EVE Online

EVE online is an MMORPG game developed by CCP. EVE online is a game where players take to the stars in space-ships to fulfill tasks and earn money (known as ISK or interstellar kash). There are many paths or careers to choose from when playing EVE. Players may choose to be pirates, miners, mercenaries, business owners, and much more. In EVE, every player within the game is attack-able, if not docked in a station. This gives a sense of risk and endangerment within the game world. EVE itself is an unforgivable game. When a player loses a ship, the ship is gone forever. A player will have to work to get enough ISK to pay for another ship. As well as the stench of risk in EVE, the game also has a very steep learning curve.

            One of the most unique things about EVE would be the ability to explore. The EVE game world is absolutely gigantic. Over 1000 star systems are present in the game world. There are different types of star systems as well. The safest place in EVE are the 1.0 systems.( or High-sec) This is usually where new players reside as these systems are heavily guarded by CONCORD, the game police force. Players seeking more adventure, risk, and ISK would venture to low-sec. Low-sec is home to the majority of the pirate and rogue corporations. Low-sec is a dangerous place for the unwary traveler. The most dangerous places in EVE are wormholes, and Null-sec (or 0.0). Wormholes are interstellar portals that can take you from one system to the next. Wormholes may also collapse. A person who is stuck in a wormhole with no exit route will be forced to self-destruct if they wish to escape. Nullsec is where most of the large alliances reside. Many of those alliances hold territory or sovereignty systems. These systems are considered their own and incursion of these systems may result in the player being killed by that corporation.

             I am excited to see that EVE is flourishing at a time where the majority of RPG PC gamers play World of Warcraft. Many players (such as I) play EVE because of the risk and the adrenaline rush when you get into a fight. EVE is a special game. I like that EVE releases a new expansion with new content every 8-12 months. This ensures that the game stays fresh and players will keep playing. I hope that EVE survives for a long time, it surely deserves it.
 
           Many game critics usually rate EVE as being one of the best PC games of all time. The sheer uniqueness and capabilities astonish the players. The risk of EVE adds adrenaline to every fight. EVE online is my favorite PC game and one of the most highly praised games on the MMO market.
