this is outrageous

I demand Brogean to sue them, John smedley racking in big cash over @ Amazon studios while leeching Brad's ideas.

Eq1 remains the best MMO of all times and if NW is successful, it's because of Brad (peace be upon him).

mark my words.

Looks kinda cool... I'd much prefer mmo's moving back towards eq playstyle than the wow copy pasta... but by the looks of it that's more of a wow clone... run around questing solo what fun in an mmo!

Those look cool. But they remind me more of a mix between PoF portal + oblivion gates from Elder Scrolls. Either way, I want to check it out.

Don't really see the PoFear connection other than it's a portal

Who cares if it's a copy or not. It's a video game.

Its definityl a copy of Outward, its the exact same game, starts the same, feels the same, almost looks the same, and that is no compliment lol

As if “auto attack on, backstab, pause pause pause, backstab, reposition, pause pause pause” is any better? 😂

I both like, and do not care about new world. Im happy its here, and it feels good, plays well and itches a lot of scratches, and at times looks INCREDIBLY beutiful, and it has some great features, but I also could live without it to be honest, because it doesnt just "grab" me right away with its story and world.

The combat system is one of the most important ellements to an MMO because if its not fun, youre not going to want to keep grinding in it.

The combat system does away with classes and lets you tie your skill with a style of combat with your time using that weapon, and practicing that style of combat.

Want to be a 2h slashing warrior? Use a 2h slasher, get sick of it, put it down, pick up a wizards staff and become a wizard, get tired of that, use daggers and be a rogue. Then go back and forth forever. Until you have a max level shaman sk warrior rogue I guess.

The game itself has a great loop, camping is like binding, when you die you appear at your camp.

the like, creature and mob placement seems a bit like, random to me, not like, eq, where you;re like "this is the vampire castle" "this is the frog cave" "this is the fire maze"

Its, like here is a stone temple, here is another stone temple, here's another one, and the enemies are kind of all the same after a while, so it really needs more content, which is probably why it got pushed back.

We decided that the game was missing environmental storytelling, in the way we'd h oped it would, but it was still early on, hes only level 20.

As if “auto attack on, backstab, pause pause pause, backstab, reposition, pause pause pause” is any better? 😂

haha you got me there, I just prefer tab targeting because it adds so much "utility" intot he fight, adding dots to 1 enemy that you rooted, fearing another, while you melee the 3rd..

Combat in New world IMO is as lacking in depth, as much as it is deep. Its got dark souls style stuff, which makes the dodge, and attacking with different weapons depth, the learning enemy attacks depth, but like outward, limits itself to 3 hot keys, so you're not going to be doing very cool things in combat IMO in combat, with so little variety in the attacks, and stuff, idk I feel like that combat system gets old compared to tab targeting with 50 different spell types and things.

overall I'm excited for the game, but it looks _exactly_ like outward, with not quite the depth in its environment and combat system as EQ or WOW, at least so far.

It also only has like 6 or inventory slots maybe, and I couldn't even figure out how to duel wield (something that you could also not do in outward, WEIRD :p) But with inventory slots like that, it makes me think I wont feel as connected to my character, the inventory icons and items my characters in EQ use are as important to me as their outward facing appearnce, or their stats! (I aint wearing no banded helm on a human caster, and i sure as hell aint gonna have no crown of leaves on it either! :P )

Housing system is cool, crafting, and recorce system is great, all stuff that comes in kickstarter scam games though, so im not too hyped on any of it cus i been through all that already, and also outward has great version of that too.

Chopping down a tree is both comically terrible looking, and SUPER satisfying in this game though, I will def give it that lol

Seems kinda like rift to me. But with portals.

That's an oblivion gate.

Atmosphere changes when you get close.
Enemies spawn around it.
Big menacing portal.

In all seriousness, isn't John Smedley involved with this mmo?

Hard to believe he wouldn't have some connection in his own head.

I was thinking this too when I watched it...more than the fear portal.

idk i think the placement of the npc there, it could be a direct homage, I wouldn't be suprised if any or all new world devs, played eq at least once, and prob love it haha

I think its cool!

True that, it's literally the same old shit. I clicked on that video and watched it for five seconds and I identified a hundred things I've already seen and then the "gate" came into view and I was like look it's the MENACING GLOWING GATE that I've seen over and over. It's the standard MGG from a dozen other games where I had to either step through or fight stuff coming out of.

My gate would look like a baby's crib. And there would be a smiling golden angel lying there with it's arms outstretched for a hug. And then BAM! straight to hell or something.

Surprisingly fun. Probably won't have the longevity you want from an MMO but for $40 I think you'd get a month or two of fun from it. Still a lot they can do with it too.

And the game is just gorgeous. It's really fun to just explore and look at places. Look at how badass I look (https://i.imgur.com/pBM6l7f.jpg).

It was free to play the preview but today is the last day. I highly recommend trying to get into the November preview if you haven't tried the game yet.

Followed immediately by a thread here decrying this obvious copy of Plane of Mischief.
