First 30 hours or so of the game pulls you in but once you get to that level 30 ish mark you start to see everything the game has to offer. I put in a good amount of hours into the game to see how end game is and if things will change but the game doesn't wow you as much as the initial 30 levels or so.

Pros:
- easy game to get into
- decent graphics that have a realistic vibe
- probs has the best life skilling in a mmo ive ever tried
- fun crafting
- pvp is fun
- wars are fun and easy to get into
- loot system (think about a loot shooter style game such as destiny)
- who ever made the sound effects needs to be promoted ASAP because sometimes it feels like im being blown away. Sound effects is on a whole new level in this MMO game.

cons:
- What you see at level 10 is the same at level 60
- boring story that doesn't lure you in
- most boring questing and levelling system, most people might get burnt out by level 30-40
- quite a number of bugs, instead of been fixed alot of things have been disabled (as of writing this)
- while combat is simple to get into, there is not much to it (this could be a pro for some)
- skill tree could be done better
- end game is boring
- poorly made dungeons, a few of them are okay though but nothing that has a huge wow factor to it
- no NPC what so ever, the game feels absolutely lifeless, they should off added mini camps with NPC roaming around or guards doing patrols, if this game had 0 players it will look like a ghost town
- rinse and repeat designs, you start to notice a pattern that alot of things start to look the same
- boring travel system, I don't mind not having mounts but I have no idea why they didn't add a sprint buff when you're running on the road? This leads you to get bottlenecked in azoth.
- Hard to earn money, sure you can farm raw materials and sell them at the auction house but with the lack of gold going through the game has enabled players on holding their gold instead of spending it. The best way to make gold is to do life skilling but some people don't like doing that. Some people prefer to grind mobs or do other methods of making money.

Overall New World is OK at its best, they have taken the best things from other MMO games and tried to take on a fresh take on the genre. The whole corrupted portals reminds me of the rifts in the mmo game Rift or in ESO. The crafting has a similar aesthetic like runescape or ablion. The pvp isn't too punishing unlike some other MMO games. If you want to do a major war its as easy as signing up, unlike games like BDO, organising node battles requires time to prepare. The list goes on here honestly. What I do appreciate the most about New World is that this should give other MMO devs the opportunity to take the best things from New World and make it better. So I 100% can see that New World will set a new benchmark on how MMOs can capture success.

I will tune back into New World in the future or play on or off if I want to do some life skilling because i really enjoy that aspect to the game. I hope AGS has learnt from this and takes the feedback from the player base and make this game amazing. It has huge potential but right now it kinda feels like im playing a beta and im testing the game in its current phase.

Needs to have a catch up system in the game. mini games are somewhat poorly designed. level design is kinda average and the weapons in game can be a cluster to use. for example if 2 people have teleport, it can become a cat and dog race on who uses their last teleport. Overall the game is at least ok, just when you have other quality party games on the market, this gets boring quite quick after a few hours of playing.

So worth the buy. Really amazing desisnged skins, a few non p2w weapons and the bonus blood bonds to go with. If you were ever an early access person or just joined the fun of this game and loving it, show crytek some love and support them. This game has gone through some fantastic changes over the spam, so im keen to see the future skins they will add.

The game is better then what i thought. I haven't put in alot of hours into it so far so things may change but i am enjoying the game so far.
Hopefully down the track they add in more PVE content and customization.
Looking forward for the future for KurtzPel
