This game is good, but could be better.
We were promised so much from the alpha. This is just a few that we could have gotten
More skill trees. This version. Nothing new
More classes. This version? Nothing
More races. This version? Nothing at all.
And that's just more of what we were "promised" Now to show my thoughts
Gameplay feels smooth and the game looks really nice. So much better looking than the alpha, but thats just how the game looks.

-Artifacts. This on paper seems fine, but region locking on some seems weird and not fun to get in every region.
Reigns, Boats, and Hang Gliders should not be region locked. Everything else is fine. I feel like that if the region lock You're so slow other wise and traveling is tedious and instead of killing mobs which is useless in this version of the game. You're walking aimlessly hoping to see an npc to tell you where to go, and if you don't find any npcs that do that. Then you're forced to explore which seems silly. I would do that on my own while i'm killing things, but since killing things don't matter exploring is forced and I don't like that at all.

-Equipment Equipment is the end all be all in most games like this, and getting the best equipment possible so you can blaze through the game is what make games like this fun. IMho, but in this region lock makes that so dumb.. Because you need to do the "quests" and most of the quests are near impossible without the right equipment. If you were to make it easier to get equipment then region lock would be OK. Like, say from mobs then killing mobs would actually mean something! Green mobs should have a higher chance of dropping equipment. White mobs should have a higher chance of dropping equipment. Blue mobs should have a higher chance of getting blue equipment, and especially for your class. It's disappointing to get equipment for the wrong class. Especially if i'm playing solo which is mainly what I do.

Otherwise farming for equipment from only quests, which i'll talk about in a bit. Seems tedious and unfun. I played for about 6 hours and it wasn't till i did quests. I started getting equipment for my class... Hello? That doesn't seem right at all.
(I've played for about 12 hrs or so btw) so half a day

Questing: Questing is so dumb in this. Why? Because all you do is walk around like aimlessly hoping an npc can tell you where to go, and they almost never spawn, and to top it off. All the "friendlys" as ppl tend to call em are mainly just the roaming ones, and the only real npcs that give u quests are the one in the towns. Which makes sense, so basically you have to find most of the stuff by exploring. Which again, seems silly to me.
Also, why is there no quest log? If you want questing to be a thing. That's fine, and that's great. The alpha had no real incentive so this is actually quite nice and fun, but to find the quests is ridiculous. I think a quest log could be great and fix a lot of the issues of questing in this game. The questing seems even more tedious and grindy.

-Overall. If you're new. You've got nothing to lose. Game is so cheap and you're supporting a passionate indie game dev, but if ur an alpha player like me, You'll slowly go insane trying to play this game, and trust me at first you'd be like "Oh, this game is great!" Then after playing you'll realize how flawed this version is. It has a long way to go, and feels half assed. So rushed. LIke he realized suddenly after 6 years, Wait, I still have a game to complete! And rushed this out. I mean, that's fine and i'm glad he actually released it, but this version is not good, and there's many other things that i could say, and wollay if you do actually read these. Please take a look at what we have to say. This is for the longevity of your game, and we want this game to succeed. You could merge the two systems together, get rid of region lock equipment, and you'd 'be great honestly. I'd be so happy, but for now this game is as hard pass for me as an alpha player. Peace out Cube World Fam. Hope you all enjoy the game!
