So here is something that's always struck me as a little odd. EVE is such a large and diverse universe with players being able to do just about anything they want to. So how is it I've never come across roleplay? It's not like there isn't lore for the game that's been established. In fact the beautiful thing about it is that it's open-ended enough for player influence.
Am I just not looking hard enough? Is it some small niche group hidden in some backwater corner of New Eden? I'd really like to know. I can help but feel that roleplay would add so much more to the EVE experience. |

You need to look outside high sec. Most roleplayers are in low sec and 0.0. Also they are usually not hardcore roleplayers. THeir entities act in a roleplayer way ( defend a cause, declare wars agaisnt groups that defend the opposing causes, but not speak in character stuff)

Playing at being a pirate/mercenary/spacedictator is a bit redundant in a game where you can actually just be a pirate/mercenary/spacedictator.

Granted. But typically you feel more like the player doing that rather than the character. Unless you're making your actions similar to those of your character. But then you're still missing the interaction between the characters. That's more the element I'm looking for.

It's "Intergalactic Summit" and "Out of Character". "The Summit" is player run and filled with mostly half wits.
Btw... you should remove that shirt of yours, hun. ;)

To some extent, everyone who plays this game is a role player. If you have ever said "I am at the stargate", you are a role player. Why? Because you were not at a stargate, you were sitting in a chair in front of a computer playing a game.
But as you said, and even thought "I am at the stargate", you naturally fell into role playing.

Roleplay here is a bit more action, and a bit less talking in ye olde English (ye olde English doesn't even fit the futuristic sci-fi setting anyway). People don't have time to write a novel in the chat channels during PVP, and otherwise in voice-chat, when you hear "X is primary, gate is red, warp to me, keep the gate cloak" and other such calls, that IS roleplay.
If you read some of the recent chronicles that CCP wrote, we are capsuleers, and the chaos we cause in-game, as well as posting on the "galnet" = forums, is acknowledged as in-character.
Otherwise, as it's been stated, there is a community and there are channels to join to get into it even more. |

Roleplay exists, but loosely. A lot of RP'ers are not super serious about it. Like if someone in fleet says "crap, the baby is crying - BRB" you don't get a bunch of nerds saying "Baby? In space? What the devil is going on? Are you on boosters?".
The Intergalactic Summit is still the place to go for topics and discussion inline with the story.
Eve is very "meta-gamed" so it's not like there is rock-solid immersion being broken. The internet is referred to as "galnet" and links for RP oriented websites are provides, but again, when it's a forum or wordpress page, you don't get fake confusion over the 20th century terran advertisements plastered all over it. (Though that would be rather funny: "Your galnet site has an advertisement for a booster I never heard of that claims something about bedroom performance...")

Now you see, I always RP a crush with Diana Kim because it's simply funny. I'm careful not to take it too far though, I'm creepy enough in RL. A hard-headed androgynous 5th Dragonaur zealot being hit on by an Intaki provides an avenue for lols.
Little things like that.

Dummy. We're naked in those pods. Thus there's only one way to roleplay when playing Eve: naked in a vat of green Jello.
OK to be honest I never did that. But freeballing should still count.

The biggest role player of all time in the Eve universe, has to be Santo Trafficante. I have never, seen anyone in eve, putting so much time and hard effort into his own bio, by making links of each letter of a word/sentence, to glorious and self-admiring kills. He even makes (or made, last time I checked), funny statements, like "Yo, check this bro and his 6 bio pod" where each single word and number of the quote above, is a link to an actual kill of his within the killboards.
I just wish there were more like him. Granted, EVE lacks pretty much in role players otherwise. |

Once she almost broke my arm, because I wanted to hold her hand while she was asleep. I was just sitting at her bed. I was too tired to fly home so I just stayed at her place.
She's actually really cute when she's asleep, but the sexual repression she's suffering from is insane!
I do wonder if she ever figured out what to do with that rubber missile she got ................

