There's a lot of overlap between the two subgenres, with settings and stories such as Elric, Warhammer, Diablo, Dark Sun, etc, often being classified as 'dark fantasy'. Dark Sun was also a major source of inspiration for Armageddon, a mud which the original poster spoke very highly of in another thread. So what I consider 'dark fantasy', he might well consider 'medieval fantasy'.

I wasn't being funny about it though; I was really just curious as to why is was you'd singled out GW2. I'd assumed it wasn't the setting, as two of the other muds you recommended have time travel themes - thus I wanted to make sure I hadn't misread one of the OP's requirements.
