Amazon’s upcoming stab at game development just hit a snag. New World has been delayed until 2021.
New World, the PvP-focused MMO from Amazon Games, is being review bombed on Steam over a recently-announced major relaunch.
If they were gonna get into game development. They should've started with single player games imo
An ad for New World, has surfaced on the PlayStation Network, and this falls in line with the studio teasing an announcement at SGF.
I liked MMO’s on PC back in the day but I do prefer console these days. I may check this out
Better controls (I hate keyboard heavy games) and no need for chat communication. So, mostly a preference of how I want to enjoy my online games. I don't want to be typing or clicking buttons. Just holding a controller, chatting when I want (but hearing others when needed in raids even if I'm not). It also tends to be a much better UI. Lot less clutter without the unnecessary hot bars and chat UI and whatnot. Most PC-focused MMOs have a lot of button pressing for abilities that doesn't make it more fun, just more tedious I find.
New World breathes new life into the game on its second anniversary. On October 3rd, 2023, New World will launch its first expansion, Rise of the Angry Earth.
Not surprising.
The game isn't ready yet.
Amazon really should have made this a single player game for their first footstep in the gaming world. This looks like a cool game but it's an MMO and I don't like to play those. An mmo is a big undertaking for a first game in their history.
