I've started to play it. Overall, I think it's a brilliant game. My biggest criticism with it is that character development isn't that intuative.
For example, I thought I wanted to be a damage-dealing fighter. However, a 'tank' ended up being …
Blizzard must be making a huge amount of money and I'd have thought they could recruit good people. Therefore, I don't understand why they wouldn't have the time and expertise to do their usual polished job
I agree! This sort of thing is exactly why WoW is the best MMO - it's not just about combat. It's about a rich world that has time for things like character, humour and music etc etc
It depends on the context. For example, how many times have you done the starting areas? (Are you bored of them?). Has the game/story been designed to not have levels?
If you're bored of the starting areas, then perhaps there's a different way o…
Eve was really going places when the game's philosophy was to "be the best science fiction universe simulation". In those days, CCP was working towards 'walking in stations'.
Eve lost it when the philosophy changed to "it's all about the spaceships…
I like the combat system in Eve Online. However, I can't play that game anymore because its not really being developed any longer. Doing the same things all the time gets boring. The devs made too many bad decisions that wasted development time and …

Late to this comment party, but I've picked up and am in InDev for ND. It's great being back in Agon again. Always loved this world, and loved the concepts/ideals behind it. Aventurine created a great foundation for an Open-…

Typical CCP - no content that's good or new for 8 years - just gimmicks.
As soon as players can walk on temerate planets in Star Citizen or Elite: Dangerous, why bother with Eve?

All MMOs have a grind - I can't think of a single exception.
The trick is to find an MMO where the grind is enjoyable / worthwhile for you.
Contrary to what some people have posted above, Eve Online has 3 grinds! -
- the grind for ISK
- the tim…

However, what bothers me is Eve's single-minded focus on war.
That is your "single-minded focus", not the game...
I disagree. In Eve, your options are:
> Fight
> Mine to get supplies for…

I think CCP is in a tough position, they dont want to tick off their core players by making highsec a safer place but they also need to draw in some new blood. They have been losing players fairly steady since 2014.

Project Gorgon or Perpeteum, fallen Earth, UO if you havent tried it .. also Eldevin
I disagree with Perpetuum - it's based on Eve Online (it's a skill based system). In fact, it's even more boring because you have to t…

Hearthstone! Easy to play but very deep.
This is pretty shocking to read. As someone who has played a dozen or more different CCG's in depth since the early 90's, I found Hearthstone to be ver…
Hearthstone! Easy to play but very deep.
You could consider Elite: Dangerous. However, it might be a good idea to wait a year or two. I'd wait until you can walk on temperate planets - when that happens, it might be the only game you'll ever need t…
Eve Online
It should have developed into the game that Elite Dangerous is becoming - except with the additional option to have big multiplayer PvP battles (within a smaller universe).
CCP's original devs intended to do exactly this with Walking in …

Awesome question.
