EVE Online: Exploring the New Player Experience
Posted October 27th, 2009 by Dalmarus
New EVE Online players get a helping hand.
An enigma in a world where MMOGs are shifting towards easy accessibility, EVE Online has continued to grow despite its devilish learning curve. The days of being thrown completely into the deep end without a life vest are gone, but the game is still easily the most complex MMOG on the market today. Join Eric “Dalmarus” Campbell as he jumps into the darkness of space. Will he sink or swim? There’s only one way to find out.
Being a competent EVE Online player requires you to learn more about the game and the universe it's set in than most high school classes, but in recent months, the curve has been smoothed out.
