New World Aeternum What I Like and What I Don't

[@GodWorksOut]

This is my first MMO. I’m on PlayStation 5 about 5 hours in and I’m really enjoying it

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Nice and welcome to new world! Hope you have a great time with the game.

[@goreds02]

I’ve dabbled with ESO on Xbox but I’m already hooked on this game. I imagine I will be playing this for a long time

[@asurman77]

Came to your channel for the content, stayed for the messages of hope. I think it's so awesome that you do that at the end of each video and I do believe that it helps a lot of guys out there, myself included

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Thanks man, that's why I do it, and appreciate you! And keep on that fight dude. :)

[@SomeGuyFromUtah]

I played through the whole msq up through the original campaign (not brimstone). It is MASSIVELY improved! Not only are there characters whose name i actually remember, it also connects the dots in a way that i used to really wish for. All 4 mob types make sense now with how they became to be why they exist in the world. Especially the ancients... the mobs we fight as the ancients aren't even the ancients themselves... they are left behind humans who had given up everything to defend the actual ancient and now they continue to do the same thing in death... guard the ancients artifacts... and we learn a little of what happened to them too... also the rise of the angry earth expansion makes so much more sense now as well. (I haven't played the expansion myself yet on this version but events in the msq make it much more clear)

[@Mikerich_94]

It’s important when talking about player counts to remember that steam charts doesn’t have console data For the bad I wish text chat went over people’s heads so you knew if someone talking was near you Also needs character appearance editing

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Very true, stream will represent a heat map of the game here in a month or two. Not a true number but a chart of peoples feelings and enjoyment

[@mickdiebold517]

1. They need to do something about storage... I don't want to constantly have to play the storage game of moving this or finding this, because I can only store a specific weight in any place 2. They need to allow me to smelt, refine resources from ANY storage... because of above, don't want to play the storage game 3. Raid/Wurm needs to cater to all players, not just the top 5% of players that can complete it... Different difficulties and matchmaking 4. Would love to see the reagents added to your character sheet, like gold, transmog tokens are... Frustrating to have to manage weight of those 5. Invasions, Wars need to change for everyone to be a part I don't understand why games make it difficult for you to manage QOL issues. I want to enjoy this game more, combat is great, farming/resources gathering and crafting are top notch makes me sad

[@gingerlovesmmos]

I love these ideas about storage and items, it does feel like that would save me lots of time

[@SomeGuyFromUtah]

This doesn't solve everything but a big house with big storage eventually makes it much less of an issue. My original character had over 5k storage at one town so I could keep most of my crafting mats there

[@brsubwayfc]

They are usually made so they can sell you the solutions. Which, okay, now where are they on the shop? St this point I’ll gladly pay for several QoL changes.

[@WickedTruth-qi9zn]

I'm totally in love with NW, absolutely loving the crafting

[@bobbygig4362]

Bro the most innoying thing is not having a wardrobe to change you appearance like wtf I never see an mmo not have this feature I’m tryna change my hair color style and I can’t. You telling me I have to reroll a character for this SMH amazon

[@SomeGuyFromUtah]

There's talk of a barber coming eventually. I think something about it was even datamined at some point... but whether that's 3 months or 2 years out I have no idea. Keep in mind wow took a while to add a barbershop too.

[@gingerlovesmmos]

I think they'll announce that as apart of the roadmap, because the devs have said it's on the way we just don't know when yet.

[@GuruChaz]

Gameplay over all

[@bobbygig4362]

@@gingerlovesmmos also is there white and black dyes in this game I saw some people have their gear dye white but I can’t find the dye in game. If not is there plan to add this from Amazon?

[@MrYalcincavdar]

As a New World streamer, is there any chance you can report these shortcomings directly to a New World developer? Like an interview? For example * Aptitude Level after 65 Level * Boats & Sailing * New OPR map * Revamped Achievement Rewards * New Professions * Diving mechanic for underwater * Collection System * Better Ranked System * Rename Stash Option for Storages * Glider * Mini Games * Revamped Mount & House System * Repeatable Mount Races for Rewards * Rewards for completed Lore Pages * Barber Shop * Day/Night Indicator * Lockpicking Skill * Bard / Dagger or Lightning Staff

Brian I really do appreciate you making these videos. I like the real and honest commentary. Fair and Genuine.

