I just don't understand why people get so invested into games that aren't even released yet. They bitch and moan that it took 10 years for AV/razorswax's ideas to get released. Then they bitch and moan some more that huge gamesweeping hard-to-implement changes weren't added for their benefit. They make examples of UO being sandboxy and in the same sentence bitch that Darkfall has instant travel and doesn't have local banking. Two things UO didn't have.
One thing is for certain: DF1 has some of the best pvp of any MMO I have ever played. Would I play it over other MMO's? Hell yes. It has ruined me for any tab-target MMO out there. They are just not engaging enough and I get bored very easily with them. A lot of people have this same problem. Does DF have its flaws? Yes. That's why when every single new MMO comes out, there's a serious dip in population as everyone tries the next new shiny toy, but they always come back to give ol' Darkfall another chance.
If local resources and local banking is your number one requirement in MMO's my suggestion is to go to EVE or Mortal Online. I hear they both have that sort of stuff. One's fantasy and one's sci-fi so pick your poison.
For me, and many of my current DF friends, we're going to give DF:UW a chance. And if it's something that is just completely different from something I want/expected, you can bet your ass I won't be on mmorpg.com or darkfall forums bitching about it 3 years from now.
P.S. No where in any update AV made, did they say DF:UW was going to implement changes that they could't in the first launch. EVER.

old post I know, just had to say that when DF1 was released it came with maybe 20% of what everyone expected and they never added any later.
I do agree that DF1 has the best pvp out of any MMO i've played, if not I'd be playing that instead of waiting for UW.
I think that the gameplay alone is enough to get people wanting it so badly but the lack of content prevents longevity, hence the complaints.

Why does UW interest you over DF1?
