EVE Fiction

"The EVElopedia also contains a significant amount of prime fiction and official backstory reference material that has been worked on by both CCP, and our fantastic ISD Mercury division. This will be relocated to a new home over the course of the next couple of months so that all players have read access to it, and ISD Mercury can continue to contribute to developing prime fiction and backstory for the EVE Universe. "

It's been well over a "couple of months", couple is usually taken to mean two, and this has now turned in to about 6-7 months with no status update on how this is going - or I've at least managed to either not see it, or amazingly forgot all about it.


Please excuse my lack of patience, I am just getting real tired of seeing the EVE's story department getting the shaft all the time year round.

Throw us a bone, please!

Nope. There's waaaaaaaaaaay more than that actually, but :CCP:
http://wiki.eve-inspiracy.com/index.php?title=Category:Lore hosts a partial backup.
Edit: It's a somewhat more complete backup now, and if you find any broken pages just mail the URL(s) to me and I'll fix them ASAP.

While I appreaciate your help in finding old stashes of lore, it would really warm my heart if CCP would actually inform us on whats the holdup and why? I can understand slight misscheduling, but this goes way beyond that. While I'm not happy about the snail's pace this is going, just a little heads up would make it a bit easier to understand and deal with.

You know, the sad story about this very subforum is that it is mostly dead. The stickies still point to the long gone evelopedia. There are very few threads per month... Why? What has happened?

+1 for some information from CCP

The silence on every one of these threads is very loud.

That's really swell, but for future reference, don't promise you'll do this in a couple of months if it takes you near or over a year to do it. I've asked this many times previously, but does CCP's leadership give a **** about the lore anymore?

Anything related to it seems to be so down the development importance ladder it makes one think really hard that they just don't care.

E: I realize you didn't write the dev blog, so this is not aimed at your specifically. And once again I don't blame the few devs working on the story department on anything either, I'm sure they're doing what they can with the little resource they have. I'm just getting super frustrated on how badly the story side of this game gets treated, and I'm probably not the only one.

Ahhh... Now this is a true gem to have... Thank you.

I know something even better (subjective) http://wiki.eve-inspiracy.com/index.php?title=Main_Page

Well it's anniverary for the blog post, I hope I'm not being too presumptous to assume the death of the wiki turns a year old before we have a working lore wiki again.

Wait, damn, it was a leap year! They technically have 4 years to do it now!
