i have accepted that the game is bad. But skill training is just too addictive.

I have more space likes than you.

Let's be honest, we all know that Eve is for all intents and purposes just a really cool forum that happens to come with some crappy space sim attached.

Every time I see a thread complaining about something in EVE I hear WoW mentioned.

Is it that EVE players are jealous that EVE is niche and WoW is mainstream? I hear so much jealousy but I see no logical link.


Quite the opposite imo. I think that most EVE players have played other MMO's where the goal seems to be to acheive level X and get a shiney sword so you can have bragging rights.

Sometimes it seems that people compare EVE to these game in an obvious way like "oh no you lost you shiney ship". The question you really need to ask is; is losing that ship a big deal?

People are so akin to the idea that once they get the "shiney mega flying horse" that it is their's and they can't lose it from other MMO's that they try to apply the same logic to EVE.

EVE is just so fundamentally different from many mainstream MMO's. It's why a large portion of us play it and why a small portion of people come on here and whine that they dont understand why Mr Pirate can blow up their golden horsey.
