-
Propi (@Propii69) reported@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
-
Yhanabow (@culturecomplain) reported@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.
-
Mindwipe (@SoloMindWipe) reported@playnewworld Absolutely insane. Sure the game had issues and you lost a lot of players with those dumb server queues and the initial bugs, but shutting it down after this very good expansion...stupid.
-
Enomao (@Enomao86) reported@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"
-
NO1 (@NO1Kn0wsss) reported@BagginsTV @ShultsyPlays @playnewworld bug issues isn't what he's referring to, its the lack of content for the past 2 years besides the last month of content, the game has had close to zero hits in terms of updates other than the revamped structures to zones.
-
Adam Mackenzie (@ForceUk) reportedcome on @playnewworld please can you sort the servers only 1 taking character creation in EU and it has a que of 2400 no creation in the others and still queues. Please fix this
-
Verlis (@Verliswolf) reported@StevenJSharif @amazongames @playnewworld New World is my favorite MMO of all time. After the first major updates a lot of launch problems were fixed and it became the best MMO that kept getting better but wasn't given a second chance
-
Tame Token (@tametoken) reported@playnewworld More players would complete the raid if you fixed Gems not working in armor.
-
Nyseetem (@nyseetem) reported@DarkPancakes @TheFizzyMind @playnewworld Have you tried putting your friend in a bag full or rice ? He seems broken :') Ahah
-
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
-
Lemmonnnn (@Lemmonnnn13) reported@playnewworld Right after the release of nighthaven? I mean, what ******** are we to do with gold cursed coconuts? This is actually bullshit because I’ve put thousands of hours into this broken *** game and I’ve stayed by AGS’s side since release, only to be betrayed like, this. Wtf man
-
Matheus “Cursed” Almeida (@TheusAlmeidaa) reported@playnewworld Fix the servers! 5k people on SA servers, i just cant play at night.
-
Kamil Wójcik (@kamonke22) reported@DidItMyWayYT @playnewworld bro discovered game as a service xD Should have read the terms of agreement before accepting.
-
AD (@AD1396AD) reported@vobic13 @playnewworld Clearly it was already in the works, and almost finished anyway. What's your problem with the devs wanting to honor the customers one last time, despite being laid off? Stop with the clown logic.
-
David Fedor (@DavidFedor6) reported@playnewworld So basically they are shutting the servers down at the end of 2026 but still allowing people to make in game purchases of their "premium" currency. Unreal.
-
Panciako (@AntyPanciak) reported@playnewworld Ok set game to f2p for rest of service
-
WhitePhosphor 🇺🇸 (@MTNJaeger) reported@playnewworld @amazon never using your service again and sure as hell won’t be touching an AGS game moving forward. Shady business practice with this choice. You guys really suck!
-
Essa (@EssaEssa1210662) reported@playnewworld still there is lagging in the game
-
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.
-
MMO_Bean (@rdj4014) reported@StanKnight0077 @Robovader123 @playnewworld I imagine those players weren’t actually loyal to the game only to trying go engagement farming when they were talking shite about the game. The game had its issues, but for me personally it was a perfect blend of everything I enjoy about an MMO and was really laid back. I’ve never been a min/maxed or hardcore PvP player though and I noticed most people that I saw complaining were hardcore PvP driven and the type to rush through content and then complain there wasn’t any.

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.
-
**** 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.
-
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.

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
-
Osiris.BCN (@OsirisBCN) reported@playnewworld I still remember when they wanted to sell the game and promised ten years of service...
-
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.

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.

Mask Loser (@bitking_crypto) reported@playnewworld Wow amazing potential terrible Dev team running Been the issue the whole time
