The Game Needs a Big PvE Content Update

NW is almost on his knees. It reached all time low last week with only 23k total players. Most PvE players left the game. We have been doing dungeons since the launch of the game pretty much. All we’re getting for PvE is nothing but dungeons. Most PvE players are burned out of doing dungeons. Even on the roadmap there’s nothing but a new dungeon for PvE besides the new territory.

This game needs stuff that brings back players and new ones in. Just look at how few players the Tempest Heart dungeon update brought in (barely anyone came back for it.) It made even more people abandon the game, and most of these players were PvE players. All the people I used to run mutation dungeons with stopped playing the game in the last few weeks. We do not need another dungeon to be upscaled. You guys have this huge awesome looking open world, but it’s mostly empty and there’s not much to do in it. Why not make it have dynamic events with open world bosses and have more events like the winter event? It’s a shame to see this awesome open world go to waste.

Give us 20-30 man raids. This would bring back so many players. Most of us are sick of doing dungeons. PvE desperately needs something different, new, and refreshing. At this point there’s so little to lose, you have to go all in and come up with bigger content updates that would make people consider coming back. Make the open world interesting and dynamic. Give us more stuff to do in the open world. Show it some love. It’s a big part of the game and you guys treat it like a stepchild. Even mounts would bring players back. I know many PvP players will cry about mounts, but if it’s implemented correctly, it’s going to be a huge Quality of Life change for a lot of people.

As you can see from the numbers, not many are interested in the small updates that barely have any new content in them. You guys need to shift your focus onto improving the endgame and adding more to it. PvP players already have enough stuff to do, it’s the PvE players that are suffering and losing interest in the game due to lack of stuff to do. All there is for PvE players are the same couple dungeons that have been in the game since launch and the new dungeon that has the same copy paste enemies we fought previously. Like I said, most of us do not want more dungeons, we want new and more interesting stuff.

For the past few months, pve has been the main focus of content. There has been 0 attention to pvp. The community in pve centered games looks towards new content and burns out on it and thinks the game is boring afterwards. Then the request for new content never ends. Just play what you want then take a break until more content comes. Its an MMO, new content always comes. It just is a matter of time.

Agree they should focus on more pve content , pvp is same as always not gona change alot or get alot of players , maybe 10% of ech games care about pvp in first place , ags should be hurry and make a com back with a big content update , raid,/open world bosses etc and also give a meaning to dungeons… Basic dungeon drop same item as mutatos … Diffrent between them is umbral shard there is nothing special to force people to do mutato or even they need to do … There is 0 meaning

Not only is he on his knees, but he bends his back…

With an ever decreasing player population, New World is not far from closing down…
It’s only a matter of time.

Theory crafting wont get you anywhere. If you don’t like the game then leave it, if you love the game then stick with it. But trying to convince others the game is dying is just a silly mentality.
