People only ask "What's new?" because they've been trained to think that novelty is nothing but positive. We have utterly lost the ability to ask "What is best?" because every single last opinion is as valid as any other. Any discussion of quality becomes an uncivil howling whirlpool of repeated opinions backed by middle school debating. So you played EvE for two years, four years ago, and want a whole bunch of new things. Ok. Try to understand, everybody, please, that some opinions are better than others due to insight, cleverness or even understanding of the game. Luckily we have forums for customers to act tyrannical and vent their infantile trolling/querulousness without having to affect the game any more than needed. This needed to be said, even if you are a troll.

I think you meant 'What can a player gain WITHOUT real life money?' *The ability to know how and why to make insta undocks *The patience to scout out an area and work out who the locals are before committing a ship to activity there without risking a crippling loss. *Knowledge that allows the player to move without being easily preyed on. *Knowledge that allows the player to rat/fight/mine without being immediately destroyed...ie warp to zero at top belt is not always a good idea. *The sense to know that a freighter sized contract courier job to a highsec system that can only be reached through a lowsec pipe will probably involve at least one and up to five surprise donations of battleship dps. *The wariness to know that fleet invites from random strangers aren't always, or even ever, friendly and that this allows said randoms to either warp to you or warp you to them. These may all seem laughably obvious to most people, but i'm anticipating some really cruel lessons getting learned over the next few months as people with little EvE experience roll out in awesome ships with their awesome SP and find AWESOME ADVENTURE whether they want it or not.
