Is Neverwinter worth Playing in 2025?

was in endgame gear and then they changed the rules so you spend more money, bringing enchantment to 14
now they reset everything : pay stupid player, pay !
in guild war 2, the berserker set is a good option since the start of the game
foundry in neverw was pretty cool

Scaling is what made me quit permanently. Any MMORPG with scaling is a big NO. The entire point is to get stronger. Lol

I remember I used to play it waaaaay before, when it was possible to use more than a single companion's effect at once, aka the Archon Trio-
But then they made them obsolete, we had to level up characters again, enchantments, introduction of a new Mount Rarity, more leveling up characters-

I miss the OG game ngl, It was a fun experience while it lasted, especially on Ravenloft

This was a dope ass vid bro 🙏 appreciate it fr

I play becoz i like the combat n community. Im a casual player, playing with friends for releasing tension after work for 1 or few hours.. Hv been quiting few times but still return coz others just lack something even though better graphics.

Short answer - no!

Such an amazing game at its prime
I wish they remake it or bring it to unreal engine

Tyranny of dragons was when I dropped off. We'll, here I am, on the fence thinking should I get back Into it or not?

This isnt even a list of game this is just the explanation for neverwinter

I've been playing throne and liberty and new world aeternum I kinda wanna go back to neverwinter.

Or just play ddo with is a far better game

Is this games dead

Mod 16 killed the game for me

Server not responding

No It is not. Avoid It. It is a trap.

game went downhill class wise after mod 16

Amazing game

Should you stop playing neverwinter the answer is yes!

this game is now complete garbage they took my stronghold gutted out so much content open areas to explore so many monsters gone all my gear has been lost no more sandbox exploration this is now just linear garbage ..

A DD that does less damage as a Tank does something wrong. A Tank should TANK damage, not DEAL it. All those things mentioned are good in my opinion. Classic roles as they should be.

Hello Hello, I used to play this game, I stopped playing after module 13, then the game started to get worse, the game started to repeat itself constantly, and this was very annoying, I liked to do PVP the most, they broke it very much, which made me very sad, so while the game deserves to be better and better, the game is in a very bad situation right now, according to steam data, the game is played by 700 800 people daily, so the game is in very bad places I hope. If they fix the game, we are thinking of returning to the game with my friend because we have played without a break since the beta until module 13, so I miss the old Never winter very much, I hope the authorities will listen to what the players say and make the game more beautiful, then I am sure that many players will return to the game again because a game like neverwinter has not been made yet and will not be made, we miss the game very much, we love it very much, I hope one day it will be fixed and we will play again.

This is wrong from a stand point of a mmorpg veteran someone who has played them all or most of them bless, bless unleashed, ff14. eso, archeage and Riders of Icarus ,throne and liberty, new world, wow, tera, lord of the rings online, wild star, guild wars 2, games that are semi MMOs like tower of fantasy and Diablo 1,2,3,4, no man sky ,well to put it in short I have played lots of these type of games so much so if I was to list all the games I have ever played it would take to long. so when I put that vast web of knowledge about mmorpg's to the test with neverwinter I get combat at a 3 for action combat system played way better in black desert witch is at a 10 out of 10, gets a 5 if not a 4 on graphics compared to new world or black desert out of 10, story gets a 10 out of 10 from final fantasy 14, the world is way worse in openness from a wow point of view like a 2 on a scale of 1 to 10 being the highest, the controller support is a 3 verses final fantasy 14 witch is at a 10 the only real thing this game has going for it is the story and the fact that its free to play and they cut back on the pay to win more or less because they had to. because there is so much wrong with this game its hard to draw in new players compared to the other options. now for my overall rating 4.5 out of 10. This is one of the best examples of wasted potential I have ever seen this game needs a reboot go with unreal engine 5 have action combat like black desert, keep the same story and lore, go buy to play like guild wars 2, have and open world layout like wow know loading screens, have events like guild wars 2 with quest starting in a town and going out into the world but don't over do it one per zone is fine, graphics go with something stylized just a sharper version of the same graphics they have today would do the job more than likely for life. have cross-platform play with really good controller support like elder scrolls online then this game could be as good maybe better than final fantasy 14 or world of warcraft what they needed to do after this game launched as save the money for a reboot like that but what they did was spend it used the game like a cash cow now they don't have the money to invest into these changes to keep neverwinter as a good source of income for years to come so ultimately this game will fade away to nothing wasting all the money they could have made and all the enjoyment new players could have had. if you like storys and that is the only thing you care about then yes this is the game for you for mostly everyone else its a dud.

Looks like i wasted a lot of time in this game back in my Ps4 time

It's the most predatory game ever.

Games like this should banned, and those that pushed the predatory microtransations should be imprisoned.

An abhorrent game.

Don’t play

the game is dogshit.

