Might bee it’s time to let players to create and operate jump gates from one system to a another in the neighbouring constellation…
History is as follows, the Yulai was first hub, then it was Jita, and is to this day. All other regional hubs are really only there because are fairly close to Jita. If they will remove conections, these hubs will die and only Jita will be like always. People will move to Caldari space and get everything there, because its cheaper. If there will still be something to get, and systems to inhabit of course.
Its not over yet, mind it. The scourge that these invasions are will make the high sec an unlivable place for traders, manufacturers and all sort of PvE players and miners.
Maybe something that Null Sec CSM actually agreed on with CCP. Behind everyones back.

I see through your clever word play
Jita was the first and only hub of it’s size. Yulai was never even remotely comparable even to Rens or Dodixie.
All the major hubs existed long before the highways. They used to be very far from Jita. You don’t know what you’re talking about.

I am going to enjoy the tears to this. The players are even the ones making this all happen. Adapt or perish. Welcome to Eve.

People can, and are, producing things locally you know …
Over time, local supplies will even out themselves and compete with Jita, and prices will balance themselves out.

Yulai was first and it was before CCP severed it off to see if other will grow. The Jita growed, the others not.
Why we get larger cities on more populated areas?
Why we get bigger cities in places where there is constant supply of everything thats needed for living?
Economy needs stabilization to grow. If anyone thinks that some disjointed system will magically flourish its like thinking the trees grow on pure water or pure minerals or pure gas. Everything is needed in constant supply.

Incorrect. Jita was first. Within weeks of the game going live. It was (at the time) 1 jump from Kisogo (what is still the most populated starter system) and 4-4 had level 1-3 agents. Everyone took their missions and sold their loot there. Yulai isn’t even a blip, it never compared.
We’re you even playing at launch? Are you just making this stuff up?

Except when the main constant supply is cut, people see the opportunity and adapt to create a new constant in their local/isolated area.
You can challenge the Jita as the central point of EVE, but I dont think you will ever get much success. It would have to be completely cut off, becoming null itself, and died, with all the economy you can see today.
Some people wanted this game to have a reset. Now you can do it. And see the effects. Nobody wil guarantee you, that you will not have to spent 100 days doing it, together with 10000Plex invested, and nobody can guarantee you, you will have customers.
And think about how empty most of Null and low sec is. Thats your future target customer.

Yulai used to be the central trade hub because it had gates to the core space of all 4 empires hisec space. CCP didn’t like that it became an easy central market so they blew up the gates. Jita evolved into the primary hub after that because back then your character’s race mattered. One of the Caldari schools gave you objectively better starting stats. A majority of people made Caldari characters because of this and Jita had some of the best mission agents. Thus it became a hub because people sold their mission wares there.

That was not the argument. You said Yulia was the first.

First central hub.

This is all catastrophizing hyperbole. The Amarr market is already productive. For large scale freight operations Jita to Amarr is like 5 jumps. It was before and it remains so now.
Your argument is self defeating. If it were true that producers and haulers would no longer be willing to make the journey then it’s also true of consumers. Consumers would therefore look to buy from Amarr (as they already do). Amarr will still have demand. Possibly more so.
If you imagine that people are just going to leave Amarr space then: you have no basis for this, and I’m OK with it. It just makes Amarr space more profitable for those that remain.

I dont think Amarr will be depopulated, I think all the space will be. High sec will be first. Because of how you cant control the routes. The majority wil still live around Jita. For some time.
Even back then nobody made the trip to Yulai. Having been one of those Deteis Military School newbies myself I actually remember the Jita hub forming. I remember having to fly 18 Jumps in a circle just to fit a Caracal out because production was not centralised and freighters didn’t exist to move ships in large quantities.
Yulai might have been central, but it was never a significant hub. People would fly right through the old Concord hub to get to Jita from the other empires

Possibly. And yet none of this even remotely supports your assertion but does support mine. The removal of a centralised hub stimulates regional ones.
The main point was that severing arteries make your body die. Game will bleed players.
Its not only Niarja.
Dont assume CCP knows what they are doing in long run. Or what players will do.
I only seen many places in EVE to think it will be so. The game will die if CCP will stay with what they have done. Where is CCP going with it?
My hope is they only wanted to mod the high sec a little bit in their direction. And not everything is left to players.
We will see.
