CoD, BF, Destiny, Apex, etc. are all twitch games - PvP yes, but a very different kind. A player-driven economic sandbox like Eve is very much a PvP game, but one that revolves around long-term strategy, skullduggery, backstabbing, propaganda, asymmetrical information warfare, massive social networks, etc. The biggest difference being that in EVE you’re misled into thinking you’re not a combatant because you don’t have to shoot people in the face unless you want to.
At risk of tooting my own horn, this is primarily aimed at new players - which you’re kind of not, but kind of are - but it may give you a little more insight into the kind of game that EVE is. It’s a slightly tongue-in-cheek attempt at a survival philosophy.