Main point to anyone looking at this game. If you can't spend 1k real world money, then don't play this game. Gearbox can't pull their head out of their butt. They need to stay with making boarderlands and drop this game. It is a sink hole that is worthless

Been playing for 3 years and love it. And been with the same Alliance since then. I did quit on and off, and pissed they ruined the winter festival. But after completing the Mod 30 secret quest, I feel alot of good things are about to happen. I also ignore the idiots in zone chats. Never did have a bad experience with other players. It was those end game ones that hooked me up when I joined.

pay to win for ilevel that does not mean shit, sounds like a good game xD

How tf is this game still alive, the greed and overall game changes made me quit but make do i miss playing my rogue from launch.

If you're so upset because you can't solo a dungeon why not just play a game that's only meant for one player? Aren't things like dungeons meant to be played in groups? I'm a very casual gamer, not going to come anywhere near to reaching any kind of end. I'm just looking for a cheap, fun, easier, fantasy mmorpg to play with my friend. I was definitely more interested in Elder Scrolls but the PS Plus sub is now up to $160 from $60 per year maybe five years ago. Insane.

I quitted the game around last year. I go by the name Ivanus Song. It is not the game is not good. The toxic players made me demotivated with their uncooperative and selfish strategy to aim highest DPS scoreboards. After few failures of the game, they started the blaming game targeting the lowest DPS score players but in facts they were the selfish DPS to get highest damages on the scoreboard instead of following mechanics. I did create to learn on how to be a healer and tanker. I managed to get my tanking skills up to MTOS advanced mode and my healer was not ready due to different learning curves as a DPS player to learn healing and tanking.

I agree one thing:
1. No healer and tanking, waited for long hours to host a game.
2. Elitism in Neverwinter, no reputable groups and guilds you will not survive and even discriminated.
3. "Ignore" feature abuse over small matters. Literally, placing capable players on ignore list that it makes difficult to find players.
4. Neverwinter is a rich game. You do not pay to hasten your builds. You cannot keep up and be the top player or even invited in the game without the same set of items.
5. Copy and paste. Must follow the same set and playstyle in order to win. No variations in builds and gameplay.
6. Different time-zones to get active players. It is very difficult for me to stay almost late-night without any sleeps to complete the game.
7. So many bugs!!!!!!!
8. Too demanding in mechanics. NOT all people like to be stressful to play the game. Try to make it moderate. Not too hard or too easy to complete the game!
9. Many of them are quite rude and due to culture differences. We might get into conflicts due to misunderstanding. For example, we remind our friends to rest early and take care of the health for going to sleep early is a caring gesture from Asian players. However, if you remind your Western friend to rest early and stop playing, they will think you are extremely rude by meddling into their affairs as they are adults already.
10. Some even keep trolling and spamming on PE about politics and childish arguments but with no strict actions against them. Keep spamming nonsense on PE. Unlike Wicked, the only past player was only helpful on PE without any nonsense!

I felt much less stressful after quitting Neverwinter and with the money 'donated' last time to Neverwinter, I can purchase even more other AAA games such as Elden Rings, Wukong, Hogwarts etc.

No thanks, ask the players who put 9k+ hours into the game at launch on console and was top PVP/PVE. The game is over after barovia ban ❗️

They destroyed my all time favorite game. I would still be playing if it wasn’t for them taking our power creep

Im afraid to play mmo because thya won’t last forever and most likely will shut down in a few years

Mod 16 Ruined a Great Game!

wait how are u playing with skill cross hotbar like ffxiv?

Games that add level scaling are the worst. No power fantasy, just enjoy the grind.

I never played mmos but i tried guild wars 2 and something like dragon age. Is neverwinter worth it?

Lower Item Level toons outperform higher IL players due to scaling in dungeon as well.
The biggest problem with game is the Item Level for Public Queues are way too low and so many do NOT know mecahnics making fails very common!

I have alway thought. The group dungeons should be scaled up to your level not the other way around. This way the rewards could match your teams level. Extra reward should also be given on how you did as a team, to encourage team play not individual damage.

Dude the difference between a 40k dps and a 80k dps is insane, that may be the craziest take I heard throughout the video

I first played this game before the first expansion and i left shortly after a few expansions passed icewindale after they added the dinosaurs, when they changed the combat system and class system, and the refinement system, eveything they did went p2w and for a more basic game experience

Since the Barovia incident were mass banning happened, we asked the admin to give us a leway to play back but they refused so I quit this game and I never regret quitting this game cause I enjoyed more of Diablo Immortal, I wish this game would last goodluck players of neverwinter.

It’s still worth playing, just don’t sink any money into it. If I could delete all of my characters and progress to get my money back I would, then I’d restart, wouldn’t take me too long to get back to where I am now.

Can you play solo?

Does the game have crossplay between pc and xbox?

So in a nutshell, your biggest complain is that you don't want roles in a MMORPG, where the RP stands for role-play?
Also saying item level doesn't matter anymore means you don't actually play the game, the difference between a 70k and a 90k item level player can be 10 times as big, even in scaled down content.

As an old player that played until mod 16, I disagree with the end thoughts. Mod 14 was peak Neverwinter, mod 15 was a decline.
