No one knows. The alpha was a solid base to build up on, yet Wollay decided to pretty much trash it in favor of objectively worse mechanics for the beta and then vanished when faced with the backlash.

>you bought the games early access before that was really a thing because of Yea Forums
God damnit you guys

>guy tries to make a game
>he shows the work he has done
>autists bully him into selling it
>its shit
that's the full story

you missed a couple signifigant timeline events
>guy tries to make a game
>he shows the work he has done
>autists bully him into selling it
>its good
>6 years pass with no updates
>he releases a new version
>its shit

That does not explain the fuckery that took place in the transition from the alpha to the beta.

Idk but OP made me check the steam forums for CW and I saw someone link a game called veloren.
veloren.net/
Looks like it's trying to be what cube world shouldve been

At least we still have Hytale... right?

Him completely changing the game from equipment and levels for no reason is what killed the game, imagine spending hours leveling up and getting cool gear just for it to be fucking useless if you go to a new zone.

>has more than one person working on it
Already better than cube world, hopefully they don’t fuck it up

If any person has played the Alpha, they are bound by the TOS.
The TOS clearly states the game can change at any given moment by any degree.
Logically, that means that if it does change, you are not allowed to complain about the change.
You are only allowed to report bugs, that's it.

A game's development does not revolve around you.
A game is not developed for you.
A game is not made to your specifications.
A game does not have to pander to you.
A game developer does not owe you any attention.

This will be my only and last reply.
Logic and Reason Rule over you, you are not allowed to disagree.

Never buy from autistic people

It's open source so modding is basically open for the public and you can contribute too.

>This will be my only and last reply.
good

>actually the non legally binding ToS says he can be a retard so you can't make fun of him for it and I will defend him on this principle alone
For real?

I’m way too lazy for that but I will keep my eye on it.

>Logically, that means that if it does change, you are not allowed to complain about the change.
lol what

I still don't get why even the most basic of mobs can kill you so quick

if the TOS said I could have sex with your mother you would be okay with that?

>autist makes basic but fun cube game
>people like it and ask for more
>dude is slow as shit and gets DDosd
>sends him into an autistic panic spiral
>takes years to get any real updates
>claims he’s a perfectionist
>when it finally releases it’s fucking dogshit because he changed a bunch of key mechanics for no reason and never had anyone give him feedback because he’s a dumbass
>people shit on the game and he goes into another spiral, ending with him deleting all his social media and running away

TLDR: one man tried to make a game, fucked it up, and ran away

chumps fell for this

can we bully him into making the game good again?

I remember failing a summer course in high school because I spent a week playing the alpha instead of doing my homework.

Worst dev of all time
But even worse are his dicksucking fans who STILL TO THIS DAY believe he’s coming back
What a bunch of fucking retards

Alpha - 20 hour game
Beta - 2 hour game

I want Cubeworld with instrument opening dungeon doors and shit but you can make a base like Minecraft or take over a dungeon like Overlord.

I thought the alpha was pretty damn interesting, shame the dev became a retard

German autism, nothing new.

confirmed newfag, you weren't there for alpha

He ran away from the internet because the ddos attacks traumatized him.

Iirc, a big theory was he played BOTW and tried to make CW more like it. Hence why the game suddenly got a surge of updates and activity around the time of BOTW’s release.

The beta was so hilariously bad. Like how do you fuck that up.

The alpha and the final game - with six years of a blackout between them, are almost completely different with very similar assets being the only constant and what was new became especially questionable. It's a case of German autism working in the wrong fucking direction, you can read more about it here.

>buy product from company
>it stops working
>some literal midwit tells you you can't complain because things are subject to change
>you're not even demanding a refund or anything just saying it's weird/bad

he might as well tell you to go make your own cubeworld at this point

being german
i wish it didn't suck but for some ungodly reason he thought the entire game needed to be remade from the ground up when the alpha was already really good and just needed some rng quests and an okay main quest line + some rebalancing to make classes that aren't water mages playable

>could have had this type of combat
>alpha was still fine as it was
>game had plenty of followers and a growing presence online
>dev starts shitting the bed on updates
>fame goes to his head
>beta shat on everything including inventory that disappeared when entering a new biome
>dev does his disappearing trick one last time
I have a feeling he feels just as bad as his fans do when it came to the game’s eventual disappointment. But he got pie for it so fuck him.

fuck cube world all my homies love trove

paid*

>2018 december
>Hytale trailer released and gets tens of millions of views
>jan 2019
>Wollay announces Cube World is coming to steam soon after not posting on twitter for several years (iirc Hytale trailer was at around 40 million views at this point).
>Also that bullshit about a single dll file for audio that didn't work on windows 7 and Wollays response was to update to windows 10 instead of recompiling a dll that worked on 7 (which the community did).
The line between Wollay and actual scam artists is incredibly thin

Dev was retarded. That's all.

Why is Wollay such a fag?

The dev was not prepared for the possibility that his hobby project blew up in popularity and was too inexperienced, german and autistic to ask for advice, feedback and for people to test his game.
It is a shame how this game ended up, but I doubt I (and most other people) would have handled it much better

>This will be my only and last reply.
I almost would think that you are wollay himself the way you flee and try to escape criticism
>Logic and Reason Rule over you, you are not allowed to disagree.
I do disagree and will criticize the game and its developer as much as I want to. What are you going to do about it you bootlicking faggot?

>A game is not developed for you.
Yes it is. It is developed for its consumers. Otherwise it would not be made public.
You are not as smart as you think, nor you understand market.

I'm still mad about it
I'm still mad about all the failure sandboxes
I'm still making my own
and it WILL take forever to make and it WILL be good

That's not how the TOS works. It just means the game can change and you're not entitled to the alpha features. You still have the right to not be happy and say it.

>I took a first-year philosophy class and learned what a constructive dilemma is!
And you fucking FAILED that class, too. t=/=f.

The dev continued to be a fucking scam artist and his reputation didn't take enough of a hit when he vanished off the face of the earth the first time, so he came back to make another quick buck off of Steam users.

He probably killed himself.

the game is still shit, wollay

>they are bound by the TOS
TOS is not absolute, and never has been. Courts specifically don't give a shit about TOS for the very reason that it could allow any company to escape the law by basically just saying "we're exempt from all wrongdoing."
>you are not allowed to complain about the change
Courts all over the world has always ruled in favor of the little guy, whether it's an individual or class-action lawsuit. If this wasn't the case, we'd be in an Orwellian society by now, instead of 50 years from now.
>those 5 lines of complete bullshit
Games, by and large, are developed and crafted for the specific market of people who play games. Sequels of games are developed to appeal to the fans, and thus revolves around the opinions and reviews they share.

You learned why you should NEVER EVER fund Early Access games the hard way, that's what happened.

kill yourself already wollay.

Yeah

Literal autist with anxiety having a panic attack

I don't know why he didn't simply improve upon the foundation instead of changing it inherently, but he clearly has severe issues with handling massive amounts of attention, or negativity.

The hell happened to starbound again? Was it something like, the crafting and random stuff is pure filler and extremely small, and the only thing it has going for it is the main story or something?

they removed 80% of the content

wollay is a hack
