Careful people, I think Cash AI works for Google Deepmind, remember what Google did to YouTube all those year ago. If Google does the same here with Eve, you could end up watching commercials between your ganks and every 5th gate jump.

So, you’d have to get a ticket to Reykjavic in order to pay for your extra Alpha services? Or do you expect Fenris to open offices in every country that has EVE players?

Trial accounts don’t need access to all the ships in the game, nor all the skillpoints.

Several Omega accounts can already run on a single IP. A single computer, even.


Your ‘‘rights’’ are just wishful thinking and a naive idea of how a for-profit enterprise should work.

We should actually restrict Alphas to cruisers and eliminate jump clones entirely.

For Alphas I assume, or have you taken leave of your senses?

I have nothing against alpha free players. My god man, go walk a dog, get paid, and buy some omega. Stop trying to reinvent the game store catalog for your budget!

I’m at a point where I say “just max out everyones skills and make the whole thing free to play”. The intent of the whole skill thing is and has always been deliberate creation of difference, a “carrot to chase”.

But whatever man, everyone else seems to think about how unfair it is that someone paid a little extra for something. Under capitalism. Sigh.

So how do FC pay for the hamsters and the code monkeys, if it’s all free?

That again. Look buddy, I am 43. You can imagine how many times I had that debate already. I have no issues with the game existing as-is and you paying for your subscription, as long as I don’t have one.

“I am at a point” means that I am no longer even considering that part of the equation. I was thinking about how any old guard always whines when new kids get some stuff for free because they didn’t. The free-to-play part is just what would be needed to make me check the game out again. I am at a point where all returns have diminished. So for me Omega is useless. Just more numbers that go up way to slowly to matter in the coming years, ever inching closer to other people’s numbers. But if you enjoy it… you do you.

Right, so you don’t want to play EvE and thus your opinion is irrelevant, gotcha.

Incorrect. I would like to play Eve. You misinterpret.

Well you don’t want to play it enough to pay for it, which is practically the same.

Whats there to misinterpret? If you want to play it, pay the 10 bucks a month. A service lke EVE being free makes no sense whatsoever.

And btw, I am 49, I did live in Socialism, believe me, it is far worse. You wouldn’t even have an EVE Online without capitalism.

Ah, that explains it. When you hear “free to play video game” you hear socialism. Let me guess… American? Anyway. We’re done.

Fine. Stick with that idea. It’s wrong, but stick with it anyway.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think the United States has had any socialism in the past 49 years.
