I seriously doubt that this game will see the light before the end of this year. And don't say that Tatos said it will be. He's been saying that for years. I do not trust his words. Solid proof will be much better and i'll eat my own words if it launches this year.

 

But until then..

To me, it all depends on what 2008 is.

LOL, will make for an interesting seven months, no doubt.

2008? Kidding, right?

I will be elected President of the United States before Darkfall releases in 2008. :)

With their "official 2008" comment on their dev journals, they bought themselves seven to 18 months of patience form their community.  I don't think people will stick around after that.  They've heard it too much before.

Release this year is not likely, IMO.  I have a feeling that we might see the "playtest", or whatever they want to call it, in 2008.  That will be a reality check for Aventurine.  My bet is that serious problems will be uncovered, and release delayed into 2009+. 

The wild card = money.  No company has unlimited funds, and by now, they have spent a ton.  If they are low on cash, they may release what they have, with promises for quick fixes post launch.

If they do have a successful launch in 2008 and meet expectations, then these guys are freaking awesome.  We should get them off games, and working on important "save the world" projects.

Satan is still toasty warm with no signs of a chill.

So, no. Darkfall will not release in 2008.
