> While it was awesome experience but man, it ate huge chunk of my time.
So much this. I spent so many hours between 2010-2014ish in fleets and on jabber/irc/vent but I just can’t devote that much time to a game these days. Tons of great memories and no regrets.
2010-2014 really was the heyday of EVE, it feels like. Maybe I just say that because that’s when I was most active, too. I quit 2016 I believe.
Sometimes it wasn’t even fleets, just sitting with cloaked spy alts on two monitors keeping an eye on your local chokepoints near your home base and keeping your corp updated while you’re reading a book IRL.
It’s an insane game but I’m glad for the experiences I had with it.
I used to know a guy who worked oil rigs I think six months of the year, earned a ton, then spent his off six months playing EVE Constantly. I think that might be close to the optimal way to play tbh.
