Hi , I am pretty new to Eve and i have always loved to read lore about any mmorpg i play. I have been searching in forums and internet for some decent Lore or background story about Eve and its 4 races.
All i could find was mini cinimatic trailer about the different Races.
Wondering if there are any and could any one share some pointers ??
A games lore which is 10 + yrs old is worth a read.
Thanks. |

What 4 races?
If the Jove count as a race then there is at most 2 "Many have joined the battle, many have survived the tests and trials, but countless have fallen because they weren't the sharpest, the fastest thinking, the most devious, the most ruthless or most intelligent. -áLog in and Compete!"-á- CCP Falcon

There are also a number of publications.... novels, comic, and guides etc.
Particually i would look into "Eve Source", its a great bit of work that goes into the lore in a lot of depth

The Fiction Portal on EVElopedia is a really good place to start.
If you're interested in roleplaying, the RP community has a forum at http://backstage.eve-inspiracy.com as well. There's a bunch of lore stuff collected there in addition to quite a bit of player-contributed content. Morwen Lagann CEO, Tyrathlion Interstellar |

Then those dudes finally got their **** together, then they started enslaving and fighting one another because that's cool, then the slave dudes were all like 'wtf **** that' and un-slaved themselves, then the governments made peace and the citizens starting f'in **** up, then they opened up nullsec and were all like 'go away buttheads' but we were all like 'no way bro, but thanks for the extra space to **** up', and then people ran away through wormholes, then the wormholes collapsed and they got stuck. |

Quazi off-topic, but just imagine if NO ONE DIED. or aged. or, apparently, learned the glories of cooperation and peace. Now imagine we had warp drive: EVE Online |

As someone else already said, buy EVE: Source already, that book has all you could ever want to know about the lore, in one condensed form with lots of beautiful pictures. |

Got "Eve:Source" but I can't say it's a great book. The binding is crap, cracked already in my case (and, yes. i laid it on flat surfaces only), right in the middle of this algos schematic. Most of the pictures are just ingame screenshots/renders or wallpapers you can find on eveonline.com. The font is somewhat small and not easy to read. The pages are so thick, they feel like thin carton. Would have been better if they had used thinner, non-gloss paper but more pages so that they could have used a larger font and added more (concept) art. Content wise it's rather ok. You should be able to get most of the info from the wikis lore section. HOWTO: No More Tears (solo) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdA4ciUrH-k If you can get me a better crew than THIS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yPrtQ9AdoM0 convo me. |
