I've been playing since October last year. So far, i find it more to my liking than other popular MMORPG's. It's well worth the monthly fee. There are players in-game that trade game time with the in-game currency or ISK. Graphics are very good, it's like playing an online version of Homeworld, minus the repetetive routine of "destroying enemies" or the typical "hack and slash" feel. There is no dull moment with this game. I highly recommend it for gamers looking for a new challenge.
