HaHa, my original in game born on date (early 2005 now, original account unrecoverable) I never found a corp that fit me, so back to the streets with me....
Funny cos its so true and must be acknowledged we have more than a few in eve. Having a thick skin and survival instinct of 100 people put together is a must in this game to survive and last the long run.
I heard this about Eve a while back: "Eve is like being a small child walking through a park at night filled with child molesters." After having played it for a while, I find this description highly accurate.
The only reason you have "friends" in EVE is because you don't have anything of value worth killing you over yet. There are people who will be your best buddy for months, then one day they'll just up and kill you, take everything, insult you, and laugh as they warp away leaving your cold corpse floating in a cloud of twisted metal and debris. As a bonus, some will even post videos about it. EVE has often been called "spreadsheets in space". That'd only be true if spreadsheets could murder you in cold blood.
@@silvercat18 this is true in some corps but groups like Karmafleet, Pandemic Horde, and Brave Newbies are really good at welcoming people and we (in Karmafleet) genuinely engage as friends to those we recruit. Ive played since '03 and the community ive worked with as a trainer is why I play.
Xyrus That is actually fucking awesome... call me a sadomasochist, but I love the thrill of the risk, and you know what. If you can plot, strategies and deceit for 3 months, at that point you’ve deserved it!
Sort of, yes. Though I will always argue, is a clone really you, just because it has your memories? Or is it just a full grown test tube baby with an injected persona? I don't think it is true resurrection. That is where the soul comes in. This is more like afflicting the living with a clone of you after you're dead and gone.
Heres my quote. "EVE Online is a game where you feel like trying to control a space ship in real life for the first time not knowing a shit about each button."
You misspelled Star Citizen or Elite. I played Eve and "controlling" your ship war just "orbit", "keep at range", "approach", "warp to" so much "controlling" , and double click in space
I played Eve for 7 years. Been part of very memorable things, like the first Great War, that lasted over a year. In the end, I stopped when I realised that pvp didn't pump me up with adrenaline anymore, and losing a ship only made me think about the logistics of buying and moving another.
as a relatively new player you learn quickly that tormenting you is how the older players have fun.the game design and mechanics compel you into low security space where the older player wait.i was killed 4 times today.since my skill points make it a mathematical impossibility to win an engagement i no longer equipment my ships with guns.just insure your ships to the max and make money everytime youre killed.in the last 2 weeks ive been killed 23 times.give a crap factor is zero
@@andrewpinkham9904 You don't give enough details to identify your problem, but you're obviously doing something very wrong. It could be your autopilot not being set to avoid low-sec systems, or you choosing a pve agent near low-sec space, or you deciding to play in a high-sec area surrounded by low-sec... The game does NOT force you to play in low-sec areas. It only offer slightly greater rewards for doing so.
@@shadowsword8 my problem is i need the isogen found in lowsec so i have to provide an easy target for older players.To do any tier 2 reactions i have to go to lowsec.the programmers did this intentionally so that im content/easy kill for waiting older players.i just put another 80 ventures into the production que.ill drop another 100 miner ones tonight.kill me i couldnt careless.ill make 130k from insurance and you might get one or 2 miner ones.youll get nothing from the cruisers but some gob1s.ill get 5 million plus.i didnt say force i said compel
Ugh..played for almost six years. Realized I had to stop when I found myself triple boxing to blitz through L4s. For a game, Eve has the potential to be horribly stressful, and a real obsession. I both miss it, and don't miss it.
Yep, after quad-boxing my Rorqual mining/indy fleet it just became too much like a second job. However, the game is so far ahead of it's time and honestly, I rather enjoyed the folks who played. I still love EVE with all my gaming soul. I also hate it. Greatest game I ever quit playing.
Hey, I triple box L4 missions on occasion. Make more money incursioning like P SD said, but L4 missions on my own are a fun way to relax when not doing that. ;)
I was genuinely depressed for a while when my Corp fell apart and disbanded. Years later when I sold everything and left. I had a nyx for several years and never lost it. Sold it off and they got it blown up a week later.
i left the game for half a year after my (owned by me) corp left basically all it's members and it threw me into deppression. got back recently, and the people who were in my corp and left just welcomed me so warmly, no hard feelings, they just hated my "trying to impose a system" approach. now i'm back in the game, trying to find the right balance between mine "we need a system" and theirs "whatever the fuck, lol" approaches.
In 2010 I lost my Caldari Raven Navy Issue in low sec and rage quit for 11 years. Now I'm playing it again because it's such a beautiful and complicated game.
@@Tkieron yesterday i shoot down a miner. He said gf he just looking for some kernite (isogen moved to low sec only recently) l. I told him sorry, he replied it is ok, pvp is part of the game. Suprised how well he received the loss, and we talked a little, told him how I found him, and tld him tips, how to avoid truble. Back then I was too very devastated over losing a ship, but these people showed me much better mental. It kinda changed me in general.
not really. it's technically trivial to even connect the mobile client to the very same main eve servers, the only reason that's not been done is that it wouldn't be fair to PC players due to all the UI shortcuts the mobile version had to take to fit on the screen. in fact, it would be easier to connect the mobile client to the same servers that PC client uses, it's a magnitude more difficult to setup separate servers for mobile which are "the same universe, same size, and same server system"
This is an excellent overview explanation! I just hit my 10 year anniversary in Eve and I'm still learning. If you like science fiction and MMOs, you will never find a better game.
I'm a 45 yo grown up man, father of 3 beautiful kids with a leading job in the IT industry. i considered myself has a reasonable person from the top middle class average (considering my salary). EVE is the only game that make me cry... on 1 occasion, at my beginning (after 1 year of play). I didn't cry on others instances after but i remember my heart race like crazy as if i had a car accident. Don't judge me lol
45 yo grown man with a family and job in IT. Why the hell do you waste you limited time on this planet by sitting by the computer in your free time? Why don't you move your body? How do you think it will look and feel after another 10 years without sport?
@@mareksykora5197 A perfect example of a hasty judgment. But that made me smile because unfortunately for you (and luckily for me lol) i am the exact opposite of your portrait full of stereotype. It is true that I am not sporty. Neither salon nor team or game. I have been a regular of trainning for over 25 years. I train in the gym 4 days a week in cardio and muscle mode. I would not describe my body or my physical abilities, but they are very close to the one we can imagine of a man who has taken his physical and psychological health seriously for years. Psychological because for more than 3 years now I meditate meticulously every day for 30 minutes .... or almost (in holidays with my children it is sometimes difficult to find even a small 30 minutes of freedom) Peace :)
no other games have been even close to give me the adrenaline rush ive felt in this game. you know you have a special game, when you find your self in a situation where your hearth going like crazy, and you shaking so badly you barely can hit any of the buttons with your mouse. crazy difficult to learn, but allso highly rewarding, best game ive ever played for sure
I’m naturally a homebody so it’s rather easy for me to drop a full shift worth of hours into a game like this. I don’t really do much else on my off time. But that’s me. I can understand why some people wouldn’t touch this game with a 10 foot pole
eh, if you have fun the time you're playing it's worth every second. What else you gonna do, play a different videogame? If you have free/laze time, might as well hit up some Eve.
@@johanderuiter9842 If you don't remember your fights then you aren't playing a game to it's fullest. I remember every big event in gaming that has occurred to me. Maybe some people need to do memory exercises...
I honestly love hearing about EVE and find it's universe fascinating, both it's canonical lore an player created stories Actually playing it though requires a very certain mindset that I just don't have.
It is most certainly an aquired taste, that I can confirm. For Most folks, it requires that you find a good bunch of folks to form/join a corp with and faff about together. It's not so bad then.
It is both alluring and intimidating. I am constantly caught between wanting to join this collective of sadistic, psychopathic accountants, and wanting to run away in the opposite direction while shrieking in sheer terror.
