I am not buying it. People you listed played SB, UO that all had open PvP and often more ruthless than DFO. Maybe "the one or other broken aspect of the game" is really to blame?


My opinion, is a combination of bad systems that take place on DF, plus people can deny but I do think is true, both MMOs have the combat tab, df do not have that, to old people is harder to master it, how many kgbers dueled my cousin mumm and lost to him, he´s young and seems master the combat with more easily.
So.. to me 3 aspects

- People have less time to play, and the big enemies have all time to play.
- Several bad systems in darkfall(siege system,bunny jump etcs,cities to not protect you, actually cities drop people morale by the griefing caused by hostiles)
- Combat is harder to master and be good at it against young people.

Sum all together and you will have an harder time trying to skill up against people that can grief you all day long, with few resources and mobs to get gold.


I played UO, I can say it for 100%, pvp in UO was a lot easier, specially using UOAssist, other Macro tools, that you combine with combat TAB target system and TADA!, you do not have to aim, so is just a matter of the right macros and the right timing(that df still need too). In DF we have to aim one arrow, spells, and melee weapons against people that have 30 ping, at a moving target is all different. :P
- comparing df combat to UO,SB you must be kidding. We have examples, that people that were good at UO,SB combat system but are trash in DF.

Overall, other main factor is people in KGB do not have the same time that they have to play before, and if you cannot get a consistent group of players to play together at same time with same objectives we will have a harder time.
