I have played Eve Online so many hours, and it's a bad game. Don't do it. you will spend hundreds of hours dreaming about the cool thing you'll do later, but for 99% of players the cool thing will never happen. You will be part of the one percent's cool thing.

Do you have a similar game?

Lost Ark. As an MMORPG it has terrible game design and profession systems on top of extremely heavy reliance on RNG. Everything has an RNG factor, from levelling your gear up and improving skills to pointless collectibles that don't really matter to the end game. Apart from all this the devs refuse to fix the core problems of the game such as reliance on alt characters to level up your main, stupidly high grinding for materials, bugs, performance and dumb designs for raids. The new player experience is terrible so anyone coming into the game will most likely quit withing a few weeks. On top of all this the game has egregious pricing for their shop and players are encouraged to spend to power up. I have 2500 hours in this game and only continue to play it because of my friend group that I made through the game. We play together so we avoid most of the horrible pub lobby experiences and gatekeeping.
