New MMO, New World, it’s been 2 weeks, time for a look at launch and how my progress has gone so far.
On the fence about buying in to this? Hopefully I can help make that decision!

Fun if you own a city, less so otherwise.
stopped playing at level 20, everything is the same with no motivation nor purpose
Easter
It's a great game if you don't take it too seriously. made for casuals
Honestly, the title is spot on.
The game desperately needs variety. It’s almost entirely the same look and feel all the way through questing. Wolves, alligators, zombies, humans. Those are the only mobs as far as I’ve seen in my time and in streams. Needs variety in weapon skills and skill trees for your character outside of the weapons. Appearance variety would be nice as well, everyone looks nearly the same even into the 30s. And obviously loads of QOL could be pumped in.
Time will tell how hard Amazon wants to push the game now that launch hype is gone.
5/10 imo, looks good and mechanics are fun but only cause it's new, but once the release hype dies down, the game will as well. Unless they make deep changes to core mechanics and systems. Pve sucks because the game engine and core sucks for mob/bb
oss AI, I mean I've seen shitty Dark Souls ripoffs with better enemy design, so I doubt pve will ever be relevant, and pvp can only carry the game for so long.
the game lacks love and a litle bit of magic
Honestly… i got bored by running into a village to loot chest and then repeat this over and over again, with tons of bugs and bad designing.
Sounds like I won't be picking it up any time soon. What a shame.
Still on the fence about buying this one. I think I may be that way for a while. Really not sure if I want to invest the time.
100h of game play got to level 40 untill I gave up the pain of the grind is painfuly boring, i love Grindy games like Warframe WoW or war thunder to name a thue, yet this game didn't bring anything new anything thrilling or interesting. No lore about the regions no special boss characters just re skins and renames with more hp and damage
The biggest reason to play new world is that it's 40$. Not the lore, gameplay, content, pvp, but 'hey its only 40$.'
The problem with that is, that if it were 60$ with a subscription fee then you might actually get alot more people to tell you how they truly feel about the game. Because when you tax the wallet you tax the mind.
This game isn't worth 60$ and a sub. At this rate I wouldn't be Surprised if New World gets discounted or goes f2p and just doubles down on their store.
I really enjoy it, I think there's a good foundation for improvement and iteration. There's plenty of things to complain about for sure, but for me personally it's a grind I'm happy to partake in. Hopeful for the future of the game overall.
I think we played completely a different game from each other! I found this such a painful experience, i went back to ESO.
i played hard for the first 3 days, and then it became apparent that I was going to be hitting trees, nodes, skinning animals for a very long time. PvP isn't terrible when it's not laggy but that's IF people are actually flagged. Why am I in the same areas as enemy factions but they are able to opt out of PvP? As I run from town to quest hub, it's rare I find someone who is flagged to fight against, and then when they are flagged, most people will just run away so they don't lose their PvP quests. There's also the amount of bugs that killed wars, I've heard of bugs that about half of a faction's war roster was stuck in town and couldnt enter the war itself and just lost because they literally weren't ported into the battle, and factions having their entire 50 man squad use ice gauntlets to spam AoE and lag out anyone who set foot on a capture point. It's a lot of downsides to a game that was super hyped, that has mediocre combat, boring gameplay 90% of the time and bugs that still exist from beta. I gave it a chance but it didn't really pull me in, and while we still wait on server transfers to join up with friends from the massive queues it feels like too little too late.
Overall I thought the game would be better than this, but my expectations may have been too high. The game isn't bad, has potential, but isn't good right now. The game feels a bit empty or soulless at this point. It may be better for it to just focus on PvP because the PvE seems really baron.
"kinda boring, but in a fun way" is most likely the best way ive ever seen this game described at.
i enjoy the game but the things that is holding it down are many, to few enemies meaning you face of against the same 10 enemies in the first 50 hours, the run between every quest, the amount of time it takes to lvl up the proffesions and more.
ive put in 82 hours as of this comment and im still enjoying it with my brother but that doesent mean that its problems simply vanish. it has to get better and fast, if enough people get to max lvl and notices that there really isnt anything to do other than pvp and grind xp for proffesions there will be alot of complains and people will stop playing, therefore having big problems as not being able to find groups for dungeons and the economy pretty much stopping to a halt. if no1 is selling no1 can buy and if no1 is buying no1 can sell.
I am in no rush to 60, crafting, questing, gathering and exploring. I'm sure they will improve the AH in time. Just having fun atm.
But is it fun in a boring way?
Thanks for the vid! Wanted to buy NW but I'll probably pass on it for several months lol.
Game will be dead in three months.
I’m enjoying it for mindless fun. Do some quests, craft some stuff, repeat. Quests are repetitive and the novelty of no mounts has worn off. I have azoth procs on most of my gathering gear, so porting around isn’t that bad. Taxes, oh yeah, taxes are ridiculous. As far as bugs, logging into the inside of a crafting station or a rock is bad, but unstuck works.
Runescape without any of the charm or depth IMO. PVPs kinda lame and the dungeons feel like an afterthought
It’s literally a new world just have fun a check stuff out good gap filler game with potential for sure
no mention of pvp?
no
Crafting is disappointing and means nothing and good luck with fighting a war unless you suck the 3-4 biggest company’s dick and level capped with full bis, two most important aspects of the game out the window…nice
Im level 31 and i dont think ill playanymore, its too repetitive. The whole map is marauder, bird people and covenant have all but left the server.
Game needs incentive to play the non dominant faction.
Combat is clunky at best and healing is worse. It sure sounds amazing and looks good but its just a rust/ark not a mmorpg.
great video Big willie
"im not even going to show you what it looks like" This is the kind of Respect that makes me love your content so much WillE, THANK You for not spoiling Shattered Mountain for me real talk
Iron mining simulator…
Weird as it is for me, one of my favorite things are the sound effects during gathering. Sooo good.
buy some cheap houses for free and cheaper travel, so worth. glad gathering and crafting provides exp chopped, fished and picked my way to 50, still a bit more to go
Wille is this vid supposed to have 720p only? I feel like YouTube is fking me over rn
