Players slam New World's recent changes via Steam reviews
Amazon’s MMO, New World, has seen its aggregate user reviews on Steam fall from “mostly positive” to “mixed” in the last 30 days.
As spotted by TheGamer, feedback seems mostly to criticise the game’s “grind” and its litany of bugs and issues.

“It saddens me to have to write a negative review,” wrote one player. “The game has a great foundation but is pretty much completely screwed over by bad decisions from higher-ups.”
“Incompetent and ignorant dev teams that resulted in a game so spaghetti-coded dupes and exploits became a feature as well as various bugs and gameplay issues so broke it makes my bank account look like a tea party,” added another, while one simply said: “Trash, can’t believe I wasted so much time on this”. The unhappy player have over 200 hours recorded in-game.