As a “Care Bear” I resent being called a Care Bear just because I prefer mining, feeding the economy, provide resources for ships for fighter jocks and essentially keep the universe alive! 😂😂😂
@@antimatter7337 that's not how you feed economy. get a university "Economy 101" course to understand why what you said is the precise opposite of how you feed the economy and keep it running.
lolnope. dude. i'm just a lowly subcontractor but I already have about 50% of the technical design in my head that would be required for actual Oasis. give it 5 more years and someone will release an actual VR Oasis ;)
This game really intrigued and interested me. I mostly played regular RPGs being my favourite genre, but due to lack of proper resources growing up I missed out on MMORPGs that always fascinated me. Playing games like this growing up would have been such a fun and learning experience..
Here's a little fun fact.. there are 5201 solar systems in EvE online 1090 highsec.. 817 lowsec... And 3294 nullsec which is 60% of solar systems in EvE .. only 16% of players live in nullsec and its divided up by just a little over 150 alliances.. 👍
I have been playing this since the beta on and off...I still think it is probably the best game ever made on any platform. There isn't anything else like it.
Which is most likely the secret of its longevity. I can’t help but wonder how a fantasy setting MMORPG could be created with the same elements that make EVE what it is. Well, on the most basic level that would just be ‘everything is procedurally generated, PvP isn’t optional, and all Drops are Vendor Trash and/or Crafting Materials’, but the catch is figuring out how to _implement_ those ideas in a manner that people enjoy enough to throw money at you every month for it.
3 words describes EVE. Spreadsheets in space. Like literally. I played for 14 years and my PC documents is filled with spreadsheets I made for the game. Beautiful game. Market system was amazing. I never liked the non FPS style of flying though. There was no real exploration in the game. Sure there were lots of places you could go to, but you couldn't really interact with any of it other than asteroid belts. If you want exploration, play Elite Dangerous. Best space exploration game I've ever played(still play it). I did everything in EVE. Built ships, played the market, was part of several of the best pvp alliances and territorial alliances in the history of EVE(MC/BoB/NC./Pandemic, etc.), explored worm holes for a couple years. Ran an entire station infrastructure network for an alliance. I still have a logged off mothership that's been floating in Delve for about 3 years now. Some of the best gaming years of my life. The only thing I never accomplished was owning a titan. I was there the day the game went live...
I cant help but think ,i've been a part of this ,some way some how. Being i've had vivid dreams ,visions and so on of being a highly skilled fighter pilot leading over many others ,with highly sought after skills. My name is ,or was Indigo Eagle. I had put in so much battle time and won and concurred so much I was able to retire. Just recently ,some have been trying to coax me out of my retirement due to my high level of expertise. Very -AMAZING? That I stumbled upon this ,what seems to be the mere origins of my very real visions and dreams for quit a while now.
alt = free stuff like alt miners u have one ship decked with mining stuff and one ship with high ore hold cap u jettison the ore and get it with the other ship when that ship is full u warp to somewhere and store the ore the storage ship usually has modules that increase warp if u do decide to use this make sure to watch both so u don't get killed
I started EVE 6 months after launch in 2003 ... Been here ever since and I still don't understand half of it lol. It's unique. Have made some good friends through it ... I'll be here another 17 years hopefully :-)
@@jisuberries oh well... that also happens. usually to people who expect having a fun singleplayer experience in the only game in the world which ACTUALLY IS MASSIVELY-MULTIPLAYER. (as in: the experience is designed such that it requires you to interact with other people, as opposed to just giving you the option) the game is not about the game. the game in itself is actually a boring slog. the game is about the people you meet and talk to in the game, and about the stuff you do with them. it's a chatroom with a game on top of it as a bonus.
Having played for nearly a year, I'd say that summarizes it well. Nice job :) I will say to those who haven't played that a culture war is an extraordinarily gross understatement. The mind games are as intricate as real world politics and I love it. I am curious though, where's the audio of the screaming fc?
in 10 years i'm going to be like you because the main reason i stop playing a game is when i realize "okay, i understand your mechanics and how they interact", which makes me bored of the game.
...most unusual, as well as most accurate and well-explained description of what EVE is about, at its core. (most unusual for me in the meaning that most videos of this kind i've seen about eve were either at loss to explain, or focused on the mechanical features and didn't notice the actual core dynamics, didn't see forest for the trees (and shrubbery)... and this one is the first that ignores all of that crap and just describes the forest itself so well)
Please do not forget that according to lore, for example an Abbadon Amarr battleship has in addition to the capsuleer about 3000 souls on board which perish when the ship gets destroyed..
Thanks for making this video, was super helpful understanding some of the background. I just started playing and so far it's a huge learning curve for me, but fun. I figure I'll just take my time doing random stuff until I understand what I prefer doing and what kind of corporation I should join.
@@JonnDuune Atleast part of it is military grade hardware. They needed military clearance just to go into a bunker in Texas to look at it. It was made for the US Army.
That is way way way way wrong. It is the largest computer used for entertainment purposes on earth. Supercomputers used for things like nuclear physics and weather simulations are orders of magnitude more powerful.
i was the same. the thing is - eve gave me lessons which real life was probably also giving me but on a different timescale (and lower level of engagement), so for me, eve was (and still is) a(lso) a self-reflection tool that helps me improve my actual real life. but many players get weirded out when I explain it, so maybe it doesn't apply to you.
Best part of EvE is the community and by so much content generated by players in forms of tools, strategies, doctrines for ships and straight up guides, you can achieve many amazing objectives. The only downside is that the giant universe and sandbox posibilities makes it accessible only to those that understand the way your character progresses, the value of planning ahead and sticking to the plan.
I'm interested in starting eve online today so i looked up a video and found this. This video helped me a lot to understand how the game is since all i have seen are ads about the game. Hope to see you in game sometime 😊😊
The commitment required feels vast if you want to achieve anything large. I mean what did those guys who fought in the Fountain War do for a living irl that allowed them to drop everything for a massive in game space battle?
Yes.. my reaction exactly. People that wish to just be left alone and have a good time are shamed in Eve. Pretty much in a nutshell why I left. The entire set of sociopathic misfits that play the game think like this: 'my way or the highway'. Yes.. I know there are nice people playing eve.. but they are SUCH a minority. And.. just so everyone understands.. I play games to get away from bad human behavior. If I want to experience bad human behavior, I get up in the morning and go to work.
@@rbarnes4076 bruh, as someone who likes station trading, mining, industry, etc... I think we played a different game... Or this could be a case of "If everywhere you go it stinks, maybe it's you who needs a shower." I dont even see it as an insult to be honest, and I think everyone knows that without the "carebears" eve would stop
that can be replaced with: mining and crafting - factorio, satisfactory, (any other similar game) station trading - forex, crypto currencies. look ma, no MMO, no need to deal with internet drama over pixels in computer game.
@@rbarnes4076 Once you realize that even them need ships to build to do their peeveepee , you realize they cannot play without those carebears.. Besides there are plenty of people in Eve that don't work don't have a social life that do all... I love to mine...i was also alliance diplomat...also capital ship pilot in Goonswarm, and i flew with Garmon and did pvp. So what am i? A retired, dangerous carebear that can bite back in more ways then one, a politician sometimes chilling in wormhole space loaded with ISK.
Not a gamer, randomly discovered eve online while searching for possible character names and wanted to know more...thanks for the informative video. One of the reasons I never got into video games as a kid was the fact that you had to follow a predefined path and levels and couldn't explore the game world. Eve online sounds like a game you could get lost in, if you even survive in the first place... I'm intrigued but also kind of terrified 😮

