    This is the sort of twisted logic that people use to justify all sorts of weird and wonderful beliefs without providing any empirical evidence to support them like ghosts, big foot, the loch ness monster, flying saucers, alien abductions, or endless conspiracy theories about 911, JFK or NASA.

    Considering believing in Aventurine and Darkfall at this time appears to be something quite similar to the previously mentioned examples at this time.

    Its not surprising someone would attempt to use the same twisted logic when attempting to defend Aventurine and there continued apparent inability to provide any substantial evidence to support their extraordinary claims.

    This post has been brought to you in association with the church of the flying spaghetti monster, Russell’s Celestial Teapot society and the holy order of the Invisible Pink Unicorn.

    I usually agree with you posts but here I must disagree. I believe the human race is incredibly close-minded and ingorant to the truth of the universe and planes of existence around us. We can't even percieve the majority of our own universe including the layers right in front of our face.

    There is much out there that we cannot prove and comprehend and as such we have no proof for it. That doesnt mean it isnt out there. Can you prove to me that you didnt daydream about megan fox today??

    Not saying darkfall is one of these great mysteries just saying i dont think that quote is as twisted as you think, thinking we know alot about our world, THATS twisted...

     I don't think AoC, War or even WoW had this volume of buzz surrounding it before it launched. More people have heard of Darkfall than AoC and War combined!

    Now you are just making stuff up.  In fact, there are far more gamers who've never heard of DF, vs AOC or WAR. 

    Its OK to support a game, but please keep in the realm of plausibility.

    And as another poster said, if this isn't the greatest sandbox game ever created its going to be cruicified.

    But I'm starting to think that same fate awaits all new releases, we gamers are a hard bunch to please.

     

    
    I have to agree with you. People think darkfall has all this publicity. The buzz around my office is WAR, a little buzz about AOC but everyone is all about WAR (carebears)

    I bring up darkfall, I can honestly say not ONE person I have mentioned to has heard it. It might have a buzz around mmorg.com and a negative buzz at that, but how many mmorpg players really come to this site??

    Darkfall is too unheard of and too niche to have people filling up thier servers on day 1, that next to the people who just plain gave up waiting or lost interest due to bad publicity (which does exist)

    If darkfall come out and is in the vicinity of being what it promises to be, I will be there to stay, but lets not be a fanboy about it and think this game is the one mmo to rule all............

    correction...before it releases...EVER

     

    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.

     

    You'd be suprised the Perseverance of a Fanboy

  • As much of a fan as I am of the Idea of Darkfall, I think you'd be a fool not to listen to what polarization is saying.

    I just can't seem to think of a good reason for them to keep everything so hush hush. I hear excuses like they're too busy (right), they want us to discover the world (right) and so on and so forth from the fanboi's but the logical thing to do at this level would be to promote.

    I dont know maybe it's just me and I dont understand how to run a business but try as I may I cant find a good reason to handle this the way aventurine is handling it

    "If Duke Nukem Forever does actually see the light of day--which may surprise its creators as much as anyone else--its role of whipping boy in the world of tech snarkiness might be filled by Darkfall, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) in development for almost seven years ... so far."

    More and more of the major computer and gaming sites are taking shots at Darkfall. I wonder which site will be next? Maybe I should e-mail a copy to Tasos for a laugh.

    
    Wow, someone REALLY needs to leave his basement...........
