A few days ago the MMORPG New World released a major update. Now it registers higher player counts. However, some players are reluctant to return.
With the Brimestone Sands update, developer Amazon focused on making New World less monotonous. For example, they made the first 25 levels more interesting and want to adjust the remaining levels later. Although the MMORPG was initially a hit, it has had a rather bad reputation of late.
According to Steamdb, New World on Steam is seeing an increase in player numbers. The 24-hour peak is currently just under 33,000, in the previous weeks there were 8,000 fewer players. At the moment there are even queues when logging in.
However, Amazon was not able to solve all the problems with the update, which is why some players are still unsure whether they want to return to the MMORPG.
Players don’t want to come back despite improvements
There will also be changes within the economy. The developers are gradually repairing the broken economy and making sure that the money in New World is distributed more. So far, the economy has been heavily influenced by bots.

Under a post on reddit it becomes clear that many players would like to return, but see the unbalanced economy as too big a problem. Some see it as a disaster, others call it already repaired. Still others want new servers for a fresh start.
Many players like New World but don’t play it for various reasons. Nevertheless, they wish the game success and praise the new update.
