Cap'n B, a really good job here so thanks. My guess is that something like my experience is really rare across gaming. Played intensely for about 5 years, waking up in middle of night to check skill queue and all, not that I still didn't, well, suck, at it . . . Then, IRL had the audacity to mess with me and I faded away. And now, over 7 years later, I decided to come back. How often does that happen in gaming? Not rhetorical--you know, I don't. And when I came back, CCP just friggin' restored everything I had spread all over New Eden. I'm very impressed. But I'm also a bit scared--when I played before I was a busy working person, but now, I-socalled-RL, I'm retired and there's no real limit, no reason to ever log out. So, even though I'm embarrassed by how bad I am at the core pvp, the recognition I'll probably never be even adequate, no less elite, I still really wanna get . . . better. I like this niche.

Plexing accounts really only makes sense if you're running multiple accounts. Realistically if you're an adult and can't afford $20/month or $15 for three months, then you've got larger concerns than Eve. For the young bucks, literally go collect scrap metal one weekend a month and you'll be able to by 3 months of omega with a bit left over. 5-6 hours of work vs 100+ grinding isk for a newb.

Yeah, Idk. Had a new bro get on the game, did tutorial, mined a couple days, got a cheap mining ship and went to mine in a .8 sec. Before he knows it, hes being told he has to have a mining license, even tho our Corp home station is there, and of course he has no money so they kill him. Now he has to wonder, is this hame even worth it, if I cant even get started before being accosted. They wiped out the rest of the miners in system and moved on.. .8 Sec space might has well have been .3

That's EVE. I don't mean that to sound like a handwave of what is obviously a nasty situation to end up in... But that's why the new player experience gives so much ISK, so many ships, and why you are consistently directed to join a corp. Yes, bad things happen in EVE, and that's kind of the point. The low points exist to accentuate the high points. The heroic player achievements matter more when there's genuine risk to them. Hopefully your friend took that as a learning experience. Red list the pilot and corp, stay aware of local. Nowhere is safe, and learning lessons like this help him get destroyed less. Accepting that these destructions are what fuels his industry (basic ore is worth something because it's risky, if it was safe to harvest, it would be worthless). As I said, profitability in Industry comes from destruction. The trick is making sure it's NOT YOU getting destroyed.

@captainbenzie Yeah, completely understand. I've been playing off and on since 2006 and I just live on the danger of it but I've always been a 100% solo guy. Now I'm coming back and trying to be more social for the first time and just got absolutely addicted to wormholes. So, I'm bringing friends in too. It's brought a new view of things as I try and explain these things for the first time to someone else but me lol. I pulled him into Catskull with me. I'm devoted as I've ever been and I'm holding on to him best I can lol. It just didn't help it was in the Tolle system of all places, to pirates demanding Mining licenses 😆. Anyway, thanks for giving me some new ways to try and explain this wild west to a growing player. I live on your content but I'm a better student than teacher. 👍

I'm happy to see you back, but sad that it's not EVE. I can't say that I'm interested in FF, so I really won't be watching vids like this. However, do what you enjoy. I feel like maybe you got bored of the EVE scene. Because this is a low comment video, I'll use it to throw a curveball at you. The Meta Show is struggling with Brisc retiring. I wonder if lending aid there might be the thing to get you back into the game? Just a random thought. You do you, good luck! o7

You've got a lot of great story ahead of you. Great time to come back, too, with Dawntrail about to land. Guide content for this game is pretty well saturated, and I doubt the gameplay itself will draw eyes unless or until you reach the bleeding edge of the available challenges. I think what would do best is your personal experience of the game. I never get tired of seeing people's first reactions to major story beats, for starters, and as you discover goals and aspirations outside the MSQ, tell us about the journey those take you on. Welcome back to the world you will come to know as Etheirys.

