Patrick, Joel, and Tony sit down this week to discuss the in-game economy of New World.
Joel says he looks for feedback in a multitude of places, including the official Discord and Reddit to help gauge the state of the economy in the MMORPG. Feedback and player sentiment are a "big portion of what the team looks at", he says.
There is, of course, lots of data to look at as well, including gold income and item prices. The team showed off some graphs that follow the economy during this episode of New World: Forged in Aeternum.
The team discusses inflation, as well as keeping lower-tier resources and items valuable without them becoming obnoxiously expensive for new players.
It's an interesting episode if you're into the in-game economy. Check out the full episode below.
