I totally understand where you're coming from. I was really upset with CCP, but I still really really like dust and I'm still going to play until I run out of isk.
Heck, I loved dust so much I started a webcomic on it, but I won't be finishing it any more... maybe. Actually, I don' t know. At my peak of Dust love I was actually having Dust dreams. lol. I'm a loser. But anyways, I actually wrote an entire script for my webcomic (had just finished it a week ago) and had started doing design work on different suits and characters before fanfest came out. That sort of killed all my ambitions.
My only exposure to the Eve Universe is Dust, but I got to fall in love with Eve in that short time. I loved reading about the Minmatar uprising, the loss and attempt to reclaim Caldari Prime, the return of the Empress Jamyl 1. The eve wiki page was my favorite reading pastime. I daydreamed whole fan fictions of Templar 1 and Thale, the sniper. I got to participate in the Templar Hunt as Templar Renegade 215! I can't explain how much I loved the universe. More than Star Wars. More than anything I've ever liked before (except for Sailor Moon, Silent Hill and Utena).
So I doubt I will ever delete dust. But every game will now feel... I don't know. sort of empty? maybe? I don't know anymore. I don't really have any plans to migrate to Legion. I play consoles because I love video games, even though I don't know much about them. I don't know anything about the tech side of games so building a PC seems too hard and expensive, but a ps4, I just save my money and *boom* I can play games. Easy.
Besides, the eve threads already make me feel intimidated. They are some seriously hardcore gamers (with very little sympathy for console gamers) and hardcore gamers scare me (an example of a hard core gamer: I went to go buy Lightning Returns because of the dress spheres and I like Lightning and RPG's and some guy in line told me that it sucked and I was dumb for liking her, and we were complete strangers. who does that?).
anyways, I don't know where this post is going anymore. I guess I just wanted to get that off my chest. maybe I will finish my comic. I think it could be cathartic and a nice way of saying goodbye. Maybe I can time it so the comic ends with the arrival of Legion and I can say ciao for now without raging, without feeling like CCP is evil, and still keeping my love of Eve intact. Because Eve is still awesome. A whole universe of mystery, adventure, and intrigue... and I was a part of that. Even if I never really did anything important.
tldr; sorry.
Thale groupie (not the gun, but the man).
My other car is Utena.
