Ironically enough the game is NOT grindy AT ALL. Well sorry let me rephrase.
The game has no grinding requirements. You can log in, ask someone for 20mil isk, you'll get it trust me. Then basically set a training regiment for the next 6 or so months, you might need to log in once a week to set the next week's training and log out. And suddenly be able to play a high-level game. If you have a friend in nullsec with good farming, grab an appropraite ship, go in, boom boom boom, money. Way less grindy than playing say WoW.
Even better. after those 6 months if you trained your way to a org doctrine, you basically go on, ask the org to please give you a ship, they will, at no cost. And then you have fun. Most orgs make their money from mining moon rocks, so they have fucktons of cash to give away for ships here and there.
Having said that, the times when there's action in the game, its like 3 hrs of hunting for 5 minutes of pew pew. Very uneventful. It is more of a game about making jokes and stories with friends.
- na85 7y agoA game where the onboarding experience is to not play for 6 months can't be fairly described as "not grindy". The fact that your grinding requirements can be done while logged out merely disguises the fact that EVE's developers get 6 months of subscription fees out of you while you wait for artificially-inflated timers to count down.
