An MMORPG with great potential - but there’s so much work to be done. It is, however, already highly addictive for those who are patient and forgiving.

New World is such a large MMO that we will have to spend our time in the vast world of Aethernum. While some mechanics or functionalities don't have much of a place nowadays, it has other things that seem to me to be genuine and cutting edge in terms of massively multiplayer online development.

New World is an mmo that could be straight out of 2010. It hardly adds any new ideas to the genre and therefore feels dated in content. The faction system offers interesting possibilities for wars between players, but is not yet balanced. New World demands a lot of time from its players, but does not actually give anything in return that we have not seen before. Graphically, everything is fine, and although the game has microtransactions, they are only of a cosmetic nature. There is no subscription: for the entrance fee, the entire base game is open to you.

Really cool game! Beautiful graphics and fun combat and skill systems. Unfortunately the idiots At amazon games will ban you for cussing!That's right 1000s of hours and they ban you for cussing at another player!That's absurd but just the facts. They banned me and pretty much anyone and apparently everyone that played new world. Getting a permenant ban for cussing a jerk player was the nail in the coffin for me and lots of others.I'm glad to see serious gamers stand up to this absurd permenant ban bs by not playing anymore and getting this game permanently shut down! Up your @$$Amazon games!

What a lost opportunity... New World is a mmo with amazing combat, nice crafting system, zero personality and 10000 bugs. At first, i got really addicted because sadly, it is the only mmo with good combat we available on the market (tab target in recent games is unnaceptable). But after a while, combat was not enough to make me reveal all problems: So many bugs, repetitive enemies, a tremendously big map where all places look identical and that you need to run from a place to another (altough you could do some fast travels, they were really expensive so it wasn't possible to use of this system frequently). My guess is that if Amazon kept working on New World for more time, it would be the best mmo on the market, but it is what it is

New World is a pretty damn good MMORPG. It's fun and accessible, and though it doesn't do anything truly new, it has enough little twists on existing ideas to keep me invested.

While New World isn’t a World of Warcraft or Final Fantasy XIV killer, it does prove that a new MMO can succeed. We’ll have to wait to see how they capitalize on their momentum.

I think it will be in a much better position with the new Aeternum update and the new maps, new professions and weapons planned to be added in 2025 Roadmap.

New World is a great theme park at its inauguration. Not all attractions are ready, some work well but need to be run in and others are still in the planning stage. There is absolutely no doubt that the foundations for something great are all there, benefiting from a colossal budget and substantially infinite resources, but it is equally true that what we now have in our hands is an introduction and nothing more.

The crowd who’ll be left out in the cold with New World are those looking for a rich narrative adventure akin to your typical MMO. That’s not really here right now, and it's unclear what plans Amazon has in store for it. Maybe in the future, with ongoing updates, New World can evolve into something truly special.

New World is one of the most beginner-friendly MMOs available, but its lacking quests and PvE makes me worried about the future. The PvP, however, is a blast.

As it stands a little over a month after launch, New World offers a solid PvP-focused, player-driven MMORPG experience that has long been missing from the genre, albeit one seriously held back by outdated quest design and a lack of interesting endgame content. Whether that changes in the months ahead remains to be seen, but for now, New World will likely only appeal to those who crave PvP and wish to paint the map of Aeternum the color of their chosen faction, repetitive questing and lack of content be damned.

A stellar crafting experience and surprisingly slick combat aren’t enough to compensate for the flaws in New World’s humdrum and frustrating quest design.

It is a great game that no one who likes survival and exploration of worlds should miss, those who score negative are the typical mmo pvp players, they believe that all mmo should be full pvp and only for them, that no one else can play them , the new world is an exception, it's a game that gives the solo player a chance to make friends within the game to achieve their goals, it's a real mmo, it lacks fixes but it's only been online for almost 2 years, there's another mmo that has been online for more than 5 years and still has bugs, if you want a new world to explore, a new world is your world and the best thing is that you choose the step in which you advance, it can be a healer one day and another DPS the next day, just changing the weapons, attributes and that's it. you don't depend on wasting time to level up another pj, you just level up 1, time is valuable enough to waste it leveling up 2, 4, 6, 10, different pj to be able to play with other weapons or classes.

This a shallow comparison but this game for me is the anti-thesis of SWTOR. Really fun combat paired up with a really boring story and dull activities. There is much to do in the New World but not much of it is really that interesting.
