New World manages to engage players more intensively with each other due to the relatively small game world and the limited server size. On some servers, this has now led to players meeting in cities and simply rolling for money or materials. Several users on reddit report this.
What is the deal with the casinos? As the reddit user Soracaz reports, up to 100 players gather in Windkreis on his server in the evenings to roll with each other (via reddit).
The game is simple:
- You challenge another player in the casino area and state a value that you will bet for this round.
- If the other agrees, then you roll with the emote.
- The player with the higher value wins the prize from the loser.
- For higher sums over 1,000 Talers, it is shown in the trading window beforehand that the money is available.
If someone cheats, they will be excluded from the server very quickly. There are even Excel sheets with cheaters at rolling, which are managed among others by Soracaz.
According to the user, bets of up to 40,000 Talers have already occurred. Generally, the whole casino activity is supposed to be incredibly entertaining and fun.
Is his server the only one where rolling happens? No, because in the comments, other users also report that they gamble, such as the user Az-Anime-Fan.
The user respakt even founded the guild “Gambling Goblins on El Dorado” on his server
On the server of the user Doombeard86, however, bets are made for sausages and he himself has already won 66 sausages and a handful of candies.
Kanonkongenn has already rolled with another company leader over who will win the war for territory.
Casino as “real endgame” while New World experiences an economic crisis
How do reactions to the casinos look? On the reddit of New World, the idea of casinos is received very well. Some see it as the “real endgame” of the MMO. After all, New World generally highlights the social aspects of an MMO again.
Others, however, find it curious that precisely in times of economic crisis in New World, money is being rolled. Because Talers are rather scarce in the endgame and the costs for taxes, rent, and crafting fees are high. Many materials therefore have little value, but Talers have.
Moreover, some players want to bring casinos to their servers now. They could even imagine a real casino feature being integrated into the taverns of the cities.
What do you think about the casinos in the cities of New World? Would you participate in such events or would you be too worried about being scammed?
