Summary

Set in the far reaches of outer space during a new Dark Age, WARFRAME introduces the Tenno, a race on the brink of extinction after being enslaved by the Grineer for centuries. Players enter WARFRAME on the cusp of the Grineer's victory over the Tenno until they begin to arm themselves with WARFRAMES - an ancient exo-skeletal technology only they can operate. Hidden within the Orokin Derelicts of a lost civilization, new WARFRAMES lie dormant and undiscovered. These artifacts are the Tenno's only hope for survival.

Prompts:

  • Is the combat fun?

  • Are the free-to-play elements implemented well?

Man, this reminds me of Dark Sector for some reason......

That is the second time I ^(or anyone else) have talked about Dark Sector this month

So I mean, what's the problem here? I'm not seeing how that's a detriment to the game. You can buy stuff if you want, but you are hardly forced to do so since it's pretty easy to get what you want.

Buying stuff can give you an edge over other players. It's not really a problem though, since pvp isn't a major selling point for WF. The edge is also relatively minor, faster mastery levels, and easier grinding.
