Game aims to take great assets from Ultima Online 2nd Age, like skill system and ffa PVP. There will be no safe zones and also you can loot anything when you kill another player. As they say game comes with 500 skills / 500 magic skills. You can build houses, town, castles. You can actually lose control of them as well.
As a long-time MMO player I'm really sad to see this genre struggling. I've build a whole new pc for Vanguard in 2007 then I've build another one for Age of Conan last year.
ATM the game is in closed beta. There is still not much information, seems like beta testers are pretty loyal. Actually none of them ever leaked any useful information. It's good to see that they are taking this game seriously.
Darkfall will be launched in Europe and later in U.S.A as well. Still there are many U.S based players who will start right after launch and play on European Servers.
This game is developed by a small Greek company called Aventurine. Company has no or only a little background so It's big question mark if they can deliver or not. Games like Warhammer and Conan failed despite the huge budget.
I just keep hoping but this one might be another failure. Hope it turns out to be a good one. Fingers crossed.
