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.

And while I'm linking videos, this is what PL streamer Nick_Fuzzeh, Eve's latest hero, was doing during the fight.

Just, having all this hope that CCP will put in all this effort to make the game you want.

EVE is well past the 'development' stage. The last 2 years of expansions have all been minor tweaks and polish.

For these things to happen, you'll need another company to attempt something as ambitious as EVE from the ground up, and no one has ever (seriously) tried to emulate/usurp EVE.

I think you are confusing "hope" with wishful thinking and amusing discussion. I don't think anyone here is naive about Eve. (Totally rhymed)

Now, if you want to call me a stupid hopeful nub about WoD, I can't argue with you. WW became the sole proprietors of my immortal soul many years ago, and I am unable to squash my hope after the merger.

We have almost no data to base any real guess of WoD's quality on at this point....

...well, except for CCP's gutting White Wolf (or 'CCP Atlanta') personnel every time they do another round of layoffs.

The MMO aside, I wonder if new content for the P&P/LARP versions of WoD are a thing of the past.

There's a lot less book gaming around now that all the franchises are being used (ruined) in video games.  I think Shadowrun is in its fifth edition.  I'm not sure about the WoD games.

I think one of the biggest problems with WoD as a basis for an actual video game might be that it relies so heavily on drama and politicking.  It's very much a storyteller's system, as opposed to your meat-and-potatoes, Tolkein-esque, gather-ye-mighty-heroes-and-enter-the-foreboding-dungeon that was a bit better translated into video games.  I used to LARP a Giovanni businessman who essentially ran a ghost-removal service with advanced ash-path powers.  I'm not sure how well that would translate.

V:tM (as well as all of cWoD) has been completely done for many years now. The nWoD universe is still regularly published and at (in my opinion) the same high quality I expect out of WW.
