If I were you I’d play it man, it’s honestly a great game but when you get to endgame it get’s VERRRRRRRRY STALE. I have all crafts maxed, all my bis classes. I literally quit the game today after 1.5k hours and started playing anything other than new world. I love the game but for now I had to abandon it due to there being literally nothing to do, expeditions are boring as hell and played out, PVP has literally no content, everyone uses the same class. If your new to MMO’s I would say check it out, but you’ll realize later on this game is missing tons of content, * cough cough* PVP!
They just can’t close the project. Otherwise, this is a failure of the whole studio. Then the stigma of failure will hang.
Or not.
How many years did Amazon lose money? Such a failure of a company they are.
Don’t fool yourself into thinking this. If it doesn’t make business sense to keep it running they will stop it. Yes they will keep the servers live but they will stop all development if it’s costing too much and not making a return.
I love this game and hope it lives a long and healthy life. I hope development picks up and gives people hope.

Ignoring performance issues, Game is on a good spot.
Not even a single realistic mmo with action combat is comming in the Closer future. Those Big names are not direct competitors, many people cant move back to another type of combat since new world is also a fact.
We Will see another population growment once ppl check those new titles and cant feel fully satisfied.
2023 gonna be a interesting year, thats for sure.
I think people can be very satisfied with a game with all kinds of combat, New World combat is okay but it’s not killing great MMOs. Don’t kid yourself, and it’s lacking content in a major way.

NW needs to be polished
but time is running out 
The thing is many people still have the idea that a new mmo will appear and magically will bring all kind of mmo players toghether for another decade on the same game, but it will not happen never ever again. Mostly replay the same game for nostalgia or simply as a daily habit.
Neither confuse me with a white knight of AGS, i’ll never buy any product from this company nor pay a single euro for a expansion untill they show proper manners on their acts.
Yep, not a chance they’ll shut down NW. They already flopped with Crucible and shutdown that down ~3 months after release.
No way they’ll publicly admit they’re 0/2 with games.
It’s clear NW is going towards maintenance mode, but they’ll keep it around.
A lottttttt of people are just looking for massive open world pvp that doesnt lag. And/or competitve/ranked/MMR/yoloqueue with a good class/balance system thats actively being worked on.
Hell it can even be instanced. It just needs to be available and once again, Not lag. Or desync. Whatever studio or game does this first with UE5 will change the gaming world, and then HOPEFULLY itll start a new standard and were in for the golden days era of video games.
Thats of course if corporate monetization and passionless devs can keep their hands off.
Definitely some cope and hopium in there, but wouldnt it be nice?

regardless of how anyone feels about it(love or hate), the game looks like it’s well and truly in a death spiral now
Looks like they’re still hiring new people though. Look at their careers page.
Oh man thanks!
That looks really dope.

I think yes. The posts are very rude with the game and devs. The critics are high. The features AGS implement are not the favourites or expected in first place by players.
But
I have to admit that the game changed a lot from what it was to what it is now.
I think the changes they implement are very significant and good.
I think New World is going to get better and better, that is for sure.
But sometimes is like a race. Is like if new world devs doesn’t find the next right feature to really catch a lot of players before they all leave then is going to die.
In my opinion I have the feeling that new world is like a step behind to give with the right feature that would bring players to play for a long time.
I think the problem right now is that most of the content requires a lot of grinding. The crafting system is also based on grinding. And I think if they change this kind of stuff it will make the game better.
I’m playing again after some months of pause. I’m doing some pve, trying to be more active in a guild to do wars, but my main activities are OPR and Arenas. Even if I’m very mediocre.
I wish I would get more umbral shards doing this activities to level up my gear GS.
