Thanks! I also highly doubt that some of these things will make it. They are things that constantly get brought up though.
Maybe you are right about everything you said, but dude, you seem completely depressed. Why are you spending time with the game that you clearly see no future for? It’s a genuine question. If nothing good will happen to the game, what are you then staying around for?
This list seems more like some good fan fiction. Some of the points are so far fetched that even my dog could not retrieve them…

The biggest issue I have with the folks deciding what to do and what not to do with NW is that I have noticed that some of the most influential people within AGS have never touched WoW before. I have watched them struggle to find where the mount button is in the game and how to do basic things.
How are we going to cater to the mmorpg community with this complete lack of understanding of the basics.
The first thing FF14 devs did was play WoW from start to end.
If you don’t wanna sub to the live game, I suggest you create your own private classic WoW server and play internally starting with the vanilla game.
buddy whos a whale was on a recent investor call with Amazon; investors want to know why the games monetization isnt offering boosts and better cash shop incentives as that model is the best for quarterly revenue generation.
Needless to say the QER will dictate the monetization of the game after the PvE revamp.
Im fine with it of course games are about making money which is why the developers switched gears from the original design in the first place.
There are many ways to monetize without involving player power or progression. Let’s think of a few ways besides what we currently have in the shop:
- Character customization
1.1 Facial changes
1.2 Hair changes
1.3 Name Change - Transmog system
2.1 Pay for a token that allows you to convert an gear piece into a cosmetic item
2.2 Pay for a more expensive token that allows you to convert a complete gear set into a cosmetic set - Mount system
3.1 Buy mount skins
3.2 Buy skins for mount equipment - Swimming/Diving system
4.1 Bikini skins
4.2 Tool skins - Toys
- Building profession
6.1 Buy a physical land for yourself (non-instanced)
6.2 Buy a physial piece of land for your company (non-instanced)
6.3 Buy tools/things needed to build something really special and unique - More character slots
- Faction specific cosmetics
- Farming/gardening tools/plants…etc
Add the above features/systems only to paid expansions that get released once every two years.
why not both?
Games are a business and we want the developers to make money right?
dont forget the twitch and prime verticals
maybe xp boosts for prime sub but the higher tier prime sub ofc
Thats when the game will die. Maybe in a few years they might get away with it, but first it needs to create a massive following.
Go play other mmos then. The world wasn’t built around people sitting on giant dragons. All of the pathing was built around people walking to places. This game would be outrageously ugly and just lose it’s identity because everyone wants every damn game to be exactly the same.
Not saying we should have dragons everywhere, just one dragon boss would be nice to have. Just because NW doesnt have them, it doesnt mean Im gonna go play other games…NW is the fresh new immersive world many have been waiting for.

Ooooh, my bad. Dragons as a raid boss or something is totally cool. I thought you said people should be using them for mounts.

For mounts, horses only would fit well, anything other than that would start to look out of place and the more variety there is the more the entire mount collection gets devalued. Which is exactly what happened in WoW.
There is something special about having a very limited number of mount types that you can customise but without completely altering the original look.

So this was only hinted at at the dev update yesterday.
We might be getting a temporary server as an option to log into while waiting in queue to get into your actual server.
So you get to play NW while waiting in queue to play NW!
Idc if it’s hopes and dreams. It’s a good asf list
For me it would be 4 things.
- Wars accessible like OPR and gear matters fully, max 5man groups(or maybe even max 2ppl).
- Set loadouts to chose
- Bigger Mobvariety
- Shop rotation is way too long, more skins, more ingame variety of looks. Skins could be like 20% cheaper to actually get them sold. People literally just buy stuff for the sake of looking a lil different even a year after. Like cmon, this is how you make money. Just look at league lol

That’s… not what she said? I guess I see how the rest of the list was generated.
She was referring to an easier way to transfer when the server is full as right now you have to log onto the server to transfer. (I would personally assume through some store method in the launcher.)
Lol, yup, now you know how the list was generated indeed! Different people hear different things XD
sorry but its too long man
i cant read something that long
but good work anyway ^^
I love the fact that they’re scaling players to 600 gs in Arena and opr. This is a amazing change that will make pvp more accessible. But I think not scaling down the players who has 625 back to 600 is a mistake that will bite them in the ass later. They’re creating more work for themselves when they do inevitably increase the gearscore higher and higher. Sure, they can adjust it, but at that point, they might as well make 600 the standard gs for pvp. Even if it’s a small advantage, it sets a precedent that caused Players like Joshog to irreparably destroy low level pvp early in the game’s release because they think their gear should matter more than their skill.
They are not scaling down 625’s to 600 and letting them have a slight gear advantage with the extra 25 gear score plus whatever powerful perks they might have because they worked hard for it.
2v2-5v5 arena, what is your source on this?
