Can EVE make your dreams come true? If so, which ones?

Hi.

So EVE is a massive and complex simulation with many positions of power— at least, power to greatly affect the game world.
Some people take the simulation very seriously and strive to better their strategic position.

I'm just wondering, could any amount of success in EVE make your dreams come true, and if so, which ones?

EVE mostly is a game about combat (either economical or military)— so do you believe besting opponents in conflicts to be a large part of what motivates you?
Or do you find you have other things you consider just as, or more important?

I've always had a secret desire to be a woman with grossly over-sized breasts.

EVE has allowed me to live that dream.

You know what I'm going to say...

Are you having dreams of becoming a warlord again?

Might not be exactly what you mean but thanks to EVE I got to experience things I would not have thought would ever happen before I started.

Learned to speak English, traveled to several countries, found my self on a plane for the first time, and moved across the globe.
And ended up getting married to a corp member just to top it all of Lol

And I can thank EVE for all of it.
I wouldn't have to learn to speak English if it was not for EVE, would not have gotten to know so many wonderful people all over the world that I could meet up with, and if it weren't for those people I would never have dared to set a foot on a plane.

And if it hadn't been for the fact that I'm a recruiter I would probably not be getting close to my 4 year wedding anniversary Big smile

So yea, EVE can make dreams come true, sometimes even dreams you didn't realize you had.

When I hit the accelerator in my car I always say in a sexy English voice, "Warp Drive Active".

ED: Now if I could just fit launchers to said car, but alas, it has no launcher hardpoints. Cry

What country are you from Night?

Do you believe it is realistic for everyone to think EVE has a high chance of granting them these experiences (because I would argue it's very unlikely indeed)?

So get some plate steel and add some hard points, in the real world you can be op. Your vehicle has as many rigg slots as you want, as many hi, med and low slots as you can fit in. No clones, so your not immortal so avoid irl concord at all costs.

Can it? Yes. Will it? Nope.

I have a dream about sandbox sci-fi game with 3rd person space combat and avatar interactions (shooting, zero-g exploration missions, alien NPCs and PCs, etc.).

The day you get a kickstarter to pay for your EVE subscription and to become a warlord is the day CCP opens that door in the captain's quarters.

I mine so you can have the fuel to run your POS.
