Depends what you mean by "the same". They've made quite a lot of changes to it and removed almost all of the stagger, stunlock and made ranged/magic users much more mobile.

Dungeons, 20vs20 Battleground etc blabla The fact that none of that was in the game a year ago should say everything about the repeated delays 😜

May 25 is the Steam store date I think, but at this point I'm not trusting any of their dates

Exclusive preview of a new high level zone with new, more fun quests, new mobs, Spear gameplay, and fishing! New World Reekwater & Fishing

If you can't figure that out yourself then you're still too young to do it.

These cards have me very excited but I can't justify throwing out my 2080 RTX especially cause I still get excellent performance in any game I play on Ultra even while streaming.

Yeah we have about a dozen people playing right now I think? It's pretty fun, had a few nice smaller PvP fights today, otherwise everyone is just busy leveling.

Well, yeah, I tolerated those same issues for the that same game concept 20 years ago in Shadowbane. But those were different times and I've been spoiled by other games since then. Hell I can't even tolerate ESO's floaty combat and that is miles ahead of Crowfall at this point. Skills don't connect, characters are perma-floating, and my i7-8700K, 2080 RTX should not have sub 20 FPS in group fights.

It is pretty awful. The concept is great, but the combat is just so bad, the animations make it even worse, and the performance is abysmal. Development is also just too slow, so I don't know how they'll ever get this into a viable state that caters to more than just a super niche type of PvPer who happens to tolerate unpolished combat/animations and abysmal performance.

The escort section is on another website I worked on in the past which I won't link here. Gambling I have yet to try.

Yeah it is, but a lot of it was already shown working or semi-working in the gameplay video. They just kept showing more stuff. I get a Star Citizen vibe but maybe the difference is they started out with this massive scope while SC kept adding stuff to the scope over time.

Yeah it's like L2 + Archeage + BDO, at least the first 2 is what the CEO used to love and took a lot of ideas from

There was footage of an Alpha event recently and a bunch of interviews with the creative director / CEO that really turned my impression of this game around. Check this one:

@Qwazin I'm still playing sometimes and now that New World is delayed I'll probably be playing it a bit more. I just started a new character last week doing an Ironman challenge though trying to be completely self-sufficient, but when the new content comes out I'll likely be on my previous main again.
