Oh boy, here we go again…
Cynically, I think this is an empty pitch made to try and re-interest investors (both new and old) past recent failures.
It took CCP over a decade to hone EVE to what it is today (whether you consider it good or not).
I have very little confidence they any longer have the resources/know-how to build an EVE 2.0 from scratch, much less one of an even wider scope than they have managed yet to integrate into EVE 1.0 over the last decade.
Ironically, CCP might be best off to emulate the Star Citizen funding model, for an EVE 2.0.
Try to crowd-source the funds from those with deep pockets that still believe in the dream of a near perfect space-sim/MMO to last a life-time.
