Ugh. OK, I'm gonna stop with this. 79 hours and my character is at level 53 out of 60. Seems like I'm hitting a wall with some boss and I'd have to do a bunch more grinding and I just don't care any more.
Maybe I should learn a lesson here, that I always burn out of MMOs at some point and realize I'm not enjoying it. I don't have experience with modern CRPGs yet to know if they're less gimmicky and more inherently fun. This one is a treadmill of fetch quests with nice graphics.
Got this on sale a week ago for 20 bucks. I like it so far! I don't do subscription MMOs, or play "endgame" stuff, but this is fun for numbers-going-up. I'll probably take a character to level cap and then stop. This works well streamed via Nvidia's GeForce Now and the graphics are great.
I have played new world since the first beta and have invested over 1299 hours into it plus another 241 hours on the test server. I have enjoyed the hell out of it and its really a good game it just needs more content. I have no intention of quitting it anytime soon.
Started playing this one, have to say, not bad at all. Let's see how long it lasts.
The excitement of a new MMO nuzzles up to me like a tiger in the bush. I know its there, just waiting for the perfect moment.
To have a brand New World to explore is tantalizing but after spending egregious time in the MMO genre, I know an unfulfilling core is hidden inside the ultimate progression loop that gaming has to offer.
It took a long time to learn that MMOs have been a practice of isolation, in two worlds at once. Both worlds demand time from the other at a moments notice. Failing to find a place to belong in one pushes me to escape to the other.
A huge part of me wants to jump back into another fray of discovery, loot and the incalculable human element. If I was able to give all my time, to see every class, skill tree, expansion and experience, I still feel like I would come up empty in the end. Its odd then, how a new MMO whispers that maybe this time it wont.
