Different strokes for different folks but my favourite parts of MMOs do not involve running all over a poorly defined area looking for a moose to kill or tabbing out while auto-running in a straight line to my next destination lol. It feels like these were all problems that got solved and fixed and they just decided to go back in time for some reason.

I wouldn't recommend auto run tab outs in this game though. You will run into a camp of some sort that could be higher level than you. Assuming you don't run into a wall some place.

There are also several great MMO options on the market if you want those things. In fact MMOs have been doing cookie cutter WoW copycats for like 15 years. I’m also in the camp of enjoying some of the warts of this game.

Dude has been posting the same poo poo over and over in every iteration of the New World thread. It's tiresome. You don't have to like the game, but at some point, like when you've realized that you hate it and have no interest in playing it, maybe you should move on with your life.

Or, you could not backseat mod and let people post about the game. Don't police other people's opinions. If you can't handle reading posts about a bad game, maybe stop reading the thread about a bad game.

You have me confused with someone else. This is the only New World thread I've ever posted in I'm pretty sure, and considering I knew nothing about the game until today when I first started playing I can't imagine that I've ever posted anything complaining about it. Sounds like you got so mad you hallucinated lol

Literally every post of yours in this thread is "lol game bad". Like you could at least have the decency to be funny about it. Make a joke about why the game is bad or something.

It’s a new MMO that’s not some sandbox pos and Amazon will probably spend a shitload of money making sure it doesn’t fail.

More to the point, it has settlements/territories that guilds, or companies, can control. Those companies can engage in open world pvp as companies and there are also 3 world factions that can fight amongst themselves as well. It also has a pretty robust crafting system and somewhat unique visual design/aesthetic.

they literally took their last game back into closed beta after releasing it and then just shutting it down altogether. Its not far from reality.
