Prove to me a bunch of developers were playing it ingame. Prove it. And just dont say "well, you saw the 20 minute video!!" Ive seen a lot of 20 minute videos of video games that never came to be. Here's one example http://feature.mmosite.com/ageofmourning/
Hey Enigma, I typically agree with your philosophy and ideas, but I'm wondering why you think they'd go to all this trouble to make vaporware. It just doesn't seem logical. On a side note, I'll be happy if Darkfall delivers without great graphics. Graphics are just eye-candy to me and quickly fall by the wayside. Normally I would typicall agree with you, but this game screame Mourning, Age of Mourning, Realms of Torment to me. They even came out with a beta, used the same publisher Darkfall is using and then at the last minute, the company pulled the plug, took the monies and left. You should google it. Hell even do a search for it here at mmorpg.com. Theres a 400 page thread on this company and everyone who loved the game was saying the SAME EXACT THING as those who like Darkfall is saying. In the end, those loyal fans of Mourning lost out of 60 bucks and the owner laughed all the way to the bank. Colton Burgess was his name http://www.ripoffreport.com/reports/0/269/RipOff0269325.htm http://www.tentonhammer.com/node/4002 http://www.shacknews.com/extras/2006/081506_thronesofchaos_1.x Guy took off with all the money and now has a healthy piece of property in Hawaii |

i've see, the trailer and it looks good this game has potential I don't understand why there are people who say this game will be a joke.. I'm not a fanboy, I even don't think I will ever play this game But I have to admit it looks good! and I don't think this is vaporware |

You need to get off your lazy a**, get into beta and prove it to yourself. |

One thing comes to mind.. Suck it! |
I couldn't put that any better. The video was scripted it is obvious it looks more like a in-game cinematic then game play by far. I'd like to see game elements, because a game isn't a game without core elements in which we seen none. |

Like I said, a beta does not mean that the game is not vaporware. Read what I said in a few posts up. |

Anyhow. Having a beta doesn't prove it is VW either. Right ? Who has the right to demand proof ? You or me ? You have no proof whatsoever it's VW. Should I demand it from you ? |

So now it's bad for the company to listen their fanbase? Sure, go have fun with Sony Online Entertainment, then. A dev talk for 30sec-1min? Just go read all of the Warcry Darkfall journals, I bet they cover over two hours of dev speak. If they actually have a 30 sec dev talk, you'd be whining for a long game play vid, right?
To be honest Aventurine have a Dev plan and the Beta and Video wer on that plan. Trying to make out it was the community that caused them to produce it is rubbish. That said when they get to the point where they can show more they have done and that always happens on the Official Site. Well done Aventurine and the DF Dev team lets now roll onto the Open Beta. |
