Looping the Hen

Eve Rising

There is an interesting article about Eve Online in the Escapist this issue. Although some of the nuts and bolts are a little different than reality (according to the founders of ISS), it is mostly on target. I don't generally read the Escapist (though many regard it as a good e-zine) as I often find the writers much too fluffy and self-aggrandizing for my taste. This article though, and another I glanced through this morning, seem much less so than I remember.

Maybe I'll look at sticking around Eve a little longer; its average player count online at any one time is up almost 50% in the last 6 months, and it has received a ton of positive press in the last few months or so.

Update: I take it back. After reading the last couple of issues of the Escapist, I don't see any of the writing styles that drove me away from it in the first place. There are a lot of interesting and well-written articles. I'll keep an eye on it from now on!
