I’m fine with Eve dying a slow and agonizing death. I’d rather it die and it not be turned into some abomination than to have it live for another 10 years as some cash-grabbing playground with no player-made content.
This is a competitive pvp game and for some the stakes are high with the time, effort, and real life “investment” they’ve put into this hobby. It is exactly these aspects of the game that have created a reputation as Eve being a game that is very different than others.
So let the casuals and cry babies leave. If I wanted to play a game with a huge playerbase and just farm all day I wouldn’t be playing Eve Online.
