Freeing Slaves

I would like to free the slaves i capture while running missions, etc, literally, set them free is all, I keep all my mission items, i have lots and lots and lots of slaves.

There have been multiple forumns on this:

Please help free the slaves in eve other than right clicking trash, or jettison pew.

Is mounting them to the exterior of a shipā€™s hull an option?

You could bring all the slaves to a non-Amarr station and ā€œtell them theyā€™re freeā€, giving them Frozen Food, Dairy Products and Tobacco to live as a free man.

If you want to roleplay, that is.

Or drop a few of them with Small Arms and Confiscated Viral Agent in an Amarr station to sow chaos and fight back against their oppressors.

You can also space (jettison) them. Not sure thatā€™s any worse than ā€œtrashingā€ them in portā€¦

Iā€™ve always thought this would be a great content generator.

But, in todayā€™s world? I am still surprised we even have them in content and lore.

Hi, CCPLoki o/

How so?

Slavery is something of all times. Of course itā€™s considered a bad thing, especially nowadays, but thatā€™s no reason to remove it from the game.

In EVE slavery creates an interesting background lore for two factions in the game, a background story as well as a source of current conflict between the Amarr and Minmatar factions.

It would be silly to ban or cancel all books that contain slavery as part of the story, historic or fiction. I donā€™t see why game lore should be treated differently.

People who want video games changed due to real-world politics and views have issues. If you canā€™t separate a game from your real-world views, you need serious professional helpā€¦

with a little right click action.

Also, i am one of those that keeps water and food in the container with all the passengers and consumer products iā€™ve saved over the years so the peoples dont hungry, thirsty, and keep some antibiotics in there for umm too.

Itā€™s not that I have real-world views, certainly, a little right click action could, in theory, in Amarr, could turn those tourists into slaves.

I have more gallente, and minmatar morality views :slight_smile:

Now that would be fun, amarrians can put those slaves to work, while gallente can set them free, or, etc, etc, or maybe even perform very nominal tasks, but i certainly feel more can be done with these items.

Thatā€™s easier said than done.

For one, Freed Slaves, Elite Slaves and Slaves have very different prices on the market. If players could change one commodity into another you would crash the price of Elite and Freed slaves and make the prices of those depend on not only their regular supply but also that of Slaves.

Also how would you explain that you can rightclick a Slave to turn them into an ā€˜Elite Slaveā€™? I would assume such a process takes years of training and nourishment for that Slave, which shouldnā€™t be a free action.

Nice idea @Mad_Raptor

I imagine a new right click option for slaves called ā€œFree slavesā€ and if you do it you gain a random faction standing increase and an eve mail thanking you, maybe a day later?

The irony is they will gain value if something like that is introduced and you can sell the slaves instead :slight_smile:

ā€¦ and if the Amarrian customs folks find you with ā€œFreed Slavesā€? No freeing of slaves inside an Amarrian structure? And what do the Caldari think about this?

The cost of developers, and the will of the company to add this material to the game is the biggest problem.
