would have been better.

    The game is still ****, no matter how much it's suger coated, and it only deserves a 0/10, but I think that's still to high.

    0.01/10 That better? DF will shut down soon probably.

    But you have to admit, the ideas were good for DF! Full PvP, and full loot drops. It just sounded so awesome, but then when it came out, it failed big time.

    It should go free to play before shutting down. What I'd like to know is how come TR didn't go free to play before shutting down? Maybe because, the developers cost was so high? >

    It wont go F2P and it wont close down. Why? Because their developers know that they will earn enough money out of it from the players it has. It probably has 500 players at peak 500x50 for the initial purchase and then a subscription fee.

    I dont need to remind you how single-minded the gamers in their forums are. They aint going anywhere for a while.

    It has more than 500 players, I'd say about 7k+ since the server has a 10k limit.

    Just so you know, 0.01/10 is higher than 0/10 so... I don't know what you were trying to do.

    I believe that title is being reserved for CrimeCraft if they decide to make that game P2P

    crimecraft is going to fail, but it's just an ordinary fps.
