Since Councelor Troy has proven yet again that he still does not get it
I will spell out the only real index that matters in EVE
the "Fun per hour" Index. with the realisation that fun per hour will always depreciate because after a while doing the same thing does get boring.
a Breif overview of its interactions with various feature introduced recently should give you some idea as to whats going on
PI, a Clicky annoying boring clickfest that frankly was not fun for most people,
Net impact, Negative fun Gee I seem to recall there coments about it being considered a non successfull expansion. . .
Incursions New targets to blow up! Fun increase at first, leveling off and beguining a gradual decline as it gets repetative and boreing. . overall impact was an increase in fun with diminishing returns.
Nerfs to anoms, Agrivation Added to feature whos fun value was declining for existant consumers.
Avatar upgrad with new Carbon graphics, A big pile of fun for people that quickly evaporated because there realy was not mutch to do with them besides make a snapshot that mostly gets ignored after the first week or so. overall, Initial net increase in fun that disapates as time goes by leveling off at the meh level for most people, with periodic bouts of "why the hell did I do that" embarasment
WIS (will someone please point out to the developers that WIS is very close to "Wiz" as in take a ****) potential to renue the Fun from new avatars as we get to play Dress up the avatars cut short by idiotic priceing plan. Masive negative hit to fun as people feel that CCP was out to gouge them, ongoing fun deficit as we have to deal with freinds who dont play EVE will think that we are playing "that game created by Greedy stupid idiots" offset by the initial burst of Rioting ingame that was probably a therapudic stress releive, (honestly if Rioting was not fun on some level people just would not do it) however the short term prospect after the initial rioting is that were stuck in a pointless for most players rut for some time now as nothing realy new in the way of fun seems to be comeing. net effect Negative fun.
.End of line.
If your too paranoid to play EvE. . . ...then your not paranoid enough to play EvE ----------------
