I've pretty much lost all interest in EvE. Not because of another game or real life. I'm just struggling to find something interesting to do ingame.

I've tried mining, mission running, wormhole life, piracy in various forms, scamming, trading, corp theft, nullsec life, ninja salvaging, can flipping, highsec ganking, planetary interaction, hauling, nullsec structure shooting (never again), ran a corp, manufacturing/industry, gas harvesting, scanning down sites, FC'ing, cap warfare, incursions, trolling, R-v-B, and running a lottery briefly.

I haven't tried faction warfare yet, but having my standings drop to kill-on-site with a faction is a deal breaker for me.

So what else is left? What aspect of gameplay is still there to try out?
I'm struggling to find a reason to even log in anymore. I've already canceled one account due to inactivity.

Take a break.

In a few months, you'll be back, ready to go with a new dose of impetus.

You hit the major ones. I am about to toss an ALT in Minmatar FW. Train Guild Wars 2 to LVL V?

Yeah, every time I join a corp/alliance in nullsec, I end up getting burned by crappy policies that were promised not to exist at the time of recruitment. I'm never going back to nullsec again. It may as well not even exist to me anymore.

Invention? And how about the new 3rd person exploration that is coming...? (Soon)

Epeen:  Behavior quite commonly found on online discussion boards or similar, where some loser tries to establish his superiority - and thus the merit of his or her opinion - by stating how skilled and awesome he or she is, rather than forming a sound argument. Generally also used to condescendingly refer to someones ego.

You know? I looked into invention... until I discovered that every station in high and low is full. And that I'd need my own POS just to have the option available. Nuts to that.

3rd person exploration sounds interesting, but it's currently a pipe dream. I doubt we'll see it this year or the next if it ever gets the green light at all. Sad




BTW, I have almost 2 billion ISK which means the acquisition of money is no longer a motivator. It's not as much as some other players, but I can afford pretty much anything that I want.

Isn't EVE already third-person?

That sounds kind of nifty.

Will there be giant jelly monsters lurking in corners, ready to leap out and suck our faces off?

If you have 2B ISK, you have just skimmed over the game. You seem to have given a quick loot to everything and made 2-3 things then declared you "did that feature". I think you ran too fast.

Content in EVE is largely player driven. At this point you should probably just un-sub.

Mining is going to be so much more exciting after tomorrow's patch, you should totally hang around and try that again.

Post with your monkey.

Your things...can I has?


But seriously. What is your main playstyle in EvE? Where do you live? Who do you play with?


If you PvE go do some PvP with a small gang. Move to a WH. Find some more friends/meatshields. Mix it up!
