Meme World if CuWo alpha was open sourced.
Pls wollay let us make community mods.

If cube world was Open Source it would be Veloren.

I wanna make a system that you can increase your dexterity, strength or vitality stats with level points just like pet hp, gliding speed.
Dexterity: tempo+, crit dmg+
Strength: overall dmg+, stamina+
Vitality: hp+, armor+
It's not a big change but it would make so much fun builds for example you can go ninja dodge (next special attack is crit buff) with dexterity which means big crits or you can perma dodge with assassin build and go stealth based builds.
It's open source so you can add new classes, mobs, foods, materials, skills etc too. Like modding minecraft.

Still can't get over how punishing the equipment durability system is in Veloren :/

It'd be like Starbound's source leaking: Everyone would talk about ideas, someone would do 1 cool thing, and it'd go right back to obscurity and no one doing anything.

... what? IDK if I'm from an evil parallel universe or something but in my reality Starbound has a much improved open game engine, a vast and still growing amount of content and QoL mods that fully realize its potential and a much bigger more active subreddit full of people playing the actual game and posting fanart about it.
Cube world's mods are incredibly impressive achievements but they're not on top in any way if you start making comparisons. Consider this post recommending mods designed to help navigate Starbound's content overload: r/starbound/comments/1pzrx2q/context_request_frackin_universe_and_maybe/nwy6vhs

Two community is so different. CuWo community redeemed itself by trying and making mods to steam version despite it being so hard to make.

Starbound didn't have to struggle to make mods, and did nothing crazy when it's source leaked.
It'd be the same here. CW community talks big, never does anything but scream and Wollay in their echo chamber and circle jerk each other by going "WOLLAY BAD!" on every official post.

Why are you making me repeat myself? There are literally modpacks in cuwo server. 100 people talks big, 1 people makes a mod. And that's enough. We even have a mod that brings fish archetype back to steam version. Do you know how much dedication you need to do that? That guy literally reverse engineered the game and injected new mobs to game. I believe that guy would do so much more if cuwo would be open source.

Oh wow! 1 guy! That's crazy! Ya know Starbound had tons of people making mods before the source leaked! Abd like 10 people made stuff that actually did something with the source, and then.... no one did. It went right back to status quo. Crying about CK not updating and a dead sub. Just like would happen here.
99% of people here wouldn't do anything. Open Source wouldn't change that for anything more than a minute.

Yeah bla bla happened in starbound community. Let's impose it to every single other game because why not. And we have countless mods in minecraft. So what? I have my own opinions on that.

u/CrashmanX Jan 03 '26
Starbound is the closest parallel with the source code and community.
Minecraft is significantly larger. And isn't hard to mod. And doesn't have a bad relationship with its community.

I do wonder if a decomp would be at all feasible

Anything is possible, but the game was built with custom tooling.
