Never once heard of this game before today, but honestly. If you are going to develop a game for 7 years, why not try to upgrade the graphics engine at some point. Things change a lot in 7 years. A lot.
It's just butt ugly. Graphics don't make the game, but .. well they do make a difference. I'll have to go read up on what the games supposed to play like to make any intelligible comments.. but suffice to say, the eye candy is nill.
The graphics engine was scrapped once during development in order to go with 3d. I wish they'd have stayed with 2d Ultima Online style tbqh. Also, the game wasn't being developed during all of those 7 years. What is now called Darkfall has been worked on for maybe 2 years. The original Darkfall 2d version was maybe developed for the first 2 years or less, then the game was in limbo for about 4 years, hence why people refer to the game as "vaporware" most of the time Then, someone stepped in and funded the game to be done in 3d, which now looks like a butt ugly warhammer, and since they just wanted to make money off of the hype that was to be Darkfall we have this horrible version and the original idea given to us by the original developers is gone forever.