@@DarkVeghetta I think I had a look at it but never signed up. My internet is so slow I don't think I'd get anywhere with it. But your comment brought the game back to mind, I might actually set up an account now.. do you play EvE?
@@fruitytarian I first started ~11.5 years ago, then stopped for ~7 years, back at it for 2.5 years, last year I didn't play, and just a few weeks ago I bought a half-year subscription. It's been great to get back into the swing of things. I've been doing a lot of Project Discovery lately, some light trading and ratting, and plan on going back to exploration when I can get my Amarr character back to his proper HQ, some 20 jumps to the celestial south. Heck, I've never lived in low-sec or null, never looted a wormhole, didn't really pvp... there's a LOT I still haven't touched upon in EvE, even with ~3.5 years of actually playing the game. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them to the best of my ability.
@@DarkVeghetta I have so many questions haha. The more I look into the game, the more questions I have... are high/ low/ null sec like levels that you work up to after a certain number of points or could I (theoretically) sign up tomorrow and jump straight to null-sec?
Funny how the best and most relaxing time in EVE for me was being in the NPC corp you default into when leaving a corp and just chugging along in there. No wars, no BS, no forced PVP. Joining a corp can be fine if you find people who you get along with and have the same goals. Anything above that like an alliance is pretty much paying monthly for a game for people to tell you want to do all the time. Other than being able to fly a big ship anything out of high sec is pretty boring and supringly uneventful. To those who don't know going into low or null security space is usually system after system of empty space.
Exactly! Most large Corps in Eve are absolute cancer to the new player. Stay in an NPC Corp until you find out what you like to do and play and do what you want to do when you want to do it. You will have a lot more fun learning the game than being under the thumb of a large Corp.
change your approach. it's not a game, not a thing you can learn and understand as a whole and therefore win. it's world you go into to chill and have a good time and try stupid stuff in. but mainly it's a world to be in, enjoying the vibe and events and people. i had this same experience as you the first time i tried, and on top of that, boredom came very quickly. that was 4 years ago, then I had a 1year gap, tried again, by complete accident found a great corp, and suddenly it all started making sense :) once again: it's a world. it's not tailored for you to be "the chosen one". it's tailored for you to be "one, who will maybe decide to become the regional chosen one and in a few years of consistent play, he'll maybe even achieve it"
you don't log into eve to "finish this quest", you log into eve to be in that world and with those people. in the meantime you occasionally finish some quest or make some money, so that you can fit the ship to be in the eve world and with those people better. today, i logged in for an hour, didn't even undock from a station because i was too lazy to babysit my miner, and too lazy to actually do something that requires attention, i just sat there, watching what my buddies are chatting about, occasionally chiming in, lazily thinking about my plans to become a wormhole industry magnate XD it's not about what the game gives you, because basically it gives you nothing. it's about what the game enables you to do, because basically it enables you to do anything that makes sense relative to its setting. if you're looking for a game that will entertain you, look elsewhere. if you're looking for a game that will provide you with a huge directionless space in which you can entertain yourself in countless ways, welcome to Eve.
@@MidnightSt thanks for the detailed answer. I never looked to Eve as a game that one could finish or where i would be the chosen one. As you said, that wouldnt be the point, wich i understand cause i had before hand the expectation that it is rather player driven (the game). I probably just need some time where i can invest more time into it: Mainly my problem was the unability to get a grip on the mechanics such as proper flying and shooting. But anyway, thanks^^
You forgot the most valuable commodity in EVE is trust !! This why small corps can thrive in the right spots in New Eden. Then get war decked and extorted. And realize you have to give that moon base up because they are bigger or far more skilled than you It's still cool ! In that affair I got a free help me ticket but who knows if that would be honored. Either way I made enough to skill up characters buy ships even make money on plex. However it does take a while.
I’ve always been interested by multiplayer sandbox games and the endless possibilities that our universe provides, so this is probably the closest game to a perfect game in my opinion. However, looking through the videos related to Eve, I’m beginning to wonder if I really have the time and effort to develop and achieve my goals in this game. I’ve been a FPS player for quite a while and maybe I’m not ready for this kind of intensity yet. I think the future me will probably pick up this game and I hope he doesn’t regret it, because some dreams are meant to be dreams.
Ive played for the first time a few years ago. It was all fun until I learned about Plesk. Just dropping in a few bucks saves you hundreds of hours of time in game of trying to acquire ISK. So I did that then all my goals were null and void, no need to mine, explore, rat or gank. You have everything you want. So then the game is instantly boring to me. Dear Eve, make a new server and remove Plesk and have subscriptions just like WoW! Cheating makes the game boring.
@@Xalerdane I tried that, you just feel behind everyone who is dumping money into plex and buying skills and ships. It just turns the game into a pay to play, takes the fun out of it for me.
Ive been searching for this game since the first time i touched a computer… i have finally found it by pure chance… most certainly the beginning of a new era for me

