Just for the record, I'm still reading all of this and absorbing the information therein.
It's very clear to me that EVE is different than other MMOs, but I suppose I'm still grasping the extent to which this is the case. |

I guess the main MMO difference you need to be wary of--re: thread-- is that EVE uses missions as income or faction grinding. The number of missions are actually quite small, and for the most part all repeatable. Missions, unlike quests are NOT content in EVE, content is Player interaction.
In other games, Quests are content and tie into other content. This isn't true with missions in EVE. Missions are just a dead end really, they don't take you anywhere. So PVE players who retain the habit of following game content through quests and apply the same methodology towards missions, find themselves feeling abandoned by the game.
My choice of pronouns is based on your avatar. Even if I know what is behind the avatar.

Are you sure about this? Because I'm becoming convinced that the Damsel is running away from her dad and whoring here ass out in Kruul's Pleasure Garden just so that I can rescue here and we can have some "alone time" in my ship for a bit before I take her back.

very true. The closest thing to missions, that I can think of, is dailies.
PvE content in general is just a way to earn isk to PvP with in this game. Even myself who does not actively seek out PvP, I use the isk that I make doing PvE to help fund PvP programs for my corp. If you don't have something PvP related to spend isk on this game will become a dead end for you eventually. |
