EVE General Discussion

So I come back and apparently "EVE is dying" and I step outside the POS I left off at and the entire system is now in Russian. What is going on EVE? I feel like I was in cryo sleep this whole time and just woke up.

So what is the big things to happen? How have things changed since 2011?? Yes yes, I know, "a lot" but is there anything specific that's a big deal suddenly?

One thing to note, I was searching the internet to see how popular EVE is now a days before I came back in. But then I thought, if the player login rate is an issue, and I choose NOT to come back because there aren't as many players, don't I add to the problem? Well, here is to one more player back in. Now... like I said... can someone bring me up to speed??

It's not only in EVE, they took over... do you even go outside?

When i first came to null, Drone Regions and the south were solidly Russian, you you alliances like Against all authorities, Red Alliance, Red Alliance, White Noise etc etc that were heavily Russian/Eastern European and so on.

If anything, the game is significantly less Russian now than it was when I started playing. There are Russian groups my alliance skirmishes with nearby, but not like it used to be.
