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.

Roger Barreto (@rogerbarretto) reported@playnewworld Saddened. After many MMOs, this one really clicked and was very balanced. But 5k DAU won't cover the microtransactions model. Pity it can't sustain; I'd sub for stability. At least the COGS should suffice to keep the service online with some margin.

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.

TheMightyBaloon (@TheMightyBaloon) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld also the issue with the game have lost visibility isn't because no hype but because it was ******* mismanaged and buggy as ****
-
lolJayMo2 (@lolJayMo2) reported@LSXYZ9 @playnewworld I’d say the problem was that SO MANY people saw it during release. It was dull on release and nobody came back. I begged my friends but they absolutely refused.

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.

Kqbleb (@kqbleb) reported@Cheyenesku @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld Lmao the game died like 2 years ago. Nothing to do with corporate when they didnt fix some very very important aspects of their game like m3s.
-
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
-
Suspecttaken (@suspecttaken84) reported@playnewworld But why? This game had its issues but I still enjoyed it. Many people still play! Suits telling yall to end service because they can’t buy a 2nd yacht with it?
-
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
-
imjustkentaro (@im_just_kentaro) reportedStill at a loss for words over what #amazon did to #playnewworld. I thought maybe they would have shut it down years ago but to release this huge new update and make a solid effort to fix a lot of the issues with the game only to rugpull everyone is baffling.
-
Panciako (@AntyPanciak) reported@playnewworld Ok set game to f2p for rest of service
-
ZWOGs (@ZWOGsOfficial) reported@playnewworld Sell it to someone who can actually fix it. Because this game was incredible at launch and it only got worse for no reason. Give it to someone who can do the job. This is such a shame to see.
-
Kib (@KiburenKibu) reported@mike_stang @playnewworld "We wanted to give you a chance to play this new weapon class despite its unfinished state, so some bugs and issues are to be expected." I know, reading comprehension is hard.
-
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.
-
Rodrigo Aces (@AcesRodrigo) reported@playnewworld im here just to see the car crash
-
Andrewshark (@andrewshark91) reported@playnewworld What’s the point of live service games if they just keep shutting down..
-
💵Collect & Serve💵 (@_SleuthSlayer_) reported@playnewworld I enjoyed this game, but the issue was 1000 player servers at launch.
-
Sleve McDichael (@mbilyk_) reported@salvarespo @DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld It’s part of the service. If no one is playing it they can’t provide a 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
-
Shultsy 👾 (@ShultsyPlays) reported@BagginsTV @playnewworld Can we be honest here now that it's over? This was the worst development team on an MMO ARPG I've ever seen. This dev team was garbage the entire time. From delayed updates, DLCs not working for hours after launch, focusing on PvP for an entire year, and 2 DLCs in 5 years.
-
popojo07 🎖️ MILITARY 🎖️ (@JohnPopovich22) reported@SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @playnewworld Problem is Bezos is not even there anymore - he has been slowly selling off his stock. Some DEV company just needs to see if they can buy New World. I figured this was coming once they decided to rebrand Prime Gaming and I am afraid more changes will be coming, soon.
-
Wismic (@blairewismic) reported@playnewworld That's crazy. Especially considering there's quite literally over 2x the active, daily, and peak player-count for this game compared to ESO by Zenimax, without Amazon's infinite money glitch in the back pocket. Major misplay by Amazon.
-
Based Millennial (@bsdmillennial) reported@playnewworld Fix your ******* servers…you are an embarrassment.
-
Noah🗝️ (@VexxPK) reported@rozilol @playnewworld Now is broken right now
-
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
-
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
-
Noblekrister (@noble168no2) reported@NWGameStatus @playnewworld Fix the issue that’s causing me to crash every time I fast travel!!
-
𝕏Demo (@EricFrandemo) reported@Aster1_ @itsaugmentedd Please do Elon. Buy @playnewworld too. Fix gaming, save the world.

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