PVP-Dead.

[Backo]

With a server population of 20 people online, sometimes a single system is the ONLY system worthwhile for a given character. If I wanted to do nothing but PvE NPCs I'd play the campaign again. Excluding the Tau-29 event from 2-3 days back, the only 2 systems that ever looked worthwhile to be in on my Outcast were A) Omicron Delta and B) New York . Now let's say only Omicron Delta was my ZOI. I die there and sure I can go to all the other glorious systems such as Major, Tau-53, Omega-11, Drake, etc that have nobody in them. I'll sure have a great ton of fun interacting with the NPCs. I log the game to interact with other people and that is very hard when nearly all of the systems are devout of people to interact with. But you're going to say that people should just visit other systems, but guess what they rather log off than do that now. Currently we have more systems than players online. This means everyone can claim his own system where he isn't pvp dead and nobody will interact with anyone. Sounds fun, huh?

Personally most of the RP I've enjoyed lately has been with characters I don't know the people behind. People I don't feel all too comfortable to go and ask "hey I am dead here, how much of a bother would it be for you to fly 4 systems to the next freeport so we can continue the roleplay we had right before this?" If you have plenty of friends who are ready to do that for you, that's all great, but I imagine there's plenty of lone wolfs that want to have an enjoyable interaction continue after their pvp attackers have been done wiping the floor of system X.
