Even Ultima Online had a skill cap, and thats what made the game amazing and diverse. YES, you can pick your skills and be your own character (even though a large portion of the population picked the same 2 or 3 builds), but when you allow everyone everything, its just a game of who capable of utilizing and binding the most abilities, not who is actually good and picking which abilities are useful in which situations. Everyone was everything always... if they were good. I've watched dozens of videos, and every good player does the same thing, wearing the same armor, casting the same spells, using the same weapons. Min/Max to the extreme.

The bolded is exactly what being good in Darkfall was about. You can't learn everything about a game just by watching videos, especially a game as unique as Darkfall. There were no good players that said "oh I wish I could bind more abilities then I'd be good". That's just silly. It sounds like you had a lot of trouble with keybinds when/if you played DF, but it's just something that everyone got down if they wanted to start being a good player. Then came aiming, spell selection, teamwork, awareness, etc.

I still don't really understand the complaint about everyone doing everything... it's the ultimate balance, and the "everything" was such a huge variety of skills that there really were differences between people if you knew the game well enough.

I actually followed Darkfall for almost 10 years, played it in beta, launch and several times throughout its lifespan. I know exactly what the game was about.

No, never had any problems with keybindings or competing, I just didn't like the gameplay in it. Obviously I wasn't the only one, the game flopped and AV redesigned it, especially as it pertains the problems I stated above.

Hope it will be fun, but it may have an even rougher launch than the last one.

Shame.

Ya, can't say I'm that hopeful about the new Darkfall at this point. It was only $15 though if you played the old game, so thats not bad for a month to try it out.

No one cares what you think. You're a nobody here and in game, and nothing but a useless troll. Do everyone a favor and never talk again.

gonna try it since i heard the pvp is hardcore. never played dark fall one so should keep me entertained for at least half an hour whenever it does come out.
