Another one bites the dust

MMORPGs are dying out one by one and without warning. What a sad day for that community.

RIP NW…you had so much potential

That game lost all potential the moment they decided there would be advantages that pvp players had over strictly PvE players. Which is the exact same fate ashes of creation will suffer eventually, though I’m still convinced that is really just a scam

Tried playing NW 3 times. Refunded each time. Game is trash, plays like trash, and is ran by trash.

I agree. It is 100% a scam it’s unfortunate so many have bought into over the years.

That’s a shame. We need more games, not less. Just a matter of time before they all end up pulled I’m sure.

I thought the article was hilarious.

What’s Amazon even doing trying to make MMOs?

I won’t be buying anything from that studio again.

They just rug pulled the entire player base without any warning at all.

They advertised the latest season super hard and got a lot of traction too only to end it immediately.

Friend, that is the way of Live Service.

One day, even WoW will burn out.

It just sucks. I have a couple thousand hours of play time in aternum. The leveling experience was actually really good.

I’ve been through my share of shutdowns and it never is received well at all. But Amazon is a horrible company regardless of how large it is. If you hate them now just wait until they fully automate and put countless people out of work. It’s only a matter of when. I’m assuming the same with this game once the devs can’t deliver on housing.

It’s all downhill from here.

The age of AI and full automation is upon us.

At that point we will need to rethink how we live and how we handle 50%+ unemployment within the next 10 years or so.

PvP MMOs have always been niche. And the games industry is all about making all the money and there is no room for niche games anymore.

Game was dead the moment they tried to force in PvE focused pathing. Game lost focus and became a mess of players wanting competing ideas for the game

I remember picking it up just to play with my friends and then never touching it after like a week of playing. It was garbage anyways.
