- Jeff's New MMO is... Problematic! Asmongold watches a video by Josh Strife Hayes, who gives his first impressions about the upcoming Amazon's MMO New World. Asmongold has played a LOT of New World since the beta release and there are several issues that could kill its release if they are not addressed by Amazon Games Studios ASAP!. We have been waiting for a new MMO for years and after the 2020 delay, Amazon's must get this launch right!..

"Three factions that hate each other but all coexist in the same towns" haha
just like UN
Sounds like America 🏈
How to create legit faction diversity. Have faction specific Wifu's lol.
sounds like the Balkans
game look like shiet
Josh looks like a guy who's been to every streaming or CZcams course possible. Often an empty mug in hand for the appearance of a homely atmosphere, all kinds of boxes in the background to look like "your man", appearance, gestures and intonation pauses in the right places. Dude is seriously prepared :D
He was or is a teacher, so he knows how to captivate the ones that are listening to him, I like that a lot too
The mug is full
"Slightly Above Average" for an MMO is an achievement that comes but once a decade. Maybe less.
The game fucking sucks though.
@@PsyTranceKaitia maybe to you
@@PsyTranceKaitia Compared to what we've gotten the last decade or so? Nah, not really.
@@PsyTranceKaitia a lot of ppl disagree 🤔
@@m_rod9562 a lot of people? Most reviews says its shit aswell. Majority of viewers say its shit.
People who thinks its a good game, and even become "addicted" to it as some mention, lacks braincells.
Can't swap to the biggest faction, that is fine. But you will just end up with one faction being essentially empty. Hopefully they have other systems in place to encourage balance.
thats why gw2 WvWvW was nice it was just servers against each other so u couldnt choose to be in the best one. later on ofc ppl PAID for server swaps to be in winning ones but those got matched up against each other then and also small servers got paired with other small servers so they could just like bigger ones have their max cap of players in WvWvW at all times.
But in New World i feel one faction dominates and then one will or has to die out to merge into 2nd best so they can maaaybe retake something thus killing the 3 faction dynamicc kinda entirely. They need to think of rlly good ways to rebalance this shit. But its already a good start u cant join leading faction later on. Im wondering now if it would be the play then to wait with joining a faction till u realize which one is the winning one or not. But honestly it would in a way ruin playing with friends but maybe they should just randomly throw u into a faction lmao and force balance this shit idk but they need to find a way to not make 70%+ of the ppl be in the same one
@@bobby45825 Ideally that would be great, but we all know that isnt reality.
@@bobby45825 Yes, but usually when you play an underdog in a game like this you get compensated in some form. In this game if your faction gets wiped out, you are going to get penalized and your progression and rewards will be hurt because of it. Because of this it seems like in the span of a week every server devolves into a dominant faction, a weaker faction, and a faction that no longer exists.
@@matthewdunphy8524 My Faction at the start of the beta was the under dog faction, now we control 1/3 of the map. And the map is evenly split between all three factions, as long as your company can become good at PvP, you will always be able to climb up from nothing.
Underdog buff: XP and currency boost for the lowest pop faction.
"Imagine you ordered Dark Souls from Wish..." I died three times... lmao
And sadly his sentence continue with "no attack cancelling" which is next level casual shit for dummies.
@@midderftw Disagree, feints and backing out of unfavorable attacks is a real thing in combat, usually still not the most ideal so maybe have a slight penalty in an optimal scenario but should still be possible.
Harder should not have to require restrictions if it doesn't have to.
@@762x69 for real. This is so true right there. If new world had chilvary 2’s combat, it would be a truly next gen MMO.
I am enjoying playing the game but the leveling process is pretty ass, especially post 25. It’s wayyyy too grindy. The animations are super clunky and no animation canceling for dodge/block is unacceptable.
@Eric Dajernais Did he really though?
@@midderftw That game he mentioned has action cancelling ya damn casual. Same as dead angle attacks or charging a hit then turning, it baits out responses in addition to avoiding easy parries and gaining opponent information.
I’m here laughing my ass off at Asmon’s impression of the New World alligators…
It’s pretty on point. First time I fought one, I I thought it was cool it randomly hit me with the tail. Then I fought a few more and realized how easy their attack sequence is.
@@BGIANAKy what did you expect, some Ai god. It's a normal mob, you try to kill it and not die, compared to wow normal mobs this is worlds apart.
@@missionpupa yeah same opinion here. The whole time he was bad mouthing the alligators attacks I was just thinking of how varied the alligator attacks in WoW are. Was funny though 🤷♂️
@@z9ao7v you could update the mobs you dummy. its just code. Talk about copium. Jesus fckin Christ that was a pepega take.
@@z9ao7v One game had 19 years to fix their AI, one game did it in 2 :D
I predict a resurgence in WoW private servers because it’s obvious that the community can create a version of WoW the community wants without the toxicity of blizzards management.
