Yeah Mr. T reference.
I'm not going into detail, rather not just be another bitter vet rant, but EVE has been going in the wrong direction for a few years now, and CCP keeps shooting itself in the foot. It appears there may be some games coming that will have more of an interest to me. The casual play style is getting nerfed more and more every year, and honestly, I have no desire to devote as much time to EVE as it really requires at this point. I had fun when there was fun to be had, lots actually, just look at my kill boards, not too bad for a solo player...I admit I do suck at this game, but don't we all?
This has been a couple years coming. I kept my subscription going hoping lowsec would turn around and there would be good fights again to be had, but my circle of pvp buddies have slowly filtered away and quit, I'm one of the last left. CCP did some GREAT things to boost pvp over the years only to nerf them later. It's a shame because this is/was a really good game.
But as everything in life we move on to other things eventually :) Hopefully CCP keeps it going and makes good choices in the future. Maybe I'll be back, but more than likely not. http://youtu.be/yytbDZrw1jc |

I'm sure you have acquired more than isk, we all do, except maybe carebears. You just mentioned it like it was something of significance and its really not. Maybe you should mention what else you acquired and the thread will be more meaningful then the same, same old.

Playing from 2007, actualy got 600mil isk on wallet, long time ago my max was 25bil. i stay here, losing money isynt reason to leave game. Long time ago i change view on this game and my play style, every one may be happy even without money in game.
The most worse thing that people do in game is , that they focus only on ISk, focusing only on earning and endless ISK farming-grindg is bad and make people unhapy - or like zoombe. Playing only or focusing just because ISK is bad. If it bleed we can kill it. |

Me too! But I have acquired much more than that in my short time. That is irrelevant, I am abrasive to people as their replies tell me a lot more about them than if I am nice. "PvE in EVE is a trap to turn you into PvP content, don't confuse it for actual gameplay." Lipbite |

The incursion nerf was enough that it made people too risk adverse to really go out and fight unless they had absolutely overwhelming numbers or 100% chance of victory...which is just stupid because it doesn't cost all that much to get a BC or a cruiser and get a gang and fly....but people are people and they cling to their isk waaaaay to much....at least when there was a good source of income, the highsec folks grew some balls and started roaming lowsec, because they could make up their losses in a week.
Hell, even most WH people are like that, did a C5, then a C6 for a while...half the time either they would POS up or my failures of corps/alliances would POS up...
I don't know, it is what it is, maybe they'll figure out how to get things going again for everyone. FW changes were a good start, but that is fairly limited in the big picture, not everyone wants to do FW. More accessibility to funds helps a lot. I have my losses, I didn't care so much, even after the incursion nerfs I still would take out 2+ bil t3s and lose them, but some people just can't deal with it unless they have a pretty regular and easy way to recoup.
The biggest problem is making the game require more and more of people's time. It alienates the casual, which is where you're going to make your money. The past few years of "expansions" has just alienated the casual more and more, it's unfortunate but it is what it is. Like me, a lot of the casuals are usually good for at least 2 accounts once they've been playing a while, which is another big hit to revenue once they start leaving.
By no means is EVE dying, but I don't forsee it being like it used to be again unless things take a different course. The industry changes were about it for me to want to continue...big slap in the face, pretty much invalidated the last 8 years of everything I had done that wasn't pvp focused. I was willing to hang around for a while and just do my thing pissing around with PI and industry with my alt for a bit, but it's really just not worth it to me at this point.
Sucks too, I just finished training up for all the dreads lol. I had taken a bit of a break because of work and didn't log in much, ended up getting the boot from my C6 corp for inactivity. They ended up joining Disavowed, of which I found out while still part of the corp aren't really all that, and honestly nothing for any of the WH dwellers to be afraid of...I'm not sure but I think they failcascaded eventually anyways...
It's been fun, but just not my cup of tea anymore. I need something less involved honestly, life and all that...EVE just isn't it... http://youtu.be/yytbDZrw1jc |

You've gotten your cause and effect wrong.
Incursions are actually at fault for the current situation, thanks to them causing such rampant inflation. That's why ships cost ten times as much as a few years ago.
But static direct income injections, that being isk from missions and bounties, was never adjusted to compensate (and rightly so, otherwise we'd all be screwed by now). But that has the effect of hitting the new player the hardest, as their income streams are rather more limited.
So, you can blame inflation for the current woes of ship replacement cost.
It has to deflate before this will be addressed. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Fair enough.
I think the changes to industry are just something that were so large it takes a lot to understand the whole picture. When only looking at it from a personal POV based on the way you were doing things, it is easy to feel like you got screwed. When you step back and look at it with fresh eyes and acknowledge the game changed, it seems it opened more opportunity. But I haven't informed myself enough to form a cohesive argument, these are just impressions so maybe I am wrong.

