I currently play this game. I was searching for graphical MUDs sometime late 2003, and found EVE. I didn't have powerful graphics card at the time, so I had to wait two agonizing months. With the screenshots, the backstory, and the library all at my fingertips, I had to excercise great willpower to not to drool over myself.

The first time I went into warp, my jaw hit the floor and I said to myself that this is the only game I'm going to play and stay interested in (as I don't play games very often, they have to interest me right from the get go to have my support)... and I have. It has been just over a year since I've joined. I've made a lot of friends, and have learned a lot about all facets of the game. I'm primarily a miner, but my wish is to get into player-versus-player action soon.

The graphics, the story, and the multitude of options in-game are in short, amazing. Do you want to be a trader? A player-Killer? A miner? A researcher? A manufacturer? These and many more options are available.

This game currently holds the record for non-shardless MMORPGs - about 12 800 people online at once. No other RPG can currently touch this record. World of Warcraft and all the others require you to join a certai server and stay on that server. What is worse is that each server's gameplay is separate. EVE Online has no such restriction. Communicate, buddy up, and fight with whomever you wish.

There is a no-obligation 14-day trial available to anyone who is interested, just look for it on the front page of the website linked above. That means no credit card numbers, and no stranglehold by the game's maintainers. Play for two weeks (each account has three separate character slots available for you to use), and if you don't like it, cancel your account. It's that easy, and CCP (the game's creator) has been very good to those who just want to see the game first-hand.

Lak, that above wasn't for you obviously, but for all the MMORPG players who aren't on EVE already. I seriously cannot say enough about this game. It has taken my breath away.

What about you, Lak?

If anyone is interested in contacting me in-game, PM me on TFP or leave your in-game name here in this thread.
