Yeah, I get you, I can’t get myself back into it either, even though I have a lot of ideas of builds I could do. Truth is, the two biggest reasons I’m not on CV right now is that the game still feels slugish and badly optimized, with minute-long loading-screens everytime you take a teleporter. The other reason is that things aren’t great for Playfulcorp, as they have been forced to fire a big chunk of their devs, and you can see they’re desperately trying to get people’s attention with livestreams and such. I mean… at least, they’re trying. I’m afraid the game might suddenly shut down one day. And yet, they have some nice concurrent player Steam charts…
The game shutting down is also a fear I can’t shake away regarding Boundless, not until the devs really start doing marketing. We’re still waiting for them to update the game’s website, Steam trailer, etc. I really hope the devs do something like a big “here’s where we’re at” thread soon.
Anyway, CV’s recent color-tinting + creative mode + drone camera update is pretty cool. I see lots of people going back to CV, people who coincidentally stopped playing Boundless because of the high-maintenance, PvE aspects and world-regen (which is somewhat being worked on with the current update in testing). Some of them were actually driven away by the behavior of players who wrote in this very thread.
These people who will gladly come back once we get Official Private Worlds, so that they don’t have to deal with more plot-drama. 
I keep trying to show them what the game offers in each update, but that’s never enough. The rental worlds will be the kicker.
