This is EVE we’re talking about. This is honestly one of the more benign if not weird habits.
This is the game where to join a corp you nearly needed a resume so people could make sure you weren’t a spy because months to years infiltration processes happen in this game. Or just rampant piracy.
This is the thing i keep hearing about EVE player, they have the culture of running the game like in real life which sounds interesting, but i swear if i ever try this game i would be bored of it in 5 hours.
Isn’t there’s also a news channel that report on what happened in EVE?
EVE is one of those games that early on it’s tutorial was essentially ‘Here’s a spaceship, go fuck yourself.’ When they say you can do whatever the hell you want, it’s really not joking. There are people who live in JITA (most populace system) purely doing scams, or running markets. You have people who go into piracy or try to build massive empires.
I knew a guy who his entire playing of the game was making ammo to sell. There was a corp who’s entire thing was doing PVP but with a bend to “Customer service”, as in “Here is your complimentary missile delivery.” and after blowing you up sending you a request to fill a survey on how the customer service was.
So it’s a game that really is what you put in it. The reason I had to quit is it’s a massive time sink. It’s definitely not a game of “Oh, I’ve got about 30 minutes, let me hop on.”
That’s the reason i don’t think i would like the game, it’s a massive space sim that require a lot of time to get into. It just isn’t a game for me, i think i would be confused by the lack of direction the game have, but i always enjoy the story people tell that happened within the game.
I feel like EVE is the direction MMOs needed to go. It’s why so many failed.
It’s what worked for wow when it first came out. The sense of BEING in some other world where things are different is something wow did very very well. The problem is that nobody had any part in building that world, that the story quickly became convoluted and stupid, and that jumping theough the next arbitrary hoop in a fucking Skinner box isn’t escaping this world.
Whoever finds out how to build an mmo where people can build things and make decisions and just fuck everything up if they’re so inclined and make it accessible is going to make a fortune.

There’s an excellent, albeit 5hr documentary about the history of EVE online, its absolutely incredible
