An AMA on the forum of the game that was just sold? Answered by a dev looking to shine for his new overlords?

Yeah. This is legit.

The only thing, in my opinion, that reddit is good for is the AMA’s done under the cloak of anonymity. People there will answer honestly and not to a script.

Something that this theatrical production here in the EVE-O forum is definitely not.

Shame on you, Falcon. Shame.

After all the horror of answering the questions of an overall angry crowd, he is going to see a horror movie. That is pretty brave, if you ask me. 😉

Ummmm

Excuse me but not all of us are prude. Chloe 18, Honey Select and LL modded Skyrim are some of my favorite games and that would actually be something some of us, myself included, would enjoy if they take it far enough.

I can confirm the awesomeness of LL modded Skyrim. It is by far the game I’ve spent the most time in, and the number 1 reason I haven’t logged into the Eve client for the better part of a year now. It’s not about being a perv or anything, it’s about keeping the attention of your audience in a competitive market out there. If one huge-time-sink game offers the player more of what they want and at a lower price than another huge-time-sink-game, then the one that offers less and at a higher price is going to be pushed out. I’ll also mention that boob physics is a very tame feature. I agree one has to be a prude to see it as inappropriate.

My few questions:

With PA’s acquisition of CCP, how much Independence is maintained by CCP? This is tied to the next question as well since “independence to act” allow CCP to do whatever, but if your salary is controlled by profitability of EVE then CCP may be inclined to ■■■■ the players around.

Is CCP being offered financial incentives should they meet certain financial targets? Will this result in more aggressive micro-transaction/ marketing or is it “business as usual”?

What does PA’s ownership of CCP mean in terms of development, and purchasing of certain hardwares? For example, will PA’s ownership lead to investment in better servers to address server instability in larger battles, etc?

Jokes about Breast physics aside, there are a few ways to monetise this game:

Skins  
Clothing  
PLEX/ MCTs

Any deviation from those three, especially items that are game altering for “gold” only is obviously unacceptable by this community. How does CCP look to increase their income in the future if PA starts pressuring for “faster return on investment” or similar ■■■■?

Tranquility’s location is chosen to be centrally on the internet in a city with good backbone connections. Last time we moved (from the center of London to a location closer to Heathrow) then we considered other locations, first and foremost Amsterdam.

Next Fanfest in Reykjavík is 2nd-4th April 2020. There is no construction ongoing in Harpa itself and none planned that I know of at least. There is construction ongoing next to it.

CCP has said they’d like to create a multiplayer variation of Abyss sites in the future, but one of the special unique aspects of the Abyss is that it doesn’t last very long … every dive into it is random, with no connections to other Abyssal spaces, unique for you. The exact opposite is what enables WH space to be a vibrant place: you can anchor structures and live there.