I fucking hope so dude, I miss Nostalrius like you wouldn't believe
WoW pirate servers has huge problem - their playerbase. People on reddit are crying about "toxic mythic dps players" on retail, but just imagine the worst toxic keystone pusher, but as a WHOLE COMMUNITY. I played on pirated servers for like 10 years and i can surely say that like 80% of their playerbase is absolutelly brainded narcissistic a-holes without absolutely no shame, who would try to make you feel bad as possible even for a slight mistake you made, and even for things that are not a mistake, but still they think that "Any player should do"
@Dr. Van Nostrand the issue with blizzard on private servers is they don’t really go after private servers and for the most part they stay up. My friend asked multiple gms if it’s against tos to play on a private server and wasnt told no. If a private server is popular like nostalrius though and they just decide they hate it they send their lawyers and demand it shut down because they legally have that power. It’s such a ridiculous mindset to have imo
I am at a point where I just don't want to support blizzard anymore
@Dr. Van Nostrand for the most part.
The factions are a huge weak spot of this game imo. They don't feel different enough, it's like there's no 'lore' reason to root for whatever you choose, no drive to further a faction's goals. The whole thing seems so empty and artificial.
True. The pvp missions are just killing mobs and placing stuff too. So, it’s not like you’re required to fight ppl. Just run as fast as you can and run back lmao.
Sure there is, it's so you can control a boring place where your taxes will be lower. The game is literally so far from optimized that it destroys a 3070 in heavily occupied areas. This game is riddled with issues and only a week away from retail release and the company delivering it to us is literal garbage. This game will never be worth shit in my opinion.
Yeah they all just kind of come off as slightly different shades of pretentious asshole. Their reasons for wanting to kill eachother are nebulous and the personality and lore for each is lacking.
@@jamieofalltrades536 A week? You mean a month? You people...
@@jamieofalltrades536 its called a brand new AAA game. Ofcourse its hard to run. And guess what a 3070 is only a mid tier graphics card. They arnt top of the line by any means. The game runs super good on my pc. And as far as the quests being repetitive, believe it or not their is a big audience for that kind of content. It can be very relaxing to do repetivive grinding. And i personally am loving the game soo far.
Unfortunately Amazon only see this as a chance to grow in the gaming industry, not as a chance to make a great game.
It's a company they are focused on making money So sadly duh
cuz what company isnt? like these comments are so tired and played. you ppl act like money just grows on trees.
I feel that it's much too early to make that assumption (even if it's true, lol)
It’s Amazon. They aren’t a gaming company. They are a corporation. Anything they put out is about the money.
That being said, it’s the devs, game director, and crew you look to for the passion. They are the ones who are there because they want to make a good game.
Fingers crossed that the CEOs keep their hands off of it and let them make the game they want to make…I won’t hold my breath on that though.
@@ShadowProject01 Exactly bro, lettem know
You can go prone in a bushes and it hides your name. Great for ambushing enemy players.
Asmon: "Remove the stagger mechanic, I don't like it!"
Amazon: "ok, done"
Asmon, later: "this game's shit now."
Yep should of kept stagger on hits and stamina cost on attacks, just like it is in dark souls, too bad they listened when people whined about not being able to spam left click and win
Doesn't it have stagger on PvE in some cases or an i tripping? At least, I've been on autotun and stupid wolf bites me and now I'm doing a slow walk again.
@Nick Jordan what does an "actual economy entail?
@@Mr-R.R. eve online
That LindyBeige spears reference though.
I don't think Jeff Bezos knows what's happening to this game...
Ofc not, his job is numbers.
I don't think he know that amazon creating this game in the first place
No sh t lmao why would you even type this
his job is sponsor
Bezos probly doesn't even know about it man.. this is way below his paygrade
Loved the call out to Lindy Beige, and the spear episode in particular.

Uncultured kids I swear haha
@@NonsensicalSpudz Facts lol
@@NonsensicalSpudz I’m actually not old at all lol I’m just not ignorant and know a lot about the world . Y’all just sensitive
@@NonsensicalSpudz *Whoosh* lol
Yes it's not as great as people are making it out to be.
They are just so desperate for a new mmo.
I think so too. I dabbled with it via a friend's account, and it was fun, but I think it was definitely the "Honeymoon phase" as it really just doesn't seem to have serious longevity in its current form. It's close enough to release to judge by its beta, and without some serious creative additions, it just feels like a a waterd down ESO.
I disagree. I’ve put 100 hours into the beta. There are lots of MMOs I haven’t played that are technically “new” to me. But they just don’t interest me. This is the first time I’ve been excited about an MMO in years, despite the fact there are lots of other games that I could be playing instead.
@@Supernautiloid Agree. I'm at level 32 in beta and having a lot of fun. There's actually a lot to do and plenty of areas to explore. Some people might not like the openness of it. There's less structure than other games in the genre so people don't get that you have to make your own fun in the game, sandbox style. It kind of reminds me of old Ultima Online. I think its a good start and has a lot of room to grow.
