"New World" is such a banal name for a game, and I don't have very high expectations for an Amazon MMO to have a lot of soul put into it

It looks great, but from what I read regarding the beta, it gets repetitive really quick, which is probably the worst thing that can happen in a MMORPG.

However, they're pretty sure it's gonna be a success, because they're throwing millions of dollars at huge streamers to promote and play the game.

I'll wait and see, will probably play it later this year or maybe next year once I know that they're not gonna dissapoint me.

Just because its normal doesnt mean its acceptable. Especially from Amazon of all companies. Their launch should have set the gold standard.

That's the fee to install the game. Then there are the millions of microtransactions required to make any real progress.

if theres even a single one that isnt cosmetic, why does he need to play the game before judging it based on the MTX? Cosmetic MTX alone is toxic enough to the industry

I don't care about anyone's opinions on MMOs if they've only played them for a couple days.
This looks like the same ol' set of things you've been doing that past couple of decades.

it's literally impossible to know exactly how many people are going to be playing on launch, which means it's literally impossible to know exactly how many servers you need

Which is why, for Amazon especially, its absolutely pathetic they cant solve this problem. They invented Amazon Web Services for fucks sake. One of its major selling points is burstable resources. Not a good look for Amazon. It wouldnt even be acceptable for someone other than Amazon, but because its Amazon its even worse.

This is not a problem thats possible to solve. Blizzard tried plenty of times with WoW. And every other new MMO that put out extra servers on launch ended up with a bunch of dead servers a few months later after the initial rush died down

considering the whole point of AWS is that they have tons of servers for people to use for a price that are available on an as-needed basis for situations exactly like this then yeah, it just seems pathetic to me.

they can take the servers they already have, deploy the containers, and have enough resources. it shouldn't even take that long if their architecture was set up correctly, maybe an hour or two to deploy and sync everything up. the price for other consumers goes up, but they can have an easy launch and get a bunch of good press from it. then when the initial launch rush dies down, they can free up those servers for use by other paid customers

I created a character and played through the tutorial. Like 20 minutes. Game seems good so far. I had no queue time at all to get in on a medium pop server. The world looks absolutely massive and seems like it will be a blast to explore. I cant wait to dive in some more when i got more time

Because I have a lot of games to play already, bought a lot on the last sale I never even installed -_-.

I read it is still screwing up Nvidia cards, too... I am hoping that VSync On and 60 FPS cap is sufficient to avoid that.

Not having a sub fee is really making me lean toward buying it. $40 one time, even if I spend a couple months playing it thats a good use of my money

The fact that everything is a skill, even skinning animals, is giving me some Project: Gorgon vibes though I don't think there's a game out there that can compete with the skill library in that title.

3.1 hours in, so far it's been like an extended tutorial (aka, hold E on things to make numbers go up) and also I can't find any hemp.

The crafting system feels even more offensive than ESO's. It's really streamlined which is great, but to make something like bullets you need THREE different materials. Since I can't find hemp, my choice is to... not adopt guns as a weapon, or throw a lot of money at it on the trading board.

Also you have to pay taxes to the settlement you're in for the items you craft lmao.
