I said this on another video but i think it's applicable here too: So, I'm not sure if I'm alone in this opinion, but some of the data I've heard from the devs in this game and other games makes me think I am not the only one. But for me, the idea of an ARPG that's playable as a solo player, but taking place IN a shared multiplayer world is exactly what I'm looking for from an MMO these days. I have logged thousands of hours in Guild Wars 2, and as much as I love the combat in that game, there are many time gated, or game mode gated things about the game I don't like. Forcing me into grouped multiplayer content is just not something I'm looking for in a game these days. I don't have time to actively participate in a guild or be beholden to raid schedules and forced group content, just to be able to achieve anything in a game. Yes, there are maybe better ARPGs out there, but as someone who also logged hundreds of hours in Elden Ring, the multiplayer aspect is one of the big draws. (And I think the massive success of the Seamless Coop mod would reinforce that) I am a 43 year old dad who only has a few hours to play, late at night after the wife and kid are in bed. And it's extremely frustrating to be prevented from being able to make any personal progression on gear, crafting, gold generation or any other personal in game goal, simply because I am REQUIRED to have coordinated group participation to achieve those goals. But I also really enjoy logging in to do my grind, and seeing other people in the world doing their thing. I'm sorry to break it to all the old school MMO lovers out there, but it's not 2004. We're not about to raid Molten Core for the first time and never gonna recapture that same feeling again. I:m not 16 anymore and i dont have the time for that game. But i do have a much bigger wallet than i did at 16, which means i am willing to pay to support a game that can allow me to have a little bit of that MMO vibe, and still make progress in my own game. I wrote off New World when it first came out because of all those well documented issues in its release. But this new single player focus that has been emphasized for this rebrand has me extremely interested if this might NOW be the game for me. As beautiful as T&L looks, I just can't get down with bad combat and movement, p2w, and complicated gearing and progression systems that are full with noob traps. This game having (by all accounts) really solid combat, excellent crafting systems, soloable storyline and now an emphasis on repeatable end game content that is soloable, really appeals to me. I'm hoping this relaunch breathes a new life into the game. I can totally understand the frustration of the players that have been left in the vine since the game released these last few years. But for me as someone who's never played a single minute of the game, I am hyped to see the game for what it is today and I fully intend to be there giving it a look, seeing the full package for the first time on Oct 15. The current state of the game appeals to me in ways it never did before.
I think this is where New World finally finds a community that enjoys it, the console players will finally have a comfy MMO to play. Super excited to be able to play the game with console friends who i have never been able to play the genre with as well.
@@regulator18Ebro 😂 I’ll tell you 1. ESO, gameplay is OK but PvP is fucking broken, people 1v20 ing with infinite healing wtf is that? Plus graphics look ASS 2. FFXIV: Console UI and gameplay is really bad, tab targeting games in console suck dick. Plus PvP in ff is meh non existent 3. BDO best graphics but again, 357 menus to look on a controller feels really, REALLY bad It’s made like a phone game New world offers good and simplistic action combat something like a souls game (ot at least close to it), graphics, immersive world with the best crafting around and a good not that unbalanced pvp experience So this is the best we have right now on console Hopefully console launch can help the game long term, maybe they will have the funds to add more content
@@regulator18E simplified gameplay ? not 3-4 bars of abilities which is fucked for console ??? Actual action combat and not dogshit tab target. Very very comfy exploration and farming.... The list goes on, want me to keep going ?
As a console player, I have been waiting for a good mmo that is not pvp based. I played the beta on PlayStation 5 and it took me back to my WoW days. I love that the combat is action based and not pseudo turn based. I pre-ordered it after just playing it for a few hours. I’m so excited. The only issue I had is that the graphics are not that great for a game these days, but I am willing to overlook that.
Same, idk i played closed beta aswell and thought that when i heard about the open beta the graphics would be better, now im going with the hope that the graphics are just a beta thing.
I'm going to be playing this on PC and will keep playing up until the release, but yeah I'm also picking it up on console, going to have a second character to enjoy :)
New World is awesome💯 Waited 3 years to finally play and I enjoyed every bit of it. I hope that now, with consoles finally included, AGS will start dropping new ideas like Delves, Public Dungeons and more Trials, and maybe even just making the world scale to level, that way players have reasons to travel all around. I say this as a long, long time ESO player lol since I’ve been on Xbox since like 2012 and eso was my first MMO experience. Trust, every MMO starts off rough, it took ESO 10 years to get to where it’s at and it can still be better. See yall October 15!
I just started watching your channel when I decided to get back into New World last week, I stopped playing 3 months after launch. I came here to learn some more about New World, but I come back for the positivity that you spread. Thank you for just being you. You are great, we need more positive people in this world like you. I look forward to watching more videos and playing New World again.
I'm excited to hear your thoughts after being away for so long. I don't know if you're playing the current live version or just waiting for October, but yeah dude, let me know. Love to hear your thoughts on this.
@@gingerlovesmmos I am playing now, just trying to relearn everything before the console release. I'm showing my friends that it is a game that has something for almost any gamer. Hopefully I'll catch you streaming soon and get your thoughts on some things.