@@TwitchCronos100 trying to scale mountains, roll off them afterwards and see if you survive, run in to a high level area by accident and run for your life from mobs that throw kidney stones at you, constant pvp, you can hide in a bush and gank and surprise people, you can take your clothes off and go prone in a fountain and somehow create an infinite ouroboros human centipede circle in the fountain of mostly naked prone men. Pve is okay, fishing is kinda fun too, it's a very nice looking game especially grassland areas so even just standing around is enjoyable in a lot of places. The combat despite only having 6 skills max has a lot of depth to it, with positioning, combos, synergy of weapons, build, animation canceling and so on. It's seemed both fun and fair so far, I died because I sucked and I won because the other guy sucked more.
@@TwitchCronos100
The biggest problem the game has at this time is a lack of content. Nobody denies that. The game is very sandboxy and relies heavily on player-driven activities. Some love that (I do), while some hate it. But the foundation is there. The combat is fun and engaging. The world is beautiful and lush. It can only get better from here. The only way this game can fail is if Amazon fails to support it post launch.
I really don’t understand why everyone is creaming their pants over new world. It’s average. Very average. It looks pretty, and their servers are relatively stable, but that’s it. No story, boring, clunky combat and an empty world.
I think the lack of meaningful PvE is what's going to kill the game, in my opinion.
You didn't play more than 1 hours did you?
@@babbsan123 43 according to steam, but nice try. There are other games already on the market that have everything new world has to offer, and more, that are fleshed out. I will Come back to this comment on 6 months and tag you with “told you so boi”
I love this game already. I love the pvp. I love the tax system, i love the war system, I love the benefits from owning territories. I love the crafting and resourcing system. I love the upgrading town system. I love the expeditions. I love that you can trade with players easily. I love that theirs a different market for each town. I love the faction system. I love the open mic everywhere. The world looks incredible. It has a deep progression feeling to it. I just love it
@@cozzy6547 43 isnt much at all, did you even get to lvl 20? But yeah at least mention the games that have everything that new world has to offer. Because right now it's just an empty statement.
I think the game looks great but I could do without the neon colored pets added to every home.
Honestly the game has been a blast so far, I've spent 50+ hours on the beta which is a lot for me since I don't have lots of free time and it went by so fast. I think long term it's not going to do great but at least for 6+ month's post launch it will be really fun.
ive had fun playing 25ish hours but not looking forward to playing those 25 again
I've played 100+ hours during this beta and had more fun than years of previous gaming toguether, also there has been a leak of new content already, and that includes 2 weapons, dual daggers and a void gauntlet with a possible new map
Yeah i think long term meh, for a good half a year and above it's gonna be quite a good time to spend on. But it needs qol improvements, it really needs to be worked on a bit longer imo. There's no minimap, the traveling in this game is absolutely atrocious, you are fighting the same 4,5 mobs everywhere in the world, they have no dungeon finder to que up for, you have to basically tell in chat you are looking for a group, the factions in the game have no lore and you don't understand why you choose one over the other, other players can bodyblock you, possibly trap you, you cannot swim and if you fall into deep sea you fall into the bottom. Mind you those are pirates and they cannot swim. lol Like there are many improvements to be made imo, before i can say, okay this is a contender in the mmo market, it definitely needs a bit morr variety in the content too, but the combat is super fun and it's cool it does play like dark souls a bit with the dodging attack and timing it well enough.
Whats the point if a mmo if its gonna be bad in the long term
TBH i feel the same, eveyone has had a blast. But i think endgame will not be that fun tho. IMO i enjoyed this game because it was refreshing to play something new and because they manage the imersion part of an RPG to perfection. Just walking in the open world and hearing people mine and shoot a musket miles away is kinda sick. Unfortunatley i don't see that feature as something exciting towards endgame, just like any game you will get used to it.
Also another thing that makes me mad is the oportunity for skins, like they are a few combination of skins and they don't look that good, trying to make your character look good in mmos is key, just look at GW2 (not that gw2 is the best game but it sure brings a lot to the table in this subject, legendary weapons look sick and make you feel sick)
It’ll probably take 6 months or so for them to work out some of the kinks, but it has a lot of potential from what I’ve seen
problem is it's releasing in less than a month LUL
It doesn't imo. Its going to die in 1 month
Bring back stagger, that is all thanks..
Outriders felt the same way… at first.
It doesn't. Poorly optimized. Need very good PC to make grouped activities
"Thanks Lindybeige!"
FUCK YEAH get that guys channel blown up its amazing!
bald men make the best content creators
Lindy is awesome!!
Vest wearing thespians, the lot of them
As soon as he said spears are the best medieval weapon I thought of Lindy, then a second later his face is on screen.
