EVE is much too expensive too play.
Even if you decide to buy game time for a whole year its still still to high $10.95 a month.
The game is slow in many ways, slow in getting anywhere slow in training skills, slow in achieving a goal that brings you faster/enough ISK.
For only this the price is much to high and you need to waste a lot human real time on this, and still have nothing to show.

EVE is unlike other MMOs and for sure does not appeal to everyone. Those who enjoy challenge however like this game. Also, much of your success depends on factors not part of the game mechanics, such as patience, forethought, ability to adapt and tackle problems you face. If you don't like playing games on ultra hard mode, this might not be your thing.

What especially makes me love this game is the feeling of actually accomplishing something when you do. Victory as well as defeat has more weight behind it cause it did not come "easy".

Also, this game thruly shines when you play it with others.


What were you expecting from this game when you joined? Had you read about it how its unique from other MMOs?

3. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

19. New player bashing will not be tolerated.

New members of the EVE Online community are encouraged to use, but are not restricted to the EVE New Citizens Q&A forum. This forum is specifically designed to provide a platform for those who are new to the EVE community to ask questions and learn more about EVE. More experienced forum users are encouraged to participate by assisting new players with helpful and courteous responses.

If you would like to discuss the price of EVE vs the quality you get feel free to open a civil thread over in GD.