A few years back I did played the game for a while. I was happily being a 'carebear' when suddenly I was attack. At that time I thought that a NPC ship attacked me. Now I know I was wrong.
Like the scams Spaceship Barbi pulled off in Amarr trading station, or undock ganking by a swarm of cheap T1 destroyers..... Ahhh those good ol days :)

Thank you for your insights, liked your video a lot. I had difficulties to understand the reason, why it's such a successful game. Especially when I read news that ***** amount of time is eradicated in a (for me) silly personal war. But I am grasping now thanks your video. One instance is indeed gigantic. But as a dedicated ED player I think you have nothing so cool like our fuel rats / hull seals. Even if I never needed their support so far. Feel often like a small boy looking up to them.
I don't understand how my PC can't handle Minecraft at a smooth fps but it can handle me traveling through space, jumping solar system by solar system, taking in the info of planets and much more.
Yep and right there is a prime example of the toxic sewer rats that have infested Eve Online. Here’s some cheese Drukenguitargyuy you made my point beautifully lol. o7
Xlaminator I did not say do not play the game, my point was that is why so many leave the game because of the toxic elitist know it alls in the game. He could of gave the answer but no he had to be toxic and add be an adult not a pathetic child. I have thousands of hours logged in Eve and yes it is the most immersive game I have ever played after decades of gaming. My main beef is not the game but the toxic community that thinks it’s their job to run all the new players off. And I am sick of it and so are a lot of other long time players.
i actually like watching videos on eve and what can be done rather than being involved in the actual game itself, it all sounds so amazing but videos and streams just look boring very interesting though, it really is

