AD (@AD1396AD) reported@vobic13 @playnewworld Clearly it was already in the works, and almost finished anyway. What's your problem with the devs wanting to honor the customers one last time, despite being laid off? Stop with the clown logic.

Brandon 🦅⭕️ (@bswagz88) reported@JexonHP @playnewworld It’s not about being cheap. It’s about transparency and consumer fairness. The devs clearly knew content development was winding down, that S10 was likely their last gasp, yet continued selling store items and DLC with no disclosure that the game was entering maintenance mode. That’s not equivalent to buying a movie ticket — it’s paying into a live service under the impression it’s ongoing. The ethics change dramatically when the service is knowingly winding down. Your argument hinges on false equivalence — comparing a complete, self-contained entertainment product (i.e., a movie or single-player game) with an ongoing live-service ecosystem that’s ending. A better analogy would be purchasing season tickets for your favorite sports team only to find out midway through the season that the team is dissolving the following season and during that next season the team won’t be playing any games — yet you can continue showing up to the stadium to purchase merch and food from the concession stands. There’s no perfect analogy for this sort of situation which is why GaaS are incredibly exploitative.

Lemmonnnn (@Lemmonnnn13) reported@playnewworld Right after the release of nighthaven? I mean, what ******** are we to do with gold cursed coconuts? This is actually bullshit because I’ve put thousands of hours into this broken *** game and I’ve stayed by AGS’s side since release, only to be betrayed like, this. Wtf man
-
Michael (@Zargisan) reported@JeffBezos @playnewworld Then why are you shutting down such an amazing game? It has finally become what it was always meant to be. All of the issues have been fixed. The gameplay and combat are second to none. Then we get rug pulled. “Not financially feasible” is such a cop out.

Michael Taylor (@mikerichtaylor) reported@elonsawankstain @Ayejess5101 @playnewworld The quality of these "seasons" is the issue, not division. The results are also self evident.
-
Rayleightt (@rayleightt) reported@playnewworld We spent real money on New World. Amazon released a major update just 1 month before shutting the game down. That’s not service ending that’s misleading players into spending more. This deserves refunds or compensation. #NewWorld #AmazonGame

akito (@akitoshaoku) reported@towelthetank @lDkayyl @playnewworld The "problem" is that you and others are going ham on "This shouldn't have happened, the game doesn't deserve this" but then you do nothing to help it beyond the petition equivalent of "I'm rooting for you!" Very disingenuous
-
Bongglemania | Ottertuber📿🦦 | VtuberEN (@Bongglemania) reportedI think with the announcement of @playnewworld shutting down i'm in a place where im done sparing peoples feelings around it. New world had technical problems but in the end its community sentenced it to death. I played 1400 hours as a PvE
-
QA das coisas (@Adakaris) reported@playnewworld It seems we're never going to have the perfect Action MMO RPG. Everyone that comes into the surface fails, one by one. It's a budget problem? Do you guys only hire non-rpg-players? The community always tells what needs to be done and no one is listening, wtf
-
Aidan (@Y0urOn1yFreND) reported@S_Berry_82 @playnewworld All the content is great! It didnt launch half baked. The issue is that the content did not keep people playing after they finished it. Thats obviously very bad for an MMO
-
MMO_Bean (@rdj4014) reported@StanKnight0077 @Robovader123 @playnewworld I imagine those players weren’t actually loyal to the game only to trying go engagement farming when they were talking shite about the game. The game had its issues, but for me personally it was a perfect blend of everything I enjoy about an MMO and was really laid back. I’ve never been a min/maxed or hardcore PvP player though and I noticed most people that I saw complaining were hardcore PvP driven and the type to rush through content and then complain there wasn’t any.

Sawtoothgrin (@Sawtoothgr1n) reported@playnewworld Well this will fix the queue problems lol
-
Dermi (@0603_luke) reported@Haoshoku @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld But release was *** in any way. 1 year after the release they started to fix everything and the game was awesome. But no Promo, Not even for the add-on
-
Cas8spyder (@cas8spyder) reported@playnewworld East Server Empi is down. Keeps crashing and unable to get on. Sat in queue 3 times with about 500 on average than gets a connection error to start over again.
-
19.7.4 (@19_07_04) reported@DeathMetalV @towelthetank @playnewworld That truth,but what makes ppl really feeling sad about the announcement in last 3season they really fixed things and they added alot of cool things for both pve&pvp but their issues were always the first impression they gave to ppl they never will manage get back the player base
-
Enomao (@Enomao86) reported@NyceGamingYT @playnewworld We have to unsubscribe from any Amazon service we have contracted as a form of complaint. And in the reasons section, put closure "New World : Aeternum"
-
cogolloQuemado (@fideosConTuc0__) reported@playnewworld Will you release the base code and server configs so the community can run custom/private servers? It’d be the best move for players who kept buying currency when the game was empty and broken. It’s in your hands; if you can’t maintain it, the community can.
-
Jas (@jasnightmare1) reported@playnewworld When will you solve the queue problem on all servers, including SA?
-
Spam (@Spamsum) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld combat and social elements were great (but lots of drama) but honestly it was clear that the devs didn't play their own game. many systems didnt work, things would break patch to patch and then be left broken for months at a time. VERY frustrating for the playerbase
-
Koen Hendriks (@koen_dev) reported@playnewworld could you add a grace period for users that crash after waiting an hour in the queue. Even if it is just for 5 minutes.
-
Anemyre (@COGs_Anemyre) reported@bswagz88 @playnewworld This game still had a healthy player base. The issue comes down to Amazon owning it. They have no idea what they're doing in the gaming space and they're soulless, only looking at cost/benefit. Now that tech is cutting fat, it was inevitable the floundering game division would be cut
-
M0l0k0 (@M0l0k0v3ll0c3t) reported@Vokun_ @zomeisterr @playnewworld Almost every major service game launched in a poor state and is now in the top 25 on Steam. Destiny, Warframe, Rainbow Six Siege, CSGO, Sea of Thieves, No Man's Sky, Path of Exile, the list goes on and on and on.
-
YomamaCookGoodFood (@GoodYomama) reported@g0urra @npcsolananews @playnewworld Ive tried 3 times, only have 7 hours, i understand the 2 hour refund thing for steam but I had ever intention on playing the game more in till they announced the sudden halt in the game development and shutting the servers down in 2026

ProimagensJR 💿 (@ProimagensJ) reported@playnewworld It's so sad to see news like this. My heart is completely broken now.
-
Shultsy 👾 (@ShultsyPlays) reported@BagginsTV @playnewworld What profit? The game made zero money in 5 years? I'd pull the plug too. This was the same dev team the entire life cycle. Same leadership except homeboy left. They had 5 years of free reign from Amazon and failed. That's a development problem that led to a corporate problem.
-
**** ICE Forever (@noshpan) reported@towelthetank @playnewworld Despite issues at first, I stuck with it. And, I must say that I certainly got my money's worth, what with the 770+ hours I've invested into the game. It's my cozy game. I enjoy leveling my gathering & crafting skills. And it's a shame that it'll sunset next year.
-
5kY1iN3 (@Skyline451) reported@icyveins There are major issues that need to be addressed from what I played in beta for @ChronoOdyssey to even come close to what @playnewworld has accomplished
-
Shultsy 👾 (@ShultsyPlays) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld This game made zero money in 5 years because of its development team. The game wasn't the issues, the leadership choices were.
-
NO1 (@NO1Kn0wsss) reported@BagginsTV @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld bug issues isn't what he's referring to, its the lack of content for the past 2 years besides the last month of content, the game has had close to zero hits in terms of updates other than the revamped structures to zones.
