I am ethically confused about paying subscription to mine rocks.

1- welcome to EVE

2- EVE isn’t meant to be fair

3- see #1

4- I think it’s a pretty good simulation of what happens when you allow people to take (most) control over a certain environment.

I don’t know of any other game that can show rl politics with such details.

5- see #2

The game is simply boring.

[Yiole_Gionglao]

Just my 2c

After 2012-13, CCP prioritized PvP and nullsec based on customer satisfaction and didn’t made enough to keep the less satisfied but majoritary PvE highsec demographic.

It turns that nullsec and PvPrs still aren’t satiisfied, but highsec PvErs have taken a serious hit in terms of population, forcing CCP to make the F2P move and yet that hasn’t stopped the decay of the game population and subscriber base.

How is it attention seeking?

Guess OP doesn’t get the survival of the fittest theory.

I’m guessing YOU are the one who doesn’t understand the survival of the fittest theory. If you define it as one cell in your body, then none of your cells are fit to survive. Similarly, if you define it as the propogation of you, your own self and nothing else, then . . . that’s one way of looking at it. The OP seems to be looking at it from a wider viewpoint, a system-wide viewpoint. Think about it this way: if the cells in your foot were complete [expletive deleted] and took all available resources and grew beyond their “intended” size and purpose, YOU would die and thus THEY would die. That’s not “fitness”; is it?

My foot is my alliance which destroys your toe.

OP is preaching self righteousness and really doesn’t understand both human nature.

You lack imagination.

[Kobran_Ruthless_Vaidrich]

I shouldn’t need a large amount of imagination to make a game fun to play. Nice try.

Cliched as this response is, if you don’t find it fun, don’t play it.

I don’t find watching cricket fun, but you won’t find me on a cricket forum moaning about how boring it is.

[Quelza]

That would be true in any other type of game. But the sandbox nature of EVE puts a lot of the burden of content creation in the hands of the players. Either EVE doesn’t appeal to you or you are incompetent at making your own fun.

I regretfully bought a years sub when it was on offer so that’s why I’m here. The time investment compared to the fun output is not balanced well at all. That is what makes the game boring. When you play any other game it becomes incredibly noticable. No need to get butthurt at me because I made a negative post, get over it.

It’s not for me, but I am invested in the game which is the problem, and I don’t just mean because of the subscription.

Yes, I am the one that sounds butthurt

So I’m not allowed to reply to anyone without being butthurt now? Don’t be ridiculous.

[Dom_Arkaral]

Tell us…
Were you mining? Lol

[Kobran_Ruthless_Vaidrich]

Nope.

[Dom_Arkaral]

Then what?