@@gingerlovesmmos thank you so much! The new world beta definitely drew me in. But Throne and liberty vs new world I would really like to hear your opinion on. Honestly the tab targeting combat is the only thing that kinda holds me back from the game. Also I can’t say this enough truly love your hope messages so much! Thank you
i had bought new world when it came out and did not really play much , but i did get back in over the beta weekend, loved it and can't wait until october, love your messages at end of videos, people need more positivity now, thank you
Idk why ppl are whining about target lock. Ffxiv has been using target lock and as a tank/healer you can lock on but if you need to move out of the way of an attack quickly or get to a position quickly for a soak mechanic, you can unlock the target and hit sprint to move out of the way and you can lock back onto boss. Ffxiv players have never whined about it from pc or console. Ppl don’t play MMO’s for PvP. In PvP in ffxiv there is no target lock. It only applies to the PvE content. I almost hate this generation of gamers bc they whine too much. That’s one reason why gaming has become so watered down and monetized “lazy gamers.” As a tank/healer, I lock on and unlock. Any other argp ppl aren’t whining. You’re not whining about target lock in wukong/gow/or anything else. Stop whining about target lock. New world combat has taken some pages from bless unleashed combat even some of the same names and moves and animations. There was target lock you just couldn’t lock on in PvP and a properly built priest was a bigger threat than a zerk. Stop complying and get good. I can’t wait for aeternum to drop next month. Ppl have been whining ever since AGS said they were gonna put aeternum out and this river of tears that ppl are crying is coming from pc players that have 1000+ hours in the game. Obviously, they liked something and kept playing. They’re just sour about something minor and seem to be trying to find every little thing to complain about. To many “GAMING KAREN’S” out there.
FFXIV is a tab target game though so it makes total sense because it's not about actually "hitting" the target it's all about being in range of the target. I have no issue with PvE having target lock, that's kinda helpful and enjoyable, but PvP I don't think should have that type of system or it needs to be adjusted.
@@gingerlovesmmos they can turn it off for PvP, but it won’t be fair bc of the sensitivity difference from mouse to controller. Bless unleashed’s pvp was no target lock and if a person was built right, the zergs were not the biggest problem. The majority of ffxiv don’t play PvP. It’s a small pool of ppl. The majority of players play the pve content.
Clearly, AGS installed the target lock to keep it level between PC and Console. Heres a thought, PC players are very well known for "manipulating " system within a game via mods to benefit then, this can be the same on console tho the parameters to achieve the same is pretty difficult. I say let it be just close the range a bit, because getting destroyed by a musket, blunderbust, magic weapon from a distance would be completely unfair for both parties. Tho i liked that AGS thought process was inclusive with this idea, but it needs a tweek, just a bit.
I have been watching your videos for a couple weeks. I feel I can relate to you and your situation being a father myself. I have 2 young boys and love gaming as well. Very impressed with your videos and love watching them and your messages of hope are inspiring. Thank you!
Thank you dude, and congrats on your two boys, I've got 2 boys and 4 girls so outside of when I get time to game, it's a real treat to game and spend time with my kids.
I want to correct you on something. You said that "the subscription model has been rejected by the majority", and I just want to add that you're referring to the majority of players, as a whole, and not specifically MMO players; and the fact that the two most popular MMOs (WoW and FFXIV) both have monthly subscriptions is proof of that. The MMO community in the west largely agrees that the subscription model is the best business model for MMOs. Love your content. I have a lot of respect for the way you conduct yourself. The line "don't ever really point a finger at anybody else, as the reason why something didn't go well; always point the finger at yourself, and figure out how you could have done something better" was perfectly articulated and is excellent advice. Keep being you ✌
There is reasonable critique and fair push back on things in the game and how the dev has done things, but saying the game is trash is a bridge too far.
Hey I really enjoyed the end message. I feel like I struggle with the 3 strong things you mentioned i struggle with my health and at times put myself down because of my high functioning autism and other stuff to. I also compare myself to others when it comes to stuff even financially it’s a work in progress trying to stop but I do believe I will be good if I put my faith in God. Thank you for your words of encouragement friend
if they're gonna keep target lock they should make it not as strong, like make it lose the lock if the target moves away from your screen, instead of rotating it to follow it.
As a console player that was in the beta and loved my time. I think it would be worthwhile to try it with out lock on and see what needs tuned. This feels like a vast over correction for something that we don't even know was a problem.
I do like the trade-off "option" for using lock on. As a mainly PC PVE player, even I think that target lock has to be reworked/tweaked. And like you added ...maybe using it kicks in a debuff to damage dealt or whatever. The toxic environment of MMOs in general is one of the reasons why I'm trying out FF14. I've only been playing for a few weeks now and haven't subbed yet, but the few folks I've interacted with have been nice and helpful.
As always great and positive video you point out the flaws but staying constructive its rare. To be honest although im now a super casual NW player i just stick arround your vods for the good energy even as a Lab psychologist i need someone to give me a positive space too. We need more Content creators that spread a good message these days please continue to be you, because you probably make a world of difference to many more than a therapist ever could.
Thank you so much dude, and I'm going to keep doing my best, keep me in your prayers and I'll be keeping you and all those who watch my videos in mine. :)
it would be cool if there was a heavy debuff towards players that way it gives players the incentive to free aim. full damage against npcs and some kind of nasty heavy percentage against players. something around 40 to 60 percent. lazy shots = graze type wounds
I also really enjoy this game, I’ve played from the beginning. My biggest complaint is the economy. I hate that you pretty much have to do all the professions to make good gear. Economies work because we have to buy and sell our specialties to one another. I would like to know who crafted the piece I’m thinking of buying. I really wish crafting was less RNG.