Dude is a thief and a liar. Check his kickstarter for his book.
I just dont know how they will make hard fights in this game, the mechanic system they have seems like its just going to be a boss that is called a boss because it has high hp.
For a first draft of dungeon bosses i have to say i was pleasantly surprised with the complexity. All bosses have multiple phases, in which they have different mechanics you have to deal with. Granted it's not hard, but at least it's not the simplest tank and spank.
There's your problem. You really don't want hard fights. You want FUN fights. A challenge doesn't have to be near impossible for you to have fun.
@@dakotawoodruff2622 You're just jumping to conclusions here bud. I"m just saying that for a first draft they at least have phases and mechanics. I was gonna suggest in a feedback post for them to work on hard mode dungeons.
@@dakotawoodruff2622 hard challenging fights are totally fun and man does it feel amazing when take it down. I don't want simple tank and spank I want more to make it feel like I earned it. I don't think there is anything wrong with that kind of thinking.
@@xXSinForLifeXx
What? Have you ever played TERA for example? A random BAM has more mechanics than anything I've seen in this game. "you actually have to dodge and move" wow such mechanics.
How do they fuck up the Servers???????? They literally have AWS
LOL FR!
32% of market share in that industry and still can't get it right LOL, people defending it because "beta" just don't understand the extent of resources they own.
@@Tekner436 Exactly, also for it to be coming out in a month and anyone that pre ordered can play the beta. The fact they didn't have servers ready to go is baffling. All the analytics they have on the American consumer and not know how many people would be pre ordering to play beta. It is not a bad game but i don't have high hopes for them fixing it all in a month.
The fact you belong to a holding doesnt mean said holding you grant you free stuff.
I only played like 20ish hours so far but i havent had any server or lag problems.
Despite all the issues, I am addicted to this game. I can't stop playing, which is more than I can say about my experience with other recent MMOs...
And why is this, what do you think?
@@Eclipse240 *Simple...* it's fun!
Yeah right Jeff
This game is garbage and is being overhyped for views on CZcams, it will dead in a month of release
@@habibmate8466 How about instead of listening to CZcamsrs who their only purpose is views and followers and give the game a fair chance?
Something tells me u just watched videos and never played the game.
" trillions dollar compagny this", "trillions dollar compagny that"...
This man really think Amazon is going full unlimited budget for this game lol 😅
I mean, Amazon Game Studios has a $500m a year budget. Even if only a 1/10 of that is going to NW that's still $50m a year which is more than any MMO has gotten afaik since NW has been in development since 2014 (even if they didn't have that high of a budget from the start, even just having it for a couple of years is insane). ESO and SWTOR had a rumoured $200m total.
Every one seems to fail to forget that this is the studio's first major game, too. It's like asking a highly touted college prospect to come in and dominate in the Major Leagues. Sure, it might happen, but you have to give them some time. The gaming community is so entitled it's insane.
I love new worlds asthetic, armor styles, and art style. 1700s era. Graphics are great, for that reason I'm going to try it for myself regardless of what anyone says. Well see what happens. It has great potential, and the devs do care.
Great graphics.its worse then witcher3 from 2015

likewise
I feel like it’s gonna be cyberpunk all over again with how buggy this game will be
I actually love the game currently. They have things they need to work on, but as of the last day of the beta. I love the game.
Saying they are a trillion dollar company doesn't magically fix the issue within the server. Just adding capacity doesn't just fix all issues.
This. I feel like the guy cant come up with anything constructive and just brings up Jeff's wealth to legitimize his points lol
@@famaffe stop tryna defend new world looks like dogshit xD next cyberpunk
The point is that because they are a trillion dollar company, one expects that they will have a bigger budget than most game studios, and that it should translate to better game play as they should be able to hire the talent they need
Amazon Games has their work cut out for them. Stakes are high and so are the standards
@@maybeitsyou1317 that was a beautiful comparison with the shart underwear
I feel like there's a problem where every aspect of this game screams "Cheap Early Access multiplayer game with crafting elements on Steam." that was flooding the market 6 or so years ago
Except they have the decency NOT to be in early access like the other scumbags and you can get your money back and also make a decision from beta access.
i already refunded it, i know theres zero chance ill be feeling any urge to login to it in the future.
He played 20% of the game which is basically tutorial mode. Once you get to 25+ and do dungeons, wars, etc. Thats when it becomes hard and fun.
"hard" and fun...... it's not hard but it is fun
Gonna be honest..I've been following new world since it was announced and never once has it even looked remotely like a good mmo
Hej ❤️
It barely even is an MMO... its like a survival sandbox with some rpg elements and no house/world crafting 😳 but tons of item crafting 😴
so you havnt played it? stopped leveling my 69 on tbc after playing new world wow feels so shit
Never had the running issue. Boars definitely fight back now. Game has potential but so did so many others this year that failed miserably. It's not a bad game, it just feels like it is missing something to put it over the top.
