EvE Fanfest is in a few days. They’ll show their current plans as they always do.
Why not wait to see what they say, then return to your (paid?) demagoguing.
You’re trying to sink the company - not improve the game.
Why?
–Gadget is also curious as to what CCP will say
I know what you mean but I think that´s why they are trying to make 32 more flavors because strawberry is not making them enough cash to keep the store open much longer.
Strawberry has funded the creation of all those other flavours however. I truly understand the need to diversify, but with the benefit of hindsight - though it’s been said all along - CCP got lucky with eve online and they’ve not had a clue what to do with it since. The development eve has received in the past 5 years…shockingly lacking.
Eve will continue for some time, there’s a hardcore of players who will keep some form of service profitable, but it’s simply not a game most people want to play anymore, it’s certainly not worth a subscription and hasn’t been for years.
If not for the new alpha i doubt i will even be back, Now i mainly just log in to see my ship do some simple mission and just log out.
I have only just started playing EVE (3 days ago). I’m blown away by the sheer scale and complexity of the game. I’m officially ‘hooked’. To hear people say that the game is dying makes me sad. Sad to think that I didn’t start playing this game years ago.
However, reading some of the famous (or infamous) stories that have come from EVE over the past two decades, reminds me that it was not the game that created them, it was us. The community.
Let’s make EVE great again.
“… is dying.”, threads are common for every online group. Or is “community” the buzzword we all use now?
Anyhow, people lose interest in things which they used to enjoy. This is normal and entirely natural, it happens because we learn all we can from the activity and then we move on, but at the same time we feel loss.
So, what people mean when they post “EVE is dying” threads, is that EVE is dying for them, so from their perspective they are entirely correct.
Basically the poster of a dying thread wants to hold a little funeral for their loss and have some others attend.

EVE online dying since i subbed in 2005
EVE will continue living as long as I keep a picture of my cloaky, HAM fit, Loki on the ofrenda. It’s alebrije is an Eros skin Basilisk.
Wait… is this the Coco thread?
EVE will continue lifing as long as the dying threads keep coming. 
So I’ve been playing on an off for a while but I realized it was dead when I’m grinding in game to get isk and sp for years then some new kid in our Corp is getting poped in pirate frigs every night and I realize I can’t compete with this pay to win BS the game is no longer fun. The lure to pay an extra 15 bucks irl and feel like a boss is to strong for most this makes pvp pure cancer.
Eve is dying for years now. So are many other games 
Eve actually died in 2012, we have now been beating this dead horse for 6 years.
“EVE is dying” - hah, I just realized that you can read this in a 2nd way. This should be linked in every anti-PVP-thread. Am I slow? Yes I am.
Well I do know this… I had to take a break about two years ago due to a surgery and the numbers on the servers back then were lower than they are now. So that tells me Eve is doing just fine… lol…
Eh? eve has the same numbers of servers… so no idea what you are talking about.
Its not like wow, you play on one server (unless you are in china then you play on a different server) so… wha?
I always think of which hair colour Eve is going to pick, because I hear she’s dyeing again.
I’m going to assume you are talking about me… Since you can’t figure it out I’ll do it for you… I’ll remove the “s” off of one word there for you… “numbers on the server”… Is that better???
The player base hasn’t been expanding/growing for sometime now. I think it’s fair to say it peaked around 2013 and has declined over the last 5 years, hence the introduction of F2P via Alpha clones.
However, declining doesn’t mean dying. EvE has always had a relatively small, niche yet loyal and dedicated fanbase and as long as they keep playing it can continue.
I think people are primarily in shock by the structural changes and number of abandoned projects at CCP. According to the Second Decade book, Walking-in-Station, Dust 514, EVE: Valkyrie, etc. all had long and integral futures alongside EVE. When all of those projects were shut down over the next few years, there weren’t a lot of other major projects to keep anyone looking forward to something, and subsequent staff cuts didn’t offer much in the way of confidence.
No one has provided any real compelling “evidence” that EVE is “dying,” whatever that even means, but the community has had little outside of cold splashes of water extinguishing ambitious and exciting projects, and right now there is literally nothing concrete to look forward to. Project Nova sounds cool, but we know so little about it and it has no release date, and of course many of us are worried that it will succumb to the same fate as Dust and Valkyrie, so at the moment we really don’t have anything tangible to be excited about.
In a game that is arguably more about possibility than actuality, that can certainly seem to some people like death. But in theory, doubts about CCP aside, that could change at any moment if a truly exciting and ambitious project is announced.
