WHAT ARE WE THINKING? What will happen with NW? Are you excited?

The problem is the very bad taste any LOTR fan has in their mouth when you say "Amazon LOTR".. many will think of the dumpster fire that was rings of garbage

NGL if New World was just the testing ground so we can get a decent LOTR mmo I wouldn't be mad.

This is my first mmo and I'll stick it out to the bitter end. Kinda feels like what happened with Fortnite Save the World, which came first. StW was a huge game when it came out. Though when Epic hopped on the battle royal style game genre bandwagon...StW was slowly forgotten about and we just got recycled and repeated content constantly...so it slowly died. Truly am now worried a bit 😢

A MMO will take at least 5 years to make, so thats 5 years of New World, but for them to support both they need to hire more staff! Blue Protocol is horrible, i cant understand anyone who will play it... Ashes, will never launch... and WOW is so far out of date, the people who still play it are the ones that cant leave because they put to much money in it... WOW is out of date and needs to go away.

I hope LOTR will be as beautiful as New World. The design, (minus the meme skins) is something they are amazing at.

yay new mic or fixed mic - i can hear you clearly now

There is already a LOTR MMO.........

I am extremely concerned if they use Lumberyard instead of UE5 for this.

Great video man!

I'd play the game- but not with a lot of the players it attracted. Fun while it was fun(alpha/beta).

Nah mate, think of New world as a testing ground MMO, and alot of effort is put into it. Since Amazon games owns both of these its only right if they update both games as it will bring in more rev and players aswell. MMO games lifetimes usually last 10 to 20 years, New World will always have more content over LOTR mmo.

LOTR might work out if they take their time and release a polished game with end game content day 1.

New World has suddenly stopped tried yesterday and today..no worlds available

Can it be that new ideas are running out for new world? It wont take much for this game to totally collapse. I know that I will check in every couple of days. For me New World is over. No more money spent on this game.

I believe that new world will be a test realm for new ideas. Then in 5-8 years later Lord of the rings will come out. If new world is still at current levels it will close at the 10 year mark. That way AGS can keep their promise. I still like new world and will keep playing.

Yes, that might or might not happen, and by the time it does, I'll be a pensioner. 😄

I'm happy for the LOTR game but I'm sure it will hurt NW's development.

I mean... NW died a year ago. Brimstone revived it for a couple of weeks, but the same issues resurface every time. The only decent end game content is war, and it's accessible to like 10% of the player base, even with the war CD change

I think New World will eventually fall off. It has anyways had an issue with its engine and I would love to see a LOTR MMO with a great engine and beautiful like New World!

New world самая недооцененная мморпг

I mean, with a 13k playerbase actives, the game doesn't evem exist

I mean, lets be honest, NW is a dead game. They messed up too many times. The remaining player base is there in golden handcuffs.
