I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it’s a bad game. Don’t do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you’ll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent’s cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

    Yeah +1 on Destiny. My most played game after ARMA2 and I’d not recommend it. It doesn’t respect your time and you’re expected to just grind the same 3 or 4 events constantly and those don’t have any variation to them. Each season roles around with the same event to do each week for the next 12 weeks to get a slight recoloured gun.

    I know it’s common among MMOs to hyper focus in a small subset but at least alts exist and there’s a world to explore. There’s virtually no reason to go back to the main world in D2 outside of seasonal events and every area has the same feeling to it. Alts don’t really matter either, there’s 3 classes that all play almost the same way with slight variation. If I start a Mage or a Warrior in an MMO I’m going to have a different experience and challenge, In D2 the biggest challenge between a Hunter and Warlock is learning how double jumping works. I’m still going to be using the same gun to kill 99.9% of enemies.

    The devs also don’t care that much about their game. That much is self evident if you followed the recent major DLC release where at the end of the story even the communities own lore experts were scratching their head about what exactly the MacGuffin in the story was. At no point did the writers decide they should tell the players what it is/does even though all of the NPCs talk to you as if you already know.
