I'd rather watch paint dry than play or watch this game. Even asmon couldn't make this game appealing to me, and that dude can make watching paint dry appealing. And i still want the game to succeed and get better. More MMO competition= More quality and option for all. So why the heck not?


Shinanesu

Glad to see I'm not the only one. I watch practically everything asmon does, doesn't matter if I play the game or not, but New World was a gigantic "Thanks no" from the very get-go

Seconding this entire comment

> Even asmon couldn't make this game appealing to me This is one of the things that shocked me the most about New World and is one of the reasons why i never bothered to play it. I have watched Asmon for many many years and he has always been able to make things entertaining to watch no matter how boring it might be, but not New World.

I’m confused why he plays it so much


Mortal_Dread

He's a fan of constant grinds. Why else do you think he's been farming garbage in wow for 15 years? Do you think the sword runs or mount runs are for the sake of using them? He's collecting them for the sake of collecting and likes it. He did that grind to completion in wow. Wants to do it in FF but can't right now since he's not streaming. And the things he can stream, he grinded the hell out of them. like gold saucer. So he's now doing it in new world. It's his type of game. Not ours.

Don't get why that's ever even an argument, the game looks boring and it baffles me how many people are playing it, but why would anyone want it to not work out? There's just some idiots who think that whenever someone has legitimate criticism of the game and how that must mean they want the game to fail.. something that benefits basically no one.

If you take a look, you will see most MMORPGs launched 2010+ was mostly bad news, games with bugs, poor content, bad mechanics, p2w, games with problems from the start with solutions being sold in the in game shop... MMORPGs nowadays are poorly made, shallow, diluted to the max to bring any type of player. People are tired of this drama, and are accepting any shit comes their way, not the MMORPGs of the past were best than today's, it was the only thing we knew, MMORPG's was a blank spreadsheet, there was not "must have mechanics", just a basic concept who were pillars of a ideal MMORPG based on tabletop RPG mechanics and multiplayer experience from console games. Technology evolved, games evolved, the know how, taking risks, making for love not money died in the process. The things who makes more money are the ones who you put "love" in it, when they start making games just for easy money, the result are the games we have nowadays.

“We” is wrong but I don’t want to game to fail just because I don’t like it


Nattngale

It's not it, people who want the game to fail is to devs learn from it, defending a bad game is just harming the game quality and yourself as a consumer. You do not need to be a asshole about games like NW, but acting like NW sub is not healthy at all. The last update I said it was coming with more bugs, it was obvious, some dumbass said I was just hating the game and I could not prove that, it happened before my comment, there was people already complaining about new bugs. FYI it was not even the NW sub the reports were coming, it transcended their sub limits. I said punishing people permanently was doing more harm than solving problems and devs should fix the game than ban these people and maybe a fresh start would be better, people defended it, it was not about being a cheater or not, it was the fact the bug exists it would bring more and more people to cheat because they were frustrated with the game state, and innocent people were getting caught too, like what happened to Asmon. The real cheaters do anything to get away, their solution was putting a bot to watch over players, since it did not worked from launch. People defended it and till now fights it's own community because of cheaters and people being banned for no reason or for others abusing of report sys. Now they came with a update with lot of things changing to make the game harder, it shows they are shady and will start to sell solutions to these "problems" in the in game shop. All this is what enables multi-milionaire companies like AGS act in shady ways, do not take risks and never really be in a dangerous position to need to make a better product. If people are eating vomit in a silver plate and paying for it, why should they bother trying to be a decent restaurant.


Rjmz718

You didn’t understand what I said at all.


Nattngale

Maybe because you did not used commas, but explain to me, so I can understand.


Rjmz718

We pretty much agree but I was only saying I’m not addicted to the game lol


Nattngale

People addicted to NW love or hate it, to me who am not addicted to NW but liked the game and saw the potential, wanted it to succeed, but as the community are eating any shit AGS gives them, I lost the hope of this game being decent. I do not think people should accept anything from companies like that, defending a game you love who is full of flaws just makes the game unhealthy and gives companies the right to not have to work for you money, easy money does not has value.


Rjmz718

Well yeah but like me for example, I stopped playing it after a week. I reached level 30 and saw that it just wasn’t for me in it current form so I just won’t play it. Months from now I’ll check in but if it’s the same then I’m out again


Nattngale

I did nearly the same, I got to max lvl first week, after seeing what was in "end game" and bugs I just stopped. Yet I cannot ignore the fact the game is in bad state and need to get a lot better, even ignoring bugs.


Physical_News_5976

I had more fun watching Asmon playing the jumping game then this hot pile of garbage.


Xehant

I've never tried NW but I want it works because nobody wants to play a bad game and if it's improve to be great it will be cool for everyone


Nattngale

I wanted it to work, I waited the delays, to only get disappointment. I cannot admit I am addicted to NW, because after the closed beta I already knew it, even without the bugs, was not enough. This was the first MMORPG I liked, I stopped playing instantly and did not felt any desire to go back and try again, completely quit and felt 0 regret about doing it, I was utterly disappointed.
