I started playing the game when it was released back in Sept 2018. I got instantly hooked. In my mind, it was Minecraft met Eve Online and had a baby. I stopped playing Eve as the game was dying and needed a new MMO fix. I never played Minecraft as it seemed to be for ākidsā at that time. So this was the perfect game for me.
Boundless was this cool combination of voxel based building with open world sandbox goodness allowing you to shape the world around you. The element that captured me from the beginning was the use of portals found in the trailer. Just this idea that I could travel to new and distant worlds while building new things was fascinating to me.
Heck, I still remember the day I opened my first portal on my starter planet of Phemenorium. I felt like a kid on Christmas who just opened up this amazing present!
Every aspect of the game felt like going down a rabbit hole. No aspect of the game felt superficial or dumbed down.
Eventually I stopped playing because I had ābeatenā the game. I made a ton of coins to satisfy my ingame needs from the early game. I leveled up as high as I could for PVE activities.
But after awhile, you get tired of traveling to the same planet but with different colors. The handful of NPCs was no longer enough. You could easily cheese the meteors if youāre in a sizable group. And I donāt consider myself to be a great builder with a beautiful sense of aesthetics. It was apparent the company was struggling with its own development issues. So I stopped playing.
Came back recently in light of recent news. Thanks

Had played through vanilla Terraria and wanted something a bit similar but more 3d (visually minecraft never interested me).
Joined beta after finding game on a deep googly/steam search and loved it from first landing and hitting stuff with my totem.
Still hoping for more Terraria-like systems 
somewhere down the line

My kids pointed Boundless out to me. Canāt remember the date but it was during the last 3 weeks that backing was available. I just adored the trailer.
Iāve been a fan of the voxel genre since I beta tested Minecraft. Iāve tried them all.
Each has that one thing that if it was put into other voxel games would make it shine brighter than the rest.
Chisels definitely had me excited to dig in.
I was very very skeptical that the portals worked as smoothly as the trailer seemed to make it appear they would.
After logging in and wandering the starter planet I came across a player made Mall and itās portal hub.
I think I spent the next hour just hopping back and forth.
I ran to the guys, drug them into my office and showed them how easy the transition was.
Iāve been hooked ever since.
If I could, I would get the highest backer package available.
Shame I didnāt.

My husband (Jarohdan in game) was watching Lollash and Llamachimp from their first stream, so he joined in and settled in the old Shire. Then he convinced me to join, and Iāve been on Storis II ever since. The game has given me well over four and half thousand hours of enjoyment. Still havenāt built everything I want to build.

I was browsing the PlayStation store looking at new releases and Boundless was due out the following week, but you could get early access if you pre-ordered it. I looked at the trailer and the video quality wasnāt great, so I wasnāt sure that I liked it visually, but it seemed to be like a mmo Minecraft so I bought it and about 5000 hours later I still love it.
Itās probably my favourite game of all time. (Sorry Jet Set Willy, sorry Skool Daze.)

@AdoraLupinatu showed me the game. Yes, you can blame her for me being around.
After Creativerse and the teleporters having insanely long loading times, I was blown away by Boundlessā near-instantaneously-loading portals which display their destinations.
Although I was also sold on things I saw in trailers which either were wiped or never made it into the game (despite being in trailers).

Stream of PlayStation acces is what got me hooked in the first 5-10 minutes i saw it.
-multiple worlds
-soooooo many colors
And basically the possibilityās that werenāt available for Minecraft Console without additional costs (back then).
I arrived at Niia Zed Ka 30-60 minutes later and started my boundless journey

I know you donāt know me, but my first week of playing Boundless, I had built near-ish your gorgeous build on Maryx and you came over, said nice things about my absolute trash hovel, and gave me titanium tools. I appreciated it so much and I hope youāll come back to the game some day!

I was watching this game since it was kickstarted as Oort Online. What hooked me is it wasnāt just squares like Minecraft and it was a persistent universe. The idea of going through portals and fighting big baddies like titans as group kind of brought back memories of EverQuest. I unfortunately didnāt have the money at the time to do the early backing but I did pre order when I saw it was on PlayStation.

Iām not sure if I was already keeping an eye on it during kickstarter since I canāt back there without a credit card. What I can tell for sure is: back then when it got released on Steam it made it to my wishlist due to the portals. Also I loved the multiplayer aspect that was showcased in the trailer.
Still the price was preventing me to buy it right away at that time. When it was part of a humble bundle there was no other way than insta-buy it. 
Portal fueling was a huge bummer tho and what got me in the end was actually chiseling blocks, the block color variation and the other people I could play with (as to be expected of a ābuilderā).
Iām pretty sure Iāll be back playing when the new IP owner starts pushing out updates.

i saw an Oort online video whist looking for āgames like minecraftā. it looked aāight, but i dindāt want to get into an mmo (not a people person (barely a person)
some time later it was a steam recommendation and on sale, decided to give it a go. nearly 4000 hours later i think i might actually like MMOs. who knew
the 1st thing in that oort online video that got me interested was chiselling i think.

You gave me a good tour around your estate. You seemed very much the opposite of what you said there lol.
Did Boundless change you?

On a whim, honestly, I searched the term Boundless as a query for a potential video game title. Lo and Behold! It existed. I wasnt terribly interested initially, āoh great another Minecraft cloneā. After watching a YT named ABloodyViking and @Jiivita I decided to purchase my first ever EA game on PC. Wasnt dissappointed. Bought it on Ps4 at release, and convinced a couple friends to try it out too.

I saw random pics and vids of the game while it was in EA. Iād check on it occasionally. Iād never played minecraft, simply because the graphics were too low grade for me.
My grandmother passed away June 5th, 2019. That night, I searched for and bought the game. Been playing it every since.
That six month period after she passed, Boundless helped me deal with and be distracted from my grief.
Though what drew me in was a video I saw of someone playing on Vulpto. I spent weeks looking for that world, only to find out that it was part of EA and I was a bit upset. Even went back and watched the trailer again, realizing the footage used was from EA and not the current iteration.

I bought this game because two of my friends were playing it on steam early access. I played this game when your character was a white polygon and your grapple was a line with a bezier curve.
It was just another <insert generic voxel game here> that was on sale so i bought it so i could join my friend, which i never ended up playing with and ended up logging out of the game after 20 minutes.
then the devs changed the name from Oort Online and it was forgotten.
Fast forward to the farming release being announced in PC Gamer, i found out i already owned this game.
I still dont like the name the old one was better, I honestly thought it was a scam because it disappeared off steam.
