I was never the one to complain on the games state, or the bugs (Rarely had them, and the few i had were pretty funny). I loved this game, i love how its classless and you can choose to switch "class" whenever. The gathering and crafting were nice and rewarding.
I used to call this my main game for the longest while (Hence the hours), but lately with the lack of content and the toxic community and "dead" servers i can't really bring myself to grind anymore. I say dead servers but 500 peak players on a server isn't enough to have a stable and flourishing economy, TP is missing the most basic things, prices are inflated because there's a lack of material gatherers etc.

I was an elite PvE M3 dungeon enjoyer (Previously also called M10), but recently they removed being able to get gold from that type of content which is many players main source of income, including me. The gear you would have sold for money now is either bound to you (90% bind on pickup on gearscore 695 and above) or it drops a piece but it doesn't cost anything because there's similar maxed gearscore (700) items on the TP.

The introduction of Chromatic Seal was great for crafting named gear you actually wanted (3 seals per named item, 1 for artifacts), but it also introduced a huge moneysink which is also time gated, one per day.
One seal per day costs 20k faction tokens and 5k gold, if you buy a seal every single day for a week that's quickly running away to 35k gold and 140k faction tokens which is quite a lot of gold and a TON of tokens you have to farm for. This also means you have to wait 3 days and pay 15k to craft a named item you want.
Also, the game is extremely boring if you have no friends left at endgame to play with.

I will leave it at that, there's other reviews that cover more issues already. I had my fun with it, but save yourself money and time. Don't get New World.
