In the week of November 22 to 28, Mortal Online 2 was released on Steam. Additionally, we have written several news articles about WoW, New World, and other MMORPGs. We have gathered them in this weekly review for you.
What was the highlight of the week?
- A new MMORPG, Mortal Online 2, has been released in Early Access on Steam. It targets fans of PvP and hardcore content.
- It has received 73% positive reviews on Steam so far.
- MeinMMO editor Alexander Leitsch has already played it for you: I have been playing MMORPGs for 15 years: I have died more often in none than in Mortal Online 2.
The controversy of the week: In New World, there was a rollback because some players received too much gold. After the rollback, another problem occurred since some players are now missing items they are supposed to get back later.
The discussion of the week: Is New World still salvageable? We at MeinMMO are looking back at the first two months in the latest podcast and discussing what the game absolutely needs in the future:
