All the typical apologetic YT personalities are awfully quiet today. I wonder why ? Hmmm. I would bet money the Demones of the world wont even cover the fact AGS is making changes that will actively kill their game.
Demones?
Or are you talking about Demone Kim? He already reported on this…

I did, he talked about the new score system? What are you on about specifically?
Wait are you one of the people seeing this image posted around on the forums and thinking you will loose your HWM once the new system comes out?
If so did you also see the counter to this from the same exact customer service rep?
Or maybe this showing that currently there is no express knowledge yet on what exactly is happening…
Or are you mad about something completely different. Let us know specifically what your gripe is, we all want to know dearly.

Since New World’s launch, we’ve heard the feedback from our community that the HWM system was not communicated effectively, promotes a single monotonous activity, had too much randomness, and was a bit too grindy. So, we are completely revamping the system to address these concerns. This new and improved HWM system is called Expertise.
In the December update, Expertise will govern the highest drops you can get per slot, much like HWM did. But starting in early 2022, it will also govern the effectiveness of your gear. This means if your War Hammer Expertise is 520, and you equip a 550 Gear Score War Hammer, the weapon’s effective Gear Score will be reduced to 520. While we understand to some players this may result in a temporary reduction in power, we believe in the long run this will result in more rewarding progression loop that can’t be bypassed by buying gear off the trading post.
its convenient none of the simps on YT have covered this.
No you dropped 50 images and this idiot spammed Aladdin.

Nope, not that specifically. I would bet he does though.
Did he go back in and edit himself covering the fact that they are taking players progress…he never covered this portion.
Too funny!
