Fleet commanders have staged daring rescue attempts, desperate last stands, and cunning ambushes. But what's consistent through its highs and lows is EVE Online's singular ability to spark intergalactic drama in its crucible of player-driven war.Įven now, EVE Online is in the midst of its most destructive conflict of all time as two sides of the galaxy wage war on each other.
This also isn't the first time EVE Online has landed in hot water with its players, and it won't be the last. Since its release, EVE Online has struggled to invent systems that both enable its cataclysmically large battles while keeping a level playing field for both sides.

Steven: EVE Online has slipped down from last year's position largely because of a series of controversies involving microtransactions and economic rebalancing that players are not happy about. Battlegrounds are ridiculous, the weekly Tavern Brawls can be fantastically broken, Duels can be great (when not awash with over-tuned Quest decks), and Arena is just as random as it ever was. Even when the plan doesn't pan out, the feeling is of moreishness-a stark contrast to the despair of the ladder experience.Īlan: Whole-hearthedly agree with Tim here-Hearthstone's ladder experience may be joy-sapping, but it more than makes up for those lows with variety. Building a lobby-dominating comp is like creating your own Rube Goldberg machine and letting it run riot. It's also rolling out paid cosmetics (inevitably) to keep the accountants happy, but that feels reasonable given how good the BGs experience is. Smartly, Blizzard is pumping resources into BGs to keep the minion and hero pools fresh.
Tim: Hearthstone retains its place thanks to the triumph that is the Battlegrounds mode, which has surely overtaken Standard as the main reason to play.
