Maybe my memory is fuzzy but I seem to recall when PLEX was only 350m. I remember when belts would be stripped bare in most high sec systems. And this wasn't too long ago (maybe 4 or 5 years when I first signed up?) |

TBH, I think the game itself is better than it was when I first started some years ago. But yeah, mission running needs some major work. I absolutely refuse to do missions. Maybe replace some missions with tasks that give the player some room to find their own solutions e.g. retrieve some gizmo which can be dropped by belt rats, found in hacking sites or bought off the market. |

So I've taken a month off Eve and don't see myself going back to this game anytime soon.
My primary reason is that there are so many good games on Steam/GOG these days.
And the good thing about these games is that you can mod or customise them to your taste.
With an MMO, you have no choice. You either have to like what the devs give, or quit. And playing an MMO feels like a job. If you're not playing, then you're falling behind everyone else, so what's the point?
Meh. I can't blame CCP. It's just the nature of MMOs. |

Hmmm, I logged back in after a few months' hiatus to see how the game's changed.
I had previously logged out in low sec, so I launch my ship and blap some belt NPCs for 10 minutes. Then a "pirate" I had added to my contact list jumps in, proceeds to hunt me. I dock into a station, wait 15 minutes, the pirate is still hanging around. I then think about hauling myself back to high sec, realised it would probably take 30-60 minutes to jump/refit/whatever.
"**** this"
log off, load up steam |

You highlight one of EVE's biggest negatives, i.e. the amount of time it can take to do stuff. Sometimes just getting to where you want to be can take many minutes of warping between gates. Obviously space is big and CCP have to give us that illusion of traveling long distances, so I don't really know what else they could do without ruining other aspects of gameplay. But still, when you look at your route and see 20+ jumps, sometimes it's difficult not think "Meh..." and log off.
Yeah, it's a bit of a pickle. |

The barrer of re-entry to this game is probably too high. Players who enjoyed the game back in 2010 may not resub for $15 on a game they've already tried (and got bored of). You can buy some good indie titles on Steam for that much money. |

Um, screw you buddy. I'm subbed all the way to 2017, but there are other people out there who prefer to build a library of games, rather than remain subbed to a single game. |
