I've come to the conclusion that EVE and MS are similar to each other in different terms. The terms I have defined are set by having no limit. In MS, there is almost no limit to as how powerful one person can get. In EVE, it is basically limitless to reach an end, as you can define it yourself, just as in MS. In both games, the concept is boiled down to power, and control. In MS, people are fighting over control of FM, control of bosses, and control of the game. In EVE, people are fighting over control of territories, and control over markets, and other crap. Now that I mention this, if you spend any amount of money on NX on a monthly basis, would you ever consider joining EVE instead of MS? I see it as two similar games, except one holds the greater power for the price. Many players spend a little amount of NX on a game so poorly made, that they could spend it on other games, such as EVE which seems to be a good MS copy... Now if you're going to argue which is better, please define what your base is so it is easy to clarify. Remember, this is an educational discussion about the components of each topic. Here are some bases you can branch off of(examples): Economy Players Power Limits Gameplay Graphics And I do feel that EVE may not be new-player friendly as MS, but I think it's endgame would be greatly better than MS. (My one and only opinion)

Well this is a maplestory forum so many of them are going to say MS. Eve is good though.

I heard that some guy on Eve Online lost $1000 in monthly subscriptions because he was attacked by players. http://www.massively.com/2010/08/08/eve-player-destroys-over-1000-worth-of-game-time/ Gg. That would never happen in Maple

iirc, EVE promotes scamming, and other crap like that right? It seems pretty realistic to life o.o And the economy is supposed to be the best "mimic" as of real life right? PS: I also heard that a lot of people's NX and other crap are disappearing ingame in MS recently. Doesn't mean that stuff like that "has" happened in MS before? o.o
