This is not PC world. I play on console because I don't believe in wasting time on 'creative' indie/DIY projects with creative f2p schemes that abound in the PC world. I want to give my money to a big evil corporation with dumb drones for devs that actually know what they are doing and have done it many times before and will turn out a game with the right specifications, so that it plays like it should and not with hollow promises to arrive at that point years away.

It may be an appauling surprize to you but EVE is not a well developed MMO. All it got going for it is SOV and PVP concenpts that other MMO games were not good at implementing. This is what keeps ppl playing EVE. The actual content of EVE is garbage. All the quests/missions in the game are probably the worst in the industry: they are all clones of one another: go shoot NPC mob and come back. The NPC in the game are just !! static pictures - something from probably the 80s standard for an RPG.

So when making comparisons, don't set EVE to be some sort of high standard. It is a successful niche game because of a couple of well implemented concepts in the game not because it's highly developed or polished.

Yes, Eve started poorly and now its a decent game, but you have to keep in mind:
- it was TEN YEARS, just think about how long that is...
- EVE is not a shooter or a console game.
- That EVE was a success does NOT in any way, shape, or form guarantees that DUST will be as successful or successful at all, even in such time, contrary to popular belief, EVE is not DUST, and they're two completely different games that share some elements.
- "Oh but DUST won't take that long"
Oh ok, so we only have to wait a year to have the game fixed, 2 more to add in all the cool fun stuff that was promised a year ago, 1 more to fix what the cool stuff broke, then another 3 to bring in all the cool stuff they're talking about now, hooray...?
(Not necessarily in that order of course, they'll be working on adding stuff while fixing stuff, but all the fixing is going to take some time and cause delays.)

Also keep in mind Dust has already been what, years in BETA and who knows how long in ALPHA?
Even with that, look how it ended up in release!

No its not horrible or the worst game ever, I'd say its about average with A LOT of problems.
So where did all ambition and those years in the making go to?

Now its mostly delay after delay with a promise of "a better future," while the game has actually gotten worse than it used to be...

anyone who shows any sign of displease with the game, does......