You had the running bug
I agree
The only bug I have seen was that once a ship took around 8 seconds for textures to charge (it was a giant white block for a couple seconds lmao)
The game is actually so, so good despite its flaws! It’s definitely unique and able to stand on its own. If they fix and adjust some things it will be excellent, it has loads of potential.
I will bet it will fail big time, the problem with action combat is that lag fucking kills you, once it rolls worldwide unless you have less than 80 ms delay any high end pvp will be unplayable.-

to be fair some of the biggest gripes from the dude who made the video are already fixed. had zero problem with animations and lag during the closed beta
Same, none of that I experienced
I don't understand why everyone expects a new mmo to compete with games like wow and ffxiv that has been there for many years. Every games have issues, developers are here to fix them and it feels like the ones behind new world are fairly quick on it. If you enjoy the gameplay and the atmosphere, that's all that matter. Play it, report the problems and relish on fixes. Games don't have to compete with one another. They are here for our enjoyment and fun which can be found in this new game that has a lot of potential to grow.
Ngl, I payed 40 euros to test the game. Luckily I enjoy the hell out of it.
Scammed
@@PMSTTR How, exactly?
"He's gonna have to do something stupid." Drink yorkshire tea on stream and praise them.
Lumberyard ... I remembered that in my graduate class, we used to get to use Unity and Unreal and one day, some amazon engineers had a workshop for us to learn and use their Lumberyard.
Oh my godness, that has to be one of my darkest times.
Not surprised. Lumberyard originating from a company who wasn't paying its employees.
Could you elaborate a bit? I've used Unity and Godot a bit, but not Lumberyard. How bad is it?
@@moon-vf3uj lumber yard is a fork of cryengine. Think the crysis games. A lot changed between lumber yard and cryengine. Not many studios have picked up lumberyard opposed to the likes of unity and unreal. I can't comment on lumber yard's difficulty.
one of amazon's major services is AWS which owns and rents out a massive amount of servers, wouldn't know that going off of NW server stability.
Even after putting over 100 hours into the beta, I never really had many issues. I got lag maybe 1 or two days that I played, but besides that the game ran perfectly fine.
lucky or lying. No 3rd option.
@@joshanonline Most likely lucky. Or Third option, I was having to much fun to notice the bugs.
I haven't ran into any issues either and the only time i got lag was when i entered a new city for the first time. Literally no luck involved, just not running on a streamer server
@@joshanonline I never ran into any issues either with 100 hours
I had no issues with stability at all, maybe if you were smart enough to avoid streamer servers... Ohh wait.
I love how the quest showing on his screen is named "this is not good" lol.
As an Amazon employee I have been testing this game since alpha :). The company does supply keys to employees that sign up for the testing program ( Most don't know it exists). I'm not sure how they disperse them but I have gotten keys to this game, lost ark and most of the other amazon titles :). Don't trash amazon too hard! I will agree there are many things that need fixing AI, combat/animations, add more variety in items and their appearances. Great beta though let's see what they do with th feedback as that is the most important thing, how they take criticism
The pvp outplay ability is excellent imo.
I have to say. I haven't encountered bugs really and servers are running great. Not sure if it was a bad overload on the first week. Game feels great to play. Good combat, beautiful environments, serene moments coupled with hectic pvp battles. Not bad at all. We'll see.
Can we have an Asmongold puppet show? That croc was hilarious!
Actually you can’t switch to a dominating faction. It will just tell you something along the line of “faction owns too much territory”
The simple fact that "pvp" quests are: grab letter and put it in another box, go here and sit in a bush for 1,5 minutes, kill 5 wolves; And not a single one of them requires any sort of pvp is the saddest part.
That and every quest you do takes forever because there's 30 minutes of running from city to quest obj in an empty world, the only distraction being gathering materials you run across on the way, but now your running time takes even longer because you're stopping every 5 steps.
If no one is trying to start a war with your settlement, you're not going to find many pvp'ers on your pvp quests. You're either being blatantly biased or you just don't like MMOs. The former is a fairly ignorant approach.
New world seems really good mmo but needs a lot of work, but I think it has potential
When they fix the problems then it will be very saucy!!!
@@rayaaningram5587 it's releasing in a month though..

Just wanna point out, I've legitimately never seen this running glitch in like 70 hours & don't know anyone else that has. What about you guys? This is so weird to see xD
i saw it once in amrine, but it only happened for like 2 seconds, it looked like one of my legs were broken while i slid on the ground, then it corrected. havent seen it before or after (i have 104 hours played at the time of this comment)
I haven't either, this is pretty harsh tbh
but then Amazon is a trillion dollar company....but then again they don't specialize in games and this is a brave attempt at actual graphics + their own engine.
