After nearly a year of gameplay I have only recently cracked into EvE lore (stupidstupidstupid) I have been sorta avoiding the Chronicles (morestupidslapingoftheface) until recently I followed one of the related links on the blood raiders page too this

http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Category:End_of_the_World

As the subject of this post implies I am really impressed.

So what is your favorite chronicle?
which one should I read next?
Are most chronicles tied with actual in game lore like this one? (if so I would love those more)

That's a hard one, but I think it's Methods Of Torture - The Minmatar

I guess you should start with the first one and read them all...

I quite like Cold Wind and the Caldari methods of torture.

In a few moments you will have an experience that will seem completely real. It will be the result of your subconscious fears transformed to your conscious awareness.

I think that all of the old Eve Chronicles in the old format were very impressive and few games can match that level of creativity. They made Eve lore on par with its technical brilliance.

I wish the Lore-Team would bring back the chronicle artwork. As IMHO it was the outstanding artwork that one see's upon initial loading of the page, that immediately catalyzes the immersion, setting the tone and atmosphere.

There's a saying where I'm from, Quality over Quantity. A couple of high quality+artwork chronicles per year is better than several mediocre postings. I'm hoping the devs see this as the case as well.

Another vote here for Cold Wind. I especially love the art work. You're looking at a very primitive Caldari society thousands of years ago (yet thousands of years in the future from the players' perspective). That's mind boggling. :)

You might enjoy this.. Its recordings of the chronicles. I know he appreciates any advice and requests for more chronicles to record.
The first ones are of a lower quality, but he changed his equipment so the last ones are more clear Smile
