for a realistic taste of what Darkfall combat is really like, check out the following vid, showcasing a 1v1 tournament held during beta. the fights range in skill from average to high, and include melee combat interspersed with archery & spell fights. The better fights are generally from the middle onwards.
i hope this makes it clear why DF melee is not simply a 'clickfest' any more than WOW is a special-attack-spamfest. granted, there are fewer 'special attacks' in DF, but then DF places a lot higher emphasis on timing, movement, and of course, aiming.
...not saying DF combat is 'better', though personally i do prefer it.
edit: note the nice decaptiation at 9:10.
Yeah, I played that game like 5 years ago... it's called COUNTER STRIKE !!
Talk about DF s graphics as good as LOTRO is purely dillusional. Saying the combat is anything but a clickfest(ie it takes all sorts of skill) also dillusional. I was in beta it isn t skill, well not as much as fanbois claim. Besides all the hacks etc out there make anything in this game less credible. I said a couple weeks ago, how much this game will become extremly boring soner then later and it will. These videos are just proving most people who think this game isn t very good, as right. Anyways if you love DF so much go play it. Why are you on here defending it to death, let the game speak for itself.

i *played* LOTRO. it's not a bad looking game but as far as i'm concerned, it's just another boring & dumbed-down quest-driven PVE grindfest. me personally i myself think DF's world/enviro graphics are easily better than LOTRO and AoC, a large part of this opinion though comes from the "feel" of the world brought about by stuff like shadows/sunrises/sunsets/wind/weather/ambient sound/good world design.
*ALL* games are click/press-fests, different games use different buttons but really it's all just the same thing.... you just didn't like the game, get over it. it begs the obvious question: why are you here if you didn't like the game? /boggle
i think the game *does* speak for itself. the whole object of posting the video is to help those who are ambivalent about the game, and to bring it to the attention of other DF PVPers as training material.
if fast-action, twitch-based combat in a sandbox mmo world doesn't appeal to you, then PLEASE DON'T TRY DARKFALL. i don't think you *have* to love PVP to enjoy DF though, the PVE side has a lot more quality than it's given credit for... many have made their entire opinion of DF's PVE game from fighting the starter goblins which is just as dumb as saying WOW's PVE sucks cause goldshire boars are boring.
i guess the fact there are so many people in the DF forums who clearly are not really that interested in it just highlights how boring/dull/repetitive the other MMOs are.......

Heh, problem is most people cannot play it.
My opinion matters to everyone...
