Darkfall Community Q&A

There's a massive Darkfall community Q&A up at MMORPG.com, where unnamed members of the Aventurine development team have taken the time to answer fan questions about a variety of topics related to the game. For example:
Could you describe your plans for further marketing of Darkfall and give any timeline for a US box release? - Garful Greatforge, Heroes Fate

We've been steadily increasing our marketing spend across traditional channels as our subscribers are steadily increasing. We're also working on alternative marketing schemes like the Community Publishing program which is going extremely well. We're speaking with several partners concerning a N. America box release but we can't give an ETA on that yet.

...

What are your plans if any to ensure that new players will be able to have fun in the beginning of their Darkfall experience? - Lady DDT, Blackshields

We believe that this is one of the very few MMORGs where players can have fun and be viable and useful from day one. The game is designed for it. You can jump right into the action and make an impact unlike most MMOs that force you to reach this or the other milestone before you can even think of participating.

Now if you are referring to making the game more newbie friendly, then we're planning several improvements in 2010.