How are the console players supposed to compete with PC users without target locking? I have 2k hours into New World on PC but I enjoyed it more on consoles and I have to say that having to target with a controller is much harder! If they take out target looking then console player's will be used for target practice.
the fact that they broke 725 GS gear crafting 3 perks of your choice with prism scarab in the next update to raid gear only with only 2 perks is ridiculous. God, i hope the raid is easy so ppl just make rush groups and get the full gear in a few weeks.
Aeternum has PvP target lock😮, wow, not quite sure I will like that, I’m a console player (PS5) and am fine with aim assist because of how controllers work, most console games have it, but PvP target lock, nah! No thanks. Oh, as long as the game supports it consoles can use KnM. Comparing MMO roadmaps, I’d say that Guild Wars 2 is also a good example with its expansions. Shame it’s not on console so have to use my laptop to play it. Great channel btw and I’ve subscribed just because of your positivity & honesty , we need more such content creators on RUclips. Thank you.
Can someone explain to me the issue with target lock? I haven't played this game yet (i plan to start for the first time on Oct 15) but coming from Elden Ring and other Souls games I just dont understand the issue...those games have huge pvp components to the game, and have always had target lock, and the fact is not only is target lock not some kind of "easy mode" advantage, it actually increases the skill ceiling of the mode...top players know that just locking on to a target and keeping it on is actually not the best for combat, and knowing when to lock on and when to free aim is actually a big part of skill expression. To me, if it becomes a scenario where you just automatically win because you're locked on, then there's bigger issues with the general combat in terms of the frame data, hit boxes, and skill cancellation systems. It actually boggles the mind that this is seen as some sort of auto win cheat, so what am i missing here?
I feel like gamers can get used to anything. When I played SWTOR the PVP had lock on and I still had a lot of fun. Just had to be more strategic. I prefer aim assist for controller for shooters.
To be honest, $15 a month in 2024 is a deal if you enjoy a game. What other media can give you the value for time/money ratio that $15 a month can provide?
I find it funny that people are truly bothered by others who enjoy a game that they themselves dont like. Usually if you dont like something you go about your day and move on but no they rather troll and harass ppl. Crazy times man lol 😂
I think this ytb guy have always been a little bit too much positive over the years, borderline innocent. It has its charm thats for sure and thats fine with me tho
As a 7k plus hour pvper in NW, but this being my first mmo... I've always truly appreciated your "historical" mmo thought process. I want to appreciate that thought process in this video, but ever since I realized playing the beta that tab target has come to NW, that this cutting edge game is going back to 2004. I am 100% unmotivated to even do dailies at this point. It's the wrong decision for this game, a more fundamental change than moving from open word survival to mmo. In my eyes, it's the only thing that should be spoken about. Just another untruth by the lead dev of this game, that I hope will be rectified before this update is released.
They DEFINITELY should ONLY allow target lock for controller, allowing for kbm is insane. Another way to fix the issue of kbm being so much better than controller they can just increase the 'hit boxes' while using controller and shrink it with kbm. That being said the target lock is not that good, PVP streamers are mostly over reacting. You can't even do a head shot with it, maybe make it not crit would be enough also. 30% less damage would be way too much though. But there might be another reason AGS put target lock in PVP for the open beta. It's called the 'king & artist/hairy hand' method, when you are doing something for a terrible customer or crybaby, you purposely put something very bad in (like making a hand in portrait super hairy) so that when your horrible customer inevitably complains about your work, you distract them with something obvious that you can fix quickly so they forget about bitching about other stuff that isn't actually wrong. So now they can just remove 'target lock' in PVP only and make PVPers happy so they don't complain about other stuff. They may have done it on purpose.
I was watching a recent stream of yours recently, and another guy on your stream started kinda bagging on 'born-again Christians', which I found odd. I'm not an aggressive bible thumper or anything, but it was still a bit hurtful. I know you're a Catholic (I am not, but I accept Catholics as my brothers and sisters in Christ), so I was surprised to hear that. Maybe in the future the denigration of any religious group could be avoided.
Can you provide me the timestamp to what you're talking about? Also, if you are baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit you are a Catholic, you're just protesting the authority of the church in some way. But everyone's opinions are welcome even ones we don't like or agree with, it's a call in show after all, if you ever want to join in as well and give your view, open invite :)
@@gingerlovesmmos "New World Aeternum Open Beta Gameplay & My Thoughts on the State of the Game" around 20 minute mark. As for me being a Catholic, nice try. ;-)
I'll check out that timestamp, thank you 🙏 And as for you being Catholic, if your demonization accepts the first 7 counsels then you're right there besides me, I think maybe it's even 6 counsels, but I'll have to ask some of my preacher friends out there to make sure I have it right. But if you're a bible believing Christian, then I don't know how you're anything but Catholic. I'm also enjoying the many ways the protestant churches in my area are coming back to the scriptures and realizing that they threw out perfectly good teachings just because they were "too catholic" which is me using their words by the way. :) Anyway, please never feel intimidated when talking about this stuff with me, I love talking about it, and I hope in no way my words cause you any stress or you feel like I'm being rude, if any of that does occur, please accept my sincerest apologies.
I went and listened to the clip, and I didn't find it denigrating towards born again, but more about their personal experience from that tradition. I didn't get any vibes that he was trying to insult them, more or less communicating that tradition doesn't vibe with his idea of evangelization.
