Seems as though the story is not quite as straightforward. Interesting read, though (still loved the scorched earth part).
We all knew the whole Trig vs Edencom thing was rigged from the get-go. They weren’t going to allow Edencom players to win. The goal was to cut off Jita from Amarr. There was only ever going to be one outcome.

We have a fairly interesting discussion about this video on reddit ( Reddit - Dive into anything )
He is not fully transparent apparently.

Honestly, after the discussions Ive had with some people that have worked for CCP a lot of things arent “free will”. It is their business afterall and I have never once in my Eve career thought we had free choice in the development cycle. From T20 to today. So nothing surprised me.

When CCP announced the invasion by these Traglivians I was very intrigued, especially when I read that players could help/hinder the conquest.
That was surprising. An online game was going to give players the reins on the future of dozens of systems, potentially upending the biodiversity of a whole cluster?
My skeptic voice told me hardly.
I told myself it’s probably a new expansion to get players engaged. The end result would be exactly what the developers want it to be. I didn’t pay much attention to it back then.
Either way, I feel that the existence of Pochven adds a good dimension to EVE, no matter how it happened it is beneficial to the game.

There is a lot of revisionist history and propaganda going on there, be careful who you believe in threads like those.

I think the main thing to take away from all of this is that Pochven is a license to print ISK…
Yes and that incentivises people to make ■■■■up as to get an advantage or to hide the fact that… they got advantaged.
With all good stories the truth is probably somewhere in-between…

Ok forum warriors – I’m interested to see how you spin this one.
Spin how exactly? There’s a lot more information on Reddit than has been presented here. I’m not going to post any of it here because it would probably be against the EULA - but I suggest you visit the original thread on Reddit and make your own determinations.
Again? in my 15 years in the game it has never ended.
