Another great video about Darkfall for the uninformed:

--Darkfall Online--
P2P MMO featuring:
*Unrestricted PvP
*Full loot drop upon player death
*No levels, no more tiring grinds
*No classes, no more restrictions
*FPS style combat, no auto-aim or click and forget spells
*Friendly fire is on, healing spells can even be intercepted by the enemy
*Mounted combat
*Almost everything is player built

This is revolutionary in that the player is offered more freedoms than the average MMO.

You won't be bound by levels, only by your skills. There are no classes either. Let's say you are a typical healer with a big bag of healing spells and one day decide that you want to shoot fireballs, you can find someone to train it to you and eventually become proficient at it.

The world itself takes about 9 hours to travel from end to end, with no cutoffs or invisible walls that can limit your movement. Everything in the game can be made by players, including a variety of ships and boats to houses and clan fortresses. Items like weapons and armor do decay over periods of time and can be repaired for sustained use, but they won't be permanent.

PvP is unrestricted, there are no safe points. All loot is dropped on death: armor, weapons, boats, and mounts. There is no radar, no floating names, no invisibility/'WoW/AoC stealth'. Instead, camouflage takes the role of true stealth, as there's no way for a passerby to know that you're lurking in the brush. All spells, arrows, and melee strikes must be aimed (trajectory applies to projectiles too) and even healing spells can be intercepted. Friendly fire is always on, so spamming harmful AoE won't always be the best of choices.

PvE is not a mind numbing affair. Mobs will have their own unique capabilities and social quirks. They will not have a fixed spawn. They migrate across the world, form communities within the same species, and depending on their intelligence: construct buildings, raise patrols, spawn heroes. Different types of mobs will also kill other mobs.
