Umm, A New Record In Bad Gaming

I don't expect a first person shooter to be able to be played by everyone. There is a cut-off point, there has to be. Any developer, especially an independent one, cannot program the game to fit for everyone.

So overall, would I recommend Darkfall?

Very much so, if you can play first person shooters. It is a daring, beautiful and creative game. It is trying something new with a very old system. It can aggravate you and thrill you. It reminds you of the worst behavior online and how magnificent it is when someone acts wonderfully while in those circumstances. But, if you are deaf (you need to literally "hear" enemies approaching), color blind (the classic "red is evil/damage/enemy player" syndrome) or have control issues (while other FPS's might have key-mapping to allow for different movement set-ups, Darkfall has only a few options), then no this is not for you.
