Yes - really.

Certainly I will be glad to provide you example of people doing things that may not have been done before for profit -_human history_.

Perhaps PA will influence ccp towards more extreme monetization of EvE, perhaps not…but why would you deny the possibility?

If PA continues (?) with a hands-off approach to ccp **I think** that may reinforce the speculation that PA did not buy ccp for other reasons than ccp’s held permissions to do business in China. China’s smartphone gaming market could be pretty profitable for a gamiong company who could get into that restricted market. Is it just a coincidence that ccp’s partner fortheir smartphone game EvE Echoes is the Chinese company NetEase?

So yes, if Pearl Abyss felt it was somehow in their financial interest to do the things you seem to be vehemently denying it would be possible for them to do, they would do them whether you or any of us liked it or not.

PA ultimately doesn’t need us EvE players as we are simply generating bonus money for them. Now, I personally would like EvE to continue for a very long time - but that may be with money-generating things such as a CQ redux. Regardless of anything said previously, or even anything done or not done up to this point, PA will do what they want with their property if they decide to. Sorry.

Why people still don’t get that is strange.

Really.

CCP is licensing the EVE Online IP to NetEase. NetEase is developing EVE Echoes.

That’s not the same deal that CCP has with Pearl Abyss. Pearl Abyss is EVE Online’s publisher, CCP is still the developer.

Unless you can point an actual example that shows were Pearl Abyss’s own developers (if they have any) have flown out to Iceland or England, learned the engine that EVE Online runs on, planned, drafted, coded, and then implemented something (like the Captain’s Quarter’s that’s being discussed in this thread), and then had CCP approve it to be pushed out as a patch…

Unless you can show that, everything else is just baseless conspiracy theories from someone who doesn’t understand what a Publisher vs Developer for a video game is.

It seems some jimmies have been rustled over the mention of possibilities. Alrighty then. Whatever you do, be sure not to accidentaly look at the matter through a wider lens…it’s possible the picture might be unpleasant.
