For around 8 years the mighty small giant of CCP stood true for what she claimed to be a game developer started by gamers for gamers. She build up what was to be a true game off unknown proportions and a near limitless playing field, she did not pamper her gamers, she threw them in the deep admits a mighty hurricane and told them simply it was learn to swim or die. Those who did not drown found their opinions respected and answered as the game progressed.
So the players formed up corporations and alliances each with their purpose though in general there was 1 main purpose, PVP and under that flag they sailed the stars fighting each other where they could as friendships and bitter enemies where formed. They started to lay claim to regions of space fast and rich, however there something went wrong, the riches made them settle down, they didn't head out so much any more, PVP suddenly seemed only a necessity to protect their riches and so they had fallen to greed as they gartered their riches as fast as they could, others became jealous and not hindered by any space riches they needed to defend they launched the assault. So the once mighty alliance sailing under the flag of PVP fell as they had lost their focus on their purpose and ideals and the riches they thought where so important where lost.
So it seems CCP is going like a fast alliance with a clear goal she slowly started to grind to a hold seeing the riches and finally they fell for them. So it seems just moments away before an other game developer comes in claims their riches and leaves them with nothing, but old glory that will fade rapidly in a fast changing world.
So the story of the once small giant ends soon to fade into the unknown as the player who where once loyal to her pick up their bags and look for a place where they can find what they once had when playing EVE online. I will be with them as I pack my bags, unplug my clones and put it all to rest. It is a sad day for gaming, but greed is a powerful evil and we can only hope that our next stop does not fall for it.
