Ugh, don't get me started on EVE. Like yeah, there's an awesome game underneath it all, but the fact that they make you train your character in real time by reading skill books feels so scummy when they are billing you a monthly fee. Like that has such an obvious perverse incentive. You think those skill books take as long as they take because it's fun? No way. They take that long because it maximises profit.
