My last game was with World of Warcraft, and when I seen this game I tought it would be a good change, and at first, I really liked it.
I'm going to stop you right here. World of Warcraft is the dumbed down e-z mode of MMOs. Blizzard spoils you guys rotten. Often when WoW players leave for other MMOs, they're hit with the reality that other games are *gasp* different!  These differences scare the WoWbrats away where they then cry about how awful other games are. Originally by: Tuscun Nebular
Then as I went on I realized that it's just too complicated, confusing, and just too time consuming.
See above. Originally by: Tuscun Nebular
When they made this game, they forgot to take into account that there's working people out there and catered the game for mostly young people who for the most part are students.
EvE Online is by far the most friendly game for casual players. How many other MMOs allow your character to continue advancing offline? Originally by: Tuscun Nebular
That's why eve online has a limited subscripton.
lol wut? Originally by: Tuscun Nebular
Also, I believe that an actual written walk through guide/book like in other games would be a good idea, because one can refer to it off line! Not every person can spend so many hours on line, hence they can refer to the game off line! God, all of the other mmos have these books!
Again, WoW has spoiled you. All of these things you've listed in the above quote do indeed exist and are readily available. Nobody here is going to spoon feed you nor hold your hand. You actually have to do some reading This is, after all, a game of reading and mathematical comprehension. Originally by: Tuscun Nebular
I found that when I asked for help from the so called vulonteer guys, all they told me was refer to the tutorial. When I attempted to train skills, I was lost because I didn't know what skill to train first, and when I bought a skill that I thought that I needed, I bought it, and when i went to train it, a message pops up, that I can't train that skill until I traind something first.
I'll give in on this one. EvE Online admittedly has the worst tutorial of any video game ever created. This is also one of my personal issues with EvE. Originally by: Tuscun Nebular
What a shame, because this could be a great game like world of warcraft is. And don't tell me that this game is better than WoW just look at the subscription member population, that tells it all!
lol, just because a lot of people subscribe doesn't mean it's a good game. A lot of people sign up for AOL and it's terribad. Runescape and Maple Story each individually have higher "subscription member populations" than World of Warcraft. You're reading too much into these numbers.
So here's the TL;DR version below if all that text above is too much to read:
EvE Online is NOT World of Warcraft.
It will never be in any way, shape, or form.
We have an expression here in EvE and it's pretty much prevalent in every other non WoW MMO. "gb2WoW" Obnoxious crybaby WoWbrats aren't welcome in other MMOs, least of all EvE (not a shot at you personally).
If you want to learn how to play EvE, there are plenty of kind and patient players in this game who will teach you. They will make time from their busy schedules to show you the ropes if you're respectful and courteous. I will personally help you ingame if you ask (with knowledge, not money). In metaphorical terms, I won't give you a fish but I will teach you how to fish.
Crying, whining, and bringing the "EvE suxxors WoW ruels" attitude to the game will only draw flames from other players, both ingame and on the forums (as you've no doubt already witnessed).
