It might have just worked. I might have to resurrect my old eve character.

Do they show the part where your carefully-crafted ship gets ganked by Goonsquad?

I have no fucking clue what I just watched, but it was cool. If only I had the time to dedicate to something like that. It seems like a game that I would have to dedicate a tremendous amount of time to.

Eve trailers always make me want to go play Eve, but then i go play Eve and don't enjoy it. The game is great, but getting into the game is not.

Also, i was in a tf2 clan with the original lofty, of the lofty scam!

I can only imagine trailers such as these are attempting to entice old players back into the game. The vast open world they have created is great, but as a new player you will be waiting a very long time before you have any sort of agency in it. I was very much looking forward to their "World of Darkness" project (partly because World of Darkness is a great setting and I've wanted more of it ever since Masquerade Bloodlines) because it would be nice to get into a CCP MMO on an even footing to the rest. Alas, twas not to be.

So I will content myself with admiring Eve as an observer. Rooks and Kings do some nice videos with narration that comes dangerously close to taking itself a wee bit too seriously (but I love it anyway).

Eve ads look like the most amazing Star Wars/Trek/BSG/culture space battles ever.

And then you see a video of an actual battle, where the server has slowed to 10% realtime and the whole thing plays like excel in space.

Tried this once, didnt figure out ANYTHING, just stared at some spaceship in empty space while navigating some config menus I didnt understand at all. Ragequitted after half an hour cause nothing happened. But this trailer was pretty awesome.

Looks great, but can't imagine the complexities to playing it. unless it's a single click to play game like Diablo, it may tax my brain.
