Well I've been talking to my old guild leader in Darkfall and he says there is basically 10 abilities (all of which he showed me including cooldowns which take about 1 to 15 IQ to operate properly), and none of which take even the slightest amount of skill or brains to use. Hes been playing alpha for quite some time too, knows a lot about the game and always nerds out on any game with some world pvp. Your idea of skill is almost as big of a joke as your fanboy hard on for this game (OF COURSE before it is released). I've played almost every MMO since EQ past 2001 (mostly all pvp), played competitive cal-i in CS when it meant something (scrim'd top tier teams who won 100k tournaments), and no MMO has taken skill to play at all. In fact, id say most games don't take any skill, it is all about time investment and practice in anything that has the illusion of skill. Darkfall had some of the most "skilled" combat i've seen or played, you had to actually aim stuff, this game you aim absolutely nothing, you spam 1-5 and manage cooldowns any retard who has played any MMO can do. Not saying darkfall is a bench mark for skill, but talking to him he said this game doesn't even come close to comparing to the skill level. So no I haven't bought a game to play in its alpha (clear money grab, the devs dont even know what to do with the NA version), but I have talked to many people who have been playing since NA alpha started, watched hours and hours of streams, and asked a ton of comparative questions about Arch vs other games. This is typically why I never come onto forums of any game I play (unless looking for something specific), so many horrible scrubs like you professing their skills when in reality you are the gutter bottom. Just look at all your butt hurt responses on this thread alone, anything from saying WoW arena takes no skill (with no armory link to prove you aren't a 1500 baddie rager), saying Arch is SOOO much different because of xyz (all bullshit), or just lashing out at anyone who says anything bad about your Korean wet dream. The game is in every way a button masher, in fact the only thing separating it is how you get to that point (it has some cool pve elements, some good world pvp elements, ship fights, gliding, a fun style), but the actual combat vs players takes less skill then WoW does, which says more then I ever could. When it comes out I give it 2 months until people realize it takes little skill, and everyone is just FOTM builds.
Proof is that all the no-skilled asshat guilds of every other mmo are already on the ALPHA griefing people. That is all the game is, grief pvp. So sure have fun no skilling others while stroking it thinking your the best, but remember winning the Olympics for tards only makes you lead tard.
Not to mention you are on a game that is 15 years old, on the forums of the emu of that game, and talking about how good some game that isn't even out yet is. What a joke. Your basically the equivelant to a 15 yr old fat rager who doesn't even interact with females.