Its confusing because CCP tos says no use of third party software that can gain "you" as in one person an unfair advantage over another perso . Aka pvp multiboxing. Whats the excuse? Money CCP picks and chooses their policy and literally supports (alts as they describe) hence the multi pilot program. Now multiboxing is not alts. They describe what an (alt) is. People just cant admit the game would be healthier without it because they reliant on it now
@captainbenzie
@captainbenzie 2 күн бұрын
Sorry, you're wrong. I mean, you're right that using third party tools is against tos, but that's not what multiboxing is. That's botting. The main launcher allows you to multibox. The thing is, you have to input manually. The launcher can, and does, detect scripting very well. This is exactly what I mean when I say that folks don't understand multiboxing.

If you want a "solo EVE Online experience" then play Astrox Imperium. That said, I mostly play solo, but the experiences I have as a solo pilot are NOT things I could have in a fully NPC-driven game. I absolutely love X4 Foundations, but find myself bouncing between it and EVE Online because, between the two of them, I get most of my space game fill in. I really do miss Westwood's Earth and Beyond though.

Great vid but what is missing is the price of the Gas Cloud harvesting skill book. At the mo it is a whopping 39 million isk. No idea how may skill points I need as I'm still grinding mining, but the initial cost of that book alone is 50 x the price of the Venture ship itself. Unless you know if a way to get the skill book cheaper?

EVE is a sandbox. That's another thing that CCP has said multiple times, even further back than 2023. Even further back than 2010. If someone wants to play Solo, they aren't wrong, they're playing a harder game. You aren't wrong that the game is designed for a specific type person, a multiplayer game for groups of players, etc etc. But that certain group of players are on a spectrum that won't give a shit if your opinion (because that's what it is, even if it comes from Devs) is that they shouldn't play solo. You're trying to preach that your opinion is more valid than people who play this game, and a good chunk of these players have played EVE longer than the devs currently working on the game have worked with the game. I'm sorry Benzie, I love your videos, but I don't take you seriously enough to take you totally at face value. You simply aren't that influential in the EVE community, you simply aren't as trusted a source as you think you are. This is my opinion, you don't have to believe me, nor will you because in a way you are arrogant with this one. Guess there's nothing wrong with that, but I would probably check yourself before you try another one of these. Gonna get flamed for it every time.

my process is like this: I download eve because i really like the game and the universe, i play it for a few days untill reality sinks in that this game is ran by multiboxers. This could be me joining a corp that seems overflowing but then its just 5 guys with 20 accounts, or that one random ganker dude with 15 ships sitting on a gate instagibbing everything that flies across. My dream of playing eve online is flying in my solo ship and sometimes coming across interesting 1 v 1 fights that last a couple minutes or do some industrial activities with the occasional fleet battles over coms. But the reality is that you undock, jump a few times and get blown up in 0,5 seconds left wondering what just happened. It's either be the guy with 15 accounts blowing people up in the most unfair way you can think of justifying it to yourself somehow, or be the people being blown up. And that when i uninstall and go back to praying star citizen is going to be better. It's so unfortunate because i really like the vibe eve has got going on.

Firstly, Star Citizen is a scam. They've had so much money and they choose to update... The shop. Secondly, EVE is an MMO. It's not meant to be soloed. You say that it's one guy with 15 ships... But how can you tell? It may be a full fleet of players. If you're looking for 1v1 fights, Faction Warfare and Wormholes are your best bet, but don't expect to find solo players in an MMO.

A bit off topic, but I gotta vent it somewhere, and your one of my favorite Eve creators so… My biggest pet peeve about Eve is its skill system 😂. Eve is pretty much my dream game, I’ve always wanted a massive space mmo simulating the environments/politics of Star Wars and Star Trek, and this is it. And Eve would probably be one of my favorite games if it weren’t for skills lol. I much prefer it when the game makes you grind items or do activities to improve stats, I really don’t like it when they make you wait for stuff. In clash of clans case, for example, at least the wait time doesn’t actually limit what you can do in the game, the upgrades just improve stuff. But in Eve, you can’t do certain activities until you finish waiting for skills to train. And wouldn’t making players grind for upgrades make more sense financially? The more players have a reason to play, the better. My solution: don’t remove skills, they have existed for long enough that removing them outright would be too big a change. Instead, have it so you can do certain activities or something ingame to speed up the process. Like, mine this many ore to remove 3 hours of wait time in skill training, etc.
