The basic of this is simple.
When you get out of work you want to chill out not to be stressed out again.
Yes this game is mathematically genious and grapically awsome. A pure marvel of human creativety.
Yet, when I get home after some pure marvel of human creativety I want to chill out also and get into some simple maths.
This game got into some intrecacies I wont follow anymore as a worker.
Kings invented games to chill out because they had time. Then there was checkers, dames, game of go yet all civisation had their chill out delicacies. When you have time you play and get some out reality into a game.
Games are meant to be fun and simple. Just a simple way to chill out into an opponent into a simplified environment for some short time.
Now you guys in CCP crossed some borders into real life and play. You can attrack peeps that have alot of time to waste but I am a worker and with some limited time to chill out on work schedule I do need to chill out and wish to.
I aint a king and dont have to be one to be happy in a game to chill out.

He's saying he lives in a country where the working class simply don't have the time and energy to play EVE. I know of one at least where working class means 2-3 jobs so I can see what he's getting at.

Your view of eve is 100% spot on. Its not a simple game, and its definitely a niche market that caters to certain people ;)

As much as I hate to say it this is the case with most MMORG's.
They are set up to take vast amounts of time.
Some are simplistic but they are still time based.
To be honest if I don't have the time or the wish to be very socialable I will play
a stand alone game.
A stand alone game allows you to stop and pause where you wish and continue on the next day or week and nothing will have changed when you last saved the game.
If your RL requirements do not allow enough time for you to play EVE consistently or you just don't feel relaxed then EVE is NOT for you.
I can think of lots of MMORG's and stand alone games that are not for me.
It is a personal choice and best of luck on your next endeavor.
P.S. - check out this site,
Orbiter - A free space flight simulator
The simulator can be lots of fun

I could correct all english mistakes if that was an opinion.
Yet I do beleive my words where understanble yet not totally english like. The core of my words are understanble. I could get my words into french if you can bare this but I wont and no need to be because the main object of the message is readeable and understanble.
Sorry my poor english I aint one and dont want to be one.
Hope that last sentence got into clear understanding.

eve is as simple or complex as you make it. it is simple if you stay in a noob corp and just run missions. it is complex if you get into the 0.0 land grab wars, and gang pvp/fleet pvp

The OP's rambling, semi-incoherent bad grammar/spelling post is one of the primary reasons I'm still involved in this VR "WORLD". It weeds people like that out.
If EVE were "easy" it wouldn't be EVE.
The OP should speak for himself. Not everyone feels the same stress, the same way, nor do they want the same things. Beauty is in choice. Have fun with the orcs.

Just got me into more thinking...
Since eve is so involving, yet you need to make a choice into social, work and family and in general and life daily choars. You have to cross peeps who have some low standards of living to be in a game that demand so much involment.
That cant be psychologically saine upon exhanges between you and your gaming personnal environment.

Actually MMORG's are no different then sports or a night in a bar or any other type of social activity done on a regular bases. All these things require commitment on one part or another and the changing of your lifestyle to make it work.
It all boils down to time management and how effect you are at doing it.
If anything I find MMORG's help in the understanding of the world around you.
Short of going to another country which in most cases people just don't have the cash to do.
Where else can you meet with so many different nationalities and get an understanding of what they are about.
I have lived about 11 years in Europe before moving back to the states nd I can tell you for truth that people are really the same EVERYWHERE, they all have the same problems and concerns. Some are much worse off then others but if you get down to the core we are all the same.
I found that EVERY country has it country hicks or people that live there lives in the same town and have there opinions based just on what is in that town and have no understanding of the world around them.
MMORG's help people see some more then just there corner of the world.
It all comes down to adapt or die.

ooh, the V for Victory series of games was fantastic!
Nothing at all like an MMOG though, but for a single player turned based games they were awesome. I thought I heard they are being re-released or something too.

