Don't waste your time... you'll never get it back... *that was part of the lyrics of the song playing right now.* The game is beautiful, and the theory is nice but it get's boring (played the trial)

Go there carefully.

Once you get into eve, you ruin most other mmos. It's awesome and kinda unique.

To make it interesting you need to become a part of something bigger than yourself - ie. join an active corporation with a 0.0 or wh presence.

Also; 21 day trials can be handed out from existing players, that extra week is very helpful in determining wheter eve is interesting for you or not.

That said I stopped playing after 3 days. So I doubt having extra time to not play would be useful. That said I can see the appeal. I quite enjoyed my ship...

I played for a while a couple years back, and appreciated it for being the one MMO that wasn't identical to the rest, but I have to agree with Zero Punctuation's review that they made it quite boring. That said, I never joined a corp. Thinking about playing again...

It looks good, and I have some friends that play, but I don't think I could commit to it.

The game is much easier to play when you're with a group of chilled-out people. The goal of my corporation is to bring together relatively inexperienced players that want to PVP with PVP activities and to make some isk along the way by engaging in ded and sleep sites. Avoid the nonsense of killboard quotas and mining. Losses don't matter. When people get better we will start kill more than we loose.

Once I have a few people in the corp, I will then focus on developing what is needed most.

It's a very 'INTP/INTJ' type game indeed.

Add me in game, character name is Jaffster. I would definitely be interested.

My advertisement.

I had a dream. A dream where we could venture out in New Eden in our mining barges or PVE fitted ships and do what we felt like with not a care in the world. Be free to mine roids or mission run in low sec without the fear of being ganked. We could watch out wallets increase in units to our heart's content. No one out there ruining how we wanted to play the game. Joy and happiness manifest.

Uneasiness came over me. I had to ask myself a question: was this dream of my own cognition? I could feel it. It was coming closer to me. Surrounding me. I could hear it. It was speaking to me. Telling me it was not so. Something was terribly wrong. For days this feeling lingered over me. Organizing my corporation's activities, setting up industry operations, getting my subordinates isk and posting information, it just did not leave me.

After months of being in a capsule, I felt the need to stretch my legs. I set my destination to Jita 4-4. Dangerous, I know. Those ******* Goons had been causing all sorts of havoc. Just messing with people who want to make their way in New Eden without being harassed. I took the chance anyway. At Jita 4-4, there are always new people to meet and make mining deals with. I made my way passed the suicide gankers without being touched. It was a relief. Still, the sight of the suicide gankers made me feel more uneasy.

I got out of my pod, walked to my quarters and collapsed on a bed for the first time in years. The suicide gankers kept on running through my mind. The want to just be left alone to lock roids while watching youtube followed. Let''s just say trying to get to sleep that night was difficult. I woke multiple times and it took quite some time to go back to sleep.

I woke for the forth time. Something was not right. I wondered over to the basin and splashed some water on my face. I looked in the mirror and could not longer recognize the man in the mirror. I noticed that the features had become soft. Become soft, the words stuck with me. I asked myself whether or not spending so much time in Empire Space had made me become soft. I kept on repeating 'become soft'. I started to hyperventilate while repeating 'become soft'. The word 'soft' started to make me giggle. The suicide gankers entered my mind. The thought of destroying something for the sake of destroying something. Hilarity ensued.

It was funny. What was wrong entered my mind. I don't want to mine and PVE, I want to destroy. That dream was a lie. Specifically to destroy the weak and the helpless. The miners and the mission runners. I want to bring empires to their knees. I want their blood. Their blood instantaneously evaporating as pressure in their capsule approaches 0 in milliseconds. I want to charge into battle with all hell breaking loose. Yes, 'hell', that is the word. I want hell to be unleashed upon New Eden.

NAHAAHAHAHA WHERES YOUR ANARCHIST GOD NAO??!?!?!11 GOD IS DEAD!!

I wouldn't really worry though, Eve is still pretty much an anarchy.

They exploited a flaw in the game design. The developers are simply going to remove any gains they made.

Just of two days ago I closed the corporation. Another corporation had been begging me to join them and I eventually gave in.
