Besides, there are quests to help you along the way, while you progress along your journey.įundamentally, these quests do not differ from faction to faction, unfortunately. This is not to say that endgame is the sole fun part of the game, but rather to point out that the grinding is always fueled by motivation of a goal close by and not some distant future content. All in all, the gameplay loop boils down to an ever-present grind for higher levels, in every aspect of the game. Besides, after level 20, relevant equipment becomes scarce anyway, due to supply and demand, so putting in the effort to grind out your crafting early definitely pays off. There are always other things you can and should seek to spend your money on, such as housing. While it is possible to buy better equipment rather than craft it yourself, it just isn't worth it.Īll out war is expected to happen often in New World, but not daily The equipment itself can be, unofficially, divided into basic equipment, enchanted basic equipment, and enchanted crafted equipment. Loot drops are fine to tide over casual players for a while, but crafting is where the real equipment comes in. Gathering resources, crafting, doing quests, or just an all-out grind is what fills most of your gameplay experience, at least right now. As it stands now, be ready to visit a lot of farms, quarries, graveyards, and caves while questing.

New World, unfortunately, has nothing new to offer players after the first 15 hours of gameplay, at least in the PvE department.

The main quest offers a vague narrative as well but the exposition and storytelling were hardly masterfully crafted as the players are likely to lose interest and just skip the dialogue so they can keep grinding.Īs always, MMORPG gameplay can be divided into two broad categories, being the PvE and PvP.Īmazon has truly built a New World with this game, as it feels very alive and in constant motion, with both flora and fauna adding to the game's overall feeling of boundlessness. New World starts with a cutscene that elegantly shifts into character creation and eventually the place where you land but storytelling is quickly relegated to reading codex entries you find all over the place. Regarding the greater story arc itself, there isn’t much to be said.
In the end, each of these three factions can be switched with one another in-game, and no one would notice, as far as their distinct features are concerned, of which there are none. Though the players have mostly started building feelings of loyalty to one faction or another, these don't seem to be for anything else but based on belonging to your own group, whichever it is. Unfortunately, even with all of these colourful descriptions and potential for roleplay, the actual, in-game, distinction is brought down to the green, purple and yellow factions.
