r/MMORPG on Reddit: My experience so far with “New World: aeternum”.
November 9, 2024 -

Hey everyone. I had to share my thoughts with you, Gotta say I’m a casual player, only lvl 50, so I might miss more issues and the game might not be for everyone but It’s honestly been years since a game has hooked me like this. Life’s pretty packed these days – baby, work, college – so I wasn’t expecting to dive so deep into something like this. But man, New World has me totally hooked.

The world of Aeternum is unreal. It’s like this massive, living, breathing place that you actually want to get lost in. The environments are insane, from lush forests to spooky ruins, and it feels like there’s always something cool around the corner. I can’t help but think about my next session – which is saying a lot with everything else going on in my life! The crafting is amazing, fishing got me busy after a long day at work, which is something I never thought would be possible lol.

One thing I love is the combat. It’s not just button-mashing; there’s actual skill involved. You have to strategize, time your moves, and think through each encounter. Whether I’m fighting monsters or clashing with other players, it never gets old. And the community? So good. I’ve met some awesome people, and it adds this whole social aspect that makes it even more fun. You’re not just gaming – you’re part of this huge world where everyone’s on their own adventure. The fact that I can try out any weapon, max lvl it and see if I enjoy it, this is refreshing.

Now, I’ll be real – New World isn’t perfect. AGS still has some issues to work out. There are bugs, some balancing problems, and little glitches that need fixing. They’re working on it, but it’s one of those things where you’re hoping the developers stay on top of it. Even with all that, though, it’s worth playing.

If you’ve been curious about it or need something new to dive into, you have to try New World: Aeternum. You might just get as hooked as I am.

My experience so far with “New World: aeternum”.
New World is probably the best ‘I just got the game’ type games I have played. Destiny and division was right up there too. You definitely get your moneys worth at your first purchase. Whether or not you stick around is entirely on you because so far AGS haven’t seemed to care to much about getting players to stick around. More on reddit.com

Reviews for New World Aeturnum on Xbox, PS5, and Steam
New World is awesome, all Amazon need to do now is deliver on a roadmap and content. I had 1.3k hours before Aeternum and loved it before but I’m so thrilled it’s had a last life line given to the game. More on reddit.com

Any Interest in New World: Aeternum??
I played it at launch on pc and I thought it was great. I’m not big into mmos closest thing I’ve played would be destiny 2 or diablo 4 (so not really close at all) but the combat, crafting system, and rpg mechanics are really solid and this is actually a great game that you could totally play solo and still have a good time. My pc is pretty old so even when the game launched I was always hoping for a console version so I could get back into it and I’m glad to see this coming to PS5. More on reddit.com

New World Aeternum - Should You Play it? Is it Worth It in 2024?
So that wraps up our article on New World Aeternum. I hope you guys enjoyed this article again. Big shout out to Amazon Games for sponsoring this article. If you guys are going to pick up the game, our wiki could be helpful for you. I know there are some console players out there who are probably itching to play this. I will probably be playing on PS5 at the launch of the game just because I had so much fun during the beta.

However, as time went on, the plethora of game-breaking bugs throughout New World, along with a lack of content especially in the endgame led to a decline in player numbers. Now, in 2024, New World is seeing something of a re-launch with its Aeternum release, which also brings the game to PS5 and ... New World: Aeternum has made some great changes in time for its console release, and while the endgame might not have too much to offer yet, the leveling process is plenty of fun, especially if you go deep into the crafting system.

It’s crammed to the brim - overflowing even - with content, works quite well with a gamepad, has serviceable and often impressive graphics, and full crossplay between PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S so you can team with your friends regardless of where they play. But, it’s not without its limits and issues, and it’s for these reasons that New World: Aeternum could do with a bit more refinement and adjustments to ensure it nails the task at hand of being an exhaustive and unimpaired console MMORPG effort.

October 29, 2024 - That remains true in New World: Aeternum, which adds some new weapons and gear into the mix. I love being able to allocate points toward using whatever cool weapon I just unlocked, with the freedom to respec (for free until level 60) if I change my mind without major consequences.
