    I'm totally new to the game and it hooked me into playing all day, it's been years since a game did that for me, in new world when you tire of combat and missions you can just level your jobs and chill with other players, maybe it's cause I hadn't played something like this before but I'm having tons of fun so I'm totally gonna pre-order it.

      @@lolsaidthescorpionlmao I love to hear that man. At one point I felt the same way about the game and it still holds a special place in my heart. New World is in a really great spot for new players, way better than what it was in 2021. It’s just been hard for veteran players to see the bigger picture with the new console release. I’ll see you in Aeternum during the October Launch! 😊

      It will wear off quick. The endgame is horrible. The system grinds are horrible. AGS gate keeps addons so they can siphon money from their audience that would have been a free addon by a private modder. The list goes on and on, don't waste your time or money.

      The combat is by far the best, and FAIREST I have ever seen in any MMO in history. Skill > Gear, and in fact you can beat any max lvl geared character even naked if you know what you are doing. There is no significant grind, compared to other MMOs. I have not grinded ANYTHING for over a year. Actually, the only time we "grind" is when a new expansion comes out - unless ofc you want to try many different builds - in which case you will need to grind multiple pieces/chests.

      Playing on release is one of the best experiences i've had in gaming. Many of us don't enjoy the endgame since there isn't a ton of it, but for a first time playing it's very much worth it especially on release when the servers are populated.

      One opinion that is universal is that this is one of the best games you’ll play early on. In it’s vanilla state it really struggled and so the numbers reflected that. I played this game day 1 and hung around longer than the masses. I hope they’ve addressed the longevity issues because it really is a good game

    As a console player trying it the first time it's been a huge breathe of fresh air, my whole discord loves it, the only complaint is that we can't shut off cross play yet and we're forced to play with all these toxic PC players who hate us and troll is just because we get to play now.

      But that sucks that the “disgruntled” PC players are giving you a hard time. Just know there ARE still PC players (like myself) that are excited to welcome console players to the game. Give it some time and once people realize the massive uptick in population, more people will come around.

    I think people underestimate what console releases can/would do for games. As far as this game which is stable and had years to bake I’m sure without a doubt it’ll give the game a second wind and have a sustained player base. IMO as well the lack of content so to speak isn’t bad if you consider the possibility that their main focus was to always have a stable console port getting worked on since release. We shall see what the next year or 2 holds now as far as future content and updates, this will be the studios last chance to save a solid game.

    I started playing the game about ten months ago. At first I was all happy to discover a really interesting game. I was happy to light the hearth, make weapons, food. Everything was interesting until the bugs started. Until I got to max lvl, playing was a real pleasure. But then I started to lose my temper. I got into the game, and soon I was greeted with a message saying that I have installed harmful software. Not to mention many bugs and issues. So after ten months I go into the game just to play some invasion. That's all. Most of the friends I played with got tired of the daily grind and left the game. It's a shame, because the game is really promising, but Amazon never made that much effort to fix the servers and enable normal gameplay. If you want to enjoy the game, find some other game, if you are going to play NW then make sure you have good nerves. Good luck if you decide to play🍀
