The kind of information I asked in my first post: “What’s “the right direction” according to you?”.

That’s easy: Buy Omega Time and support the Devs in their decisions. Trust them. They seem to know where they want to take EVE.

Based on the roadmap id say they dont know where to take EVE Online. If they knew where to take it id say based on the poll players do not seem to agree.

Until CCP hire you as a game designer I don’t think your polls will do anything but clutter the forum.

All they need to do is hire some talent, although that is easier said than done. But i dont think they even try. I think they just hire their friends or something.

Looks to me that they’re a talented enough bunch. The game runs fine and there’s plenty to do. I don’t see what more you want.

That is only what _you_ think. Have you visited their studio to say that? Have you seen them at work?

Most companies hire people they know. It helps with trust and morale.

I don’t know and it isn’t my concern. As long as the game is back up after downtime I’m happy.

I think it’s a great artsy picture with a cool tagline. Nothing wrong with it at all.

“Strike at the heart of Darkness” is pretty clear to me: Defeat the baddies.  
“Deathless” is someone who hasn’t died, can’t die. Capsuleers had to die to become immortal.

Morals? This is a video game based around rampant capitalism and killing things… Neither of those things usually has a place for morals. Scams are actively welcomed. I don’t think morals matter much in the way of game development.

Does the game work with limited bugs, does the game make money, is the player base active or at least steady. And honestly that first one is 50/50 depending on the game company sometimes lol

Having read some of the stuff from the past, I do realize that the game difficulty has evolved and improved but it isn’t a bad thing. It feels right to me and that’s important for new players to feel that they have a handle on the basics.