I heard this about Eve a while back:
"Eve is like being a small child walking through a park at night filled with child molesters."
After having played it for a while, I find this description highly accurate.
The only reason you have "friends" in EVE is because you don't have anything of value worth killing you over yet. There are people who will be your best buddy for months, then one day they'll just up and kill you, take everything, insult you, and laugh as they warp away leaving your cold corpse floating in a cloud of twisted metal and debris. As a bonus, some will even post videos about it.
EVE has often been called "spreadsheets in space". That'd only be true if spreadsheets could murder you in cold blood.

The game does NOT force you to play in low-sec areas. It only offer slightly greater rewards for doing so.

Ugh..played for almost six years. Realized I had to stop when I found myself triple boxing to blitz through L4s. For a game, Eve has the potential to be horribly stressful, and a real obsession. I both miss it, and don't miss it.
Triple boxing? Hah I sometimes 6-boxed in incursion fleets to max out payout when numbers were low.
A friend of mine lost two semesters
Yep, after quad-boxing my Rorqual mining/indy fleet it just became too much like a second job. However, the game is so far ahead of it's time and honestly, I rather enjoyed the folks who played. I still love EVE with all my gaming soul. I also hate it. Greatest game I ever quit playing.
Hey, I triple box L4 missions on occasion. Make more money incursioning like P SD said, but L4 missions on my own are a fun way to relax when not doing that. ;)
@BigHeadAstro Exactly. Maintaining Skyrim, mods, patches, updates, bugs, and glitches, I finally
after all these years gave it up.
I was genuinely depressed for a while when my Corp fell apart and disbanded. Years later when I sold everything and left. I had a nyx for several years and never lost it. Sold it off and they got it blown up a week later.
i left the game for half a year after my (owned by me) corp left basically all it's members and it threw me into deppression.
got back recently, and the people who were in my corp and left just welcomed me so warmly, no hard feelings, they just hated my "trying to impose a system" approach.
now i'm back in the game, trying to find the right balance between mine "we need a system" and theirs "whatever the fuck, lol" approaches.
Can i hab your stuff?
In 2010 I lost my Caldari Raven Navy Issue in low sec and rage quit for 11 years. Now I'm playing it again because it's such a beautiful and complicated game.
@@Tkieron yesterday i shoot down a miner. He said gf he just looking for some kernite (isogen moved to low sec only recently) l.
I told him sorry, he replied it is ok, pvp is part of the game.
Suprised how well he received the loss, and we talked a little, told him how I found him, and tld him tips, how to avoid truble.
Back then I was too very devastated over losing a ship, but these people showed me much better mental.
It kinda changed me in general.
The fact that this huge game is coming to mobile with the same universe size and same server system is really amazing
not really. it's technically trivial to even connect the mobile client to the very same main eve servers, the only reason that's not been done is that it wouldn't be fair to PC players due to all the UI shortcuts the mobile version had to take to fit on the screen.
in fact, it would be easier to connect the mobile client to the same servers that PC client uses, it's a magnitude more difficult to setup separate servers for mobile which are "the same universe, same size, and same server system"
This is an excellent overview explanation! I just hit my 10 year anniversary in Eve and I'm still learning. If you like science fiction and MMOs, you will never find a better game.

no other games have been even close to give me the adrenaline rush ive felt in this game. you know you have a special game, when you find your self in a situation where your hearth going like crazy, and you shaking so badly you barely can hit any of the buttons with your mouse. crazy difficult to learn, but allso highly rewarding, best game ive ever played for sure
I spend thousands of hours in eve from the age of 14 to 21. AMAZING game conceptually, but not worth the hours of your life that it requires.
I’m naturally a homebody so it’s rather easy for me to drop a full shift worth of hours into a game like this. I don’t really do much else on my off time. But that’s me. I can understand why some people wouldn’t touch this game with a 10 foot pole

I honestly love hearing about EVE and find it's universe fascinating, both it's canonical lore an player created stories
Actually playing it though requires a very certain mindset that I just don't have.
It is most certainly an aquired taste, that I can confirm. For Most folks, it requires that you find a good bunch of folks to form/join a corp with and faff about together. It's not so bad then.
It is both alluring and intimidating.