@@gingerlovesmmos Right... I had a feeling as soon as you started trying to proselytize at me, in what I would consider a rather rude way, you'd find no problem with what he said. If someone had slighted Catholicism in a similar way, I'm sure you'd have gotten your dander up and have plenty to say about it. Unlike you, I'm not interested in having silly religious debates online. I don't know the individual you were talking to, is he even a Christian? Sounds like he was against the forceful proselytization of those uninterested, or against those with a strong, outspoken faith. I wonder what he thinks of you? Maybe he was another Catholic, and you two were just engaging in some run-of-the-mill Protestant bashing. Right...

Maybe he was another Catholic, and you two were just engaging in some run-of-the-mill Protestant bashing. I'll just leave you with the plain truth, which anyone can see: you reverence a group of "high priests" who formulated a bloated, ritualistic, excessively dogmatic structure in order to teach and control a bunch of illiterates who, even if they could read, did not have the Word in their mother tongue. I don't judge it as harshly as some, as there is a plain sociological and historical reason for it to exist at one time. But it has outlived its usefulness, and in fact is as harmful as ever to the body of Christ. Regarding your comment regarding evangelicals moving in the direction of Catholicism... I dunno if you've read the end of the book, friend; things get worse before they get better. ;-) The performative, atmospheric "vibe" (as the kids call it) of your particular faith probably does attract many babes in Christ who've unfortunately been stuck in goofy megachurches for most of their lives... out of the frying pan and into the fire, as they say. There's also a huge resurgence of interest in Gnosticism and the Orthodox church, what do you think that means? Catholics are going to the Orthodox in droves, for many of the same reasons (minus the obviously deluded and confused Papa. Another red flag there… I have one spiritual Father. You have some untold number, it seems.) Still, I hold my tongue unless someone asks my opinion, and at the very least don't make a video about video games and then go into a rant into my disagreements. That kind of thump-em-over-the-head bible thumping does no good. Christ taught us to be fishers of men... do you club the fish? No, you use bait, you are gentle, you lure them in with a steady hand. Not this bombastic polemics that attack people, instead of the ideas. Whatever crusade you think you’re on, where you can casually insult other Christians, you’re sorely mistaken. You are in no position. I'm sure you wont find the above denigrating at all.. in the end, I guess your flippant, ignorant disrespect for my faith just don't vibe with my idea of evangelization. ;-) In the end, you can like it, or you can lump it. Have a good trip.
People crying about target lock on in Pvp it's those people who play one broken build which makes other builds pretty useless. Target lock on in PvP is a great addition to the game because it will make all talents and weapons good in PvP because some weapons do require accurate aim and with that said combat in the new world is not that great because it's clunky. If you want the best action combat - you should've played Tera. Now we got this out of the way, target lock on will make combat in the new world far less clunky and more engaging. If AGS will keep that at lunch and keep that system but improve it it's the best decision they will make. That's the only reason I'm thinking of coming back and playing this game.
Targeting changes are a Mountain out of a mole hill issue. Only a small few are complaining (loudly). Most don't care. 1: the change has no effect on skill. Tabbed targeting is just a different system that is common in many pvp games. It doesn't seem to have ruined them or made them less fun. All will be fine. Tabbed targeting is fun and takes skill to master just like any system. Don't panic. 42
i'm just annoyed that my original character will be rendered useless. people are going to flock to the new servers, and console people will definitely not come to ours. target lock is moronic, also.
AGS is doing this on purpose guys. Aim lock will be released in October unchanged. They’re doing it to get the rest of the whiney pc player base (me included) to stop playing the game entirely, which will work. It was fun while it lasted.
Bro you picked comments for people who didn’t play the game that is insane lol first it locks on the chest and all musket dmg and bows rely on head shot lock on is not an issue at all. Number two throne and liberty is P2w. Paying 5 mins of a game is not paying it lol 😂
I was very competitive in new world and ranked first in Arenas as well as warred consistently. Target lock makes PvP brain dead, and ruins group play | war. Who cares if you aren’t head shotting if you have a whole team of bows hitting their target all the time? This target lock also makes it so if melee players can play blind folded.
@@karefool2494 so you didn’t play it at all gotcha. You were not ranked and there was no player ranking on beta just ranks for doing arenas. Try to bs someone needs else bud. You play to make content then bs answer you have no clue about at all.
Get tf rid of aim lock bruh. How you turn it from a skill based game to Elden ring like I’m some sort of npc mob bot? How are you change the entire combat system. Yes that’s %100 changing the entire combat system. It’s basically world of Warcraft lock on target guarantee hit. Don’t be stupid Amazon change yourself everyone already hates your game now you’re gonna kill it for pvpers?
Personally there's no room for compromise. It doesn't need to be tweaked or nerfed. It needs to be removed. Not on console only. The less dmg idea means nothing when pvp in this game is mostly zergs chasing a player. Imagine 6 to 9 people target locked on one player. Whoever says Target lock is a good idea are literally admitting they need it to be good. It behaves like an aimbot software. Even switching targets mid animations if the first target dies. Controller does need a major sensitivity upgrade because it's just too slow. I'm actually using my steam imput over the native controller because it's better... even without aim assist.
