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.

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.

Diakou (@diakou) reported@STTP_WILSON @LSXYZ9 @playnewworld skill issue, the actual broken part was the netcode being client authoritative
-
Fellow Platypus (@Fellow_Platypus) reported@playnewworld Guys c’mon. The dialogue skipping still hasn’t been fixed. What ******** guys. Please fix this ****, I can’t listen to a conversation without skipping dialogue when I press the next button.
-
SapTheseCasters (@SapTheseCasters) reported@playnewworld Take WoW for instance. The servers lag when there's a world boss in a zone, the customer support is literally chatgpt, the story was terrible or boring for years, so the endgame progression and collections are the only real reasons it's still going.

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

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.

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
-
Liliums (ᛚᛁᛚᛁᚢᛗᛊ) (@Elsdragon01) reported@playnewworld the game should remain online. without updates, patchs, fixes anything. maybe gm service's but from volunteers. under staff management. this is why the "stop killing games" started. new world IS a good game. just no one listened to feed back and did anything. (so it felt.)
-
Maor Dervis (@maordervis) reported@playnewworld Another live service bites the dust
-
Steven The Heathen (@StevenHeathen) reported@RinoTheBouncer @playnewworld And I hope Amazon sells it to someone who can take it over. It had its issues, and there were things I really wanted to see change, but NW has flashes of greatness and there's no reason why this game should go down.
-
Zaccaiah (@Zaccaiah) reported@playnewworld Get on the horn with Papa Bezos and work on giving all of us a refund. I'm sure that was the plan since you've removed the game for purchase and are completely shutting the servers down, right? Only right that you do so. Do the right thing, not the profitable one.
-
Michael Taylor (@mikerichtaylor) reported@elonsawankstain @Ayejess5101 @playnewworld The quality of these "seasons" is the issue, not division. The results are also self evident.
-
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
-
Captain Killjoy (@earsinajar) reported@YaBoiWiilly @playnewworld We no lifed the game for weeks until it became clear they couldn't fix the unplayable lag in endgame. Never made sense to me that the World PvP was so good but then it's all decided in an INSTANCED zone that didn't work.
-
Denzel (@DenzelTwitch) reported@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.
-
Bereket Tesfay (@BereketTesfay) reported@npcsolananews @playnewworld Unfortunately.. it’s in that fine print terms of service that they don’t have to give you a damn thing. but they SHOULD! When Stadia ended Google refunded everyone for every game they bought, every month they were subscribed to the service, AND they even refunded hardware bought
-
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.
-
Tebow (@MinEffortLive) reported@playnewworld >500 Twitch employees laid off >Amazon's first game has support ended Are they ready to admit they're in trouble yet?
-
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.

Matheus “Cursed” Almeida (@TheusAlmeidaa) reported@playnewworld Fix the servers! 5k people on SA servers, i just cant play at night.
-
Stephen Fuller (@_Anluan_) reported@playnewworld Pathetic. Even EQ still has live servers that dedicated players are able to still play on. We now know we can never trust any future products of Amazon Games or their cloud gaming service “Luna”
-
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
-
Rikku (@FindTheRikku) reported@4ngryBe4ver @playnewworld SG is Singapore. It'll be better for both Aus and Sea players. So ******* annoying to play this game with 150+ ms, meanwhile Aus doesnt have any problem with pings and its soo anoying to play pvp
-
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
-
Hoff (@hoffapproved) reported@towelthetank @summit1g @playnewworld Dude. If people love the game. They need to spend money on it. Plain and simple. This is a live service product with a cash shop. Be real.
-
NRT (@OfficialMr_NRT) reported@dev_katyk @playnewworld There appears to be an issue with Easy Anti-Cheat issuing permanent bans without a clear reason. Multiple players have been affected, often receiving a ban message on the main menu after a long period of inactivity. Please Help!
-
xstitchx (@xstiitchx) reported@playnewworld there’s a issue at brimstone fort. Frames drop soooo low , my ps5 sounds a Boeing 747 taking off. Slim chance but can it be looked at xD
-
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

Öner (@kaan9621) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld Fix the bugs in your game first.
