  1. its hard to watch videos like these when you try to sugarcoat every single thing. sure, its good to be positive about the future and appreciate the work that devs put it, but you gotta call out an absolute clusterfuck bullshit when you see it unfold in front of your eyes. the population just went down by at least 30% in a matter of days but all that big twitch streamer and youtubers do is close their eyes and pretend like it aint a big deal.

  2. I've done MMO launches since the Asheron's Call; I have never seen is such continuous and heavy handed class 'adjustments' so quickly (read – Life Staff). It would of been better to address the major issue (out-going healing from Heavy armor nerfed by 60% to 80%) and then adjust slowly as other things get fixed and balanced. Most of the rest of the issues really on par for a new MMO, more so from a studio that hasn't released a MMO before.

  3. I feel like they should increase the drop rate of epic trophy maeriqls and add an option to upgrade the epic to legendaries at 200 furnishing possibly requiring t5 legendary materials (tolvium, wild wood, etc).

  4. Hey Demone I love your videos man, thanks for keeping us up to date on stuff regarding New World. I have something I would like to ask you regarding the Void Gauntlet in PvE Tanking, does the threat gain from attacks and abilities using a carnelian gem seem to not let you pull aggro off enemies in group content? I know that void gauntlet doesn't have a designated taunt, however I seem to have a lot of trouble pulling aggro with a pristine carnelian gem slotted into the weapon. What are your thoughts and experiences with this?

  5. Why are they making the game harder? It's already a huge grind. I decided to take a break a little over a week ago, and since then there have been two things happen that make me want me to come back less. I am a solo player, and the game just a got tons more difficult for players like me. This game is very unfriendly to solo players.

    Edit: Extremely happy to hear about the reticle change. Why can't games just do a cross hair anymore? Also, you continue to do a great job Demone.

  6. Tbh my biggest issue with the game right now is the fire staff nerf. Its unusable. Almost completely useless in pvp unless you have 350 int. Very frustrating because this is my first MMO and the fantasy/magical aspect is what really drew me to playing. I dont like how everyones complaining about their melee weapon not being strong enough, but the leave the fire staff in the dust.

  7. Was fishing, and got some pop up message about "Was I AFK?" didn't read the rest of the blurb, but were they trying to make out that I was a bot? Because I was fishing? I'll go fishing again, for sure, and see if that message hits again and read it right through or take a screen shot. Seeing as how I was working on a hot spot, casting out, reeling in, I don't see why I have to move position periodically when I've got the distance figured out at last…

  8. Tbh i don’t even care about the chest nerf or increases difficulty, i hate it when they don’t include all the change they did into the patch note. That’s what bother me the most. I mean if you want to change/nerf something controversial at least has the balls to put it in the patch note

  9. I'm not playing this shitshow any longer.
    The server I'm on is down to less then 250 players. Server merge is needed but not on the horizon, and looking at how they are handling things I doubt it will happen this year.
    They just go their own sick twisted way ignoring what ever we offer as feed-back.

  10. This patch is the reason I will stop playing this game. Undocumented nerfs and changes that made solo experience nearly impossible. Rewards nerfed and the game is unreasonably difficult now. I'm disappointed. The crafting nerfs are tough to swallow but at least they're in the patch notes. They removed the coat part of the Legatus pvp armor. The pvp armor is now ugly.

  11. #1, Increasing the difficulty of bosses, and increasing mob size and levels, and not including it in patch notes? Really? They forgot to include THAT? To be honest, that's outrageous.
    #2, I love the look and feel of the game, but it's a game designed for hard-core grinding. I hate hard-core grinding.

  12. i would love to see a 5 man group of devs run myrkguard on current patch its physically impossible to clear corruptions and it also scales to how many players are in the area on our server (Difu) a 40 man myrkguard run all got clapped by one warcaller. If they wanted to scale per player im all for that but they also increased the HP of every ad in myrk making the warcallers and bears a 10 min fight for a 5 man. Even as a 10 man these ads are still not worth killing and 10 players is not enough to complete portals either.

  13. You can still ninja run things if your solo 😉 you just need to find where the de aggro spot is and now they moved some chest (you can still get) and added some more that needs some taticts to get but still solo-able

  14. I like the increase in difficulty in those higher tier zones. I usually run myrk with 3 groups of 5 anyways. Now with the pvp luck changes all factions are at myrk fighting in myrk around Thorpe and other mobs. It’s insane and I like that. I can see how people in smaller servers wouldn’t be having fun with it thought.

  15. Harder mobs to kill for all greens lol new world really needs to get its loot right been doing chest runs for ever and never get anything worth having 720 hrs 3 legendary items and 2 of them were shit

  16. Nah they did this because they dont have the content ready they nerfed water mark progressions and crafting vocations for this reason all this does is shit on players that took thier time in the game and new players. I'm kinda just done with this game lost ark's around the corner so I'm cool with dropping this or coming back in a year or 2 if it's still alive.

  17. dont see anyone talking about it, have you heard of the bow nerfs? you cant chain abilities after any attack now light or heavy and you cant dodge until 0.5/1 sec after any attack. It's made it pretty unusable

  18. AGS really needs to work on their banning procedures. Was chopping trees and got banned for 24 hours because of abusive chat or actions. My game had been bugging out all day so that I couldn't even use chat other than group. When I appealed my ban I asked them to tell me exactly what I did or said to get banned. The response was that they looked at my appeal and and decided to uphold the ban and that they would not be telling me why I was banned. So now I get to look forward to future bans because I don't know what they don't want me to do.

  19. They 100% Nerfed the elite chests just to get people back into Expeditions. The recent changes to making the keys easier to make and now this?
    I dont buy them doing it as unintentional one bit.

  20. as someone who took it slow on getting to 60 only this past week, i decided to farm for the faction gear before stating chest runs. especially with the faction pvp quest changes. now i never want to start chest runs if it’s as ridiculous as what people are saying

  21. Demone I really appreciate your posts – you are the only poster that I go out of my way to listen to each day.
    Thank you for explanations.
    I'm confident this game will continuously improve, bring it on 🙂

  22. So elite chests drop crap, Solo silver elite named have been nerfed, Myrk/Mines useless, profs turned into the grind of the century, wars unplayable, what the heck is left to do in game?
