My problem with cubeworld **BETA** so far...

[craig underscore hastag one]

KEEP IN MIND! This is only the Beta, a lot will change. Keep your hopes up and keep supporting and things can turn out better. This thread is only about the problem with cubeworld as it is in its current state.

Its simply way too restricting.
The game is just too restricting. You have to go find items to level up you cant farm enemies. To access a village, one of the first things I would ever go to on the alpha, you now need to complete a quest to unpetrify it? I don't know if this is the case with all the villages though.

You have to walk for so long to find a village and they dont even pop up on my map for some reason, so If I were to play with a friend it would take absolutely ages just to get to them.

Back to the point of it being restricting. I cant even harm enemies that are too high level for me. This leaves me running around looking for the lowest possible enemies to take on and it makes it feel like all there is to the game is running around and then taking on the occasional cow or two. I also have no way to track my progress. I'd like some sort of exp system so I can actually track progress or some sort of skill tree so I know whats coming next and what to work for.

otherwise this game just feels like im aimlessly wandering around and its absurdly boring for cubeworld.

What I liked about the alpha was for the most part there were fairly easy enemies all over the map. Once i got better and leveled up I wanted to fight harder enemies, so I went searching for them and took on dungeons. In this it feels like the opposite. It'd be really fun if I could actually stand a chance against an enemy right off and not have to search around for something to do. On the alpha the moment you got in you had something to do. there were easy enough enemies all around you and the cities were nearby so you could go and by some kit to get yourself started off. I think the rare items need to be more grindy to get and the enemies need to be easier to fight. The harder enemies should be in a way hidden away from the average player so they dont have to put up with them so much.

As much as it pains me to say it but with the state the game is in now id honestly enjoy it more to just go back to the alpha and play that.
In the alpha I felt like I could do whatever I wanted. I could take on op enemies at my own risk and I wouldnt be just walking around doing literally nothing the entire time. I love the quests sure. But theyre all so hard to get to. I have to walk for AGES to get to a quest so its completely discouraging to walk all the way over to the next quest.

Overall, as it is at the moment the game is too uneventful and boring for the starting off noob like myself. Its just been walking for the past hour, finally making it to something cool then realising I literally cannot do anything there and have no clue how I can make it so I can do something there. Its too confusing and too slow paced to be remotely fun anymore.

I have a lot of faith in this game and extremely high hopes. I havent been waiting so long for nothing and I believe this can be fixed.
Just please listen to me. This game NEEDS to be a little faster paced and a little easier for the noob level player.

I understand this is the beta, I'm talking about this as if the full game was released in its current state.

I agree. I was so excited for this, and it's not at all what I remember or had hoped for. I hope things improve in the coming days/weeks and this is just a restriction until the 30th or something.. who knows.

[Carara]

Agreed on that, Alpha is better and i hate to say but 6 years are more or less wasted, all the fun that made Cubeworld to what it was is just gone... a no no from me

[huh]

i agree. i really hope things change before the full release. game is extremely boring right now. gave it 2 hours of running around aimlessly dying to every enemy i see

[[Wahr] Eogard]

I feel bad for people who will buy the game in a week

[beeda2004]

i more like this version, leveling was useless in alpha only for unlocking higher power for better gear, if you want town find it its not hard if is one locked find different one, if you have problem with enemies find easier ones

mate none of us are being impatient, we are just worried that our beloved cubeworld wont be fixed before its proper release

Because if it isnt, it doesnt only mean waiting longer for a complete game.
If a game gets a bad launch. it can ruin the entire future of the game

[Lunatic_Gato]

i cant even launch it...but just by reading the comments and watching streamer reaktions...its probably for the better -.- Hope it will be what it was .

Hello there,
please don't make early assumptions as there are no guides out yet.

So we have to wait for guides? Ohhh ok............

[Kuta]

Well, sometimes I don't know how things can go wrong like this - all they had to do in the last 6 years was to take the alpha build, add random quest generation, maybe extend the content of the world a bit and iron out bug. That's it.

They had a solid base game which people enjoyed. I really hope they don't release the game in the next week and instead decide to change things, otherwise this game will be dead...again...

[aflawless]

So a guide is gonna fix all the negatives about the game? Like killing monsters is pointless now? Or that you lose items when you switch areas? Or how you have no real choice about character progression?

Ok I will wait for them. Thank you!!

The game as it is at the moment is unfriendly and confusional and frustrating too as there are absolutely no points of interest or icons on the map or even a zone where to start.

You spawn in the middle of nowhere whithout any clue of what to do....
