I hope they learn from New World and skip everything they did wrong there.

I hope they lose it and give it to somebody else that can actually ship a game.. Amazon just buying to buy at this point. They hardly make any good content in general.

Wasnt Lumberyard a decent engine?

I truly hope Amazon has learned from their Rings Of Power flop. It's hard to tell yet, but it could end up being the biggest flop in Hollywood.

It's cryengine rebranded. That engine is definitely not suited for an MMO and trying to make it work is going to be a nightmare. Hell it's not even meant for Open World but Star Citizen is trying... 10 years later.

This game is going to have to be HUGE and massively indepth to do Tolkien justice... and they are going to have to stick to the lore without shoving western socio-political identity idiocy into it.
