This is an MMO space conquest game, it is not 'the Sims'. 'walking in stations' is not something i would find very appealing at all.
Why do people keep saying this? Of course it's not 'The Sims', we don't have to keep our avatars happy, we don't have to get them jobs and then stare at the empty house. Yes we will be able to buy clothes and whatnot, but by no means is this 'The Sims'. Far from it in fact. Can you go and blow people up in 'The Sims'? Can you build huge ships in 'The Sims'? Can you contest and own space in 'The Sims'? No, you cannot.
So in conclusion.....EVE != 'The Sims' and it never will be.
lol, this is my point exactly;
In eve we can make massive space ships and fly them, we can take 'control' of space , we can also fight for that space or just for fun, thats the way i like it.
To me, all this 'click and giggle', 'look at the shhiiinnneeey lights on my ship when its in the hanger', 'ooohh i can play poker' is B*&$S#@*t, if that is what appeals to you, there are many games out there like 2nd life, sims etc.
Eve has a really great mature player base and would be sad to see this whittled down by ambulation attracting alot of 'click and giggle' type players (this may not happen but it's likely)
The header on this page you are viewing says "EVE ONLINE, The worlds largest game universe",
Ambulation in my eye's won't be helping to spread ppl out over this massive universe, who want's to ambulate in a low sec station etc that gets max 10 visitors a day. In my opininion all the ppl who'll wan't to ambulate will congregate in a few central systems anyway, clogging up the servers, again.
I think the precious dev hrs can be spent on way more useful content, i really liked the idea of Empyrean age, it gets ppl in spaceships conquering space and other ppls spaceships, wich essentially means getting ppl enjoying/useing "The Worlds Largest Game Universe"
No doubt tho, my fellow forum readers will try to prove me wrong and i hope CCP does prove me wrong.
If i ever see that header change to "EVE ONLINE, The worlds most fluffiest cutesy interactive space game  " Im out!
sure the dev time could be used for more important things but what you and a lot of other people are missing is that this is a sort of test for another game ccp is developing if ambulation was not being made for eve those same devs would NOT be developing important stuff for eve they would still be on that other game.
as for ambulation attracting 'click and giggle' type players, well I would find great enjoyment in shooting them, so much in fact that I am training 'deceiving' to level 5 in anticipation. It is going to be great going in to station talking with them face to face and convincing them to go for some "friendly" mission running