@@welsh_steel2285 Yeah, I'm kind of more in that camp of thought. Like, sure they have endless money, but we don't know how much money & resources were given to these devs for this project. Silly that this is a factor for a company so large (and one that owns a game streaming website in Twitch), but it's worth noting.
@@welsh_steel2285 Just because they are a trillion dollar company it doesnt mean they will dump it all into this game.
One fact you have to understand as a company is that before you decide to get into a project you need to first evaluate the estimated profits the game will give back. So the cost of making the game and keeping the game live can never go over the profits.
It seems like people have a hard time grasping this concept when in fact its very simple, no company in the world is ever gonna create a game just to be nice to their customers and fans and willingly loose money on it.
If you’re quitting WoW over working conditions, why would you play New World?

I think I'll give this game a go.
Two nerd points though
1: Jeff Bezos doesn't work for Amazon, he's just a founder and shareholder.
1.5: Jeff Bezos going to space is a completely separate company called Blue Origin.
2: Lumberyard is no more, it got rewritten and made open source, it is now called Open 3D Engine. A former fork of Cryengine and the same engine used for Star Citizen.
Never saw running like that in the game in the 400 hours of play.
Combat is the life blood of any MMO, and it's the weakness of New World. If they put in some work on the combat, and make it skillful, and intelligent, they'll have a real winner with this game, because most everything else in the game is great.
Combat isn't bad, but it's screaming for obvious improvements to it.
400 hours in a beta for a wipe jesus christ.
@@BoydTheMilkmanX I was in Alpha and Beta.
@BlackDog No, I played Alpha for most of that time, I didn't play much of Beta.
Interface in BDO allows you not only to find resource locations (nodes) but also spawn points for each individual mob. It also shows the level range for players so they know if that spot is good for them to farm. So, just to be clear, New World didn't make a breakthrough with this feature.
Oh weird, I'm a little worried now because I didn't have any animation issues or lag.
When I played this part the cinematic showed two captains in the cutscene
That feel when the only real complaint in the video is about server performance and some minor bugs in a BETA. They had 200k peak concurrent players as well so server issues were expected and they've already identified and fixed problems that were causing instability. Being a trillion dollar company doesn't automatically fix every technical issue in the world, and even if they could just throw money at it to fix it (which wasn't the case here) the game still has to be financially viable so them being a trillion dollar company doesn't mean they can spend trillions on the game. I personally didn't really experience any server instability and to my knowledge almost all server instability issues have been resolved for the most part.
I also think he's underselling the combat a bit considering he's judging it at low level, with no abilities, against PvE mobs which are always boringly easy in every game. PvE is never hard, PvP is where combat shines and in this game the PvP combat is spectacular. Given the fact that those are his two main complaints, and one is has been fixed while the other is subjective and possibly fixed by him just leveling up and accessing more abilities, I don't think calling the game "slightly above average" is a justifiable rating. New World is easily one of the best MMOs to release in the last decade and it looks to have a very bright future. It's at least a 7-8 out of 10 right now and hopefully will continue to get better after launch.
Let's be real, this wasn't beta footage. This shit must've been footage he had from the alpha last year
Trade skills are done better than in any other game. That is my take.
I agree from what I’ve experienced so far
I wonder if amazon actually considers the survey they let you do at the end of playing. Because i've made several points i think are important for them to work on still, considering however it is suppose to launch end of august, i'm not sure.
The UI is good BUT we need to be able to change placement of stuff on the screen, change the colors of compas etc because that sucks in the game..minimap should be good to have and be able to zoom in more on the "resours areas" etc. The UI is clean AF and good in many ways but some customization would be awesome
i don't understand the "trillion dollars company" thing about new world. i know amazon is a trillion dollar company but amazon games studio certainly wasn't given a trillion dollar budget to make this game. if anything they were underpaid and overworked
it's fine to joke and be like wow my guys t posing in this trillion dollar game hahaha but when you use it as a legitimate reason for criticizing a part of the game it seems disingenuous
@@nickpurdy69 and that maybe so. but i would also argue that if the game wasn't hyped up as a trillion dollar game like it was then it would be at the very least meeting people's expectations for a new mmo
edit: more to your point you would think amazon is aware of their games studios awful track record with games and would give the new world devs a larger budget, but who knows because they'll probably never release their official budget
This has been the most frustrating thing for me around New World. Your average guy has no idea that there is a huge difference between Amazon and Amazon Game Studios. They share a name and that's about it. The actual overlap between Amazon daily business procedures and AGS is slim to none. It's an extension of Amazon but for all intensive purposes AGS is their own business entity. But what else can you expect for Baldmans omega brain chat.
Oh my goodness. That's the point dick-head. He was saying that this game should have had a bigger budget.
@@makokenji4350 no reason to be a dick. If anyone is a "dick-head" it's you for immediately popping and being aggressive. And moreover AGS for all intensive purposes is their own company. They have their own funding, their own department heads. Amazon is the parent company. But functionally AGS might as well be any other game studio. It is related to Amazon essentially name only.