Took the words out of my mouth. Even if they nerf dmg if you use it, in group play it’s still busted. Wars will be just now teams spamming skills and melee getting nutted on
Toxicity comes from good attentions and disapointments mostly. People in this community arent that much toxic lets be real, but people in this community are often saying the truth about this game
I said this on another video but i think it's applicable here too:

Trust, every MMO starts off rough, it took ESO 10 years to get to where it’s at and it can still be better. See yall October 15!
I just started watching your channel when I decided to get back into New World last week, I stopped playing 3 months after launch. I came here to learn some more about New World, but I come back for the positivity that you spread. Thank you for just being you. You are great, we need more positive people in this world like you. I look forward to watching more videos and playing New World again.
I'm excited to hear your thoughts after being away for so long. I don't know if you're playing the current live version or just waiting for October, but yeah dude, let me know. Love to hear your thoughts on this.
@@gingerlovesmmos I am playing now, just trying to relearn everything before the console release. I'm showing my friends that it is a game that has something for almost any gamer. Hopefully I'll catch you streaming soon and get your thoughts on some things.
I’m new too mmo’s and New World. Found your channel and I love the hope messages thank you very much!
Welcome to the channel and to the game. If you ever need anything just let me know.
@@gingerlovesmmos thank you so much! The new world beta definitely drew me in. But Throne and liberty vs new world I would really like to hear your opinion on. Honestly the tab targeting combat is the only thing that kinda holds me back from the game. Also I can’t say this enough truly love your hope messages so much! Thank you
@@gingerlovesmmos oh by the way I have 6 kids between my wife and I too! I feel you on the struggle and reward of parenting
Dude way to be in the 6 timer club. God bless you and your wife dude. I know what it’s like the positive and the exhausted at times 😂
i had bought new world when it came out and did not really play much , but i did get back in over the beta weekend, loved it and can't wait until october, love your messages at end of videos, people need more positivity now, thank you
Well said. It's so much easier for someone to be mad and Vent everywhere online instead of putting out positive vibes.
Idk why ppl are whining about target lock. Ffxiv has been using target lock and as a tank/healer you can lock on but if you need to move out of the way of an attack quickly or get to a position quickly for a soak mechanic, you can unlock the target and hit sprint to move out of the way and you can lock back onto boss. Ffxiv players have never whined about it from pc or console. Ppl don’t play MMO’s for PvP. In PvP in ffxiv there is no target lock. It only applies to the PvE content. I almost hate this generation of gamers bc they whine too much. That’s one reason why gaming has become so watered down and monetized “lazy gamers.” As a tank/healer, I lock on and unlock. Any other argp ppl aren’t whining. You’re not whining about target lock in wukong/gow/or anything else. Stop whining about target lock. New world combat has taken some pages from bless unleashed combat even some of the same names and moves and animations. There was target lock you just couldn’t lock on in PvP and a properly built priest was a bigger threat than a zerk. Stop complying and get good. I can’t wait for aeternum to drop next month. Ppl have been whining ever since AGS said they were gonna put aeternum out and this river of tears that ppl are crying is coming from pc players that have 1000+ hours in the game. Obviously, they liked something and kept playing. They’re just sour about something minor and seem to be trying to find every little thing to complain about.
To many “GAMING KAREN’S” out there.
FFXIV is a tab target game though so it makes total sense because it's not about actually "hitting" the target it's all about being in range of the target. I have no issue with PvE having target lock, that's kinda helpful and enjoyable, but PvP I don't think should have that type of system or it needs to be adjusted.
@@gingerlovesmmos they can turn it off for PvP, but it won’t be fair bc of the sensitivity difference from mouse to controller. Bless unleashed’s pvp was no target lock and if a person was built right, the zergs were not the biggest problem. The majority of ffxiv don’t play PvP. It’s a small pool of ppl. The majority of players play the pve content.
Clearly, AGS installed the target lock to keep it level between PC and Console. Heres a thought, PC players are very well known for "manipulating " system within a game via mods to benefit then, this can be the same on console tho the parameters to achieve the same is pretty difficult. I say let it be just close the range a bit, because getting destroyed by a musket, blunderbust, magic weapon from a distance would be completely unfair for both parties. Tho i liked that AGS thought process was inclusive with this idea, but it needs a tweek, just a bit.
I have been watching your videos for a couple weeks. I feel I can relate to you and your situation being a father myself. I have 2 young boys and love gaming as well. Very impressed with your videos and love watching them and your messages of hope are inspiring. Thank you!
Thank you dude, and congrats on your two boys, I've got 2 boys and 4 girls so outside of when I get time to game, it's a real treat to game and spend time with my kids.
I want to correct you on something. You said that "the subscription model has been rejected by the majority", and I just want to add that you're referring to the majority of players, as a whole, and not specifically MMO players; and the fact that the two most popular MMOs (WoW and FFXIV) both have monthly subscriptions is proof of that. The MMO community in the west largely agrees that the subscription model is the best business model for MMOs.
Love your content. I have a lot of respect for the way you conduct yourself. The line "don't ever really point a finger at anybody else, as the reason why something didn't go well; always point the finger at yourself, and figure out how you could have done something better" was perfectly articulated and is excellent advice. Keep being you ✌
I really appreciate your positive take on the game. I really like playing New World and there's so much hate out there about it.
There is reasonable critique and fair push back on things in the game and how the dev has done things, but saying the game is trash is a bridge too far.
