Would like to remind people about: https://www.stopkillinggames.com/
I had to Google as I thought this was another mmo from when I worked in the industry. I guess this means names are a bit generic (I got out of that industry in 2013). This is not one I’m familiar with. (I used to work on fan sites and tools to plot mob locations and quest items on maps and the like. Not the bad ones that had account/currency selling and such; we banned those people)
Amazon is greedy? Nobody could have known that back when new World released.
The problem with new MMOs is that nobody wants to sink time into something that has an 80% chance of being shuttered in a few years
I’d sink the time into an MMO.
The problem for me with the last MMO I tried (Pantheon) is that a bunch of people would rather talk on Discord than type; and that straight up ruins MMOs for me. Discord can fuck off. I do not want to have my arm twisted to join your shitty discord server so that I can join your shitty voice chat, only to be forced into listening to a bunch of goons talking about their love of fascism and Nazi shit while I’m playing a game. MAGA fucks can never keep their shitty opinions to themselves so even in a game where I’m a half naked ogre beating the shit out of a pig, trying to gain some gold.
Try Clan Lord
I don’t want to sink time into a kind of game that is one step above a point and click adventure game but with the constant need of repeating tasks like they’re house chores.
This is the exact kind of game I have the energy for these days but I’m not paying all the money they demand.
I hope the new world community has been working on private servers.
First mistake those gamers made was trusting Amazon.
Oh yeah, I vaguely recall Amazon made an mmo.
I even played it a bit around launch… it was ok, very very repetitive though so lost interest pretty quickly. Also helped by some annoying design choices.
It really felt like someone was trying to recreate the LOTR games in an MMO in terms of visuals and playstyle but it just held ypu hand way too much.
I played for a month or so when it first came out. I got the game for free, as I had pre-ordered it several years prior when it was first announced. It was originally going to be a monthly subscription, so they had the game listed for no cost for pre-orders for the initial week or so, then they decided to switch to a paid copy of the game and no monthly cost. Those who added it to their account during the initial announcement at $0 got to keep it.
I even got to play the beta a little before the official launch, and I could have played the alpha before that if I had remembered the game existed.
It is a beautifully rendered game, but the storyline felt lacking. Also, I’ve never really played an mmo before this one for any substantial length of time, so it might just not be my style of game. But I didn’t find it very engaging, aside from the visuals and the soundtrack which were both great.
The opensource engine behind it is really cool. The paint by numbers art used for it is unfortunate
I always thought a Futurama-based MMO would be amazing.
Nothing soured me from NW much like the obvious resource gathering bots and the fishing bots constantly casting and retracting their lure because they could see the fish to be caught ahead of time because of bad code.
Surprised it took that long ngl, the game especially at the start was a dumpster fire that lost 95% of it’s players in like a couple if months
The only MMOs I don’t return to are the ones whose companies / publishers do this sort of BS.
I only return to ones I can host myself, so basically just wow now, which I don’t play anymore.
Wouldn’t this work?
Oh wow that seems cool as hell
oh god that game was awesome when it launched.
Check out Fellowship, it’s WoW Mythic+ dungeons without the MMO grind.
tbf, I prefer the grind over chasing end game content. I like seeing my toons evolve and grow
One of us
Not surprised but unfortunate. Me and my friend were playing it for awhile, but you couldn’t share quests so we ended up dropping it after maybe a week since we barely could actually play together.
Nobody cares. Nobody is slamming shit.
There are 3 nerds left screeching and as usual gaming sites amplify their screeching.
These posts are worthless garbage engagement bait. Feel bad.
