Darkfall review
Aventurine's Darkfall Online
brings the adrenaline rush back
to MMORPGs. Finally, you will
know that you won – not because you
had better items, but just because you
were better. Be prepared though, if
modern MMOs are like a riding a shiny
theme park thrill-ride, then Darkfall is
like snowboarding down a mountain
ahead of an avalanche. It's brutal, gritty,
unforgiving and it's a rough ride, but if
you survive, it can be a rush!
The emphasis on player skill starts in
the lack of classes and levels. Playing a
pre-designed class in an MMOG can
feel like wearing someone else's shoes
– you get used to them, but they never
quite fit. You won't have that problem
in Darkfall. You choose from a list of
skills that suit your play style and to
develop the skill you just use it – your
skills go up as you play. The early result
of this was that all players were hybrids
of a sort, with the same basic skills. As
players become more experienced and
characters become more developed,
unique skill sets are appearing and
players are falling into roles.