Hey I really enjoyed the end message. I feel like I struggle with the 3 strong things you mentioned i struggle with my health and at times put myself down because of my high functioning autism and other stuff to. I also compare myself to others when it comes to stuff even financially it’s a work in progress trying to stop but I do believe I will be good if I put my faith in God. Thank you for your words of encouragement friend
if they're gonna keep target lock they should make it not as strong, like make it lose the lock if the target moves away from your screen, instead of rotating it to follow it.
Or just make a real aim assist like 100+ other games did before, instead of giving console plebs literal aimbot
Even if they do this, in arenas and war it won’t matter. There’s enough room to always keep someone in front of you
As a console player that was in the beta and loved my time. I think it would be worthwhile to try it with out lock on and see what needs tuned. This feels like a vast over correction for something that we don't even know was a problem.
I do like the trade-off "option" for using lock on.
As a mainly PC PVE player, even I think that target lock has to be reworked/tweaked. And like you added ...maybe using it kicks in a debuff to damage dealt or whatever.
The toxic environment of MMOs in general is one of the reasons why I'm trying out FF14. I've only been playing for a few weeks now and haven't subbed yet, but the few folks I've interacted with have been nice and helpful.
I love your videos and how honest you are❤
As always great and positive video you point out the flaws but staying constructive its rare. To be honest although im now a super casual NW player i just stick arround your vods for the good energy even as a Lab psychologist i need someone to give me a positive space too. We need more Content creators that spread a good message these days please continue to be you, because you probably make a world of difference to many more than a therapist ever could.
Thank you so much dude, and I'm going to keep doing my best, keep me in your prayers and I'll be keeping you and all those who watch my videos in mine. :)
❤@@gingerlovesmmos
it would be cool if there was a heavy debuff towards players that way it gives players the incentive to free aim. full damage against npcs and some kind of nasty heavy percentage against players. something around 40 to 60 percent. lazy shots = graze type wounds
Is there somewhere I can find groups to join up for the raid etc? I used to do the raids in destiny 2 but found them getting very toxic.
I also really enjoy this game, I’ve played from the beginning. My biggest complaint is the economy. I hate that you pretty much have to do all the professions to make good gear. Economies work because we have to buy and sell our specialties to one another. I would like to know who crafted the piece I’m thinking of buying. I really wish crafting was less RNG.
How are the console players supposed to compete with PC users without target locking? I have 2k hours into New World on PC but I enjoyed it more on consoles and I have to say that having to target with a controller is much harder! If they take out target looking then console player's will be used for target practice.
@@TheDuuduu87 this! I can't wait to try this out
the fact that they broke 725 GS gear crafting 3 perks of your choice with prism scarab in the next update to raid gear only with only 2 perks is ridiculous.
God, i hope the raid is easy so ppl just make rush groups and get the full gear in a few weeks.
Ginger you are amazing!
Thank you so much. 🙏 really appreciate such a nice comment
Aeternum has PvP target lock😮, wow, not quite sure I will like that, I’m a console player (PS5) and am fine with aim assist because of how controllers work, most console games have it, but PvP target lock, nah! No thanks. Oh, as long as the game supports it consoles can use KnM.
Comparing MMO roadmaps, I’d say that Guild Wars 2 is also a good example with its expansions. Shame it’s not on console so have to use my laptop to play it.
Great channel btw and I’ve subscribed just because of your positivity & honesty , we need more such content creators on RUclips. Thank you.
Can someone explain to me the issue with target lock? I haven't played this game yet (i plan to start for the first time on Oct 15) but coming from Elden Ring and other Souls games I just dont understand the issue...those games have huge pvp components to the game, and have always had target lock, and the fact is not only is target lock not some kind of "easy mode" advantage, it actually increases the skill ceiling of the mode...top players know that just locking on to a target and keeping it on is actually not the best for combat, and knowing when to lock on and when to free aim is actually a big part of skill expression. To me, if it becomes a scenario where you just automatically win because you're locked on, then there's bigger issues with the general combat in terms of the frame data, hit boxes, and skill cancellation systems. It actually boggles the mind that this is seen as some sort of auto win cheat, so what am i missing here?
I feel like gamers can get used to anything. When I played SWTOR the PVP had lock on and I still had a lot of fun. Just had to be more strategic. I prefer aim assist for controller for shooters.
Supposedly that this lock on only works in PVE on live. I'll believe it when I see it.
Desteny 2 light aim assist is the best, that's what I would like to see in NW.
8:43 what's the name of the song playing?
Aim assist is better for controller users. Target lock just removes the skill the player needs to improve and get better using the controller.
I just want them to do soft lock. Close range aimbot is wild.
He likes to use controllers.
To be honest, $15 a month in 2024 is a deal if you enjoy a game. What other media can give you the value for time/money ratio that $15 a month can provide?
13:06 the timing of the video syncing up with your message…chef’s kiss
I like that you’re promoting positive behavior as the world needs more of that.
Thanks, sometimes its the small things that can make the biggest difference.
People need it esp now. Gotta spread the good virus
I find it funny that people are truly bothered by others who enjoy a game that they themselves dont like. Usually if you dont like something you go about your day and move on but no they rather troll and harass ppl. Crazy times man lol 😂
Did you ever play eso online ?
A bit on Xbox, but if I was to try it again it would be on PC.