Any good multiplayer game is gonna be incredibly complex.
This is because humans are complex.
And the best games are those that involve Yomi (knowing the mind of your opponent).
But not all games require the time that EVE does, so I suppose this is what you mean.

CCP changed nothing, you simply let the game get to you.
I did have a stretch where the game was getting to me, I was spending too much time playing, but i just stopped, put it down. Recently came back, anbd am just paying for the fun again, hour this day, maybe 2 hours another day.

Who says? I LIKE complicated. I got bored of Space Invaders years ago- I want my spaceship games these days to be deep and complex.
Not everyone does though. People need to play whatever games they enjoy. If you don't enjoy EVE, quitting is the right thing for you.
What I don't understand, though, is why everyone who decides not to play EVE needs to log on to EVE-O and complain about it. Leave, be happy! Unless you're saying a polite goodbye to a community full of friends, why come on here to tell us we're playing a bad game?

In line with this answer, if you just wanted to chill...why on earth did you choose EvE? Most of us come here knowing what the game is about. Some more so than others. Especially when its payed for thru a subcription.
You wouldnt go buy a car without finding out about it first would you? I usually take it for a test drive first to make sure i like it. Oh wait.....EvE have a 'test drive'!! Why on earth did you carry on playing if you didnt like it?
Recommendation : Pop down to your nearest store and buy yourselves some board games, chess, checkers. I would recommend monopoly but i think youll find that too stressful.
(This isnt a flame btw, just chillin havin a laugh)

Further more....
Quote:
Because a wide variety of activities are enjoyable, numerous types of games have developed. What creates an enjoyable game varies from one individual to the next. Age, understanding (of the game), intelligence level, and (to some extent) personality are factors that determine what games a person enjoys. Depending on these factors, people vary the number and complexity of objectives, rules, challenges, and participants to increase their enjoyment. Games generally involve mental and/or physical stimulation. For this reason, they are beneficial after a large meal or a long and tedious task, but counterproductive if played immediately before sleeping. Many games help develop practical skills and serve as exercise or perform an educational, simulational or psychological role.

Well maybe he chose EVE because he knows something you don't .
You don't know untill you try it
And i agree it's going in the wrong direction for a lot of players . At least a lot i talk to.
There are about 15 of us seriously considering quitting after running a few level 5's in Singularity Saturday .
I have 3 paying accounts , and most them have multiples as well , and my main is worth almost 5 billion alone .
And no you can't have my stuff !

Welcome to the competative gamingworld in a MMO.. If you want something simpler for pure fun without effort I suggest SimCity, Age Of Empire series, Baldurs Gate is still an excellent game too.. or why not some fastpaced FPS like Quake or some counterstrike? :)
Seriosly, this is the very essence of a good MMO, risk vs reward, time gives more and you dont get anything served on a silverplatter, if these are things you can live with then keep on playing, if not, just dont play EVE. Simple as that.

Any serious hobby that requires 10 hours a week won't match with a busy work schedule and EVE requires at least that. If you can't put these hours into it, chances are you can't be in a player corp (which limits the fun factor) and you'll not be doing so well financially. Neither it is the healthiest hobby, as in the same time you could have done something physically active or read something informative or did something with your family if you live with any. But it is way better than watching a TV for those same 10 hours, for example. And there are activities in EVE that are not sressful but still fun, like marker pvp for example.

I really like how babelfish failed to translate "please" but it got the gist of everything else pretty well.

it's a mmo for god's sake, it designed to be time consuming/"hard", thats why work = reward. If you want it easy go fire up some SP game and use cheats!

This reads...
Could i have your stuff? Please? You dont have to be able speak a certain language to communicate, but people will read it and respect what you write that little bit more if you can.

