It's funny to think that there are so many people trashing the game who haven't even clocked 500 hours. They complain about the lack of endgame content (which, yeah, is true), but they don't even have a 700 gear score set, haven't maxed out a profession, or cleared high-level mutations, etc., etc. There's a lot of hate coming at the game for no reason from people who never really gave it a shot-they're just hating for the sake of hating. This game is amazing, and I can't wait for October 15th to jump back in. Right now, it feels pointless to keep grinding since the real tryharding will start in October, so it's time to kick back and patiently wait for this awesome game that’s given me so many hours of fun
Was the announcement handled well? No. Are people completely overreacting and having a melt down over a video game? Absolutely. Great video, stay positive.
Both sentences doesn't mean the update and path New World is following will make the game better. Wait and see. But 3 years in, they screwed too many opportunities, digging slowly the grave. And I mean, people gave them more than enough chances.
I dont get it. Will i be able to play new world auternum (the base game, because i dont own the expansion on pc) on xbox when its released, because i already own the base new world game on steam pc. Will i have to buy auternum on xbox to play? Or will it be free for me because i already own the base game on steam.
I played on launch and haven't played since 2022. I plan though to start playing again on PC on the fresh start servers when the console release hits in October. It's going to be cool to see a new playerbase hitting the game and a launch always has an enjoyable energetic buzz to it. I only played the original MSQ experience up to about level 35 initially so I haven't seen any form of revamped experience nor have I ever even seen endgame. Most of my friends had the same quit moment when the game slowed down after about level 30. I think that the majority of players were lost in the post-level 30 slowdown more than actually ever reached endgame, so the lack of endgame content criticisms really miss the point of what the majority of players loved and what drove them away, even if endgame content is needed to retain them. As for myself, I absolutely loved the atmosphere, visuals, music, and sound design, and I know a lot of others felt the same. Hopefully they really step up the marketing and get a lot of people returning and starting for the first time. At the very least the first 100 hours of exploration and gathering are magical.
The criticism is directly proportional to the love we feel for the game. No one is disappointed this badly and loudly for a game they do not care for. I appreciate your positive attitude, but it comes off a tad naive. In five months, post console, they will be in exactly the same place. The console launch is necessary, but fixing the root cause issues that lead the game to lose hundreds of thousands of players should have been their priority. I really, really, hope you are right and that I am wrong on this one.
I definitely agree that both the criticism and positivity are because we love the game. I really wanted to show that there are still some positive things to look forward to and to keep some hope alive that there's still a chance that things can turn around. Obviously, AGS still has to make major changes for things to turn around even if the release goes perfectly.
Hey i really liked your take on this. Sick of seeing people slag the game off and glad you spoke up about it and actually gave an honest and fair opinion and didn't just go with the crowd for sake of views. Subbed :)
I appreciate your optimism. My big concern is that most console players were not raised in the MMO period and are all first person shooters. I am not sure they will get the bang for their buck on console.
Agreed. This has been a view so far. I dont understand the point of putting out so much hate to try and scare new players away when the game will be "better". I put 2k hours into the worse version, im sure we can get some new players in that will allow the devs to keep going
The Copium pandemic has claimed yet another soul. Even 3 years later from the start of this outbreak there are still victims of this tragedy. Shame on New World """aEteRnUm""" for their negligence of addressing the real issues.
i still think the console release will be quite buggy, possibly 2021 levels of scuffed. going to be fun either way, if it comes out good then great if not the meltdown will be entertaining too
war mode will be the changing point, if scott is right and the game plays a lot better that would be big for pc players. But yeah where is our pvp he marketed for 2 years to us. Some small crappy island won't do it.
As someone who played for a month when the game came out and haven't touched it since then the updates sound pretty solid for the longevity of the game. New World has been slowly dying and this may be the only way to revive it, bring new players, and new revenue.
The game has changed so much since it first came out. It really is a great opportunity for them to turn it around if they can pull off a great release and continue to make some major changes to maintain the new and returning players.
Oh no, someone wants to stay positive about the future of the game. How is Aqua “out of idea” with what’s going on? Because they want the game to strive and is not complaining about the current state of the game? He even acknowledged that the devs really need to get it together. If you’re really upset about the game, stop playing. You can’t be too done with the game if you’re still watching content. Great video Aqua! I really appreciate that it wasn’t another New World is dead game video like everyone else is putting out.
@@markevans7607 cause of guys like you these clowns will keep milking people for more money. Maybe you can find some respect for yourself before you defend the game and devs? 3 years of alpha test, lmao
this is a pure "IF" video wasting time. Players do not create content, they only consume content, so even if you add people, the content is still stale and old. No one cares about console-vs-pc dont divide a community when there isnt even a console community!!!! put down the hopium crackpipe before you burn your lips

Is there a weight limit for what you can carry?

Thanks for this. I love this game. The game has come a long way.
Its come a long way and lost most travelers along the way. Now the travel must be rebranded to help possibly sponsor the trip a little longer. GGs.

Dude - I hope your positivity is infectious.
Between having the console port behind us and them opening a new studio means a lot of potential.

May the Gods have mercy on the fresh start console player's souls that que for cross world opr and 3v3.
God may show mercy but those 5 stacks in OPR sure as hell won't xD

If you're having fun with the game... that's awesome, but please keep in mind that AGS has lied multiple times to the community.

Minimal talk? Zero talk.
Thumbs up.
You are as out of touch on this as the devs are. Absolutely out of idea what is going on with the game.

Don’t think so
