I just reinvented myself (again) and noticed something different!

You are now actually able to play the game straight after your character is created! This reminded my of the old days with Achuras being miners and so on.

This is very good for the real newbies out there. Well done CCP!

Hope you enjoy it this time around.

You've also probably just triggered several people that are a bit butthurt about not receiving the skill points. So congrats on that too.

They can just.... Go away.

Aren't you supposed to BUY these things in the first place? Why should they be free for people already playing? I spent 5$ on my first month of EVE and got a shipping imicus and stuff out of it. This aint too far off. I got a deal and havn't stopped subscribing ever since so long as I have a paycheck.



I also cherished that Imicus till I lost it to a bunch of rats and forgot how the hell I even lost it later on.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Don't know why people keep saying this. I was able to play the game right after my Minmatar character was created over 7 years ago.

Instead of discrediting the old Aura NPE Tutorial with a false implication, just say you really like the new 'Opportunities' system and the increased amount of skillpoints for new characters.

I remember when I lost the rifter I got in the career missions. I've lost a lot of ships, but losing that particular ship was more heartbreaking than some of my billion ISK losses.
