So … what about the abusive pay for play system hidden in a free to play , were you need to spend hundred of dollars to be hable to have some decent content?. Making it open source is just a strategy add content … Without spending a penny .
Eve is a Screensaver where you spin your ship.
Best description ever
It used to be a classic phrase in the eve forums when I was playing long ago.
If I was unemployed and didn't have anything to do in real life, I would play eve. It's a great game for people who wants to become more and more powerful in a virtual galaxy at the expense of it consuming all your life.
Yeah, completly agree with you.
I tried it again after a 10 years hiatus and... Forgot how good and game is and... how time consuming as well.
I stumbled upon an expression summarising it perfectly: EVE isn't a video game, it's a hobby. Requiring time and dedication.
It was fine during college, but now... Not anymore.
