Heavily group based, if you try to play EVE all on your own, I'm pretty sure you'd commit suicide. lol

Yes, it's rather boring if you don't join a corp and just try going at it alone. It's nice having a goal to work with other people to acheive rather than just grinding for items.

Very cool im glad to hear this, are there any friendly/mature coorps out there? Im mostly interested in pve, pvp is more of a side thing for me I just do it for fun not for power or ego.

 

Im having a very difficult time with character creation though, ive only found some guides but its all stuff I know nothing about no easy to understand guides.

If you think his satire styled review is a serious review then you are completely clueless. There has not been one MMO review put out by this guy that has been remotely positive.

Games I've played:WAR, LOTRO, Tabula Rasa, AoC, EQ2, WoW, Vangaurd, LoTRO, D&DO, Lineage 2, Saga Of Ryzom, EvE Online, DAoC, Guild Wars, Star Wars Galaxies, Hell Gate London, Auto Assault, Grando Espada ( AKA SoTNW ), Archlord, CoV/H.

does it have to be positive to be a review? What part of the video was he incorrect?  I mean besides the parts where he made fun of it about "the game doesnt even want to be played". I'd like to see a long time eve player point out where yahtzee is wrong.

EDIT: and since when is yahtzee actually serious?

It was about time for an EVE-review "in your face".

I recommended EVE to many people years ago, but I never experienced such brute fanbois (not meaning you especially) like in these forums.
EVE is a good game and there ARE flaws.

Many postings reminded me of the sig from my all time favourite writer Agricola and his irony: "EVE cures cancer"

Here you go, some very easy to understand guides on combat / pve character creation. You'll have to look elsewhere for trading or industrials guides.

(btw, while the guides are good, don't trust this corp, and no, they do not open recruit, no matter what someone tells you in the recruitment channel)

Explain to me how a guy who has admitted to hating the MMO genre can honestly put out a non-bais review. It's joke review designed to get chuckles. He uses commonly heard complaints and then exaggerates them to make it funny. If you followed every MMO review he has done his key and ever encompassing theme for his comedy shtick is that MMO's in general are a giant waste of time and boring. It's a funny satire based review but I would not take it serious at all since in the end he is doing it to get laughs out of people.
