First let me say that this post is to reiterate my opinions on the aspect of EVE to those that scream nerf, to those that wonder why everything gets nerfed. I was even one that was upset about some of the changes, so I can empathize with many of the player base. Keeping that in mind, remember these are opinions not facts.
Long ago when CCP was first beginning I imagine a small group of people that came together and decided to make a futuristic space aged game where players could do almost anything they wanted and have FUN doing it. Players would run missions, PVP, form market trends, almost like a little SIM city. As the player base grew so did the content.
The introduction of recons, HAC's, Carriers and Dreadnaughts were massive improvements in the eyes of many of the player base. This patch if I remeber correctly was called Red Moon Rising. It was the peak of EVE IMO and many others. WHY?
This patch introduced new ships yes, but what it did was open game play. It introduced a wider range of EW ships, Counters to speed, heavy tanks, other forms of EW. In other words it turned Rock, Paper, Scissors, into Rock, Paper, Scissores, Glue, Anvil, Tinfoil 8), ect. It opened gameplay until the latest Trinity of which is taking it all away.
EVE has grown so much in my time of playing it. A small gang today is mostly composed of about 20-30 people. It used to be you, and two or three of your friends. Anyways, as it grew so did the younger players. Younger players are fine IMO, however in order to make more money CCP closed the gap between almost all of the player base. They have introduced more new ships that are impossible to afford for most players. It has become a company now, CCP. There main motive is making money. No longer do they care about keeping people happy, they just want to keep as many people as they can. It seems that CCP used to be a company that said hey look how much fun our player base is having our game rocks 8). To hey look at all of our awards and new graphics engines our game rocks...... player base -> but running 2 accounts and all the bugs make playing difficult.... CCP -> So what look at all our awards. boot.ini... whats that? Heh.
Well I know its my opinions but that is what I think has happened and I am frustrated because I really did like this game, and I think so did most of the CCP staff. Thier priorities have changed obviously, but there is good news... Pirates of the Burning Sea is actually pretty good. 8)
If you made it this far and are confused this is mostly a rant on my part to alleviate frustration. Feel free to discuss comment.... omg BE flame him. I dont really care. Just said to think Ill be selling a lot of my stuff soon 8(. See ya laters 0/
