I've often had to explain these mechanics to newcomers, now I finally can rest. For any ex-EVE players here, this video is probably a nice trip down memory lane. For those that don't play, this is probably very confusing.

Every time I hear about eve, I remember how much I wished it was a slightly different game. There is no way to play eve without investing many hours each time. Everything takes a very long time.

On the plus side, just the feeling that someone may come up and kill you and take your stuff makes the game feel quite scary. I was doing wormholes for a while and pretty much was constantly nervous about getting killed. Never happened though.

Wormholing is like playing Eve 2, such a different breed of people
