I think there should be some inherent bonuses to characters based on their race: Amarr, Caldari, Gallente or Minmatar.
Maybe a skill training bonus for all ships of that Empire?

I think you get like a 15 minute bonus on a skill.
Lol…gotta love the way ‘gatekeep’ is thrown up every time anyone loses an argument.
Okay, but by your logic, Minecraft, Gary’s Mod, Terraria, NMS, Sandbox, etc are not true sandboxes.
But missions do need a complete rework. From top to bottom. Someone said that CCP cant fix missions because of bad spaghetti code. Fine. Then here is how you get around that:
Leave all that code alone. Instead, create all new NPCs and create all new interactions with all new missions and all new rewards. Then when all of that works and has no bugs, delete all the old Agents. Replace them with the new ones. The old code with the old missions will never see the light of day again.
While we are at it, can we have some new space stations in High Sec? Some look new, but some look extremely low resolution as if they were coded in 15 years ago. Sure keep the old models as an option for those on the ancient machines. But with the ship resolution looking as good as it is right now, it’d be great to have stations to match!

I have more to say on this.
Look me up on zKill, see how many kills and deaths I have. It’s not like I don’t engage with the “true sandbox”.
They didn’t take away the events to have a more sandboxy sandbox, they took them away coz they needed to be fixed.
There is no other game that is more of a “true sandbox” than eve. You could add in the old events and double them and that would still be true.
It’s not like I want to build a career around running missions or doing events.
PvE in eve is PvP. Like market trading is PvP. And I’m not sure you or anyone else has the authority to say the sole purpose of any content is Eve should be this or that.

Okay. Remove every single person who runs missions, does events, and mines. Leave only those who do PvP and this game will fold.
You are completely wrong when you suggest otherwise. I don’t care how much ISK PvPers have stockpiled. The problem will be lost revenue for CCP.
Remove all the mining and all the missions and all the PvE events. Remove all the structures and high sec stations. Leave only PvP in open space and watch this game die in a couple of months.
“The sole purpose for doing anything but PvP is to make people PvP”
Such nonsense.

In an informal poll on the forums, players indicated that they spent in excess of 78% of their time played participating in PvE. That’s all regions - not just high-sec. And it excluded activities like trading PvP and FW.

This is a good idea.
Go play Star Citizen. Find out how poorly they’re doing.
Or we could instead remove all of the players with a ganking history… and no one would notice their absence. At all…
It’s like that saying: “If a tree falls on a mime in the forest - does anyone care?”

Oh, I think you would!
Care? No. Miss gankers? (not to be confused with ms. gankers) Definitely not. Although the one ship per year I lose on average is akin to a high-sec “nuisance tax” and kind of a drop in the bucket.

That’s not even a drop since we can make that much in a day.

We both know this is not true. We would surely notice the absence of constant karen complaint threads on the forums.

I think you’re underestimating them. They’d surely find another subject.

Well I’ve meant about ganking, they always post about other subjects as well, one prominent example being afk cloaking and despite CCP addressed the issue several times even that subject keeps ongoing still.
On that note I find it possible even after ganking was removed they might still keep complaining about it afterwards as well, maybe (if for no other reason) that it was not removed earlier or soon enough or some other such made up nonsense instead of embracing the fact.
They don’t actually undock or play the game, so even if ganking were removed, their memories of the old days would sustain tears for eons.

Maybe they should hire a gankotherapist for 1 bil ISK. I hear @Zaera_Keena is good in that profession.