Other than CCP directly saying that Incursions don't contribute much to the overall isk faucets, being less than 10% of total faucets. and that we don't have inflation atm, actually deflation. Null sec ratting actually accounts for about 50% of all isk entering the game if you want the largest culprit, WH NPC buy orders the second biggest around 20%.

It won't it's a persistent problem that once the market gets to the point it did, there's no turning back. Look at plex prices. You are right to some degree but the availability to acquire isk after 6 months worth of training in relation to the effort to replace ships was enough at that period to get some really good pvp, and constant.
This was one of the last epic fights to be had for me and my motley crew: http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_related&kll_id=13069607 It was a 3 way on the gate into Obalyu, absolutely epic...about 45 minutes of people killing and reshipping and my little band of 6 or 7 ended up winning the field, was one of the best memories I have of that brief little period that there were good fights. Had others but that one was always my favorite. http://youtu.be/yytbDZrw1jc |

Drone goo nerf and NPC loot nerf increased minerals prices, increased mineral requirements for ships and insurance nerf all attributed to increased ship replacement costs.
Barakkus: Sad to see another old school player go. I have seen many friends just stop logging in over the years as well. You'll probably be back, as there is no game compareble to EVE Online at the moment. Luckily for CCP I might add. |

Context, get some.
He, and I, were talking about the enormous inflation caused by pre nerf incursions.
That's why they were nerfed in the first place. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

So, you can blame inflation for the current woes of ship replacement cost.
It has to deflate before this will be addressed.

Hope you will be back after a good break. I've only been playing for a little over 4 and a half years, mostly PVE, and even I have had to take some leave from Eve here and there. Either way, where ever the Gate takes you next, good luck and have fun with it. |

By they way, removing 50 billion isk from the game actually means the rest of us our richer due to inflation, although in the case of 50bil that is almost meaningless.
I thought pvp has improved actually in the recent years with the ship rebalance. Although stupid ships being introduced like the garmur don't help keep pvp interesting I do agree. What exactly was it about pvp in your opinion which has become worse recently out of interest? |

This guys reason for leaving is a problem and he is right for his reasons, he simply has more important things to do.
I know this much., If I ever quit I will never tell anyone, I'll just leave. And I wont be back. I will simply Biomass my toons with my 200 Billion worth of assets and ISK no one gets a bloody thing. |

Maybe things will change with the game and we'll see you again. It seems that a lot of old timers have been bowing out. CCP needs to have a look at that and see if they can make the game fun again for blob averse pilots.

Old timers are leaving, while newcomers are ganked right after they leave noob star system. (im looking at you, CODE.)
I dot think that EVE is dying because of CCP. EVE is dying because players themselves are killing it.
BLOBs are not the outcome of EVE mechanics, it is an outcome of sandbox and open moonolithic world. CODE. in a nutshell |

Yeah the thought of bowing out has been on my mind as well and I've been here since 2006. There's a general malaise going on that while rightly lampooned as "bitter vet syndrome" in the past is become more palpable as a problem that is not so trivial. It's not a feeling like "everything sucks" or something like that, it's more of a "meh" feeling, like storm watching on a clear day when you'd rather be poolside or at a beach party.

Hey dude I have also played EvE online for nearly 8 years myself and I have thoughts of also leaving this game but I will wait till the end of November 2014 if I should continue with EvE.
Best of luck mate for whatever you are doing next.

Quote:32. "Quitting" posts are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience channel.
CCP recognize that during the course of gameplay a lot of friendships are made between players and that sometimes if a player is taking a break or departing from the EVE universe that they would like to say goodbye on the forums. Posts of this nature are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience forum, and must be civil and well worded. Moved to OOPE.
