New Cash Shop Items for a 3 Weeks old Game with no Endgame

all of those guys even dont understand that its the hardcore players who keep games alive, not the casuals who take ages to level up.
there are even people saying everyone who was 60 much faster than them would have skipped content the game has to offer… right, cuz its a whole different content if i would have made side quests that give 1/4 of the exp but takes 5 times as long as townboards and which are absolutely the same.
others are claiming people like me would be elitists just because we play efficiently and possibly understand things quicker and therefore learn faster. in the end the statement comes down to “if you play smart youre playing the game wrong”. like anyone could tell someone else how to play a game.
there is so many nonsense around here, mostly of low level players who cant even tell yet, that the game would have so much endgame content to do. the simple truth is: it got none. 0.
endgame content is content that is supposed to be done as soon as u rech max level. its right in the name. everything, absolutely everything u can do at 60 in the current state is stuff u are already doing during leveling process.
how much the game is lacking of endgame content is already seen the moment you hit 60.
the very irst thing ud do as soon as u ding max level is doing your 580 weapon quest chain.
for all the people who have a lot of opinions about endgame but are not 60 yet: u are literally killing low level mobs. since theres a lack of actual quest ideas, a lot of them. every single quests of those quest lines are kill 35x level 35 elites. kill 38 level 40 elites. kill 45 level 50 elites. and so on. every single quest chain for every weapon is also basically the same since the amount of elite zones in low levels is limited.
the moment the very first thing ud do at max level is already getting sent back to a level 30 zone having to kill mobs that u 1shot is content? give me a break.

its ridiculous how peoples egos are hurt just because others are faster than them and ignoring the actual point its about. there. is. no. endgame. content. at. all.
there has never been an mmo released with litereally no endgame.
the reason you are able to play this game in the first place right now is that the only reason this game was already released that blizzard is struggling hard with world of warcraft and this is something new that players can do since those players are craving for a new game to play.
if wow wouldnt be in a bad place right now new world would have been delayed just another time. this was simply the best launch window they could have ever imagined.

if actual endgame content isnt the priority atm the servers will be dead within 4 to 6 weeks once all the casuals reach level 60 and realize that all those “elitists” on the forums were right.
im wondering how much fun all those shiny knights will have in this game in a scenario like that.

id like the game to live on, im not sure about you guys tho.

get your things together so u might realise that the hardcore players are keeping games alive and not you casuals. if the hardcore players wont be there would be nothing for you folks to come back to after x months.

Agreed I just logged in and gave all my stuff away to some lucky dude that got 3 storages full of gems metal and cook mats I’m done for at least a year

Yeah you’re right. Still gotta take it easy tho. You do gotta understand not all “casual players” are like the filthy casuals, I gotta pay for my PC building hobby lol. Yeah i’m gonna be dissapointed when i hit 60 and there’s little to do. I only play games for hardcore content, even if it’s 5 hours a day.

They are not going to give you cookie points for sucking up lol. My guess you are lvl 40 and have not even tried endgame yet.

Best part for me was realizing that one skin costs a whopping £15! That’s almost half of the price of the game itself :laughing: £5 would’ve been acceptable but there is no way I’m paying three times that without even knowing if the game will get fixed any time soon.

First off you’re rude candor won’t win you any points with devs or players so maybe learn a life lesson about how to get what you want.

Secondly if you think a few art people and 3D designers are holding up other content you’d be wrong…those jobs usually more easily work ahead of programmers and it shows what little understanding you have of game development and why you should probably put a cork in it.

Furthermore the $40 box price means you’ve maybe spent .20 cents per hour you’ve played and you’re complaining about them looking for more cash on a game that they’ve likely not even broke even on development costs for yet.

Not to mention people like these kinds of seasonal cosmetic adds and nobody is going to want pumpkins and witch stuff in November.

TLDR: Adding a few seasonal cosmetic items to a cash shop isn’t hurting anything development wise, is likely wanted by some, and really just an overall silly childish complaint. At a $40 box cost if all they add to the store is cosmetic items and server transfers I for one will be glad when many games monetize character development and leveling which just kills the experince.

Dude you played almost 300 hours of this game in less than a month?
Thats more than enough content for the start of this game.

Maybe you should do something else with your time than live for New World.

Fairly certain the art team not only doesn’t work on game content, but that they also had all of this stuff already in the game, since I was able to preview the weapons on day 1.

I dont get how people can say its no end game, I mean I run dungeons/farm/craft/achivmentruns/go to elite zones/wars/invasions like are you guys just sitting afk until your 4man squad come in to farm elites and when you done with daily elite chest you just complain?

I really wonder whats the mindset is for “end game” in a 3 weeks game, you guys really thought you would have 12 raids/20+ world bosses/50+ dungeons to run? and 10 pvp zones there its just a bloodbath?

Mabye should add to Im about to hit 320h ingame (the achivment, not steam)

Show us your 600 gearscore and all your professions maxed to 200…and your decorated houses in each city, with max storage, and all your titles…and all recipies learned…and lore found.
Are you really out of content? or did you smash past the content in a zerg like effort to get to 60 and miss what the game is about entirely…

GOOD! the sooner toxic players leave the better for the rest of us =)

That’s what yall always say till u you realize you’re playing alone

The people who stick around will be the ones who ENJOY the process, not the ones who want to smash to “endgame” and min/max the fun out of everything. i would rather play with one thousand players like that than 1 million toxic streamer types, who have to make everything suck for themselves then complain and demand the devs change everything to suit their inability to just relax and enjoy the journey.

I’m anything but a min maxer lol grinding don’t bother me 1 bit either lol but like anything else not everyone will enjoy it in this case it’s clear your chosen to put on rose color glasses I’m picking to come back when it’s a actually game and not a alpha version of a game

343 hours in. 200+ hours as a level 60. Endgame sucks. Good thing there is no subscription, because I would have canceled before month 2.

I’m pretty sure they already had the cash shop items and are just rolling them out little by little rather than dumping everything they have on the shop all at once.

Same with the limited time thing… adds urgency for people to buy before “it’s gone forever”

Do you really think there has been a team of designers feverishly designing new cash shop stuff the past 2 weeks and they just got these done and added them to the shop?!? ROFL

I agree with you completely, but the only caveat is is that they are separate teams. The people creating those items in the shop also aren’t the devs creating the game.

While it would be nice to think that they would never do that, it’s just separate work loads on separate people.

Its Amazon, AMAZON, did you really expect anything else?

You forgot to mention when they demand change and get it, they leave and we are the ones who have to deal with the change that we might not like.

You do know that these Cash Shop items were planned for Halloween WITH the release of New World, right?

I went peaking through the skins on launch and the Bloodthirsty Count googles were already in the skin selection screen even before they were released, which means these were already planned for holiday season.

So you’re whole “THEY SHOULD BE WORKING ON THE GAME INSTEAD OF CASH SHOP ITEMS” cry is kinda invalid, kid.

Plus people have been asking for some type of Halloween event and the devs already said they weren’t doing an event to instead focus on bug. I think the Halloween themed items were neat. Cry more.
