Should I play EVE?

I started playing Vega Conflict (great game check it out). And I've heard a lot of people talking about EVE.

I know it's a massive game, and I know how complicated it can get, but it does have my interest.

Although I'm not a huge fan of dumpling money into games, I'm beginning to care less and less.

So should I give it a go or is it not worth the time?

EVE is for people who really really like market economies and are willing to shovel a lot of money into a game over a long period of time. It's really good at what it does, for what it's worth

I like it when people talk about EVE despite never having to played it. You don't have to touch the economic side of EVE at all if you don't want to and still get around fine. Nor do you have to put any money beyond $15 a month into it to be any good. Hell if you really wanted to you could PLEX your way through the game (provided you make enough money to buy one in one of the markets, they typically go for 500-800 million isk). Which is entirely feasible if you spend the time in game and do something like incursions or playing the market.

Incursions are how I funded my PVP fun time when I played the game. I earned about 10 mil per site and could get about 100 mil in an hour with the incursion community I played with.
