“repetitive content with same missions and locations” (4)

O começo do jogo foi um pouco bagunçado, mas hoje em dia tá em outro nível. Tem muita coisa pra fazer, tem conteúdo PVE / PVP, guerras, guildas, facções, housing e por aí vai... fora o combate que é simplesmente único — nenhum outro MMO faz você sentir tanto o peso das armas e o impacto das lutas como o NW. Tá chegando expansão grátis dia 13 de outubro com várias mudanças: mapa novo, mudança nas armas e qualidade de vida pro game, então vale muito a pena pegar em 2025. Obs: se você comprar o New World: Aeternum ele já vem completão, não precisa da DLC. A DLC só vale pra quem comprou o game lá
