uhmmm no? i dont spend hours on farming and crafting for the perfect gear set only to get it broken in the future only to buy ur crap.
Game is too easy, this patch was like event, people just checked and now they gone again. Same story will be with FFS people will join and leave. 98% of modern players are no interested, to stay with 1 game most of them are bored after month/2 months. Only few MMO’s players will stay at one title…
This! You can Finish the new brimstone content in a few hours.
Most asked question on many platforms Imho is “im 60 now what to do?”
Well, there is a Lack of PvP content, cause AGS focused enterely on PvE. So you can do Dungeons and mutated dungeons.
Imho people leave cause they dont get what they expected PvP endgame content.

I think most of them left, because they left more like " Ok I finished game it was fun time for another". Devs can add 5 new pvp contents an they will leave again after month. Even if someone them were pretty lucky got BIS gears in this month or 2 months…
Imho PvP content Last longer, cause people try to get to the top and try to adapt and get better.
On the other Hand PvE content gets boring real fast cause it’s Always the Same Shit.

Well people are leaving again, but not at all for the reasons the OP posted.
So you think one of the 2 reasons people are leaving is because there armor does not break or need to be replaced?
That’s ridiculous not to mention that is a horrible idea, oh and I don’t care about PVP most of the player base don’t, you are not in touch with the player base at all lol.
They’re leaving because another MMO has new content dropping and everyone always rotates their MMO attention based on latest content drops.
They’ll be back to New World when New World has another big content drop.
You PvE or PvP? PvE? agreed, PvP? Definitely not. The PvP scene has changed drastically.
Find all these, “light armor is trash,” posts and you’ll see evidence of the devs trying to balance out OPR.
Tbh I think they are leaving because people nowadays don’t stick to games for a very long time like before. They keep switching between games like they change underwear. If tomorrow another game is released or has a major update, they will be there. Ofc NW needs more content, but even games with lots of content this happens. I’m not surprised at all.
Technically that would be a form of pvp so win win? 
Truth is, returning players are leaving the game, simply because they completed brimstone sands and the new dungeon.
These are people that are long searching for “The MMO” that will never exist, and just hop in and out of games with hopes to get fullfiled.
Trying to replicate a feeling that once existed, but doesn’t anymore, because either the industry is different or they’ve grown.
These won’t persist in a game long enough to actually appreciate it. These are jacks of all trades, masters of none.
Population still grown, which is what matters. New World has had worse days.
Bye to all who leave, and i hope you find what you’re looking for some day.
simple reason people may leave is because the game shifted from make your own content and we will give you tools and gameplay to have fun with to we will spoon-feed you content and make you earn the tools and gameplay items you need to have fun.
well there isn’t enough spoonfed content and the tools and items are heavily RNG and time gated creating artificial friction because there the burn is faster than the churn.
it’s why you focus on gameplay and open systems because then players make their own content.
a good world pvp scene would help the pvp side.
PvE well that’s a bit harder because until we have machine learning ai controlling the mobs it will always be static and stale.
once mobs can be dynamic in their fight patterns that PvE can be more engaging wo the need for constant content churn.
it wasn’t a mistake to focus on pve content but there’s only so much you can add before ppl burn through it all.
also ppl make the mistake of thinking brimstone was an expansion and not a free dlc that was preplanned before the launch of the game set to drop in the first 4 mos of launch, there are 3 other zones also that were planned that was the real yr 1 roadmap before they stopped all of that to give mutations and expertise.
Nothing in the game has changed when it comes to PVP outside of the devs screwing with numbers and adjusting things to create balance.
Here is the issue, I have played Black Desert since launch, still play even today almost 6 years. The devs are STILL constantly changing numbers and %s to try and balance things as best they can… you tweak this, then that becomes OP… you nerf that… now these are all OP… you buff that… now these players are upset.
It is a vicious circle that never ends and never honestly brings balance to the game, just the illusion of it.
For PVP to honestly be interesting… they would need INTERESTING PVP battles and scenarios… fighting for a boring ass keep to own territory that gets you no real perks past easy money from a broken system doesn’t infer good PVP, or even revamped PVP… it is the same boring game loop with slightly adjusted DPS numbers

The biggest problem with open world PVP is that no one that goes out farming has gear that is PVP focused gear. They go out in harvesting or mining gear and turning on PVP is only for that extra bit of luck so that they can get something rare.
No one that farms with PVP on does it because they want the PVP experience.
Ya, I know, I’m a community manager on devaloka’s Discord server, and do you know what I hear the most from players? Is that NW doesn’t have enough pvE. Actually, only a small group carry about pvp, at least from those that actually speaks to me. Everyone tells me how they would love bigger raids, world bosses, more dungeons, boss trials, more roleplay quests, more events. They wanna explore the world, play and make friends. The only pvp they actually like is OPR.
I’m not saying devaloka is a pvE server but ya, pvp isn’t priority for many.
They are leavg because they see new world suffers from the same issues since release. Open world PVP activities ‘a flag is here, go get the flag and bring it to this place, hold for 5 minutes, then bring it totown’
and also the weapon bug , riposte glitches, weapon queue, roll bugs, etc. Desync is the biggest killer in this game right now.
luck needs to be removed as a whole. Its a stupid gimmick. Its not even luck on rng, it just puts you in the drop table. its very stupidly done.
I can’t speak for everyone, but willing to bet a lot more people would actually stop playing if they spent 200k on a piece of gear that can break and not repaired and have to buy a new one. I don’t know any top mmo that allows gear to break without being able to repair and buying new gear due to this.
Not only that, there is a lot of good gear dropping from pve. So people are supposed to re-farm for that also?
So yeah. I am very glad gear doesn’t perma break. Also, seems to me people are always buying new gear still. This is the first I heard someone complain about it.