Maybe next time get a permit if you want to mine or just don't pick a mining ship if you want to PvP.

When you run into me in space, I am Morgan and how I interact with others in local is Morgan, not me. In corp and other chats, I am Tristan, some old dude from the US.
If you look for roleplaying, you will find it but it isn't like Goldshire on Moon Guard (on that game that shall not be mentioned) where it is apparent. People do it in their own way.
How I do it is I write out stories on my war encounters, like this one and this one. I speak of my exploits in war decs through stories, which not many people do but they seem to enjoy it, but that is because I am a Dungeons and Dragons nerd.
Currently, I am actually writing a story on this character's background and how she decided to become a capsuleer and her early career and will head to current times. At 10k words right now and she hasn't even left her home planet yet, so will be a long one. So far having a blast writing it...
Just something about me...

Now you see, I always RP a crush with Diana Kim because it's simply funny. I'm careful not to take it too far though, I'm creepy enough in RL. A hard-headed androgynous 5th Dragonaur zealot being hit on by an Intaki provides an avenue for lols. Little things like that.

She's actually really cute when she's asleep, but the sexual repression she's suffering from is insane!

Just sold one of my corpses tonight to another pilot for 1.5b ISK, It's currently the only Shelby corpse known to exist so they're like totally collectible! But there's more where that came from, Mista K, I got me some swanky jump clones yo.
I'll do ya the standard ol' frozen, busted up corpse for 1b. Or you can opt for a restored version for just 1.25b!!
Restored versions are like totes lifelike yo. But that's not all!! For like another 250m ISK you can even select to have deluxe features installed in your Shelby Doll corpse for full posability n' interactive fun!! Like WOW what a bargain.

To return to the topic at hand, RP in EVE is largely sequestered away in different chat channels. IGS and OOC are typically hubs where you meet other roleplayers and from there find your way to other channels relevant to your interests. Only times I've seen RP happening in local is typically in some low sec FW systems and during live events, altough typically its drowned out by a hundred of other people asking "wtf is going on lol." |

It was your fault. Paying attention doesn't get you killed!
1) Said loss was a considerable time ago, back before I even knew gankers were that big of a problem in the game now. There was a time when there wasn't whole alliances dedicated to making high sec a hunting ground.
2) I remember the gank clearly and it happened so fast that I didn't get a chance to react. You can't do a thing when several ships warp directly to you and blow you up in less than 10 seconds. I was there, and by the time I saw them warp in it was already too late. After learning more about ganker tactics now I assume someone else who came into the belt before acted as a scout and marked my location. CODE didn't check to see if I was AFK or ask me for proof of a permit. They just killed me for the lulz and moved on.
I've come a long way since then and am much more prepared now. I fly safer ships, I am more observant of local, and I trust no one. This game has taught me that you have to be a certain degree of paranoid to survive if you are on your own. But I am learning more every day. Losses like that will not be likely to occur again. |

Okay.
Ganking isn't a big problem at all, no matter how much propaganda is filling the people's minds.
And you don't need to fly safer ships. People who use skiffs or procurers for mining don't get the point of what is going on at all. People simply chose not to learn being active and instead took the easy way out by tanking.
I've been using orca+three covetors when I did my research into the field and haven't been ganked once, simply because I don't play afk and know how to make sure I can not be ganked at all.
It seems weird, but when you use tanky ships to mine you actually do exactly what they want, instead of using a full yield setup, bookmarks and constant alignment while moving through the belt.
Your fault was to not doing it right, as in: denying the ability to attempt a gank in the first place. No tank will save you when you just sit there, not ready to warp out within a few seconds.
Yeah it's absolutely doable. I've cleaned belts in Hala... Himala... **** lol ... the birth place (!) of the new order.
When I saw cats warping in I warped my fleet out within a second.
Perfectly safe. That's how it's done, because tanking does not help in the long run, but instead is exactly how they want you to behave.
This is especially true for ice miners, btw.
