Steam. I pray to Steam. For bringing me to the Boundless universe, Steam is basically a god to me.

A fellow player in the game I was playing mentioned it. I’ve been looking for a voxel game since my precious Landmark shut down.

Stevie saw past the TERRIBLE trailer and forced me to play it. I was just minding my own business on Animal Crossing. Boundless got us through lockdown and I met my soul sister @dax8472

My husband and son was playing it. I myself hadn’t played any type of video game in over 10 years. They begged me to try it out and play the game with them. So I started playing and loved it. Needless to say a week or two later they abandoned me and stopped playing the game… I honestly think they wanted to get me hooked to it, so that I would keep all their beacons filled while they went off to playing Ark and other games hahaha

I backed a game called Oort Online and then after coming back from not really playing pc games for a while it disappeared off my games list so i figured it probably was dead or something…
Then one day PCGamer was like hey check out this mmo game and i was like huh that looks interesting i wonder if i should check it out.
Then later one day i went to go look at it on steam and steam said i already owned the game…

For myself, after playing a fair bit of terraria I searched for something with a bit more depth (ie 3d), so googled searched alternative to both the above and minecraft.
I didn’t come across Boundless straight away and took a while for it to cross my radar (march 2018) but when it did that was that and still is.

Found it by random while looking for minecraft alternatives in 2015 & backed it over at oortonline website

I remember seeing one of the first trailers for Oort Online in a gaming news site and I was mesmerized by it. I couldn’t take the beauty, the portal technology and incredible world engine out of my head. So, some time later, I bought a wayfarer package of it, in September, 2014

I was in a housing guild in ESO and one of my guild buddies, @Mystfit, mentioned she was playing a new game. It had really captured her attention so I was curious about it.

She’s understating it. I said I was going to step off of ESO to play Boundless full time and she just MUST come with me

ESO was also my big addiction before Boundless, pulled me off it almost entirely too!

I liked ESO (though I was never able to embrace housing like I wanted to as it’s more decorating than building) but I can’t play two games. I’m in or out

I used to play a little bit of single player minecraft and Fallout4 on the PS4 and one day some of the games saves became corrupted and I couldn’t bare the thought of starting from scratch again. I had NMS when it first came out and despite all the uproar about all the missing stuff I really enjoyed it but eventually the ridiculously small and tedious storage system put me off playing. I searched for alternative minecraft/open world/exploring/building games and found Boundless which had just been released in Beta on Steam. I watched a few early videos of it on YouTube and thought I’d give it a go and the moment I stepped through the portal in Sanctum onto Therka I was hooked. I then had to upgrade my internet to be able to play it properly without rubber-banding and eventually upgrade my account before it went live to get the plot bonuses … best money I have ever spent on a video game, it’s almost been the only game I have played since August 2017

I saw this post https://www.gamedev.net/forums/topic/659363-oort-online-the-biggest-sandbox-ever33/ and took the bait. The first time I actually played would have been in August, a few weeks later.

I found Boundless not long after the PS4 release. It was originally a game I was going to play for a short time while waiting for another game to release.

I found out about Boundless through Polycraft: wonderstruck’s first game. There was a little ad for “Oort online” on there and I’ve been following the games development ever since
