Eve Online Economics

Crazy.

Toxic, psychotic, self-aggrandizing drama queens simply aren't worth me spending my time on.

Too crazy for me. I played a while when it first came out but not for long. I still play Elite Dangerous though not regularly. I did get to Elite in 4 categories.

If you want to make money fast in Elite Dangerous then Exobiology is your ticket. Go for the  Stratum Tectonicas on the high metal planets and skip most of the rest. A first footfall collection of  Stratum Tectonicas pays 95 million credits. Get out of the bubble 5 or 6K LY and just because a system may already be discovered doesn't mean someone has already made first footfall on a planet.

Reminds me of when I played the original  Everquest back in the day that I sold one of my characters for over $5K on playerauctions. Never understood people who do that but I'm certain they do.

I don't know if you can play Eve Online alone. Seems you couldn't back in '04 when I quit. One reason I prefer Elite Dangerous. I play solo.

LOL. this reminds me of Masters Of Orion back in the day. I remember the girl I was dating at the time coming over and saying something about "that game" something like, oh great you're playing "that game" again.

Elite goes back to the mid 80's. Some didn't think it possible to do what they did with that on the 8 bit machines of those days.
