it's not a very "fun" game but it's without a doubt the most insane social experiment in the history of the internet.

the actual interesting part of the dumb fuck sandbox game is the spycraft elements that were on the levels akin to the cold war.

just one example, an important dude got hacked in rl and his sexuality was used as blackmail to effect ingame politics and help in an ingame war, the community's response to this dude being forced out of the closest was a play on "no I'm Spartus"

another is, you remember Benghazi? a very famous guy ingame got killed that night to give you an idea of the types of people playing Eve

edit 2: only trailer that kinda shows what eve is actually like
