Here is my 11 hours experience in Eve Online as a new player.

[Tuativenatined]

I started playing the game and learned about exploration. Got excited after completing the tutorial and set out to probe stuffs. I found a worm hole scanned it and pin pointed its location. Worm hole found! Let's find out where it goes. Enter it and end up in uncharted space. Ok let's scan and find some treasure since my ships computer has to save the worm hole that I just went though right. I mean the location is known right. Well I scan this new area about 10 feet away from this worm hole which I know leads back to where I came from right. And I find some places and get some treasure. So far so good. Happy with my cargo I open up the probe map and what do I find? Nothing! The worm hole that I went through to get here for some reason my computer on my ship ran out of ram or something and didn't save that location. Not sure what the reasoning for this is but I asked for help. I got the answer that I have to scan again.

Well this system has like 5 worm holes and I end up not being able to jump or warp anywhere close to back home. No way to get back home being in uncharted space and my ships computer running out of ram not saving the location of stuff that I already found I tried to warp to green areas since I thought they were safe and once I get to the first location that is green I see red vehicles and get one shotted. All my treasures which I had no clue what to do with anyway and all of my items I bought for my scanner ship were gone. Ship is insured so that is good I guess. Oh wait. I still can't get back home to get the payout. There is no way for me to get back to where I need to be. Most of my 11 hours were trying to figure out how to do things. I learned how to fight and how to probe. To bad my ships computer needed more ram to save locations I have already explored. Promptly uninstalled. Sorry but this game is far to frustrating to even try to figure it out.

Oh no, did wittle baby fail to do research on a game and then fail to do research or ask questions on the mechanics of that game and then die? If you had asked literally a single person they would have told you that going into a wormhole as a new player is a bad idea, but you didn't and now you are gone, and no one cares.

look at you with your 'tough guy' keyboard warrior comment.

google "eve online learning curve", it's a drawing of a cliff full of dead bodies and a bulldozer on top. You are the little guy falling to the side, clueless about what you just walked into.

Walk away while you can.

You keep playing, because you are addicted.

And so am I...

Just one more kill, maybe the explorer has something good (they never do)

I ganked a Hulk with faction mining modules and augmented drones recently. It was worth almost 800 million ISK.

Or because it's just a really enjoyable hobby, which I take extended breaks for if I get burnt out, you don't take breaks with things you're addicted to.