Agreed these streamers just saying this shit to drive engagement, Im surprised Josh sounds so bitter and negative in this, he's usually better composed. Amazon Games is probably given the littlest amount of money and expected to do the most with it. Not defending them or anything but people need to use their fucking heads instead of just listening to these types of videos and taking it as gospel.
Faction games that allow them to effect the game always end up one sided. Eventually one will become dominant and it kills the game for everyone else. It's why I have currently been avoiding the game. I see a problem later with it...but who knows, maybe they will make it so it doesn't effect enough to cause damage. Time will tell. I foresee a push on this game anyways, if they release as is, I see it flopping.
Comparing to the preview the biggest issue i noticed is that they removed animation cancelling.
And the control response is quite bad.
Ife server is also purple. We "yellows" tried to hold them off of First light. There is just one area of green which will have fallen tonight.
ESO doesn't have minimap (unless you use mod for it) and I actually think it is better that way. Less distraction and you cant see shit on minimaps anyway.
But ESO, or the elder scrolls games overall does have a minimap, though it's a very special variant. the compass like bar is considered a type of mini map since it shows you quest locations and so on.
Sometimes I feel like the reason why we haven’t had any good mmorpgs in such a long time is not because the devs or the games, but the players. Do the players really know what they want in an mmorpg? Or do they just want to complain about how flawed everything is nowadays? If the game has a cash shop, they say it’s pay to win. If the game is too grindy, they say it doesn’t respect people’s time. If a game is too hard, they say it’s not for everyone. If a game is too easy, they say it’s not challenging enough. If a game has too many story quests, they want the quests to be award winning. If a game has too few quests, they say it feels empty and doesn’t give people anything to do. If a game allows people to solo, they say it’s not a multiplayer game. If a game promotes team play, they say it’s forcing people to play in a specific way. If the game is lagging, they just assume it’s the server’s fault, not their own internet. Do they remember what the MMORPGs were like back in the days when the MMORPG genre first emerged? Do they remember how much fun they had as long as there was a world where they could play with other people in? There were no quests, only some fantasy worlds with background stories that might as well not exist, some monsters that people could grind for loot and XP. There were no endgame other than getting to the max level and getting the best weapons and armors, leveling alts, maxing out alts, leveling more alts. But didn’t we all have fun and weren’t we content with what we had at a certain point? So what changed? What do we really want? What matters more to us, the players, in an mmorpg? The game? Or the people? Again, what changed?
I completely agree. I have been saying the same thing for years. People think WoW sucks, but every time a new mmorpg comes out, everyone just wants it to be like WoW. Teleporting to dungeons suck apparently, but in a game where there is no teleporting to dungeons, people think it takes way to long to run there, and like you pointed out, it "doesn't respect people's time" and so on. You are spot on sir.
Agree with you on everything but the internet part. It's easy to know if it's your internet or the server lmao
@@mathieuraquepas6612 You have a point lol
@@latjolajban81 I’m honestly surprised that there are people agreeing with me lol but I’m glad you exist brother.
@@poisonated7467 oh there are some idiots out there, I personally just don’t think it’s you lol
It's kind of weird when everyone mentions Amazon being a trillion dollar company. This is just a studio within the company, not the entire company. They don't have access to choosing their budget to be 3 billion dollars lmao.
They are fucking simpletons. As if the Dev team has access to Amazons total wealth. Ugh!
Because people are either stupid or/and insincere.
As well as just being haters.
Asmongold was wrong on the shield thing btw, the relative damage bonus for stamina damage is way higher on heavy atacks then on light attacks so using a heavy against the shield was proper
I guess its just popular to be as negative and whiny as possible nowadays. Half of what this guy said isn't even accurate. The footage shown isn't even from the beta, so I'm not sure why that footage was used instead of more recent gameplay.
The game seems fine, and is actually running fairly smoothly relative to most modern MMOs at this stage in their development. Everyone I know who has tried it is excited to play. Of course there's the whole issue of is it going to be P2W with some sort of cash shop boosts. We won't really know that until release. If it is P2W then I can see it being dead within a few months.
I agree with this completely. Everyone that I’ve talked to including other streamers and people in my discord say they really enjoy it
Yeah this looks like old alpha footage plus this dude hasn't even really played it seeing this footage
I might remember that Asmon said: "WHO GOES PURPLE IS AN ABSOLUTE LOSER" lawl...
I look forward to watching all the other channels videos reacting to your New World review video, when they release them.
I beg to differ I was hyped about this game before even knowing it was from Amazon
Imagine paying 40 bucks for a beta. I gotta go buy a WoW token and store mount now.
Considering there was literally not a single friendly NPC or quest on the map 2 yrs ago, The strides they've made is nothing short of astounding. It could be a fantastic game. Unfortunately, the direction of early development was changed mid stride to more PVE focus which hampered their progress. Its got a solid foundation though. I just hope there is enough interest in the game for them to continue their progress.
