»Our fight against tyranny is hard but our cause will never die

Everyone wants to be freedom fighter. Just as we have more Brigadier Generals, than grunts, we have huge number of "freedom fighters" harassing the tyrants and their lackeys who are not only a minority, but practically extinct. You can travel through Metropolis and meet many kind players who are staunch supporters of the Minmatar Republic, even though not enlisted in FW. There are no corps left in EVE outside of militia, who roleplay Amarr supporters. Of course, the real question is when will CCP make Amarr a "pirate" faction whose only purpose is to provide NPC targets. Roll

Posting in a cynthia thread but.........

:P

Couldn't agree more. RP is so binary for the amarr and minmatar factions. SLAVERS vs SLAVES... it's not actually like that but its all the newbies see. You'd think it doesn't make a differance but it does :(

Storyline could be better. Make Minmatar genocidal or something.

Well, they're already tribal. That's what turned me off of them and to the Gallente.

The Minmatar are already socially backwards, extremely tribalistic, violent, and furnish a massive fraction of New Eden's criminal and pirate population.

They only look good because they get to stand next to the Amarr, who appear to have been carefully crafted to be as repulsive as possible to an inhabitant of a 21st century western nation.

Roleplaying a wealthy, handsome and charming slaver is so much more fun than pretending to be some poor, scruffy looking slave with shackles around his wrists!

So, are you accusing CVA of not being Amarr roleplayers?

Or are you just adding a completely unrelated comment to distract from the fact that your statement is false?

i gave it a try and posted something similar in the RP area a few days ago. I got a block of text as reply basically saying that slavery is indeed bad but the amarr way of slavery is cool since they are special or something. I read it twice but a am still unable to take anything positive out of the backstory.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

I thought the amarr and minmatar imbalance was that the amarr can beat a minmatar gang outnumbered and then tell the minmatar gang why they lost (such as, don't shoot thermal and kinetic at an eagle with SFI's and Cerbs) but the minmatar still get butthurt because they lost the engagement, even though they "learned" (using the term loosely here) something from it.

Except you're forgetting the fact that Minmatar are pretty much the Al-Qaeda of EVE.
