I'm intrigued by the possibility of using my Eve avatars for Legion.
I'm conflicted about the possibility of merging Luk Manag with my Eve Online solo industrialist Managalar. I don't know if I would want the hassle of maintaining two accounts, though there might be some dual-boxing benefits, it hurts MMO persona cultivation and immersion.
I can't tell if CCP has given any thought into having a single world MMO where you have to have a new character for every different sub-game, but somebody should look into some plan to unify the different avatars.
I think it would be awesome if my Fenrir freighter captain could personally defend his ship when assaulted by a mercenary boarding party. I would of course also have an open contract to hire my own army of cannon fodder to defend the ship.

It is a thorny concept for sure. There are various bits of embarrassing trivia for CCP, like 'half a million Eve players' means 200k people who run a bunch of accounts.
Thus far, CCP has encouraged dual boxing and loading up on alt accounts...and at a certain point it's just going to be ridiculous. I'll have my 3 eve accounts each with alts, my Legion main and 2 alts, and soon a Valkerye pilot and alts, and the New Eden "population" will be advertised as 5 players (accounts).

I clicked the link on my phone and the app didn't preserve the start time, so I ended up listening to the video from the beginning. I watered the garden, and my cherry trees, then I made dinner, and eventually chromecasted the video on the wall screen...so I heard/watched the whole thing. I see now that the link has a time marker. They played the Eve:Forever video twice lol...and it was pretty awesome! I'm going to be mad if I don't see merc boarding parties.
They have plans for a cross platform persona manager, with a sci-fi backstory of clone consciousness transfers. Good.
Yes it is good, but I assume it will be optional which mains and alts and accounts might merge, or may be linked... I may assign my alts to merge into an alt persona maintained by the new persona management software.... I usually run my own fleet in Eve, and pay 3 separate subscriptions, so I may want to preserve the ability to run them concurrently.

I guess my Eve names are engraved on an Icelandic National Treasure, so I may have to consolidate my Dust names.
