EVE is one of those games that early on it's tutorial was essentially 'Here's a spaceship, go fuck yourself.' When they say you can do whatever the hell you want, it's really not joking. There are people who live in JITA (most populace system) purely doing scams, or running markets. You have people who go into piracy or try to build massive empires.

I knew a guy who his entire playing of the game was making ammo to sell. There was a corp who's entire thing was doing PVP but with a bend to "Customer service", as in "Here is your complimentary missile delivery." and after blowing you up sending you a request to fill a survey on how the customer service was.

So it's a game that really is what you put in it. The reason I had to quit is it's a massive time sink. It's definitely not a game of "Oh, I've got about 30 minutes, let me hop on."

That's the reason i don't think i would like the game, it's a massive space sim that require a lot of time to get into. It just isn't a game for me, i think i would be confused by the lack of direction the game have, but i always enjoy the story people tell that happened within the game.
