1s EVE to me is basically freedom, it’s a giant open universe
6s where you can do whatever you want.
9s You can have really relaxed slow paced stuff where you can take it easy.
15s Or you could be on the edge of your seat,
18s shaking,
20s making split second decisions.
24s This is EVE.
25s You know it’s a crazy universe where anything can happen,
28s and however you want to do it, go for it.
33s I would describe myself as a kind of a freedom fighter.
38s My very first character was a Minmatar character
40s because they just seemed like the coolest, you know, most brutal people,
43s and I was like, I want to be that guy.
47s I started out doing the missions in hi-sec,
50s and I wanted to be on the side of the people
52s who were fighting against the oppression, against the bad guys,
55s and once I learned that you can basically help them
58s and fight the other factions,
60s that’s all I wanted to do.
67s It’s a very satisfying feeling you know,
70s starting out at the bottom and working my way up,
72s getting to more, you know, advanced situations, bigger ships,
76s bigger enemies and all that kinda cool stuff.
94s The ship that I wanted to sit in more than anything was the Paladin,
97s which is the Amarrian marauder.
100s It was red and gold and it had the lasers,
104s and you know, massive firepower, incredible capabilities.
109s I wanted to sit in that thing, I wanted to fly, I wanted to undock.
113s It’s like a project and you’re kind of putting the pieces together
116s by getting the skills ready for the ship and all the modules.
119s You’ve got to get the money to afford it.
123s You’ve got a dream that you want and that ship basically is the dream.
128s And once you finally get into it there’s no greater feeling.
132s I was lovestruck when I sat in that thing and undocked.
136s You know, with that ship I could take on anything.
147s There’s so many different forms on PvE,
149s trying to wrap your head around it, you’ve got a ton to do.
156s All the options are there,
157s it’s just a matter of going out and whatever fits your play style,
160s whatever you feel is the best thing to go after.
170s Basically just jump into whatever catches your attention.
175s It’s a huge universe, there’s a lot in it, get out there and try it.
