From PC Gamer: "The first thing I did in Amazon's New World was see if I could make fun of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos with my username, because of course that's what I did, but Amazon was one step ahead of me. New World doesn't allow the use of "Bezos" or "Amazon" in your player name. I had my heart set exploring the world as "Jeff Bezos' Wallet." Now what am I supposed to do?
After confirming that variants of Bezos like "JeffB," "Bez0s," and "Be Zos" were also locked out, I tried just going by "Amazon." That word's not allowed either. These names are clearly not locked because other players have already claimed them. When a name is already taken, it says, "This name is in use." Names which include the words Amazon and Bezos, however, "cannot be used," which is also what New World says when you type in swear words."
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.

How about MacKenzie? Can I add 4% on this?
...why is this even an article? slow news day?
I wonder if this was the devs decision or if it came from the top.
Either way it really telling when you censor your own game.
Cowards!
What about Jeff Bozo :D
