Eve is a lot like marmite and not to everyones taste also if you recommend it to someone they may not like you for doing it. So, I tend not to recommend Eve to most people unless I know what they are interested in. Eve is a much more strategic and planning oriented game and as a result can be very boring for those looking for a more exciting game experience. This is not to say that Eve can't be exciting but it mostly isn't. The community in Eve also can be very opinionated and as long as you basically agree with them you will get along fine but if you disagree or question conventional wisdom then you are likely to be insulted and flamed and generally called a noob without a clue but they are passionate about their game and while you are in game there is a lot of chat and people around to talk to. Eve is a very social game.
But, there is a free trial for Eve and if you are intrested you should download it and give it a try and see what you think.
Fallen Earth would only be mentioned in the same breath because there is some sort of science fiction link as it is a much different game.
In my opinion they both suck, Eve is nothing but playing with spread sheets and clicking menu's with little to no gameplay, and fallen earth is just bland overall with boring combat and quests badly done animation and horridly bland enviroments, not to mention how laggy it is. I'd honestly save your money for a much better mmo in 2010. Tons of f2p mmorpgs out there that are far better than Eve and FE.
Both very good games. the setting of Fallen Earth (ie post apocalyptic) wasnt my type of thing, otherwise I would probably still be playing it. Eve is a very solid game, though the PVE isnt the best in the world. If I had to choose either, it would be Fallen Earth, simply for the reason that I dont like the fact that you can buy pretty much whatever you want in Eve for RL money.
Not exactly a valid arguement because the ability to buy your way up occurs in nearly EVERY game on the market. P2P, F2P, it doesn't matter. If it isn't the game developers providing you with the ability to do so, it is a third party selling uberness.
EVE or FE? I say take the best of both worlds and just go balls to the wall and sub to DFO, that's if you think you're hardcore enough
WTF is it with DF players?? You could post that you are looking for a game with heavy crafting and pretty ponies and some DF player would post that you need to play DF becuase it is "the uber and all else is wussy suxxor"
EVE is far more hard core then FE and FE is 5 times more hardcore then DF!

Try Star War Galaxies , its got ground combat like Fallen Earth, and Flight combat like EvE.
...don't forget to mention it's not even half the game it used to be. =P
Check out the MUD I'm making!
