  @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

  @playnewworld you gotta fix your freakin game!!! Just tried to log in, the game put me in a waiting line, booted me out, forced me to another server and i lost my whole friends list and company! Tried to look for Hudsonland and was not on server list! So pissed right now!

  @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

  @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.

  @MMORPGcom @playnewworld There were many talented people, but still: The game engine was rubbish Overall game was a buggy mess that they couldn't fix The game had no vision of tge playing loop Decisions and changes lacked consistency and were constantly contradicting previous changes It was inevitable

  @S_Berry_82 @playnewworld You're not understanding that even if they had 10x more players, Amazon would have pulled it anyways. This is not a "game bad" problem.

  Still 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.

  @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).

  @playnewworld A lot of promise but the bugs, lag and hacking messed this game up.

  @amazongames @playnewworld this raffelbones bug closing extraction in catacombs is infuriating ******* fix it you actually have a good game mode

  @playnewworld I think the subscription model is the way forward for MMOs. The way this game was monetized was very fair to the consumer, but not sustainable in the eyes of money hungry amazon. Creating and maintaining a live service MMO is a money pit and new world wasn’t bring in the $$$.

  @_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 ****.

  Hey @playnewworld I’m having a lag detected and time out issue with the game. I’m not having issues with anything else on my PC. I’ve restarted the router (I’m on Fiber). I’m hard wired. Verified game files. Game is on a current gen SSD. Updates done. Please help.

  @TweetsvanMaan @AscendanceLM @playnewworld I never blamed the devs, executives are absolutely the issue here.

  @SavvvoGames @JeffBezos @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"

  @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld Its secretly been the best MMO out there. It hit 1M concurrents on launch but was a mess with way too many problems and devs being too slow to fix things so everyone quit and never talked about it again. Recent upates made the game PEAK

  Denzel (@DenzelTwitch) reported 43 minutes ago

  @playnewworld You really should do atleast half the amount of $ refunded back. I bought this game once and refunded when you watered it down and changed design plans. Bought it again to see if you would fix it even bought it for someone else.

  @GrumpyPawsTV @zzzSkadi @playnewworld The first year wasn’t **** either, the game was buggy and had a lot of issues but they were pumping out solid content updates while fixing everything at a solid pace, main one being the brimstone patch

  @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.

  @playnewworld even the Original Blade and Soul server still alive after decade running as a service @bladeandsoul

  @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld Was also one of if not the most buggy game ever released sadly. Absolutely riddled with game breaking issues for a long long long time. Dead on arrival. One of the rare instances where the lay offs are fair given their performance.

  I am gutted, deeply sad and in a state of grief. It feels like after 1.7k hours like i've lost a friend. i met amazing people, forged friendships and had many laughter. I assume a live service game does not work anymore, Much like most MMOs. @playnewworld