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Thanks a bunch! I try to be a good steward of the content I make!

[@shermanhaney6890]

@gingerlovesmmos the one I just watched. The game content and advice are good. But integrity is truly valuable.

[@shermanhaney6890]

@@gingerlovesmmos Thank you

[@mancheckitout]

Barber shop, paid name change, companion npc, unlimited capacity crafting material bag, craftable steampunk mount, stamp game item book where you can see everything you collected and have not collected, ability to click on player and compare game progress and I really love your ideas as well. 😊

[@GuruChaz]

I love Aeternum! Take your time with the storyline. Quest alongside others.

[@kevinjennings8272]

The old influence system was 24/7 I miss it so much I leveled entirely just interacting with the territory control when I played at original launch

[@DementedMusicEnt]

I just bought the game, I'm subscribing to you

[@Vetteracer13]

6 kids!! Damn brother! Surprised you can make videos at all. Props to you!

[@gingerlovesmmos]

I have a supportive wife, an editor, and I just really enjoy making video that I hope people find some value in :)

I’m in Rosa also and part of The Precursor community!

[@LiterallySomeDude]

Somehow the universe "algorithm" led me to your content, and I'm forever thankful! you got a new sub out of me bro

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Thanks, I really appreciate the support!

[@shermanhaney6890]

I also appreciate the message of hope. Thank you.

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Thank you so much I’m glad so many are enjoying them

[@themainpge7770]

I got 1200+ hours in the original game. I have only ever done 4 dungeons max and don't like them. I also don't do pvp or group with people in general. I like quests and gathering (which i don't sell or anything) just throw in my vault and then throw away or delete when vaults are full). Are there new quests and stuff for folks like me?

[@damnsurfer522]

This is not my primary game, so the season feels a little short for me but if this is your primary game you are probably happy for a faster rotation.

[@xc4liber520]

May just be me but controller input, especially weapon skills, seems delayed compared to MnK

[@VonVisualsOfficial]

One thing that really bothers me the third time around is the amount of times I see reused assets. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said, “Didn’t I do this already” while questing. I still enjoy the game but it feels odd now that I noticed it lol

[@primeusz224]

❤ Love the Content & Vibes Bro. & As a player from New World 1st launched day 1 years ago i must say This is a smooth launch & im enjoying it. I started Over to play with my friends but the changes are so nice I dont mind.❤ 1 Thing id really like is if they would Change the fast travel system into something smooth like Throne & Liberty.

[@gingerlovesmmos]

I agree with you, that would be a nice improvement! 100%

[@W9HJBill]

They should make a PvP server .. like Asheron's Call did back in the late 1990s with the Darktide server.

[@williamatkins3465]

Is it worth coming back on PC if I only have the base game, without RotAE?

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Yes to check out all the updates, you’ll be missing some of the content (raids and zone) but if you like your return you can buy just the expansion $30 and get caught up

[@mediocresumo1]

the world is so packed with people tonight its crazy

[@MrCayuga]

How is it "smooth" when it drops to 30 fps on GeforceNOW Ultimate, which is an RTX 4080?

[@ipodtouchrules133]

Any news on a roadmap coming?

[@gingerlovesmmos]

They said after lauch, so i'm watching and waiting for it.

[@arfaouihamdi]

I don't think a free for all server could work specially with the game mechanic ,but may be a auto pvp flag server could help I think

[@Fletchuk]

Anyone had problems adding friends who play on xbox? Just instantly declines, same with groups. On their screen they say they cant even see anythjng in chat? 😅

[@gingerlovesmmos]

I've heard there was an issue on xbox, and it's ether being worked on, or just got fixed.

[@Fletchuk]

@gingerlovesmmos Ahhh thank you!

[@Fletchuk]

Just in case anyone else has this problem and sees this...I had to log out of a second account also logged onto the xbox. Has to just be the one your playing NWA on.