This game really intrigued and interested me. I mostly played regular RPGs being my favourite genre, but due to lack of proper resources growing up I missed out on MMORPGs that always fascinated me. Playing games like this growing up would have been such a fun and learning experience..
Here's a little fun fact.. there are 5201 solar systems in EvE online 1090 highsec.. 817 lowsec... And 3294 nullsec which is 60% of solar systems in EvE .. only 16% of players live in nullsec and its divided up by just a little over 150 alliances.. 👍
There are 7805 systems in EVE
I have been playing this since the beta on and off...I still think it is probably the best game ever made on any platform. There isn't anything else like it.
Which is most likely the secret of its longevity.
I can’t help but wonder how a fantasy setting MMORPG could be created with the same elements that make EVE what it is.
Well, on the most basic level that would just be ‘everything is procedurally generated, PvP isn’t optional, and all Drops are Vendor Trash and/or Crafting Materials’, but the catch is figuring out how to _implement_ those ideas in a manner that people enjoy enough to throw money at you every month for it.
This is exactly what I dream of when it comes to the ultimate game. Too bad that I just know I don't have the time or patience for it.
3 words describes EVE. Spreadsheets in space. Like literally. I played for 14 years and my PC documents is filled with spreadsheets I made for the game. Beautiful game. Market system was amazing. I never liked the non FPS style of flying though. There was no real exploration in the game. Sure there were lots of places you could go to, but you couldn't really interact with any of it other than asteroid belts. If you want exploration, play Elite Dangerous. Best space exploration game I've ever played(still play it). I did everything in EVE. Built ships, played the market, was part of several of the best pvp alliances and territorial alliances in the history of EVE(MC/BoB/NC./Pandemic, etc.), explored worm holes for a couple years. Ran an entire station infrastructure network for an alliance. I still have a logged off mothership that's been floating in Delve for about 3 years now. Some of the best gaming years of my life. The only thing I never accomplished was owning a titan. I was there the day the game went live...
Holy shit man
But yeah what I was interested in was exploration, the fact that that isn't there here is what makes me not pick it up
I cant help but think ,i've been a part of this ,some way some how. Being i've had vivid dreams ,visions and so on of being a highly skilled fighter pilot leading over many others ,with highly sought after skills. My name is ,or was Indigo Eagle. I had put in so much battle time and won and concurred so much I was able to retire. Just recently ,some have been trying to coax me out of my retirement due to my high level of expertise. Very -AMAZING? That I stumbled upon this ,what seems to be the mere origins of my very real visions and dreams for quit a while now.
You left out half of those thousand players are just alts
alt = free stuff
like alt miners
u have one ship decked with mining stuff
and one ship with high ore hold cap
u jettison the ore and get it with the other ship
when that ship is full u warp to somewhere and store the ore
the storage ship usually has modules that increase warp
if u do decide to use this make sure to watch both so u don't get killed

How are you finding it out of curiosity ?

Just started playing. I just keep clicking anything that comes up in the screen. 😂
thats a good way to get scammed or get your stuff blown up.
@@pivkemrzli2297 already deleted it 😂
that's a good way to learn... at a price...
@@jisuberries oh well... that also happens. usually to people who expect having a fun singleplayer experience in the only game in the world which ACTUALLY IS MASSIVELY-MULTIPLAYER. (as in: the experience is designed such that it requires you to interact with other people, as opposed to just giving you the option)
the game is not about the game. the game in itself is actually a boring slog.
the game is about the people you meet and talk to in the game, and about the stuff you do with them.
it's a chatroom with a game on top of it as a bonus.
Having played for nearly a year, I'd say that summarizes it well. Nice job :)
I will say to those who haven't played that a culture war is an extraordinarily gross understatement. The mind games are as intricate as real world politics and I love it.

I just got an eve ad on this video. (10/10 youtube marketing)
I've been playing for 14 years and I still don't understand it all. However, 14 years should say a lot.
in 10 years i'm going to be like you because the main reason i stop playing a game is when i realize "okay, i understand your mechanics and how they interact", which makes me bored of the game.
...most unusual, as well as most accurate and well-explained description of what EVE is about, at its core.
(most unusual for me in the meaning that most videos of this kind i've seen about eve were either at loss to explain, or focused on the mechanical features and didn't notice the actual core dynamics, didn't see forest for the trees (and shrubbery)... and this one is the first that ignores all of that crap and just describes the forest itself so well)
Please do not forget that according to lore, for example an Abbadon Amarr battleship has in addition to the capsuleer about 3000 souls on board which perish when the ship gets destroyed..
Thanks for making this video, was super helpful understanding some of the background. I just started playing and so far it's a huge learning curve for me, but fun. I figure I'll just take my time doing random stuff until I understand what I prefer doing and what kind of corporation I should join.

but many players get weirded out when I explain it, so maybe it doesn't apply to you.
@@MidnightSt For what is worth, yours was an interesting response,if you ever decide to make a post on it i'd gladly read
Best part of EvE is the community and by so much content generated by players in forms of tools, strategies, doctrines for ships and straight up guides, you can achieve many amazing objectives.
The only downside is that the giant universe and sandbox posibilities makes it accessible only to those that understand the way your character progresses, the value of planning ahead and sticking to the plan.
As a Minmatar, I completely agree with you. Good presentation of Eve Online.