Voice acting for brazilian portuguese is great...we have too many famous voice actors, we have Goku as the marauders faction leader on some city that i can't remember
Not having animation cancel is the biggest flaw of this combat system. I do see the enemies telegraph their attacks, but even if they do so mid my attack I don't have the time to dodge or block it because my dude needs to finish hios attack first. Gets very frustrating sometimes. Especially every little enemy can stagger me and interupt my attack, but O can't stagger them.
Definitely has potential. I must have gotten lucky, I never had bad lag or frozen running animation. I like how they are patching daily
Yeah honestly, it has lots of potential, and Asmongold is a fool. Every game has bugs and glitches early on. It’d be best to focus on legitimate issues with the game. And walking bugs aren’t one of them.
Stopped watching his low IQ video at that point. It’s an unconstructive waste of time.
same
I really enjoy Asmon reacting to Josh's videos. I hope both can be on a video together one day
Him on Allcraft please
"Lag detected" Iron man's voice in my head: -Yeah, i detected that too.
There's no reason to make fast travel a pay transaction...it's so easy to do once you get your Azoth Staff and start collecting Azoth. I'm always overflowing with the stuff even though I use it to teleport between cities for crafting.
Its also used for crafting too. While I do agree its can be easy to get with gathering tools having a skill to obtain it too. I just hate they place such a low cap on it though.
it really has so much potential a lot of good things going just needs refining. They have the budget that's for sure
Well most of the problems he mentioned here have been fixed or atleast addressed in the open beta. Definitely looking like Amazon actually care about the game.
@@tounsiforlife2317 Still think that?
Dude the beta was super fun im pumped for Aug 31st. Pvp is alot of fun also I only got to level 31 but I also didn't want to go all in on a beta. Also I would like to say this game has come a long way and this video makes the game look bad but bugs are being fixed daily.
This is true, but they are even bad at fixing bugs. They said they fixed the infinite slow bug, and my friend is still getting it so... he's pissed.
@@joshanonline If you download and play a Beta and you get pissed off for having bugs you need sit down and think about what you are playing.
Litterally the whole point of a beta, its not a demo
@@famaffe it's a beta..... a month away from release, so people SHOULD be pissed by these sorts of bugs since a month is very little time to fix a lot of it
@@joshanonline True man far from perfect but hey I imagine it's pretty brutal trying to make all the systems click in a big game like a MMorpg. Hopefully things turn out good! I just want a new mmo to be able to Pvp in. Thankfully you can log out etc to usually fix the problems.
I'm pretty sure when they said they fixed the bug they meant they fixed it on the actual release build not the beta build
I think Josh does a disservice to the game with his point of "a trillion dollar company". The games studio does not have that budget. They are not the trillion dollar enterprise. They are essentially a startup company with a couple of super small projects with a really rich investor.
An mmo is a “super small project”??? lol
@@cmoney163 Amazon games is super small and all their previous projects are really small. They go after, comparative to their previous work, a super ambitious headline MMORPG. If release even goes just decently for them, amazon will pump them with tons of budget, that is when you will be able to make the argument that amazon games is a "trillion dollar company".
@@impact783 I ain’t arguing, just thought it was funny lol chill b
@@cmoney163 :* have you tried the game? I actually kinda like it tbh
The unspoken bond of camaraderie was the best part
Quite enjoyed the Beta and looking forward to full release, love watching WoW fanbois get all upset that other people may like this more than WoW.
I think he's playing on NA servers from the UK. Might explain some of the issues he was having.
Even when the running animation works, it looks like the guy's running on treadmill.
11:00 Same bro had no idea this was there hahaha
Find myself amazed I never saw the skating not once in my 100 plus hour beta playthrough so far
100 hours in a Beta .. Sad.
@@beyondthedetails Only got to lvl 25 if it makes you feel better
Probably the best MMO on launch so far. Compared to all other MMO's on launch, this is just way better, and the potential is way higher. Can only imagine how dominant the game will be after an expansion or two, even in its current raw state, it blows out WoW Classic and FFXIV out of the water.
Hate it or love it, you cant deny that we needed a crafting focused MMO for awhile now.
should've played Albion online, exactly what this game is but came out years ago
@@Gu3ssWhatsN3XT except Albion is PvP focused, and also a birdsview type of game. I dont care for PvP at all, and i never got into Albion cause id just get ganked when getting outside, + the shitty subscription and p2w is something im glad New World doesnt have.
Albion had a good concept but its nowhere as good as New World, even though it obviously inspired it somewhat.
AA box price, no sub and no p2w shop (yet) seems fair to me. Remember wow has AAA box price, $15 sub, shop and p2w feature (token). I think ff is like wow in that regard, in not sure.
The reason the quest take so long is because they want you to do side quest while running to the main quest
