Darkfall
Game Description and Comments
Darkfall is a highly anticipated 3D MMORPG that has been in development for several years. This game has gamers excited because it should offer players nearly limitless freedom inside the game world. Characters do not have classes and there are no levels to grind in Darkfall. Instead, combat depends on a player's skill. Players can kill other players at any time and can loot all of the dead players' items. Nearly any item can be crafted in the game as well as houses and entire cities. Cities can also be captured and destroyed by players. There are repercussions to being too destructive, however, since the game uses an alignment system. All players start out as neutral and then their alignment changes based on their actions in the game. As of this writing, Darkfall is still in beta testing but it could change the face of MMORPGs if it gains and maintains a strong player base. With a strong player base and these innovations, Darkfall could quickly become a top MMORPG.

Comment: Darkfall does not let you go and play by yourself because
you can be attacked by anyone at any time. Dark has features that
are wicked awesome like Naval battles, no levels, no floating names,
massive clan battles, building your own city, make your own weapons,
sounds can be heard from far a way, and the fact that damage to your
character is visible. Since names are not visible and you can not
look behind you with out physically looking behind you,
assassination is possible! This is just some of the new stuff that
has been added. It rocks!

Comment: Darkfall is awesome. I have been following this game for a
few years. This game is not like any other game. There is no grind
at all! You do what you want, kill what you want and go where you
want. There are no limits to what you can do on this game. You can
sail ships, craft, kill other players, guild-v-guild PvP, PvE, build
vast cities, and even destroy the cities of other players!

Comment: This game looks too good to be true! But we do not know for
sure if it will come out or not. I guess all we can do is wait and
see what happens. For the people that think that Darkfall has been
in the works for 7 years, you are wrong. The developers scrapped
everything and started again in 2003.
I also really hate the rookie WoW gamers that bad mouth this game
before it is even out.
