On the strategic side of the coin, he said that exposing this kind of behavior to the public can be a 'powerful force' in its own right. 'Our hope is that other developers will see this and be willing to explore, maintain and defend their freedom of expression without as much worry.' 'For years now there has been a growing sense in our company that trademark issues in the gaming industry were getting out of hand and that talking about our experience might help,' he explained. However, last week we decided to break our silence.'ДЇraser said Ironclad decided to speak out now for two reasons: moral and strategic. We never commented when the story broke in the news. 'We never brought up the cease and desist. The focus should be on the games themselves,' Fraser told us. 'We don't like to talk about the business side of things in public. What he didn't make clear is why the studio opted not to speak about the dismissal of the suit, which actually happened in May 2013, until now. In a blog post that went up last week, Ironclad Games Director Blair Fraser spoke in detail about the studio's First Amendment victory over Rebellion, explaining what led to the legal action, the nature of its defense and the potential impact of the decision on the gaming industry as a whole. A judge dismissed the case more than a year ago, ruling that the title qualifies as 'expressive speech' and is thus protected by the First Amendment, and if you're wondering why you didn't hear anything about it until now, it's because Ironclad opted to not to publicize the victory in an effort to 'let bygones be bygones.' But now Rebellion has launched new legal action against the game in Canada and the U.K., and that's prompted Ironclad to speak up. Sniper Elite studio Rebellion Developments filed a lawsuit against Ironclad Games in 2012 over Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion, claiming that the title infringed on Rebellion's trademark.

If you're impatient to explore the the beautifully right angled world of Cube World, there's an alpha in progress. Maybe the boss will drop a key or a treasure which is needed for another quest.' you might find an old crypt and when you enter it, there is a skeleton boss that you have to defeat. Quests are just there and players can find them by exploring. 'We removed quest-givers and also removed all markers from the world map. 'We made the system more exploration-based,' von Funck said. Meanwhile, the game's questing is less like an MMO nowadays and more geared towards exploration.

Due to the world's procedural generation creating quests is a bit trickier than it is in most RPGs, so co-creator Wolfram von Funck was forced to put 'quests in areas that haven't been generated yet', which sounds like black magic to me. Of course, we've known a little bit about how Cube World will handle questing for a while. The studio warns that it is still 'adding more variations and content to the quests' and that the footage below is not final. We know, because after a prolonged and eerie silence Picroma has released a new video detailing what the studio has been busy working on.

Never fear, because Cube World is still in development.
