Anyone changing their mind about this as the release gets closer? Its available for pre-order now with access to the beta in Jan.
I for one am going to give it a try. Mostly because I want some kind of concrete story. As a 'carebear' I actually would like to feel like I'm doing something more then just making money. I'll still keep my eve account open as I don't have any issue with this game and will most likely return at some point but I hold out hope that STO delivers on their promises.

Seems like most people who have an issue with STO are the PVP people who want to be able to kill people who aren't there to fight...

I call it a valid issue. Why should Cryptic make their game a safe haven from those who want to be able to prey upon others?
And why are you playing EVE in the first place if that is what you want, to have your hand held by the developer?
Well, me personally, am playing eve because I like the idea of a space mmo and this is the best available. That being said I'd like to play a game with a story, I don't want to fight other people or worry about getting slaughtered while I'm doing something else. If I want to fight someone I'll play COD or something similar.
I'm not sure why people who want to prey on others are upset or confused when the prey don't want to be preyed on. It would be akin to asking them to play missions and not complain about it.

Not all of those who don't find STO that appealing are out to attack those who don't wish to fight, maybe we just don't want to play a game where we have to wear pyjamas in space.
Bit of an assumption there I would say, sweeping generalization and all that.
Are the pajamas's you're wearing in your avatar better? What do you think you'll be wearing if walking in stations ever happens? Jeans? A leather jacket with a skull on it?
And I'm not saying that the fighting things is what everyone is saying I'm just addressing the most common issue. If you don't like the game then fine, doesn't matter one way or the other to me I'm just avoiding work and curious.

Hey, these pyjamas are top quality Yeti hair 
I enjoyed Star Trek but found it a bit twee in many ways, I haven't really looked at the game much as the premise just doesn't appeal that much, I read some of the features of the game and nothing made me want to give it a go.
Fair enough if people want to try it, go ahead, one of the friends I play EVE with is looking forward to playing it, don't think it will do much to draw countless players from this game though, as the OP is claiming.
I think it will draw a fair number of PVE players from this game as they probably feel kind of ignored as far as content goes. To be fair they are trying to fix this but seems a long way off.
I think this forum gives a pretty uneven bias toward the PVP type person and probably doesn't represent an even sampling.
