So, what's the point of Eve's "End Game" material now?

So, that's it............

In the sense of achieving in Eve, it's "GAME OVER"

No matter how much teritory you hold, how much ISK / wealth you earn and have, or how many killmails you gain, no matter how famous / infamous you become, no matter how large the heist, no matter how much tears you extract, NO ONE will ever be able to surpass Somer's achievement.

Somer has effectively WON Eve, for they have achieved the ultimate.

Somer has managed to make real money off CCP's intelectual property and get away with doing so.

please get a less gross-looking forum alt.

It's currently in the making with EA AWOXing CCP and buying them out for a STO replacement.

What exactly is this 'end game' you speak of in EVE? I have never heard of it.

There is no end game.

The end game is realizing there is no end game.

The "game" is in not finding this out the hard way.

What's an “end game”? Sounds like something you contract from one of those lesser content-consumption based games…

The only end game in EVE is when you biomass yourself. Have a go and see.

Getting all the Incarna space doll accessories jammed onto one character no matter how terrible it looks. You're missing a few parts to win.

EVE's end game is when you are ice mining with 100 alts and then complaining there is a solo player with a retriever in your belt.

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?

Life sucks if you're looking too hard at the other guy instead of looking at what you can do.

The end-game goal is to set goals and achieve them. Want to fly a Tengu? wand to make your first billion isk? your first 100 billion first trillion? Want to have a POS .. want to have a POS that gets moo goo ? Want to rule a worm hole?

Want to have 6 alts doing PI everyday to make the highest tier materials in the most efficient and elegant manner (as a goal in itself)?

Want to get 1000 kill mails ? Want to be on (the winningside) of 100 strategic cruiser kill mails?

Go out and make a goal and achieve it and you've won EVE for the day.


If you want to be a dumb-ass and set a goal like. "i want to be better than anyone else in the whole world.. in everything" well here's to your happiness.

Eve has never had an "end game." Go back to WoW.

Fixed that for you.

its a forum alt. it has ONE job to do.

And that's to NOT distract people from the text of the OP with eyeball-melting-fuggliness.

I don't even know what this thread is about anymore.
