OK I'll try again.

The issue isn't about what people want. I personally would be delighted to see meaingful avatar gameplay added to EVE, The possibilities of literally adding a new dimension to the game are enormous. Done right, it would pull EVE to the next level.

The issue is that CCP clearly lacks the technical chops, the the organisational talent and above all the financial resources to produce WiS done right.

I recently learned that there is site where you can gather money for different kind of projects. That gave me idea: How about crowd funding operation to make Incarna reality?

I was very disappointed when Incarna was cancelled. It was so exciting project. I could gamble ISK on smoky establishments and perhaps create establishment myself. No more ship spinning!

Comments are welcome for my idea!

Oh, irony.

I've read only the first 25 pages of this thread... so excuse me if I repeat a suggestion already made.

But why not simply crowdfund WiS development?

Set a target of US$1M, or whatever would be enough to get something meaningful done, and see whether it flies on kickstarter.

WiS supporters could put their money where their mouth is. And those disinterested in WiS would not need to worry about it cannibalising other EVE development.

We're getting WiS and it's called Legion. It's been sneaked under everyone's noses. Huzzah