I like Eve. But its neither mathematically genius (for one thing that'd be INgenious, and its not - with stuff rounded under the hood and not shown, and every bonus displayed in different often non-sensical ways) nor is it graphically awesome. If you want a graphically neat space game, check out X3 (and X-tended 0.7a). Just compare their planets to the billard balls in Eve. Pleeeease

Guess this thread can be translated to: 'Why doesn't EVE cater to people like me, who are tired after work and want something simple ?'
Answer: There are enough other games and hobbies for people, who just want to relax and think EVE is to complex or demanding after work.
EVE is for people, who like to play a game like EVE. Don't like it, don't play it.
I mean if you think football after work is too exhausting, you don't play it. Problem solved.

There's a line drawn between having a game to play and having a game that rules your life. Some unfortunately overstep that line but in Eve, it is quite easy to take that step. For those who prefer to chill out and have fun, it is often difficult to play when so many are using Eve as an alternative to RL and play every second they possibly can. The casual gamer often has a problem with this sort of game when fierce competition comes from players who are playing almost 23/7.
I can easily make sense of the OP's dilemma. Eve is too intense to play as a way to relax after work for some. If you work in a factory where the brain is rarely used, it's a way to keep the brain from vegetating through lack of use. If you already use your brain constantly at work, Eve can be too tiring to play in the evening as a means to wind down. For the second group, they want a game that needs less grey matter interaction than Eve requires.
My job is borderline. I have to use my head but not as much as a computer programmer for example. I can still fire up Eve and have a bit of fun but it can still be tiring after too long. It's a bit like having two jobs, your RL one and the virtual one. Some can cope with the two job scenario, some can't.

The basic of this is simple.
When you get out of work you want to chill out not to be stressed out again.
Yes this game is mathematically genious and grapically awsome. A pure marvel of human creativety.
Yet, when I get home after some pure marvel of human creativety I want to chill out also and get into some simple maths.
This game got into some intrecacies I wont follow anymore as a worker.
Kings invented games to chill out because they had time. Then there was checkers, dames, game of go yet all civisation had their chill out delicacies. When you have time you play and get some out reality into a game.
Games are meant to be fun and simple. Just a simple way to chill out into an opponent into a simplified environment for some short time.
Now you guys in CCP crossed some borders into real life and play. You can attrack peeps that have alot of time to waste but I am a worker and with some limited time to chill out on work schedule I do need to chill out and wish to.
I aint a king and dont have to be one to be happy in a game to chill out.
If you don't really quit I'm going to wardec you in response to your assault on the English language.

Eve in some ways is less of a time sink honestly, you can train skills while offline. you can get to long skills cancel your account for a few months, and go frolic in the grass, smell some flowers, get a suntan. come back and you can fly a hac or whatever.
Most mmos everything is about how long you are seated at the keyboard, killing things to advance your character. I am not a power gamer and took me 3 years of playing asherion's call grinding on monsters for countless hours to hit the max level of 126. if i took a break my character advanced not one bit, and all my friends far surpassed my level.
Eve is a tad harsher than other mmos but way eve is anymore insurance covers the cost of a ship loss if you invest in it, mods on a ship will be your biggest loss with max insurance. Back in the day insurance was a pure joke, think the current default insurance pays out more now with no isk spent that the old insurance did with max investment.
And lets get real here you can fly a bs for level 3s with no risk and own everything in a few hits and takes 3x longer to mop up all the wrecks than to run the actual mission, eve can be as relaxing as you want to make it, or on the flip side as frustrating as you want to make it trying to solo level 4s with the wrong setup or non tank build or living in low/no sec.
You can also mine in empire, play eve in a window, drag ore from a hold to a can for a few hours and launch a few drones now and again to kill rats, while you do work or play poker or solitare at the same time.
I could never multitask while running a raid in a another mmo, or even resource gathering i could not sit safely in one spot for hours in other games gathering ore uninterrupted.
Maybe you should try other mmos, only mmo i could think that was the most time sink free was guild wars since i could log into that game for one to 3 hours and feel i got something done, unlike other mmos where it took hours a day for a week or more to advance one bit.

If you didn't find the right corporation, then you will be under the impression you can't play and work at the same time.
If you find the right corp that will understand you have a life....
