I played this game for nearly 10 years.

This one char is almost 7 year old.

i still get adrenaline rush and shaky hands in pvp sometimes. Why / because im about to lose my stuff.


I play alot of games, im a gamer true & true. what does eve give you over other games?

Most games = "Lame i died..." "omfg that guys hacking" "qq IMBA NOOB" "oh well i just re spawn anyway"

eve online = "omfg some guy is kicking my butt, and im about to lose my **** that i spent ages working hard for & actually required some effort & skill to gain it."


The downside of eve online is content.
Heres the problem, its a SANDBOX, what the shame is most people cry for sandbox's all the time,

"you know what would be cool? and online mmo where you can do anything!"

The truth is, most people do indeed get bored of eve within a month or so, why? They lack imagination.

Its a sandbox dude, nothing going to be handed to you on a silver platter, you need to create your own universe.


Your playing a game, where you can literally, do what ever you want, and your asking us what keeps the game interesting?

its you.

You mean you cant compete like you can against all levels in say wow?

In eve you have every chance to kill an older player, if they are badly fit, are not skill focused in the ship they are flying etc etc

other games, attacking a play just a few "levels" above or below is either impossible or a breeze - you'll find eve actually quite balanced and a smart low skill player CAN fight the vets.

Is it easy every time? hell no. But its FAR from impossible.
