On that note, though ...

I liked most of what I had read, when I was reading it, but it wasn't EVE. (I'd probably have rather played in the universe that I had read about, in truth.) This may be taking a mildly skewed angle on the point you wanted to make, but in short: We've been making efforts to tie the lore more in with the in-game experience, partly by hosting live events (much more on that in another blog early in the New Year), and partly by focusing some of our writing on in-game entities (including factions and planets).
That being said, the lore has never been aimed to directly recount your experience in-game. It'd be a shoddy, second-rate show if we tried. Instead, we try to paint the backdrop, to give you the idea of the ripples you've caused in the world, rather than just documenting the splash itself.

However, there is this thing called Viking Endurance that both I and Gnauton go to, and we won't rest until Eterne and the rest have signed up for it as well. It's the kind of thing where the first week just makes you want to die, and then after that you don't ever want to stop. |