Pvp in this game gets my adrenaline up like no other.
The commitment required feels vast if you want to achieve anything large. I mean what did those guys who fought in the Fountain War do for a living irl that allowed them to drop everything for a massive in game space battle?
EVE look awesome, I never played. But the more videos I watch of the game, I more see its a HUGE learning curve.
"Mining and Manufacturing. Things that carebears do."

Yes.. my reaction exactly. People that wish to just be left alone and have a good time are shamed in Eve. Pretty much in a nutshell why I left. The entire set of sociopathic misfits that play the game think like this: 'my way or the highway'.
Yes.. I know there are nice people playing eve.. but they are SUCH a minority.
And.. just so everyone understands.. I play games to get away from bad human behavior. If I want to experience bad human behavior, I get up in the morning and go to work.

@@DarkVeghetta I think I had a look at it but never signed up. My internet is so slow I don't think I'd get anywhere with it. But your comment brought the game back to mind, I might actually set up an account now.. do you play EvE?
@@fruitytarian I first started ~11.5 years ago, then stopped for ~7 years, back at it for 2.5 years, last year I didn't play, and just a few weeks ago I bought a half-year subscription.

Heck, I've never lived in low-sec or null, never looted a wormhole, didn't really pvp... there's a LOT I still haven't touched upon in EvE, even with ~3.5 years of actually playing the game.
If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them to the best of my ability.
@@DarkVeghetta I have so many questions haha. The more I look into the game, the more questions I have... are high/ low/ null sec like levels that you work up to after a certain number of points or could I (theoretically) sign up tomorrow and jump straight to null-sec?
Funny how the best and most relaxing time in EVE for me was being in the NPC corp you default into when leaving a corp and just chugging along in there. No wars, no BS, no forced PVP. Joining a corp can be fine if you find people who you get along with and have the same goals. Anything above that like an alliance is pretty much paying monthly for a game for people to tell you want to do all the time. Other than being able to fly a big ship anything out of high sec is pretty boring and supringly uneventful. To those who don't know going into low or null security space is usually system after system of empty space.
Exactly! Most large Corps in Eve are absolute cancer to the new player. Stay in an NPC Corp until you find out what you like to do and play and do what you want to do when you want to do it. You will have a lot more fun learning the game than being under the thumb of a large Corp.
I tried Eve once, i was so damn overwehlmed by even the tutorial that i didnt continue. Its fucking interesting gama but im not made for it
Just gotta go slow and find a resonable old vet to give you pointers and explain shit. :)
change your approach. it's not a game, not a thing you can learn and understand as a whole and therefore win.
it's world you go into to chill and have a good time and try stupid stuff in.
but mainly it's a world to be in, enjoying the vibe and events and people.
i had this same experience as you the first time i tried, and on top of that, boredom came very quickly.
that was 4 years ago, then I had a 1year gap, tried again, by complete accident found a great corp, and suddenly it all started making sense :)
once again: it's a world. it's not tailored for you to be "the chosen one". it's tailored for you to be "one, who will maybe decide to become the regional chosen one and in a few years of consistent play, he'll maybe even achieve it"
you don't log into eve to "finish this quest", you log into eve to be in that world and with those people.
in the meantime you occasionally finish some quest or make some money, so that you can fit the ship to be in the eve world and with those people better.
today, i logged in for an hour, didn't even undock from a station because i was too lazy to babysit my miner, and too lazy to actually do something that requires attention, i just sat there, watching what my buddies are chatting about, occasionally chiming in, lazily thinking about my plans to become a wormhole industry magnate XD
it's not about what the game gives you, because basically it gives you nothing.
it's about what the game enables you to do, because basically it enables you to do anything that makes sense relative to its setting.
if you're looking for a game that will entertain you, look elsewhere.
if you're looking for a game that will provide you with a huge directionless space in which you can entertain yourself in countless ways, welcome to Eve.
@@MidnightSt thanks for the detailed answer. I never looked to Eve as a game that one could finish or where i would be the chosen one. As you said, that wouldnt be the point, wich i understand cause i had before hand the expectation that it is rather player driven (the game). I probably just need some time where i can invest more time into it: Mainly my problem was the unability to get a grip on the mechanics such as proper flying and shooting. But anyway, thanks^^
@@DJ_Kie Could be the solution
Just started watching your content because I wanted to give this game ago, now that I have I will be giving it a bash as soon as it's downloaded

