It's funny this is happening on the cusp of the release of Dragons Crown and the re-release of the Capcom Dungeons And Dragons games.

I guess I'll go and enjoy it while I still can. I didn't even get my character very leveled =(

Well, with any luck, somebody else will decide to bring DFO to the poor american masses...

Yeah. I'm holding out hope that I'll be able to play it again. The alternative is... Well, REALLY sad.

The only othe rgame like this I can think of is Rusty Hearts, but yeah, that's not really the same as this.

I regret not playing this more.

Well, Lost Saga was taken down from OG Planet, and now it's gearing to launch again under a different proverder-thingy. Maybe there'll be hope for this one yet.

I propose that Atlus Online should save it.

I've been looking through the forums and I kept finding links to Closers Online and Mystic Fighter Online; Two other MMO Beat-em-ups. The latter of which being marketed to dethrone DNF's popularity overseas.

I guess I could play MFO if it ever gets released here. Till then... umm... I guess I could try out La Tale or TERA or something. Or blow the dust off my El Sword account.

MFO does look like it would be a good substitute.

If anyone wants to play any DFO with me before it shuts down, let me know.

Both of those games look like a ton of fun.

DFO will still hold a ton of nostalgia value for me, though...

Eh... They look okay.

I'm not going to bother with Closers Online, because if I wanted to play a 2.5D brawler, then I'd play Rusty Hearts (which I have no interest in).

Mystic Fighter Online just looks flat out boring to me. The classes and enemy designs all look like generic fodder I've seen from other games, and the "gritty urban city overrun by thugs" setting was tired, even in the 90s. Worst of all, everything lacks impact. Nothing really looks like it HURTS, or even connects in some places. It's dull and uninteresting, and I'm pretty sure that playing it will only make me want to play DFO more.

I don't know what it is about El Sword, but it quickly became tedious after my first class change.

There's also been some talk of Kritika, but I'd rather wait for Blade & Soul.

I'm making more progress in getting my Fighter leveled. I'm at 31, and I have bout 9 days left of my Returned Hero XP bonus. I'm having a hard time actually getting into groups though. Quick party never seems to work, and neither does requesting to join any group that is open. I guess I should just make my own. The best luck I've had is being invited to someone's group.

I'm used to playing solo on MM Os, ironically. I kind of wish there was a single player version of this game to play when the NA servers go down.

I've also been recording my gameplay. I'll see about posting it on my Youtube, but I don't know if it will impress anyone.

What's your Fighter's name? Mayhaps I can help out?

[up]It's GeneCage. I'm not playing right now, I already played enough for today. I'll get back on sometime tomorrow. When I do I'll probably leave a message here. You can find me on the Behemoth A channel.

Well, I'm in.

Channel 36 [Behemoth A] and I'm playing a [lvl. 32] Male Striker, FuriousMing.

Hopefully I'll be able to connect to someone, but most likely not.

Still can't login. I'm making preparations to film my final hours on all my characters, though, so I'll have something to remember.

Vindictus is running an event to bring in DFO players... But you need to have op'd in for their newsletter. Wow. What a dick move.

Reminder: the game's shutting down tomorrow, so if anyone's willing to go for one last run through the game, just holler.

I'm recording my last gameplay session later tonight.

Said goodbye to my main.

I have a shitty, blurry, barely recognizable in-game-video-capture of her last performance where I barely get past a nondescript midpoint dungeon.

I will always treasure it.

Guess all we can do now is hope a different company picks it up. And treats it right.

speaking as a longtime Co H vet who never played DFO..lets just say I at least empathize with how you guys feel..

... I played City Of Heroes a ton too.

Le sigh.

I don't think I'll ever bother investing myself in an MMO as much as those two.

I recorded myself playing the last couple of dungeons I could access. Only just made it to level 34. Wish I played this game more. Guess I'll have to look elsewhere for my action-MMO fix, like PSO 2.

I couldn't do it. I stared at the "Play" button for almost an hour, but I couldn't do it.

I managed to record a few clips of me playing in a dungeon. I only reached lvl 20, the level where I'm able to choose my promotion class for my fighter.
