In case you are unaware, Goblin Works the maker of Pathfinder Online is headed up by a former CCP employee (Ryan Dancey). Dancey left, safe to say, not on the best of terms with a number of EvE players. He is now the CEO of Goblin Works and has been building an MMO that he claims is based on a lot of the systems found here in EVE.

Essentially, he has screwed the pooch with trying to balance between PVE and PVP, and the PVP is pratically non existent. Although they claim to be an Open World PVP Sandbox, I don;t believe he understands the meaning of any of those words. When he says he wants to attract EVE players, he has no clue what he is really asking for.

I have 18 beta keys, good for a 15 day trial. But, what I ask for in exchange is that of the three characters you can create, you dedicate at least one of them to Non Consensual PVP that will tank that character's reputation (limit his skill training), but I assure you... You will have a blast harvesting care bear tears, and adding a sense of danger to this otherwise soulless game.

Yes, in just 15 days we can show the Devs of PFO how much their game truly needs Non Consensual PVP, perpetrated by hardcore killers from EvE Online.

If you are interested, send me a PM here and include your email so I can send you a key. You can also contact me via Bluddwolf@gmail.com or the UnNamed Gaming Community at http://unnamedcompany.guildlaunch.com

Again, I'm looking for hardcore PVPers who want to send a message. Open World PVP means, PVP anywhere and versus anyone.

A man would see you leave these forums and this game, never to return. This man would also say he suspects you are under the employ of Goblin Works.

The game seems rather interesting.
He is building something; I am not going to help you with some petty grudge.

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

Fantasy ugh no thanks.

We need more scifi, cyberpunk etc mmos rather than another fantasy one.

He was a schmuck when he worked for TSR, too.

Anyway, no thank you for reminding me of Ryan Dancey and his dubious game.

You should post this on the Something Awful forums, this is exactly what (some) of them live for.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

You want to know what immorality in EVE Online looks like? Look no further than Ripard "Jester" Teg.

Uh-oh, Pathfinder Online is all but dead:

  • Ryan Dancey has had to resign from the company for personal reasons (Lisa Stevens will be acting CEO)

  • Finances are tight at Goblinworks, which has resulted in the layoff of the majority of Goblinworks staff

  • CTO Mark Kalmes, Art Director Mike Hines, and Designer Bob Settles continue to push the game forward (your monthly subscriptions are what keep these three employed and the server up)

  • Goblinworks is in talks with multiple game publishers to take the game on and bring it to Open Enrollment


(...)


Ryan Dancey: anyone knows which was his CCP dev name? Question
