with all the work that's going into this thing....i think this might be one of the top rpg's of all time. EQ & UO are goin out of style  somethin's gotta take the #1 seat.

Possibly

Well Darkfall doesn't look like a great game, but then again neither does EQ2. :P

I'm waiting for Dark and Light.

What is it that makes you like D&L. To me it sounded like nothing but fluff, with a bit of PvP added in the mix, but its only two sided so that kinda blows it for me.

I don't know if Darkfall is going to be better than EQ(which is one of my favourite games),
but i am sure that it's gonna be one of the best MMORPGs and of course one of my favourites!!!!!

While I think Darkfall is going to be a great game, if/when it releases, I find this amusing. Darkfall was thought to trump EQ  and UO, and WoW was not yet a thought. Amazing how things have developed.

Bad example, this is just one post by one apparently ignorant poster.  When this was posted, WoW was less than  6 months away, SWG had already been out for a year, and DAoC was going strong, and Eve, PS, CoH, FFXI and L2 were out as well.

During that time, EQ was the beast to beat. It was no so as much the number of subs, but the length of time it was out. It is always a bad idea to compare games of a different concept against each other like this, but it is persistantly done.

I found it quite humorous, the statement of the op, and laugh a little when I see it now said to beat WoW.

This game has been in development for quite a long time, which puts a lot of promise for the uniqueness, and more importantly, the refined state of this game. That is my other point in bringing this up. This might be a company listening to the public, and making sure that they get the best upon release.

The only downside to this, is how fast tech has changed since that time. It has probably already taken quite a toll on the developers, reworking scripts and codes for the new drivers and other assorted software/hardware. Keep on keeping on.

So for people wating for a new EQ, DF is a big failure, even on paper.  But for people that are interested in clan warfare, both on land and on sea with FFAPvP.....Darkfall could be a real winner!

Thats not true Daarco, I am waiting on Darkfall and EQ1 was the best MMORPG I have ever played.  I am your typical EQ1 audience and Darkfall looks amazing to me.

Waiting on CoS and Darkfall
