Is this game better than Eve Online?

Don't say it's not the same game, just answer my question.

It's not the same game, other than it's in space, you'd be comparing apples and ostriches.

They both are fairly complicated and involved, but the biggest difference is that there isn’t really any PvP in STO. Also, EVE is less pay to win the STO. I enjoyed STO more than EVE because I felt like I could log on and play and make progress without needing to stay online for a long period of time. So, the games are different and it does depend on what style you enjoy. I know you didn’t want to hear that, but we are comparing apples and oranges here.

That demand does not make sense.

They are both space MMOs, that's about where the similarities end (overexaggerated for effect).

Subjective Opinion:
Eve is trash because they thought Ayn Randian economics was a good idea and the whole setup feels off stylistically.
The whole thing brings out the worst in people, too.

People swear Eve is fantastic and that it also brings out the best in people - I hated every minute of it when I tried (gave it a fair shake, didn't click at all).

The whole concept is moronic at best, breeding grounds for griefers at worst.

But that's my opinion.

Now, I love Star Trek, and STO is one of my most played games, ever.

Yet people think it is trash, and those people have good reasons (and also silly ones of course).
It's dated. It's wonky in places, and they can't seem to fix them properly, at least not without other parts going ping in a different, unexpected corner.

New gameplay content comes at a crawl of about one episode per year, and the last ones met mixed receptions for reasons I won't get into here, but those people also have points.

But I'm loving (almost) every minute of it and have for years.

Will you think STO is better than Eve?

Honest answer: How the F should we know.

As others have already said Eve and STO could not be more different from each other making it very hard to compare the two.

I love both for what they are, but your question is all about you. How would any of us know what you like?

The only way you are going to know is by playing both and making up your own mind. Since both are free to play you really do not have much to lose by doing so.

They're not the same game. They simply aren't. You might as well ask whether chess or volleyball is the better game. All I can tell you is that one benefits from wearing bikinis and the other very much doesn't.

If you are a fan of the TV shows then STO is the way to go

Don't listen to these guys, this is without a doubt the greatest game ever made.

Play it and only it it will change your life, you will be (as desired) more or less manly, more charismatic, more highly thought of at work, held in esteem by random strangers, and possessed of a spiritual serenity that would make the Dalai Lama jealous.

I have heard that the Dalai Lama plays STO.

[Bruceusa2086]

they're the same as they're both in the sci-fi genre, and for being a MMORPG but that's where the matchings end...

Why would i say it's the same game when they are completely different to each other? and how can you compare them to each other and which is better?

i can't answer to the point because it's not possible to do so being the games are different to each other.

Gameplay is vastly different. Eve has much more depth, STO is fairly shallow. Also, there isn't much really being done with it, it's just a cash grab for whales to spend their money on ships on.

[mightycranium]

no . this game is junk and constantly gets worse

[BloodAngel500]

yes, eve is boring gameplay wise, the only thing eve has is realism economically and politically

which means exactly what to STO with those mechanics?

This is honestly your best Answer. As the two cannot be compared to each other.

depends on taste
eve online : hardcore permaloss game mechanics + open world pvp and player driven market , for more usable ships you need a subscription
STO : casual game without loss but ground combat and completely free , micro transactions in form of races , ships and some outfits + loot crates who are forbidden in some countries
hope that helped
