My former station was a "Quafe" station, and while I really liked it, I must say that it was a bit odd. It looked like you just landed in the middle of a plaza or a Mall. Not the best place for a ship. While sterile, the new interiors really look like a docking station. I'd only like more variety (a matching interior to every exterior.) But overall I like the change. I believe WiS will bring some of the missed "ambient" back to stations. And I still hope the dancers have a chance of appearing, since they are not naked, but are just suggestive (which is allowed in a T rated game, if I understand the rating correctly.)
BTW, CCP stated that they didn't want pilots dancing, not the go-go dancers. ----

Originally by: Eventy One Umm, doesn't Europe have similar standardization boards?
You mean, like ESRB? Yes, it's called PEGI. But the ratings are a bit different from those of ESRB. And European stores (as far as I know) do not discriminate adult material as American ones. And as someone pointed out, violence is more ofensive than nudity. After all, kids can see breasts at the beach every summer. 
Originally by: Kyra Felann Most Eve players are 20 or older anyway. Why would Eve, a dark, gritty game, go for a "T" rating, especially considering most of its players are not teenagers?
Because some stores in USA will simply not sell the game if it's rated M. If you want to reach the majority of retail you better be rated T. ----

Originally by: Furious Hawk What? No. They sell M rated games all the time. It's AO games that retailers avoid like the plague.
Oh! That's right. Sorry, I confused M for AO. But then, T has a broader audience than M. It's what most games aim for. ----

Originally by: Kyra Felann I think you're confusing "M" with "AO".
Yes, I already admitted that. ----

Originally by: Decius Erus Edited by: Decius Erus on 13/03/2009 23:29:56 How can a female be inappropriate for a teen? I don't care what she was wearing (if anything) or doing (they can bend like that??). That is just crazy talk. There are times where I hang my head in shame to be American. Ratings are one of those things...
Ratings are ratings. How ratings are enforced is a shame. There's nothing wrong with putting a label saying "this game is violent and contains nudity." It's a great help for parents (I'm happen to be father and I appreciate the help.) But stores refusing to sell AO games or even M games is not very wise. Videogames are still being seen as toys for kids. So the "harmful" ones need to be put away for their "safety." Yes, it's that stupid.
And please, don't feel ashamed for this kind of things. There are a lot of things in your country to be proud of. Don't let the bad parts shade the good ones.  ----
