Is EVE Online dead? After a few years away from EVE, I wanted to check back in to see how the game had changed over the years. It’s shocking how little is going on. During my 50 jumps to Jita to check the market situation, I only saw 2 player ships. The systems are deserted. Is everyone just playing in low/0 sec now, or has the player count drastically dropped? ---

I took a Viator of Manticores from Jita to a null sec pocket in Syndicate an hour ago and there were at least 200 other player ships on my route. Troll _better_. ---

> [@Red\_Kiss](#): > > During my 50 jumps to Jita to check the market situation, I only saw 2 player ships. You were obviously carrying a consignment of baloney. There’s usually at least 100 ships outside Jita 4:4 itself. You’ll find a dozen or so at Sobaseki or Perimeter. And there’s all those Ospreys and Griffins of AG people lurking along the trade routes. ---

Solipsism is the belief that you are the only human being who has ever existed; all others are the inventions of your imagination. The good news is, since I am playing, Eve Online is alive and well. The bad news, I am sorry to say, none of you exist. Have fun! ---
