Hang on a minute. Aren't those Sleepers as described in Templar One?
Sleepers? No. They were weird, blue eyes. Enheduanni though...

Think they're overcompensating for something much?

Lagging Behind

Morwen's Law:
1) The number of capsuleer women who are bisexual is greater than the number who are lesbian.
2) Most of the former group appear lesbian due to a lack of suitable male partners to go around.
3) The lack of suitable male partners can be summed up in most cases thusly: interested, worth the air they breathe, available; pick two.

Excellent. So now another important storyline element can be turned into farmable content.

I may just be the teensiest bit bitter here, but I have a very, very nervous feeling about this. This feels really, really like the hype prior the incursion live events: The events themselves were cool, but then the actual PvE content was introduced and just... left there to rot. Varying numbers of years on sleepers, sansha, and faction warfare are all unchanging farmable content; Ghost and Mordus sites are barely noticeable as content.

I will be very sad if 2 years from now the Jove are still feeding us battleships that, for all their hype, are by then easily defeated and harvested for loot.

CCP, if you're reading this, impress me. Pick up old plot lines, make the NPCs harder, give us a reason the techno-organic race has suddenly become all straight lines and hard angles.

I like the implications of Gallentians being punched in the face by walking up to a Minmatar as they so freely use another person's culture as a fad.

They aren't that hard angled Esna. for instance, the battleship. Think of an amoeba with gills or vents. Similar to the Drifter BS no?

The tower? Well....working on a theory for why it is the way it is. Might needed to be more machine than biology to last a looooong time deployed out in our space for recon? Who knows.

However, I WILL echo your sentiment about the possibility of this just becoming another farm fest. Unless we get some kind of very advanced automated event system or constant live events going on (lol), your.....nervousness may not be totally unwarranted.

I hear the new Jove ship AI is pretty nasty and adaptable, varying tank and damage types.   Also will pew pew POS that fire on it.

the existence of Sisi takes the fun out of RP with new content.

by the time your character encounters anything "for real", it's already been done to death on the IGS and other venues.

Yeah seriously. Like, warframe, the other game I play? You get like 20 minutes heads up before new content gets dumped on you. I understand the need to test new features, but having the magic crystal ball that is Sisi tends to ruin the surprise a bit.

Old Jove



New Jove






Owait, that's Jacus Roden.

Confirming CCP's art direction for ships for last few years has turned into generic 'tech' shit, all races merging into same generic nonsense.

These are pre-schizm Jove I believe, before they branched into Sleepers and modern New Eden Jove.




Society of Conscious thought really went full-goth this year....

What ? That's SoCT and not Jove ?

WAT  :bash:

I swear if they even dare touch SoCT in such a bad way...
