    Ah, the only game that you win by quitting. I’ve been winning Eve Online since like 2019.

    While it was awesome experience but man, it ate huge chunk of my time.

    No regrets tho.

    I have no idea about the current state of the game. I haven’t logged in for almost half a decade at this point. But i have no hope at all that gameplay is any better than it was when I left. Between the massive push for RMT skill training making the time investment worthless and a (at the time) new owner changing a bunch of little things it just wasn’t the game I enjoyed playing anymore.

    I tried EVE way back when because the logistics bit interested me. Lasted maybe two weeks—yes, not enough time, but the time sink required was ridiculous.

    I point all those interested in EVE Online to ProsperousUniverse. No P2W. No auto-recurring sub. Slow paced and doesn’t penalize you for not being online all the time.

      I got a week’s free trial to EVE Online way back in the day. I played through the tutorial bit where it shows you how to click on an asteroid to shoot it, I got into the game proper, encountered another human character, asked what the game was about, and he said “Anything you want.” And I logged off and never looked back.

    A truely horrible game built entirely to encourage griefing people. It should be recognised as the most antisocial game of all time. Nothing else. Let it die.

    I really wanted to like EVE and tried to get into it several times because two friends were deep into it but the game is boring af to me, feels like watching a screensaver even during combat. Ditched it after 1-2 weeks every time.