I think this ytb guy have always been a little bit too much positive over the years, borderline innocent. It has its charm thats for sure and thats fine with me tho
Isn't the past 3 years pristine example how much they care about feedback,pvp and Pc players in general? 3-4k pc players vs cashgrabbed console 30kish
As a 7k plus hour pvper in NW, but this being my first mmo... I've always truly appreciated your "historical" mmo thought process. I want to appreciate that thought process in this video, but ever since I realized playing the beta that tab target has come to NW, that this cutting edge game is going back to 2004. I am 100% unmotivated to even do dailies at this point. It's the wrong decision for this game, a more fundamental change than moving from open word survival to mmo. In my eyes, it's the only thing that should be spoken about. Just another untruth by the lead dev of this game, that I hope will be rectified before this update is released.
They DEFINITELY should ONLY allow target lock for controller, allowing for kbm is insane. Another way to fix the issue of kbm being so much better than controller they can just increase the 'hit boxes' while using controller and shrink it with kbm. That being said the target lock is not that good, PVP streamers are mostly over reacting. You can't even do a head shot with it, maybe make it not crit would be enough also. 30% less damage would be way too much though.
But there might be another reason AGS put target lock in PVP for the open beta. It's called the 'king & artist/hairy hand' method, when you are doing something for a terrible customer or crybaby, you purposely put something very bad in (like making a hand in portrait super hairy) so that when your horrible customer inevitably complains about your work, you distract them with something obvious that you can fix quickly so they forget about bitching about other stuff that isn't actually wrong. So now they can just remove 'target lock' in PVP only and make PVPers happy so they don't complain about other stuff. They may have done it on purpose.
I'm not sure if "pushing the hype" for NW is a good thing. People will expect "more" than the beta.
Yeah, managing expectations something that gets ahead of us as gamers far to easily.
How about we wait for the update before we say lock on in pvp is a given. Could have been a bug.
It could have been a bug, we will see.
@@gingerlovesmmos seems like it since it’s not a thing currently. Lock on is Pve only in game. Either way I don’t care pc has the ability as well.
I was watching a recent stream of yours recently, and another guy on your stream started kinda bagging on 'born-again Christians', which I found odd. I'm not an aggressive bible thumper or anything, but it was still a bit hurtful. I know you're a Catholic (I am not, but I accept Catholics as my brothers and sisters in Christ), so I was surprised to hear that. Maybe in the future the denigration of any religious group could be avoided.
Can you provide me the timestamp to what you're talking about? Also, if you are baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit you are a Catholic, you're just protesting the authority of the church in some way.
But everyone's opinions are welcome even ones we don't like or agree with, it's a call in show after all, if you ever want to join in as well and give your view, open invite :)
@@gingerlovesmmos "New World Aeternum Open Beta Gameplay & My Thoughts on the State of the Game" around 20 minute mark. As for me being a Catholic, nice try. ;-)
I'll check out that timestamp, thank you 🙏
And as for you being Catholic, if your demonization accepts the first 7 counsels then you're right there besides me, I think maybe it's even 6 counsels, but I'll have to ask some of my preacher friends out there to make sure I have it right.
But if you're a bible believing Christian, then I don't know how you're anything but Catholic. I'm also enjoying the many ways the protestant churches in my area are coming back to the scriptures and realizing that they threw out perfectly good teachings just because they were "too catholic" which is me using their words by the way. :)
Anyway, please never feel intimidated when talking about this stuff with me, I love talking about it, and I hope in no way my words cause you any stress or you feel like I'm being rude, if any of that does occur, please accept my sincerest apologies.
I went and listened to the clip, and I didn't find it denigrating towards born again, but more about their personal experience from that tradition. I didn't get any vibes that he was trying to insult them, more or less communicating that tradition doesn't vibe with his idea of evangelization.
@@gingerlovesmmos Right... I had a feeling as soon as you started trying to proselytize at me, in what I would consider a rather rude way, you'd find no problem with what he said. If someone had slighted Catholicism in a similar way, I'm sure you'd have gotten your dander up and have plenty to say about it. Unlike you, I'm not interested in having silly religious debates online. I don't know the individual you were talking to, is he even a Christian? Sounds like he was against the forceful proselytization of those uninterested, or against those with a strong, outspoken faith. I wonder what he thinks of you? Maybe he was another Catholic, and you two were just engaging in some run-of-the-mill Protestant bashing.

I'll just leave you with the plain truth, which anyone can see: you reverence a group of "high priests" who formulated a bloated, ritualistic, excessively dogmatic structure in order to teach and control a bunch of illiterates who, even if they could read, did not have the Word in their mother tongue. I don't judge it as harshly as some, as there is a plain sociological and historical reason for it to exist at one time. But it has outlived its usefulness, and in fact is as harmful as ever to the body of Christ.
Regarding your comment regarding evangelicals moving in the direction of Catholicism... I dunno if you've read the end of the book, friend; things get worse before they get better. ;-) The performative, atmospheric "vibe" (as the kids call it) of your particular faith probably does attract many babes in Christ who've unfortunately been stuck in goofy megachurches for most of their lives... out of the frying pan and into the fire, as they say. There's also a huge resurgence of interest in Gnosticism and the Orthodox church, what do you think that means? Catholics are going to the Orthodox in droves, for many of the same reasons (minus the obviously deluded and confused Papa. Another red flag there… I have one spiritual Father. You have some untold number, it seems.)
