-
Tannamarie Rousseau (@TannamarieR) reported@playnewworld Amazon realized you have to maintain a live service game and went "**** that".
-
Mithraic_Path_of_Dharma (@MithraicDharma) reported@playnewworld Honestly you had a great game, could have kept it going if you adjusted the monetization model. Live service games always have me worried about bug companies just walking away.
-
GameorGrift (@GameorGrift) reported@_m00nrise @Pirat_Nation @playnewworld They could set it up to do dedicated servers though that are player run. They are just ******** and will never do that. New world would do GREAT as Community hosted content or even as a sub based service as long as it wasn't pay to win. Remove the entire dev team, swap to sub base system. and start rebuilding with a team that gives a ****.

RespawnX (@XRespawn1) reported@playnewworld For us aussies Under Australian Consumer Law (ACL), digital games must be of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, and match their description/promises (e.g., ongoing live-service MMO).If a shutdown makes it unfit/unplayable contrary to what was promised, it's a potential major failure → entitling refund/replacement (overrides "no refund" policies).
-
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.

Harry Palms (@desauce2) reported from Bermuda Dunes, California@playnewworld are the servers down? Strange things are going on for me and a buddy. Says no world activity,US West, El Dorado server.

Kqbleb (@kqbleb) reported@blessedpleasant @playnewworld amazon aint doing live service mmos again. The mmo genre is a money pit unless you monetize like koreans

ᛏᚱᛁᛋᛏᚨᚾ 💍 (@tcubd) reported@Sensiblelogic06 @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld Again. Player retention was not an issue for the game to operate, as Amazon was fine operating the game with an average of 8-10k for 3-4 years. It's not like they were expected to have 1 MILLION players for 5 years.
-
Rickey Williams (@Sensiblelogic06) reported@tcubd @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld They were not fine, you are saying they are dine and I am confused why you are saying that, they were not happy with 8 to 10k players the fact you are saying that is the issue with your argument, mmorpgs will not do well with that low of a base especially new ones
-
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

Motcoeur (@Motcoeuriz) reported@playnewworld Fix pvp balanced didnt work . Boltcaster ignore all resistance ..
-
Sawtoothgrin (@Sawtoothgr1n) reported@playnewworld Well this will fix the queue problems lol

sixty7gt500 (@Rupinski) reported@playnewworld Minor Error found: Peacocks can't give eggs. Consider changing the birds name to Peafowl
-
**** 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.

Stephen Parker (@sparker888) reported@playnewworld My heartrune is broken 4eva 💔
-
Frankie (@smartassfrank) reported@playnewworld Sad we won’t have the drop of 500 Umbral after the fix. Quickly joining Outpost Rush for next 2 days. ;)
-
Sean Berry (@S_Berry_82) reported@kub3l3t @tcubd @playnewworld You claim no games can retain players 4 years after launch, I give you clear examples and I'm the one reaching. I think your fragile little ego is the issue here. It's ok to be wrong.

Vanir Entertainment🎮📽️🎧🏒⚔️🛡️ (@Volsunga1985) reported@playnewworld I want a full refund.. how dare you steal out money and shut the servers down next year. This has to be illegal on so many levels.
-
BagginsTV (@BagginsTV) reported@ShultsyPlays @playnewworld That's not honest, it's jaded. The engine the devs were forced the use was a mess of spaghetti code (which is what caused a significant number of the bugs and issues) and they had Amazon execs stifling every creative choice they wanted to make in the name of maximising profit. Many, many things were mishandled throughout this game's life, and there is a whole lot of things that could and should've been better, but I'll die on the hill that the core dev team - the creatives, vfx artists, etc and the developers, system/mechanics/combat designers etc, were not the issue.

𖤍 BlessedUPleasant 𖤍 (@blessedpleasant) reported@playnewworld lmfao, hit lvl 70 yesterday… just bought an extra gear set. apparently, the hopes were high, this game had the most potential it ever has….. i was having so much fun. what ******** is this news, genuinely. who will ever play a live service AGS game again
-
Peter Crumblin (@PeterCrumblin) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Please fix logging in queues,i like everyone else would like to play the game we bought without having to sit in que for a hour, then praying ot doesnt crash pitting us to the back of the que again
-
Kamil Wójcik (@kamonke22) reported@DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld bro discovered game as a service xD Should have read the terms of agreement before accepting.
-
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
-
Diakou (@diakou) reported@STTP_WILSON @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld skill issue, the actual broken part was the netcode being client authoritative
-
JJ Gloom (@kinoandnectar) reported@Verliswolf @playnewworld **** was a broken mess from the start
-
Bob1234x (@Bob1551x) reported@playnewworld I would love to play but there is always 1 hour waits to log in to my characters. you will lose me if you dont fix this crap
-
Aivovna (@aivovna) reported@playnewworld Game was fun at launch (like most mmos), but a copypasted PvP game quickly flipped into a more PvE focused experience ended poorly Last time I logged in, the end game was: Lag from chest to chest in the desert and run the same 3 mythic+ lite dungeons over and over again Also p2w
-
Shute (@FemboyShuta) reported@DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld problem is no you didnt "buy the game" you bought a "license to play the game" and it would have said until services are taken down

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.

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.
