Nothing is explained, the world is infinite, the quests endless, and all without clear reason. But now, it's just a boring sequence of low-level questing with some extremely simple crafting systems. It's a band-aid for a dearth of stuff to do once fully geared up.Ĭube World would have been a novelty at its time of announcement. Make it to a new zone and your gear gets downscaled to the level of a new player, like an endless string of lonely MMO starting zones. Cube World doesn't appear to end, the map an infinite scroll of videogame biomes, each region its own pocket of progression-yeah, apparently progress is region-specific.
