NEW WORLD How it is Shaking Up the MMO Genre
80New World the new MMORPG from Amazon Game Studios for 2021 is shaking up the MMO Genre, join me as I uncover what I believe to be the most key takeaways that developers and publishers are paying attention to and how that will shape the future of MMOs in my opinion!
Now, let me start by saying, that New World is still in it's honey moon phase although in it's final stages of the phase, things are still relatively fresh and new, people are still figuring out builds and learning the various aspects of gameplay in this new MMO virtual world, and I mention this because without really solid support from Amazon and relatively fast update cycles that tune in on not just bug fixes but with additional content and building upon what they have, this could get messy. This early from launch and with the major success I am going to assume that they will be all over these kinds of things. This video is inspired by an article I read on MassivelyOP.com and the link is in the description if you would like to read it yourself.
New World isn't out to shake the foundations of the MMO genre, it's not trying to bring you back with nostalgia nor is it trying to carve a new path through the existing various games that have come out in the last 20 years. What it DID do by launching was give everyone a AAA MMO that works very well, besides the ques that plagued it's initial launch of course, but to make a beautiful game world that is believable and dips it's toes into the fantasy genre but stays very low fantasy overall, it makes crafting and gathering very accessible and rewarding giving reputation, gold and experience, and it's overall a pretty darn smooth experience that FEELS GOOD. If you back up a bit and think about it, New World is pretty simple in design, it's not a big complication of systems or ground breaking new ideas, it's just doing things that have been done before but with astonishing results most of the time.
There will always be haters, but overall people are truly enjoying their experience in this MMO, and it's been awhile since we've had this opportunity to play in a fresh new AAA MMORPG world, and it FEELS GREAT. But if New World isn't rocking the boat, then how could they Shake up the MMO Genre as a whole? That's what I would like to discuss today!
