Sorry I found this funny. Some genius thought Funcom was talkin smack about Darkfall when he mentioned Dreamfall, then realized Funcom has a game called Dreamfall

That was funny : )

But Forumfall is one of the best communitys ever. If you want to laugh, read news or get your ass kicked...its the place to visit.

Ohh, and its also about Darkfall .

I smell more trademark problems for Aventurine.

They still can't get Darkfall trademarked in the USA and they've been trying since 2003.

Mark (words only): DARKFALL

Current Status: Further action on the application has been suspended.

2008-03-18 - Report Completed Suspension Check Case Still Suspended

Current Status: Registered.

Funcoms is already through and registered and there's no way the trademark attorneys would ever allow such a similar wording to be used in the exact same market / industry.

Huh? Some random guy though a comment about Dreamfall from a Funcom staff was about Darkfall. And hes getting flamed about the mistake. A very funny read tho

Oh, and Dreamfall is two great games. Try them if you haven't.

Kind of funny how everyone in that forum is bashing Funcom and AoC.

I guess when you've been waiting 7 years there's nothing else to talk about..

Has been like this since 2005 when a Funcom dev trolled DFs forum. And the majority that trolls DF in major are from AoC fanbase. Guess that's why.

My spot in the middle is very comfy  

That was funny.

As far as Darkfall "players" bashing AoC... I couldn't help but notice that during the first day of the AoC PvP event, the Darkfall forum was very quiet.

So? I play AoC myself, tho I don't think it's depend on AoCs beta. I don't enjoy it so much, but I will give it a chance after release. But I don't have many options. A little EVE and Entropia, EQ somethimes just to talk with the guildies.

I dont bash AOC cuz I'm bored. While I'd love to play a game like Darkfall, I feel you'd have to be incredibly close minded to not have some concerns on how the whole DF project is going. Just too many red flags not to take notice, but dont get me wrong I AM a DF supporter...

I bash AOC cuz it sucks. More same ol same ol kiddie ezmode stuff. Doesnt anyone want to play a game where it takes skill to be good? and not just time spent?? This generation is so weak and watered down it's sad. It's not even just mmo's ALL games are made to be beaten. I remember a mere 2 decades ago when games when TOUGH and beating them an accomplishment. Now if you can press A you can beat the game. This just carries over into the mmo world where every game, WOW, AOC, WAR, are made for the moronic masses who just wanna be UBER and not work for it

Darkfall promises something else, a challenge, a call to those who wish to truly test thier gaming skill.

Alas Darkfall may never deliver )=

I don´t agree with your opinion about the easy mode modell.

Theres no problem with that, let there be easy

ways to play.

What i miss is a proper scaling in diffculty to reward.

either its *easy and mildly rewarding*

or *impossible to do alone and rewarding*

Lotro (sorry to bring that up) had some quests

where you could definitly succeed as a good player but would fail over and over as  a poor player. As groups and solo.

To many games wheres either a bore or a fail.

I agree with this to a point. I see most games today as being like a Donkey on a treadmill with a carrot dangling in front just within reach. The Donkey has to stretch a bit to get the carrot but it is still easily attainable. The problem is once the carrot is eaten it's immediately replaced by another and another and another and so forth. Your average Donkey (MMO Player) can only eat so many carrots before he gets to fat to care about the carrot anymore and leaves to find the next treadmill with apples instead of carrots. This repeats until the Donkey realizes that it isn't the prizes that gets boring it's the treadmill itself.

As for the topic I find this quite humorous as well but as previously stated this goes both ways. Remember not so long ago when an AoC fan went crazy in a blog post about a Darkfall dev journal that never directly attacked AoC by name once? Why these two fan bases can't seem to get alone mystifies me to no end as they are actually very different games and can coexist in the marketplace. AoC fans are those donkeys looking for the next treadmill and Darkfall fans are tired of the treadmill and are looking for something with a bit more to it than that.
