Sticking to worlds

[dwwojcik]

I'm very bad at sticking to SSP worlds in any pack. I get bored and decide to start over.

Does anybody have any tips on how to stay motivated?

Does anybody have any tips on how to stay motivated?

• Don't even think about being motivated/not motivated. Just start playing.
  
• Pick a target (like a mountian, or a castle). Then build a superweapon that can obliterate your target in under 5 seconds.
  
• Build contraptions to kill things in stupidly complex/cool ways.
  
• Break into all Ars Magica generated structures. Some of these can be quite challenging to get into/loot. Creative uses of fire are often recommended.
  
• Oftentimes, bringing a friend/online aquantence or two into one of your worlds via LAN/hamachi for a day once in a while to play can be a great experience. Great for showing off stuff you've built/building new cool stuff.

Those sound like cool ideas, and I'd definitely get to them if I had the chance. Unfortunately boredom usually sets in after 30 min - 6 hours on a world. I can imagine having all the fun in the world in a world where I have unlimited food, great gear, and automated mining machines.

Very deep psychological stuff, this.

Step 1. Build something

Step 2. Blow it up with ridiculous amounts of explosives.

Step 3. Repeat.

Craft more explosives as needed.
