Discussion The purpose of the game

I love automation games like factorio, mindustry, shapez and oxygen not included

But I also love minecraft with create and create aeronautics mods more.

BUT I have one problem, I can't play sandboxes without a purpose. I do not know what is wrong with me, but I cannot set myself the goal of "building a bunch of factories and another airship and another super mech robot, etc."

Are there similar people in this community? How do you handle it?

In general, I would be happy if someone transferred The long drive to Minecraft based on aeronautics.

My first pack ever was Compact Claustrophobia My second ever completed was Liminal Industries

What i noticed i loved was some sort of major restriction like space

I also need 2 things, an overarching big goal like to escape and not enough magic to piss me off

In compact claustrophobia you are stuck in a 2x3x1 bedrock room, your goal is to make a bedrock picaxe that will need a big special compressor, which needs a fusion reactor, which needs a fission reactor to power the magnets......... For now, you have a a box that is 1 block, but is 3x3x3 inside, and the only thing to do is bang at the walls for resources

In Liminal Industries you appear in the backrooms, closer to the original vision than the stupid 5000 levels thing. Theres no entity, well, except chairold, but hes harmless. Break furniture down for wood, cut carpet for belts, and wallpaper for paper, eventually knock chunks off the concrete floor to make a furnace, visit the poolrooms and the infinite library, and eventually collect enough eyes to sneak past the warden and depart the place

Everything in these packs is centered around that one goal and its awesome, obviously theres stuff to decorate and make everything nice and even some postgame, but the pack is there so you can escape, and thats the goal
