So i have now officially clocked a few hundred hours in this game. Been 60 for a while. Have plenty of lvl 200 professions and i gotta say this game is lacking content heavy. Out post rush is just not fun. Its the same map same boring mode. The dungeons are to easy and dont give any rewards. It pretty much feels like a farm simulator at lvl 60 because all i can do is log on and do daily cd crafts, possibly play an outpost rush. Picking flowers or cutting trees is not the ideal fun not going to lie. Its sad because i love the combat system and i really want to keep playing but theres just nothing to do. They really need to add a ranked arena because alot of the people playing this game came from wow and we need a mode to be the best in. Theres just not enough content at end game and unfortunately me and all my friends are going to have to drop newworld till they make this game an actual full game. Sorry amazon but really believed in ur game but i dont think ur going to succeed. This game is dying and FAST. And it will not survive much longer with its lack of content. How ever good luck to anyone else that hasnt reached my point in progress, youll see what im talking about once you get there. Newworld is trash.
Got over 650 hours of ingame time - there is so much more to do for me… I only scratched the surface. For example, I never played a dex, int or foc build and have only one crafting profession on lv200.
What are you doing?!?
Ok, first, that text wall hurts my eyes. Fix it!
True, the game does not have much content compared to other polished games like say, Lost Ark that NA has content for several months of gameplay. Crazy game… Can’t wait for it to come out.
On the other hand, NW barely has content for like 500-600 hours. Because the current pve content was improvised in like a year. Also, they gonna make crafting even harder so…
If you are done with the current content… yeah gotta wait for new stuff. Looking at the steam charts, it seems there is a tens of thousands of people waiting for new content / improvements as well.
Have you read about all the stuff they are adding to the game?
Remember when Sea of Thieves came out? Fun game, but a little lacking in content. Now look at it 3 years later, I think it just hit 25 million players over the summer and its been one of the top games on Steam and Xbox for a long time. New World is following a similar path, and I see a bright future in Aeternum.
Do they have a plan for the game written out somewhere?
Its called getting bored. Not everyone wants the same thing so for some the boredom kicks in way before 650 hours played.
For some multiple builds but the same character is not fun. For some crafting is the most boring thing possible. Good content is needed for different playstyles.
There wont be any major change soon. If you cant enjoy the game in the current state, just leave.
The last post in the developer corner talks about things they are adding.
They are. XD
That’s not content.
There is probably things to do, I just don’t see any reason to do it. That’s a dangerous thought process in an MMO, when the players start thinking about a reason to go on.
Which I haven’t found in New World. I stopped at level 45 because the game didn’t offer anything.
As asmongold said, they need to provide us with a road map of the direction they plan to take the game. Cause right now it seems like they could just kill off their active playerbase by implementing heavy handed and tone deaf changes.
Really …Asmongold says and all bow to his might
Laughable
600 + hours in and i have lots more to do
Maybe you are better suited to single player games .
Whether you like the guy or not is irrelevant. He prefaced his video saying it would only be a PvE review and, overall, it was unbiased and echoed the feelings of most people on my server.
Maybe they could fix dem bugs / exploits / mechanics / weapons / skill trees / impossible drops / broken spawns / economic crises / permadeath / invincibility things first.
I’d like to see that before I see new content.
There’s plenty of content!
All you have to do is read all the quest text in a silly voice when the original voice acting stops. That just never gets old.
Even better, have friends and family join in, maybe spice things up with some finger puppets and extemporaneously replace the original quest descriptions with your own humorous storylines and dialog inventions.
Better still, if you’re really serious about getting the most out of New World, you can create your own quests, monsters, dungeons and world maps, roll dice to fill out your character sheets, adjudicate combat and magical effects and you can keep track of everything with pencil and paper.
See? There’s no end to how much content this game has to offer, and if you can’t see that, you have only yourself to blame.
New Discord server!
There’s really no harm in just taking a break for now and checking back in in a month or 3 once there’s been some new content patches.
Endgame content is a bit thin right now, so if you feel like you’ve done what the game has to offer you for now, no reason to burn yourself out and forcefully try to keep playing. Just go play something else in the meantime.
The barrier to relog in at any time is very low with this game, considering you won’t be facing the need to resubscribe.
No I wont just leave but thank you for the suggestion.
