Nice, you’ve compared two games that have the bulk of their people log on through the official launcher. To a game where you forced to log on through Stream. So that if you refund, you lose partial access to your whole Steam account.
My only retort to that is, GW2’s base game with some social limitations is free to play. You can find BDO for $1 sometimes, worst case you’ll play $10 at full price. I highly recommend you actually experience the two games before you say they are dead.
Where I wrote games died? Then dont play New World, I dont like strongly equalized pvp. MMORPG are about progression and this is why I play NW. I met with equalized pvp in Lost Ark and it was bad many classes have lacks without XYZ stats or engravings and game is dominated by 3-4 classes, where in Open World I can fill this hole and its totally different game. Player should have his own way to design gear and take what he need, change gear or skills if its needed. Do you imagine here how OPR or Arena woould look like without „antibow” gear ? If they already hit like truck with 20% thurst ? Nah equalized pvp is for moba games not RPG.
Yes I will be, but I do only OpR and arenas sometimes scarab runs. Thats enough to buy everything I need. You dont like dont play if you dont play New World why you are here to complain ?
The crafting is fine. I been also getting epics only on 20+ scarab crafts. But all the bis items has gone down in price from millions of coins to just a few hundred. The market is floded with bis No one need. U cant Ask for cheaper or easier crafts at this point cuz it is easy enough.
@MrSky Point to where in the last few months I posted a complaint about New World.
I accepted it a while ago, and rarely even launch this game these days. More so now that the server I got merged into also is dead. The game’s population is at least 75% bots now. If you don’t log in from 5pm to 10pm you aren’t going to be able to do anything that requires a group. And that’s AGS’ monetization model for this game at work.
It’s all fine in my eyes really. Unlike, those who still play and complain. I actually do have a few MMOs that I jump between to get what I want.
Remember this when New World is back under 10k peak concurrent players worldwide.
Thats the AGS way to keep players buisy and let them grind. They still havent noticed that stuff like this just drives players away.
This is just frustrating for the players and not rewarding at all.
No wonder game is losing thousands of players every month again.
Crafting can be much better if results are bound to the crafter.
But “no one” will want that because botters will be out of a job and RMT will cry and PvP will actually have to play other parts of the game instead of just buying RMT gold to go shopping on the Trading Post.
If we just ignore all these worthless reasons to keep crafting the way it is, there are excellent solutions, such as:
Been trying to craft too but the outcome is just disgusting. No legendaries when rolling 595-600 out of 10-20 attempts is stupid and feels like a lottery. I don’t like gambling so I’ll stop playing the crafting game until they come up with a way to guarantee the crafting outcome even if it means you need to use a lot more mats. Scarabs were a good step forward, but just not enough.
