Today Amazon Game Studios announced 3 upcoming games including New World, an MMO set in a 17th-century version of history where myth and legend are real. From this brief trailer, which is more or less all the info on the game there is at the moment unfortunately (even less than Sunless Skies!), it seems like they are aiming for a mood not entire dissimilar to that of the Failbetter games, though obviously the gameplay will be totally different. I’m not usually an MMO person but I might check it out if it gets good reviews and the atmosphere seems suitably…weird and the lore seems suitably…un-un-ravellable so as to make playing it more than just an exercise in grinding for loot.
