I've been seeing ad's for EVE online on a site I recently visited, and it got me wanting to play the game again, as happens. And by again, I mean I've only ever done the trial. A few times. Latest time a few months ago I actually got the farthest into figuring out how the freak it works. Got an Amarrian cruiser outfitting with five laser guns and some other shit, went to do the next mission in a line of missions which meant facing a few frigates and a pair of destroyers. Still got pwned. This might be due to skills, because there are far, far, FAR too many skills, and it's kinda really complicated, but the point is, if I started the game now, I would never ever catch up to anyone who started a year ago+ in terms of skills and power. That puts a damper on things.
The discussion I'm aiming for is what does EVE have to offer that makes it worth starting this late in the game? Apart from the fact that it's gorgeous, unique, and has spaceships. And I adore well animated gorgeous spaceships with laser cannons..
Bearing in mind I wouldn't actually get it for a month or two given Reach comes out on Tuesday.
I want to like it. It just makes it difficult.
