Do I just Hate New World?
Do I hate everyone who likes New World?
Why don’t I just let people enjoy the game and shut up about the flaws.

My priority is now and will always be, the players, the gamers.
I will praise what is good, and slate what is bad so the players can make an informed choice about the games they spend their hard earned money on.

If you are a video game player, I am not your enemy.

Thank you to the supporters on Patreon and Twitch who keep the channel alive.

  1. Your videos are always so informative and fair, watching them I never feel that you're trying to belittle game itself, but rather point out flaws so they would get more attention and get fixed. Being said that, I would encourage you to check out Corepunk mmo, which has been delayed once again, but they keep releasing gameplay which looks polished like no other. But most interesting part about it is company behind it, they're polar opposite of how New World was rushed, just check it for yourself and you'll see..
    Keep this great work, I know that I can always count on your videos!

  2. Ah yes, the classic "why don't you make a better game if you can" response after criticizing something. You know, lately I find myself arguing and debating with this kind of people. People without actual coherent arguments. I'm feeling like a scientist talking with a flat earther. Pointless. What do you do in these cases? And I'm asking because it is so frustrating, when you try to have a decent debate, expose all the pros and cons of something, and they just answer with insults or the "do it better if you can".

  3. effectively by making videos like this series it is shining a light onto the issues and bugs that could have been dealt with earlier. but instead the higher ups at the company and/or development team decided were not worth fixing before launch since they could just patch it down the road.

  4. We've heard dozens of times devs saying they're not being given time and resources to fix problems, or add content, by the executives. So, yeah, I find these 'name and shame' tactics on the issues very effective. As long as people aren't being harassed, and the focus is on the game itself.

  5. Having to defend yourself because you point all these issues with the game, just shows how desperate the mmorpg playerbase wants a new mmo to succeed eventho its the most buggy release mmo release maybe never..

  6. Povo é idiota mesmo. O jovem diz com todas as palavras do vídeo "eu não quero que o New World morra". Mesmo assim os idiotas dizem que ele odeio o jogo….
    Tem um canal Brasileiro chamado Chipart, "lá eles dizem aqui não é democracia" e banem todos os imbecis que aparecem lá pra falar merda.
    Não importa o quanto você fale e explique, pois só existem duas opções:
    1 – A pessoa é mau caráter e entendeu o que você quis dizer, mas só está distorcendo o que você disse para irritar.
    2 – A pessoa é extremamente burra. Não importa quantas vezes você explique ou tente explicar de outras formas, a pessoa que entendeu errado nunca irá entender, pois não tem capacidade cognitiva de entender e ponto final.
    Em ambos os casos você irá perder seu tempo e paciência tentando explicar mil vezes a mesma coisa.
    Hoje você pode estar bem de saúde e bem mentalmente, mas ficar perdendo tempo com esses comentários um dia isso vai te consumir. Você vai quebrar por dentro e isso vai inclusive influenciar na sua saúde.
    Não quero que daqui alguns anos você faça um vídeo dizendo que está dando uma pausa, porque, não consegue mais com povo mau criado, ignorante, mau educado, estupido, etc..
    você tem que banir essa gente da sua vida, seja youtube, twitter, onde for. Quando você precisar de ajudar, com certeza esses panacas não vão ser as pessoas que vão lhe ajudar. Você tem que filtrar quem te assiste.
    Critica construtiva sempre é bem vinda, mas sempre tem como perceber quem está falando bobagens simplesmente para criar brigas.

  7. How dare you actually want a better game. Don't you understand your hurting the shareholder. Can't you think of the RICH!

    And for those that don't see the sarcasm. Understand that, that. Is. Why. Amazon. Makes. Choices. It's not you and the game you purchased, it's how will the shareholders react.
    Bugs are a part of a game, yes. Bugs should NOT be an accepted part of the game. Yes sometimes you have to deal with it, but would you deal with a car that leaks tons of gas and can't go anywhere because of that? No? Really, then why put up with a bug that BREAKS THE GAME!

    Just food for thought. Like it or not. Reporting bug, via massive audience is the most effective way to fix the bug at this time. (That being said, Reporting the bug FIRST then talking about it via viral video, will get the best results….)

  8. not a fan of the "they didn't listen" framing because it implies the devs don't care. I'm sure they do. the suits don't care. feel free to apply this to any other mmo folks are mad at too

  10. Thank you for placing such high value on integrity and the 'player first' mentality. Though I will personally never touch anything from Amazon due to my own sense of integrity, I hope those playing NW will ultimately get a polished game that they can enjoy

  11. TBH Josh there is no point in you clarifying all of this, most of those who are against will always be against you for disagreeing with them and I think you already know that. The people who understand where your coming from and agree with you are the majority and the others are just a VERY vocal minority.