[@wiichii2620]

I like the combat on new world more then tnl but I really like the bosses and dungeons in tnl Im hype for pvp and bossing in new world

[@blindshooter11]

I'm on non cross play server and the expeditions is a no go, I made a healer and Q up random and made my own lobby and nothing for 4 hours I gave up

[@guillaumebriere3633]

[@charlesbrooks5481]

Love the message bro

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Thanks Charles :)

[@megusta1583]

Instead of a free for all server just do a permanent flag server.

[@gingerlovesmmos]

I would support this as well.

[@megusta1583]

I wonder how it would affect the economy… won’t have as many bots running around hitting nodes with out having the ability to kill them

[@Jubafree]

Is the dungeonfinder cross seever?

[@gingerlovesmmos]

It is, so you match across the different servers in a region, what I hope is we can have the ability to invite friends into our groups that are cross server and then go into content. :)

Can we get a mini map

[@gdottt-wh5bd]

All this stuff sounds fun but for how long? The issue with this game was never the first 500 hours.. it’s after you’ve done the same thing over and over… there’s no real end game

[@matheusgazola764]

Yep. There is no endgame after 500 hours. 😂

[@gdottt-wh5bd]

@@matheusgazola764 oh there is an end game. It consists of playing the same 1 OPR map, or standing around outside windward in full BIS gear duelling other bored players

[@Oncewasgolden]

This game crashes every time I play. Sometimes multiple times. Funny, how I did not experience that when playing the open Beta. Items don’t want to delete and it does not want to check you in at Inns. It won’t recognize that you pressed L1 or R1, PlayStation 5 I am playing on.Last. It not least, this game is pay to win. You can pay for weapon experience and gathering experience. This means you weapon can be stronger earlier and you can craft the best stuff earlier. There are plenty of issues with this game. When the MSQ is done, so am I. I refuse to play a game that makes you pay real money for things that should be in the game and I abhor pay to win.

[@pacepals8217]

My prediction is future areas will be PvP zones. It is basically the only way to make it more interesting from now.

[@raffybm78]

What we don't like players from Asia is we don't have asia server. Since launch of Aeternum...AU Sydney servers only have 1 server high population...its better they shut it down as only Aus and NZ players are playing. Thank goodness for Throne and Liberty

[@Solid912]

I don’t think every video needs your message of hope… I like the sentiment and I appreciate how you view aspects of life etc but going from the title of the video we don’t expect a 1/5 of the video or in some prior videos 1/4 of the video being stuff irrelevant to the topic at hand. In regards to the talking points I feel if they put it in too many ways to contribute to something people will find the easier one to do to avoid the larger situation which will affect the larger contribution methods long term so I think for the health of the game it’s better to lock in certain ways of playing and keep it that way,

[@gingerlovesmmos]

Thanks for the feedback, but I feel it's really important for those who need it, and for those who don't, they can always just exit the video at that time.

[@2ambaby198]

Yes he does it doesn't hurt anyone and more people need to do what he does, games are for your entertainment and to have fun, it was never meant for people to hide their real life problems by playing games

[@PeterPanbe]

New World is somehow suffering from a very toxic community on PC. I understand where it comes from (original launch, mixed "approach"+ this update is nothing like Cyberpunk's re-launch, etc,), but still... why are PC players *so* toxic? The problem is: this "relaunch" caused only a minor of PC players to come back to the game. I have no Idea about Xbox/PS new players but it seems that this re-launch does not receive the credits it should have 😞

[@mtae5]

@@PeterPanbe I want to play it (on pc) I just think $60 is too much.

@@mtae5 If you don't own the base game yet I am afraid it is not worth 60$, so you are right?

@@PeterPanbe I've also had people say it's 100% worth it, but I'm going to try to hold out for a sale.

[@DaChungus69]

@@mtae5 it’s increased from original base games price because the $60 aeternum is the base game + the dlc. So you’re saving a few dollars getting that instead of just base game then dlc. I came back to it and the 5 hours I put into it I actually enjoyed. Plan to put more time into it once off work. Understandable waiting for a sale but in my opinion I’d say it’s worth it
