Future of Neverwinter

in General Discussion (PC)
I want to start a somewhat serious discussion on the future of Neverwinter, with the aim of making this game better.

I use the hypothesis that the playerbase is unhappy and leaving. A not exhaustive list with a few hot topics found in the forums
- Strongholds being unfriendly to small guilds (the ever hungry mimic)
- Foundry Editor not working for weeks (foundry writer cut off)
- Dungeons missing for month (rest in peace Karrundax)
- No AD for Leadership in the near future (announced changes)

Now you are Jack Emmert, CEO of a company that is offering an online game called “Neverwinter”, and it is your job to entice new players to join the game while at the same time keeping the existing playerbase happy.

What would you do?

    Not all players are unhappy.​​

    Also, I heard they launched NWO, it lost lots of players, too, GG PWE and Cryptic.

    I would only do 1 thing - reduce all in-game fixed AD prices.

    AH/Barter economy is all relative, it will survive. Purchasing things like companion upgrades, GMOPs, strongholds, etc. is prohibitive.

    If I was Jack I'd direct the remaining (reduced) team to squeeze as much money out of the fading game as possible and gee up the progress of the new game that they are allegedly working on.

    I am closing this on the grounds that it is flame bait and going to lead to dev bashing. Sorry.
    My opinions are my own. I do not work for PWE or Cryptic. - Forum Rules - Protector's Enclave Discord - I play on Xbox
