You don't pvp. Sometimes, you spare enough from your wallet to fit a frigate and see what all the fuss is about, but you don't pvp. You run missions and farm plexes in your stabbed Incursus, but you don't pvp. Your whole reason for existence in this game is to see that number in the wallet window grow larger and larger.

You're not fooling anyone.

This is why I mention your sense of entitlement, as if someone else is supposed to care about what you want to do.

Players do what is most profitable for them, you make it more profitable to be in null and low more players will go there, leading to a more interesting and vibrant game (in my opinion). That's not to say you should HAVE to go to either of these regions...

We're not afraid and envious of hisec people making more isk, but we're afraid of what CCP seems to be driving this game forward and further away from it's core sandbox concept.

CCP said, advertised and promised that Eve, is a conflict driven game, it's a game about war, about actions and consequences, it's on their ads, videos, clips, posters, everywhere. It's written on their website, it's stated various times by official CCP representatives; so yes, I believe and can safely bet that my (or our) interpretation of Eve is mostly correct.

Provocation and implying that I had done something that I didn't do doesn't make it true.

They don't need my faith to run the company, nor do I need to give them. I've always appreciated their work and dedication to this game; but when I say I'm disappointed, I will say I am. It has nothing to do with my respect towards CCP.

Also, take the tin foil hat off, most null sec players I know (including goons, believe it or not) are in favour of a moon goo (or at least a tech) nerf.

That is my problem over all. Elitism preventing Eve from being the best god damn MMO sandbox on this planet.

Remember Earth and Beyond? Great game, too bad it closed. No imagine if someone took the concept up again, looked and studied Eve, and applied the gameplay of FiS AND made WiS a core part of the game. They made the universe even MORE immersive than Eve. Do you think Eve and CCP would survive?

CCP has survived by staying one step ahead of the competition on every aspect of their game. But ships and balancing will only take one so far. If a business is to expand, it needs to adapt its product or service to encompass more publics. You don't do that, you die off eventually to the competition.

It doesn't seem like you like to play multiplayer games really. Perhaps a real solo game, would go better with your solo play style.

One of my main issues with HS is the ability to earn isk afk, whether it be mining or mission running.

As it stands with regards to manufacturing and research, it really is absurd that people in hisec not only have the safety of hisec but also the best/most facilities.

We find and shoot those poses, problem solved.

.
Except hisec's economic competitive advantage will be decreased if nullsec ever gets an industrial buff.

I don't know about you, but I'm not aiming at people who haven't moved to nullsec in some capacity already, I'm aiming at the people who have proven that they're willing to take at least some risk, but they've wisened up to the fact that hisec is way too good at manufacturing that it doesn't make sense in any way, shape or form to try to do manufacturing in nullsec.

I've tried doing nullsec manufacturing, it sucks dicks through a straw, so I moved back to hisec.

Depends on how casual the gamers you want to get are. If you're looking at the current "hurr MY BARGE GOT GANKED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN PUT A TANK ON IT IT WOULD HURT MY YIELD!!!!!!!!!!!!! **** GOONS!!!!!!!!!!!" whiners, then I can't express how little I want them to move into nullsec. No, I'd settle for industry being more or less as laid back as it is currently in hisec, and for that to happen doesn't necessitate null to "change utterly".

Explain.

Translation: I was asked to clarify what I considered wrong with the null player mindset and what I think it should be, but I didn't actually have anything in mind and was just using it as a talking point, so I'll pretend the argument makes itself and dodge the question entirely.

Ultimately F'Elch, your view of the game is exactly the problem, in that people want the game to be what they personally want, rather than those people enjoying the game for what it actually is.

If you didn't like sandbox games with unforgiving death penalties, no really "safe" playing areas and that requires workman-like dedication (ie EVE is a job) to make any REAL in-game money, why do you play it?