Still, I hold my tongue unless someone asks my opinion, and at the very least don't make a video about video games and then go into a rant into my disagreements. That kind of thump-em-over-the-head bible thumping does no good. Christ taught us to be fishers of men... do you club the fish? No, you use bait, you are gentle, you lure them in with a steady hand. Not this bombastic polemics that attack people, instead of the ideas. Whatever crusade you think you’re on, where you can casually insult other Christians, you’re sorely mistaken. You are in no position.
I'm sure you wont find the above denigrating at all.. in the end, I guess your flippant, ignorant disrespect for my faith just don't vibe with my idea of evangelization. ;-) In the end, you can like it, or you can lump it. Have a good trip.
People crying about target lock on in Pvp it's those people who play one broken build which makes other builds pretty useless. Target lock on in PvP is a great addition to the game because it will make all talents and weapons good in PvP because some weapons do require accurate aim and with that said combat in the new world is not that great because it's clunky. If you want the best action combat - you should've played Tera. Now we got this out of the way, target lock on will make combat in the new world far less clunky and more engaging. If AGS will keep that at lunch and keep that system but improve it it's the best decision they will make. That's the only reason I'm thinking of coming back and playing this game.
Throne and Lib it isssssssss put 1000s of hours into this game up to last spring. nothing i see that would bring me back to NW
Wait....their was target lock? literally missed that part of the torial😅
Pressing R3 as a button will have you lock on target.
@@gingerlovesmmos oohh ok hidden in analog lol
Targeting changes are a Mountain out of a mole hill issue. Only a small few are complaining (loudly). Most don't care. 1: the change has no effect on skill. Tabbed targeting is just a different system that is common in many pvp games. It doesn't seem to have ruined them or made them less fun. All will be fine. Tabbed targeting is fun and takes skill to master just like any system. Don't panic. 42
People asking to be patient about new world are out of touch lets be real.
There is no pvpers left btw, they left 2 years ago
2nd keep up the good work loving the content
What were your symptoms of low testosterone?
Anxiety, weight gain, depression, sleep loss, fatigue.
@@gingerlovesmmos interesting thanks
Anytime, let me know if you have any other questions.
@@gingerlovesmmos Just one. You playing on fresh start servers in Oct?
Target lock = Tab target just like FF...
Yeah, pretty much.
My process is to watch gameplay, buy game, play it myself and determine for myself if things are as dire as the zealots suggest.
Let me know what you decide when the game is released.
The bot comments are fucking wild...
Could i if healed that Hunter that was standing in fire more better...
LUL 😂
i'm just annoyed that my original character will be rendered useless. people are going to flock to the new servers, and console people will definitely not come to ours. target lock is moronic, also.
AGS is doing this on purpose guys. Aim lock will be released in October unchanged. They’re doing it to get the rest of the whiney pc player base (me included) to stop playing the game entirely, which will work. It was fun while it lasted.
Who cares both PC and Consoles can both Target Lock... who cares?
Bro you picked comments for people who didn’t play the game that is insane lol first it locks on the chest and all musket dmg and bows rely on head shot lock on is not an issue at all. Number two throne and liberty is P2w. Paying 5 mins of a game is not paying it lol 😂
I was very competitive in new world and ranked first in Arenas as well as warred consistently. Target lock makes PvP brain dead, and ruins group play | war. Who cares if you aren’t head shotting if you have a whole team of bows hitting their target all the time? This target lock also makes it so if melee players can play blind folded.
@@karefool2494 so you didn’t play it at all gotcha. You were not ranked and there was no player ranking on beta just ranks for doing arenas. Try to bs someone needs else bud. You play to make content then bs answer you have no clue about at all.
Get tf rid of aim lock bruh. How you turn it from a skill based game to Elden ring like I’m some sort of npc mob bot?
How are you change the entire combat system. Yes that’s %100 changing the entire combat system. It’s basically world of Warcraft lock on target guarantee hit. Don’t be stupid Amazon change yourself everyone already hates your game now you’re gonna kill it for pvpers?
Bro said ff14 road map lol bruh 😂😂
Mnk players is a dying breed 😢
Personally there's no room for compromise. It doesn't need to be tweaked or nerfed. It needs to be removed.
Not on console only.
The less dmg idea means nothing when pvp in this game is mostly zergs chasing a player.
Imagine 6 to 9 people target locked on one player.
Whoever says Target lock is a good idea are literally admitting they need it to be good.
It behaves like an aimbot software. Even switching targets mid animations if the first target dies.
Controller does need a major sensitivity upgrade because it's just too slow. I'm actually using my steam imput over the native controller because it's better... even without aim assist.
True , console players just need to join console servers if there not conformable with fighing pc user
Took the words out of my mouth. Even if they nerf dmg if you use it, in group play it’s still busted. Wars will be just now teams spamming skills and melee getting nutted on
the lock on target just shows you how out of touch ags is with the gamming community, when has a lock on target game ever done well??
As far as action combat games. The Souls series has done extraordinarily well and it is based upon target lock.
As a 3000+hrs veteran player i must say i like the target lock in pvp cause i really dislike pvp now i can pvp blindfolded
Toxicity comes from good attentions and disapointments mostly. People in this community arent that much toxic lets be real, but people in this community are often saying the truth about this game
get rid of aim-assist, implement gyro. just ditch xbox since they want to stay in the past with their controller technology.
First
They dont care about our opinions come on havent you guys learned that by now ?
They will give console players aimbot because this game has been made for them and because they dont understand how pvp works in their game
