🎮 Why do you play Boundless?

I’m curious, what are the top 3 reasons you play Boundless?
(Edit to add: you can select more than 3 reasons, if you’d like to)
Do you just play to relax and have fun or do you have a goal? Does it serve a specific purpose for you that other games don’t?

  • Build things
  • Be in a guild
  • Create a Great City
  • Craft things
  • Explore
  • Hunting
  • Farming
  • Socialize
  • Collect things
  • Be Viceroy
  • Mining
  • Have the most plots
  • Because my friend/spouse/etc plays it
  • Diversion from IRL
  • Mental Health
  • Pure fun
  • Something else (comment below)

I chose 3 options that are the reasons why I play, but not the things I like doing in this game. I could have chosen other things! So I chose Mental Health, Diversion from IRL and pure fun. But all the socializing and building I do in this game are what makes it all pure fun, a good diversion and good for my mental health lol

my something else would be to make interactive mini games (like jumping puzzles or race tracks, for example) and by doing so with what I have available, maybe, hopefully convince the Devs to give us a few more tools to make these much more interesting / fun

How is this a reason you currently play Boundless?

a few of them plus something else = create new things

The grapples and the style of the game. No other game I’ve played compares in either regard.

Honestly? For me, every breath is a battle, and every thought is a war. And I don’t think I’m winning anymore. So I play to build and distract.

I picked pure fun as that’s the real reason why I play, I like doing most on the list but that’s not why play

You do whatever you need to - to get you through. If you ever need to vent or need someone to talk to, send me a message.

it’s one of the reasons. I also like to build ( and I would be able to build more fun things if I had a few extra options. for now I’m building less fun things with what I got now)

So hard to choose 3! :smiley: So split it up a bit, but diversion, explore, building, fun, mining, collecting, socializing, and mental health all apply bigtime. :slight_smile: What is so great about Boundless - different things to do depending on my mood, such a great community, so much to explore… could keep going on, but summed up by: best escape from reality, therapy for sadness, that I have found!

Mining, building storage and hoarding stuff to that storage.
Community and developers are really cool in this game! Big reason why I have been continue to play :slight_smile:

Chose building, mining and escapism but another reason would be it’s these attributes plus being a game I can easily abandon at a moments notice.

I would rather have 5 to chose to be true - they are all equal more or less for me (as reasons to play): building, exploring, crafting were my choices here, but I would add mining and farming to that as well. Farming would be maybe a bit behind the others but the four without farming defo equally attractive for me.
