Actually NW is not AGS's first game

[eyeball]

For people who didn't know, there was a game called Crucible last year. It was third person shooting game, with super powers and all that. It was similar to Overwatch imo.

What happened to this game? AGS made the game, game came out and it wasn't the best. Going under few fixes, still didn't help, and AGS decided this game isn't going anywhere, they shut it down.

I played the game from the open beta, forgot if it had any official release. I kinda enjoyed it actually, but for real it was not a good game.

Saw so many comments talking about NW being AGS's first game, so I just wanted to share the information, that there was a big failure that is not even on the website anymore.

Even Crucible wasn't their first game

they did a royale game at a time the genre itself was already exhausted, that's what happens when major dev companies all try to milk the same formula. New World is the main unique game from Amazon here, where the majority of the resources went to.

Considering New World is rather trendy they have a good oportunity to stand popular MMOs in both fronts, the mainly PvP New World and the mainly PvE Lost Ark.

So Amazon Games probably has a best scenario than most for this, Lost Ark can easily be next to WoW and Final Fantasy in terms of popularity, hell just the KR version hit over 240k concurrent users a massive popularity for just a country, imagine global. And New World is managed decently can also easily be a mainstream MMO for PvP players.

The only reason you heard about crucible was because of its failure lol

I liked Crucible, but it had basically zero ad campaign, I stumbled upon it y accident. It was nicely made, however the map was a bit wonky. I did like how using the skills felt like, it was pretty and ran well even on my ooooooooooooooooooooooooooold ass rig...

But it did feel empty community wise. Plenty of players, but... it just felt empty. :D I didn't even notice it was gone until way later. (I was moving)

I remember some clown on these forums saying that NW was Amazons first game and when I gave em a laundry list of all their failed projects they had nothing left to say on the thread. That was quite amusing.
