Adventure is a thrilling endeavour, often to foreign places that you would usually consider hazardous. In an online MMORPG game, preparing an adventure only requires you have a destination. Selecting routes, you could choose the fastest and easiest way, but this would be quite melancholy. Consider taking the longer, more perilous route for extra thrills. Sandbox MMORPG games grant you the power to create your own fun, further explained at Make own fun in sandbox MMO games online: Life is Feudal.
Fight or Flight, also referred to by gamers as an adrenaline rush, occurs when faced with danger. You normally experience this sensation when faced with difficult enemies or situations. Feelings of not wishing to lose become similar to those of self preservation, for both PvP and PvE. LiF prioritizes open world PvP over PvE, more info on this at Life is Feudal the PvP online MMO: PvP over PvE.
Example, imagine traveling through the medieval 3d virtual world of Life is Feudal. Suddenly, you are beset by three bandits using mounted combat! This triggers your fight or flight response, either attempting to evade the bandits or defeat them in our MMO PvP. Thrilling situations such as this also draw you into the open world MMORPG.
Immersion and Flow are two similar sensations relating to how engrossed you are in what you are doing. Immersion can refer to any point between being partially or completely engrossed; flow is total absorption or concentration on what you are doing. Examples of flow in online sandbox games are the planning and construction of buildings, and tasks that require high amounts of technical skill.
Bonding pertains to the strengthening of relationships through experiences. Online MMORPGs allow players to adventure together and in the case of Life is Feudal: build, battle or craft their own adventures. There are no specific examples for bonding; any activity can be considered bonding as long as you experience it with someone. Bonding is amplified if experienced with one of the other three emotional responses.
