I left New World, why I am back

Same, it has something.
I can become immersed in it, experience flow and enjoy myself.

The trick is not listening to the youtubers and playing it the way the designers intended.

Enjoying OPR but my hatchet, hammer build isn’t serving me well in the pew pew fights that are becoming the new OPR meta. Hence I’m on the forums.

Welcome back and I am the same with the rest here who says there us something in this game that just attracts me.

I tried this game late january while waiting for FFXIV major content patch. I thought I would only try playing around a short while but instead got hooked lol.

I look forward to the slew of “i’m back posts.” In the future, and the “why I’m leaving posts on the Lost Ark forums” :wink:

But seriously. I think New World is at it’s best when players have as many options as possible for progression. This is what made the 1-60 experience fun for me, and with the february patch and the incoming march changes, its feeling more like that original experience again.

Agree. Leveling in new world is one of the best I had in an mmo in a long time. You can level by doing main quest, crafting, gathering or just even town and faction quests. Very versatile experience.

The time you came back, 5 - 10K players left.

I on my hand still have high hopes for this game… as start is a little bit rocky… things are finnaly moving in right direction.

We will get great march update, we will get roadmap…

It is true, i do not rush things (do not have so much time also)… and atm i am lvling profesions… and really having fun.

So ill stick to it for like few more months and then see… hope it goes on ESO path (rocky start, but really great on the long run)

Great feedback man! I never left, but I have to say the last 2 patches are great. They have listened to the community and are moving this game in a much more favourable direction! Well done @Developer and @Community-Team for enduring the rage :rofl:

Does that chart include the PTR?

If it doesn’t, then it wouldn’t be accurate.

Yeah, that’s really what I loved about it, I didn’t have to worry about learning how the game worked 1-60. Obviously you could min/max. But for me, I just had to log in and do literally anything and I’d feel like I was making progress. Main quest, side quest, town quests, faction quests, crafting, pvp, dungeons. Since the game took care of all this, I felt like I was relieved from the work and free to just live in an open world, explore, and have fun.

Agree. I think on this aspect they are pretty successful. Even now at lvl 60 I still try to mix it up. Some days I log in to just gather and craft a bit, some days elites chest runs on another day dungeons. I tend to play a lot at the moment though because I am really loving it and tend to do a litte bit of everything lol.

Yes, been pleased with the february patch which really opened up late end game to viable options outside mutations. Feeling more like my 1-60 experience, and excited to see the march patch too.
