How about the endgame?
I stopped playing NW some time ago after Brimstone Sands, sadly because there was nothing to do in the actual endgame besides dungeons. I'm a PVE player so there was no purpose for me to play more.

I get that this new dlc will add some story, mounts, new weapon etc. but what about the endgame, because if there are no activities like world bossed, solo dungeons etc. I don't see a point to get back into the game just to see new area, do some quests, level up new weapon and get bored fast.
Brimstone sands was at least free - I won't spend extra money if there are no longterm goal and endgame content.

NW has actually a solid fundations - nice world, fantastic gathering system and mediocre but ok combat. What it lacks is a purpose to play long term, itemization is bad and boring, there are no benchmarks to have fun when you reach that build you planned, nothing like that.

So how about the endgame?

Wtf are you on? New World has one of the best combat systems only one who has better combat system is BDO, dont tell me you like turn based tab targeting sleeping combat like the combat system in WoW, FFXIV, ESO and so on?

For the End Game its more of the same just now you can get higher level, new gear with new gear score cap, new weapon "Flail" mounts and a new dungeon maybe a new raid aswell, pass on the world boss, dont know about that TBH.
Personally i just returned a week ago and i am having a blast and cant wait for the new expansion to drop :) I have around 1100 hours in the game right now.

Remember New World is more a sandbox mmorpg than a themepark mmorpg.
NW has far from one of the best combat systems. It plays like a late ps2/early ps3 game. Even Tera was better. However, the older MMOs are mostly worse, I can agree.

The combat is very basics and lacking skills and build variety because of that. Action combat is nice compared to static tab target or so, but nevertheless it is too basic.

I'm curious what can one do in this game for 1100:) I put over 200 and had nothing to do:) Maybe you've played PVP?

You can do chest runs ... ;)
There are mut. dungeons and this one instanced raid boss. Thats it.
They don't even say what is going on with the raid boss and the "elite" zones when the dlc drop - do they scale them up or not?

Hehe, I did those chest runs for expertise:) The only fun part was actually the mmo experience, meeting people etc. But overall mechanic was so bad, so mind numbing:)

You can clearly see that this game wasn't meant to be a PVE experience but rather a PVP game. Now they try to change that but it is like taking off the chocalte from the cake, trying to put something else:)

I"m in the same boat as the OP. New World is awesome while leveling up. Got 2 characters now to max level and whenever I look at endgame it just makes me want to quit. The armor in this game is just boring. No big raids to enter. You can skip dungeons and just buy legendary off the auction house.

Definitely this game is not for you pal, time to move on.

There is some lacking at the end for sure, try doing an Alt with a different play style. What I mean by that is put limits on yourself and how you can interact with the game world. It can bring a new sense of challenge to the game.
