Great article on social gaming...about a game created in 1985. Personally, I think CCP is at its best when it creates simulations based of the canon of its universe. It tends to do horribly when it tries to make a game. FW plex balancing? It's gamey, feels gamey, and inevitably gets owned. The Destiny engine for fleet fights? Somehow, the core fundamentals of the simulation haven't changed that much in 9 years, and they keep working.

Just my 0.02 ISK of course.

Fix POSes.  Every player should want one (even if all players can't have one).
