There are the Amarr, a strictly regimented caste-based order that believes in religious conformity and supports slavery. There are the Gallente-the only true democracy of the game, a federation of many different worlds. Five different factions-the de facto “races” of EVE-have populated space. Mankind is still fundamentally homo sapiens, though we’ve changed over time. After millennia, humans once again travel the cosmic byways and have repopulated their adopted galaxy, spreading across thousands of solar systems. But due to a cosmic calamity, the human race was cut off from its homeworld and ultimately backslid into a nearly feral condition, forgetting about space flight or high technology, just scratching out a basic existence, struggling to survive. This game takes place in a galaxy at the other end of the Universe, where, thousands of years from now, humanity has come to inhabit. There are no orcs, no magical powers, no fantasy setting. Game was released in early November, and since then, may Mac players have joined the ranks.ĮVE Online is an MMOG of a different stripe from World of Warcraft. So it was exciting news early in 2007 when it was revealed that CCP Games was readying a Macintosh version of EVE Online, its MMOG set in outer space.
World of Warcraft has pretty much dominated the MMOG scene.
Massively multiplayer online games-sometimes called MMOGs or MMOs-appear far too rarely on the Mac.
