It’s funny. I guess it depends on your perspective. To me, WIS was one of the newer features of the game. For a PvE player it was introduced long after the missions we run, the ORE ships, Scanning, and a whole host of other things that may have been iterated on, but many have not. They didn’t even try. They took development from another game, tacked it on, tacked the store onto that, and never touched it again except to slide more microtransactions in. They could have strengthened the bond between EVE and Dust by creating spaces for characters from both games to interact. They could have broadened the world by creating offices and NPCs we can actually see. I gotta tell you, I might have picked up a Fed Navy T-shirt from the concourse on my way to turn in a mission one day, even if I rarely used the feature on the regular. EVE is, or is supposed to be, a social game. It could have benefited from social spaces and social features. ---

Go hang out in Jita to find out how Eve players use social spaces. Although that does make me hope that if we do have WIS, me and a group of buddies can jump people in dark corners and take their wallets… ---

Perhaps your own Abyssal pocket instead, like how triglavians create theirs capsuleers for the mere price of 2500 💳 PLEX per month can form their own too. It will be called: My Little Pearl Space Pocket. (Purchase will also grant free cat ears to your avatar as a bonus.) 😼 🐈 ---

Its good too see ideas like this. Player habs are part of other MMO games. They vary in size, form, location and price. What seems too be falling by the wayside in new MMO space based games is a mandatory monthly sub. The competition is getting bigger day by day. Glad to see it happening. ---

personally, I would rather have WiS and the ability to open up my own storefront or Bar… Be able to use a proper a war room in the corporate office, A lounge in the Corp Office (public area) a room for Recruiting in the Corp office… Things of that nature… rather than a Star Trek Online pseudo place in space… which for EvE would be stupid. ---

I want something other but I respect your wishes and ideas. I think we both agree that Eve needs some sort of expansion of that kind. It is simply a commonly accepted standard today. ---

Would you believe me if I told there is a game in DEV right now that has walking in stations, in your ship and planet side in structures or out? There is even a ship that will have shops in it too. While it is a ways off, the closer it gets, the more likely EvE will compete vs loose any market share.
