Is Dust fun for you to play? If so, keep playing, enjoy it for what it is. If not, don't play.
If you have to hand some grand vision of what the future might hold in order to enjoy day to day gameplay, stop playing.
This isn't like your mom telling you to eat your broccoli so you can get dessert.
If you don't like what you're consuming right now, don't play.
If the game isn't fun for you right now, don't play.
Also, we're CCP job security? So what you're saying is that....if a product appeals to consumers enough that they spend money on it....and people then spend money, thus making the product profitable, which then encourages the company to keep having people work on said product.....in order to make more money.... which assures those people will be able to keep working....to make money.............Wait a second, that's how EVERY COMPANY EVER WORKS.

Aeon, I've never seen you lose your cool in such a pedantic way, and imply a different persons personal feelings without even a hint of evidence at them.
Youve officially gone into bamm havoc insanity land.
May i suggest you log iut the forums, go get sihtcan hammered, and have a copious amount of sex, then return with a better state of mind.
And if not, then its time for you to leave the community as you plan on cutting back your gameplay regardless at this point.
My sincerest apologies if this seems melodramatic - my bad for caring about the time, effort, and money that I invested into this little experiment and being concerned as to what all of it was worth. Allow me to sarcastically ask for your forgiveness for needing slightly more reassurance than "eh, maybe" toward something that has been about three years (that's 1/8th or about 12%) of my life. Even longer on Eve Online (started in 2006).
Do you think you can take a moment out of your time to acknowledge that a man is basically begging for your forgiveness that he was being melodramatic over something that's had a significant impact on their actual life and actually inspired some life decisions (going to school for game design)? Do you think you can do that or is that too melodramatic for you as well? Does that infringe on your concept of masculinity and what is or is not acceptable for a person to be concerned about what is, at this point, basically a lifestyle?
Or are is that pedantic as well? Am I not allowed to be frustrated over something that is entirely out of my control over something that I genuinely love simply because it's a video game and that's -too weird- for you..?
Yeah, I implied a person's personal feelings. Generally what happens when that person basically devalues what is cause of concern for another player. You can't just up and walk in, tell someone the political correct equivalent of "quit being a baby" and then expect them not to get a little twinged. But yanno, feel free to keep that up, I'm sure I'll make a big turn around any minute now and legitimately apologize.
EDIT: And please, -PLEASE- say something about how I need to re-evaluate my life for putting such a high priority on a video game. That'll -definitely- make me turn around and suddenly go all rational and apologetic/sympathetic toward what you're trying to say.
