DUST chat, whatever. Gotta admit you have some balls asking Dust players to visit the Eve fanfest. Despite that how about you checkout my idea for the last days of dust? Click me I didn't actually ask anyone to come, although I would be happy to see Dusties. What I said was that anyone who does show up is welcome to have a chat and a beer with me if they'd like. Regretfully I cannot comment on the last days of DUST 514 part.
I have to echo the sentiment. I'm pretty done with CCP products at this point; this is (depending on how you count it) somewhere between the fifth to seventh time you guys have 'killed dust' by tossing the baby out with the bath water.
I still log in every day, but that's more mental illness on my part.
The community that I once thought was 'pretty great' after being involved in eve since somewhere around 2007, and dust since like 1.3 has more or less revealed itself to largely be bigots and other unsavory types. I've managed to be dragged into pathetic "DADDY LOVES ME MORE" arguments by a wide range of eve players, up to and including sitting CSM members who are STILL mad that dust was launched on console.
I see this 'NotLegion' thing as yet another attempt to cater to the eve playerbase (who basically just wanted dust to be a glorified eve expansion designed solely for them to promptly ignore)... and with CCP's track record; I'm inclined to believe that NotLegion will never get out the gate as CCP has had a habit overall of failing to deliver. Walk in stations? they got one done then had to pull from other teams, it's still a broken buggy mess. A laundry list of eve features? Broken on implementation. Dust? Carbon engine -> unreal engine -> redesign at alpha/beta end -> massive changes at around 1.4 -> almost complete redesign in 1.7/1.8 -> "Legion" -> "hotfix" & "warlords era -> Notlegion (how many times will you guys try to fix the foundations?). Dust had awful meta issues that lasted for (at times) a literal year with it never being addressed (combined with some stuff being 'broken' at launch like the amarr scout). World of Darkness hit alpha three separate times before being scrapped.
I'll check out the fanfest announcements, but my goodwill is dead at this point. Good luck with your eve-centric rebrand.
