Thanks. I’m surprised they’re doing surveys—ARC Raider’s devs seem talented, and surveys usually add more noise than value. But I digress.
More like Star Trek, than Eve.
1MN Afterburner II just sounds boring. And they did this for almost all T2 items.
- Damage Control II
- Warp Scrambler II
- Warp Disruptor II
- Afterburner II
- Microwarpdrive II
- Adaptive Nano Plating II
- Kinetic Plating II
- Thermal Plating II
So on so forth

It’s a simple straightforward player-made thing. Nothing to discover, nothing special in it’s characteristics like the meta, faction or other sourced versions of those modules. It’s simply an improved version of the T1 player-made thing.
I don’t think those names are bad in that situation.
This looks more immersive

This is an urgent matter: the ore names should be updated now that more immersive, flavorful options exist —for example, renaming Yterium IV-Grade to Yterium-20. Its urgent.
They never asked any player about changing ores to just Grades: I preferred the old names (why the sudden change after nearly 20 years??).
Saying it’s urgent may actually slow things down. Deep down, I’m frustrated with how the game is being maintained, and it’s hard not to feel cynical about the company’s long-term direction—even if any real consequences might be years away.
Is an LLM even capable of such feelings like ‘frustration’ or ‘cynicism’?
I’d prefer if you stuck to the topic at hand, and not spam chatgpt messages here.

Why should they?
It’s their game and there’s only a handful of players upset with it, the others like me aren’t bothered either way.
I used to arrange them by icon size anyway, I still do.

I wonder how for example Kernite-5, Kernite-10 and Kernite-15 would be sorted by name.. My guess is Kernite-5 would come last—not ideal, but not terrible.
Could do (Name)-05.
Ore I
Ore II
Ore III
easy
that may still be too complex for the current generation of players.
how about “ISK thing”. And then without I , II or III. Just “ISK thing”. And the gameplay loop is “click ISK thing”. Shouldn’t even be nessessary to compress or refine and sell it. Just click and get ISK from the “ISK thing”.

Just assuming but probably they received complaints and found it to be the way to go based on that to change things this way, unless they just do things for the sake of doing things to create the impression they are “innovating”. We may never know either way. 
Though the CSM might have information about this, but not sure if they can actually share it if they do.
Stop oppressing his simulated feelings!

I just got back from my winter vacation, I see we still have these trash ore names. Did they at least fire the employee who obvious did this sabotage? If not, I want to apply for work at CCP. When you can take a dump on the game like this, and the boss thinks it smells sweet as honey, I should be able to handle a job like that no problem!

Slightly overreacting to make an over 250 pages reply post out of such a simple change…..

Really? So why is your name not Player-#84344? Why did you feel choosing a non-dumbed-down name was necessary for you? Are you special?
Also you are keeping a thread of which you claim it is too long going again now. Irony?
