22 Responses to DarkFall 2 is actually going to happen?
Can someone explain what there is to be excited about? They literally announced nothing with this “announcement.” The key features on the page are cut-and-paste DF1.0. The only tantalizing bits they could drop are the possibility of a land reset and that sieges are being reworked. That will do nothing to get new people into the game and is a severe disappointment of a re-release.
At the time I hated it, and when I went back later I couldn’t justifying wading through my disappointment at the execution because I was a) playing Mortal and b) I knew this was coming (albeit I thought DF2 would be sooner).
I may be going blind and/or deaf, but… where did they announce a date? I couldn’t find any indication of an imminent launch other than “it’s in a very playable state”.
Unless this seriously adds some additional content to flesh out the sandbox it will suffer the same fate as 1.0. There will be a flood of players for maybe a year then the eventual decline to only the remaining PVPers.
Whoohoo! I hope it gets a critical mass.
Over/under on Nov 20?
0.0 chance of Nov 20 being the launch day. I’d take the over that by Nov 20th the beta starts.
So it’s nice that he comes out and talks about their motivation in “creating a new game” ie Darkfall 2010?
WTF…
I have no trust in the Darkfall devs not to turn around and do EXACTLY the same thing.
They have learned nothing about how to do sandbox “expansions” and updates ie slow trickle of features and updates.
I have no trust they wouldn’t do exactly the same thing again.
^ mad bro

Release date for one (that I’d be shocked if they stick to)
Also the end of beta (DF1) and the full release (Unholy War) is coming. Think of it that way, and it’s far more exciting and realistic.
Apparently Tobold thinks it’s Friday.
Blogging is hard?

Very much looking forward to it.
Here’s hoping this might be the Mount&Blade MMO I’ve been waiting for.
Did you play the original iteration? If you haven’t, check it out. It’s pretty good! I’m wondering if they will do a skill wipe on the reboot, though.
Darn autofill! ;-)
This is a new game, so nothing carries over from DF1.
I did.

And why isn’t there a freakin’ search box on your blog? I wanted some EuroGamer quotes!
I had one, not sure why I removed it.
Darkfall peeps sent me an email to tell me, I never even played the game. The only thing I know about Darkfall is from you. LOL!

Same old shit graphics by the looks of it
