Think about it- with so many people in the various gaming forums out there practically peeing their pants to scream vaporware the moment someone mentions Darkfall, it's inevitable that many additional people end up hearing about Darkfall.

But they hear about it in the wrong way and people can be easily influenced over something they know nothing about. Word of mouth is a two way street, it can be bad and good.

I feel there's a convergence of trolls here now, and fewer on other forums, because of the May announcement of 2008 release date. With just 30-odd days to go, it's quite a date, if we don't see the release next month the mods will have a very busy couple of months because the "trolls" will be laughing their butts off at the "fans" for yet another wasted year.

But yes, trolls anywhere off this forums are free advertising. Though if Darkfall delivers what it promises, I don't think exposure won't be an issue.

True dat. Theres people over at the garrys mod forum, facepunch, that scream vapourware in the face of blatent beta evidence.

Trying to reach people before these idiots do isn't always easy.

Wow that's ironic. A guy that makes you want to punch him in the face is named facepunch.

Any time anyone says anything about Darkfall its more publicity for them. Spread the word. Make sure Aventurine gets the money they deserve on release. :D

I heard about this game when someone was joking about how AoC would never be realeased. Something like, "Yea, it'll come out the week after DF." And I was like, "What's DF?" And he was like, "Darkfall, a.k.a. vaporware" and I googled it and here I am today.

That would serve a film adaptation well.

More people = more carebears
more carebears = more whining (about no safe areas/getting killed)
more whining = seperate pvp servers.
seperate pvp servers = death of DF:ninja:
