It's funny, what you hated about Eve is what I liked. Success was about brains, persistence and relationships, not grinding or mouse & keyboard skill (although those certainly helped). Not totally unlike real life.
It's been five or six years since I played though, no idea what kind of hot garbage it's turned into since then.
- sandworm101 8y agoEve for my corp became all about politics. Instead of working as a team to find and hold territory, it became all about who was going to be in charge of the team. There was no skill beyond having friends. Battles are now directed, with everyone simply contributing firepower to the slugfest. The only actually combat is between team leaders. I was a scrounger for my corp (Oberon). I was the guy who went out and bought 100x of some rare bit of gear. Wanted stuff would just appear in our hangars. Quiet cargo swaps in disused systems were my thing. Now corps are so big, the travel system so alterable, that such meetups require days of offline negotiation. That isn't fun.