I've also been playing for seven years (nearly non-stop), and still a sperm with a lot to learn.
You forgot the most valuable commodity in EVE is trust !! This why small corps can thrive in the right spots in New Eden. Then get war decked and extorted. And realize you have to give that moon base up because they are bigger or far more skilled than you It's still cool ! In that affair I got a free help me ticket but who knows if that would be honored. Either way I made enough to skill up characters buy ships even make money on plex. However it does take a while.
The best ship in EVE is friendship :D
I’ve always been interested by multiplayer sandbox games and the endless possibilities that our universe provides, so this is probably the closest game to a perfect game in my opinion. However, looking through the videos related to Eve, I’m beginning to wonder if I really have the time and effort to develop and achieve my goals in this game. I’ve been a FPS player for quite a while and maybe I’m not ready for this kind of intensity yet. I think the future me will probably pick up this game and I hope he doesn’t regret it, because some dreams are meant to be dreams.
im a fps player and might go pro on valorant and just started eve today, im really enjoying
dude.. the screaming at 2:30
waiting for skills and the dumb repetition of rep quests killed my love for this game :/
Ive played for the first time a few years ago. It was all fun until I learned about Plesk. Just dropping in a few bucks saves you hundreds of hours of time in game of trying to acquire ISK. So I did that then all my goals were null and void, no need to mine, explore, rat or gank. You have everything you want. So then the game is instantly boring to me.
Dear Eve, make a new server and remove Plesk and have subscriptions just like WoW! Cheating makes the game boring.
So don’t buy PLEX.
Or rather, don’t buy anymore PLEX than you need to keep your clones OMEGA level.
@@Xalerdane I tried that, you just feel behind everyone who is dumping money into plex and buying skills and ships. It just turns the game into a pay to play, takes the fun out of it for me.
I'll definitely be giving this a try. This reminds me a lot of Freelancer, minus game missions though.
Ive been searching for this game since the first time i touched a computer… i have finally found it by pure chance… most certainly the beginning of a new era for me
still playing? or part of the 98% that quit within 1 month?
@@-neuro have not touched it yet. Gotta make the time. for now i just admire the game until i allocate a consistent timeframe to play it. and fuck you too
i played it a full 6 hours and it helped me forget about my abusive, manipulative, cokehead of a white girl exgirlfriend.
Congrats to you
Haha
Lmao... Yup, great distraction for that BS...
And now, when you remember it at odd moments.....You realize she is now trashing some other poor bastards life....AND YOU GRIN....Yes you do...ADMIT IT!!!!
Always wanted to play EVE online, but i never will. The biggest reason is the toxic community. Defend it all you want but it won't change the truth.
@Boddhi Oh look a toxic community member HAHA!
Im sorry to say chap but sadly what doesnt have a "toxic community" these days?? The reeeeeeee vocal minority is out in force everywhere, and Karens have got hold of a steering wheel!!! :P
One of the best games out there in terms of player requirement. Its a bit like dark souls. you either love it or hate it. Dont knock it til you tried it and 50p says you'll fall in love with it.
@@DJ_Kie If your comment was supposed to win me over...it didn't >.>
@@MerchantIvoryfilms Nope Just commenting. Let be real.. trying win over a person on the internet with an opinion? Cmon... :P
@@DJ_Kie Why even comment?
A few years back I did played the game for a while. I was happily being a 'carebear' when suddenly I was attack. At that time I thought that a NPC ship attacked me. Now I know I was wrong.
Wow that actually sounds amazing. I'll probably try it out.
if anyone wants to buy 3d printed eve online ships, pm me
Send me any amount of isk and i'll double it.
The question is, would you give it back?
Like the scams Spaceship Barbi pulled off in Amarr trading station, or undock ganking by a swarm of cheap T1 destroyers.....
Ahhh those good ol days :)
I just want eve's world, economy and shared universe mixed with star citizens realism and gameplay god damnit
That would be something indeed...
Slow progression is an understatement for this game. Im good, much more fun reading about some of the horror stories anyways.
EXCEL SPREADSHEETS IN SPACE!!
Some random dude on youtube: *calls miners carebears*
Miners: *goes on a strike and economy halts*
Some random dude on youtube and EVE Online community in their expensive toys with no ammunition: *surprised pikachu face*
Then after sad miners quit Chinese bots come in to make silly $$$ on the price jump.
@@hailstorm7868 and absolutely nothing changes in reality, afterward. lol
Thank you for your insights, liked your video a lot. I had difficulties to understand the reason, why it's such a successful game. Especially when I read news that ***** amount of time is eradicated in a (for me) silly personal war. But I am grasping now thanks your video. One instance is indeed gigantic.
But as a dedicated ED player I think you have nothing so cool like our fuel rats / hull seals. Even if I never needed their support so far. Feel often like a small boy looking up to them.
I don't understand how my PC can't handle Minecraft at a smooth fps but it can handle me traveling through space, jumping solar system by solar system, taking in the info of planets and much more.
This game is slow and boring.
It depends on what your doing and what's going on, but overall not true.
Yep and right there is a prime example of the toxic sewer rats that have infested Eve Online. Here’s some cheese Drukenguitargyuy you made my point beautifully lol. o7
@@zman_o7 but he is correct. If you don´t like it, don´t play it. simple. It´s the most immersive game I´ve ever played, but tastes are different...
@@zman_o7 its not the game itself that is toxic at all, like all competitive settings, it reveals character :)
Xlaminator I did not say do not play the game, my point was that is why so many leave the game because of the toxic elitist know it alls in the game. He could of gave the answer but no he had to be toxic and add be an adult not a pathetic child. I have thousands of hours logged in Eve and yes it is the most immersive game I have ever played after decades of gaming. My main beef is not the game but the toxic community that thinks it’s their job to run all the new players off. And I am sick of it and so are a lot of other long time players.
I am brand new, starting when i get ny PC running. Have already decided to give this game a go.
🎉I would like to thank everyone involved in this upload
i actually like watching videos on eve and what can be done rather than being involved in the actual game itself, it all sounds so amazing but videos and streams just look boring
very interesting though, it really is
