Despite some lingering issues from the beta and early access phases,New Worldis currently one of the most played games on Steam, and the population is still very healthy even if it is currently sitting at half the peak. This makes the concurrent active player numbers onNew Worldnot too dissimilar from those ofWorld of Warcrafton a daily basis, albeit on the lower side. With all those players active at a time, servers and their population are also likely to be filled with all sorts of gamers, ranging from hardcorePvP fans enjoying the warsto PvE enthusiasts who love expeditions.
New Worldis often addressed as a great game for crafters because of all the various crafting disciplines that it features, and making items can also be a very worthwhile use of one’s time to max out the gear. Crafting is also very easy to access, as it requires a bunch of materials that are found in the wilds, and then crafting benches and stations to actually make the items. Gathering supplies also helps to level some of the disciplines, like Tracking and Skinning or evenFishing.

Ranking up the Trade Skills also helps to level up one’s character, making it a pretty effective route to go when conflicts and killing are a tad too much. That’s what aNew Worldplayer has done for the entire time they have played the game, so much so that they reached level 60 without ever killing a single enemy, not even throughout the tutorial area. The player shared their results on Reddit under the name of Iiventilde, with a few screenshots of their current skill levels, which show 1 in all Weapon Masteries.
This acts as proof of them never killing anyone or anything withinNew World, which is quite an achievement, considering that it is one of the core aspects of the game. On the other hand,New Worldencourages gamers to play as they please, delving into whatever facet they enjoy about the MMO. Not having at least reached rank 2 inSword and Shieldmade some players suspicious, but others chimed in to say that it’s entirely possible to skip the tutorial area, where those ranks would have come from.
With Gathering skills being so valuable, it doesn’t come as a surprise that aNew Worldplayer taught their six-year-old to fish for them, so as to get the most out of the experience. Though some players who commented under Iiventilde’s post said that fishing is technically killing fish, the point still stands about players being able to get to level 60 however they please.
