ENB mentioned in new EVE Online documentary


Recommended Posts

Thanks to returning pilot Famicom earlier today in the Server Status thread, is the following link to:

 

EVE Online | Down the Rabbit Hole

 

 

The video was Posted 21 hours ago (on 1 Nov 2023), and already has 590,765 views! 598,741 views from the time I finished this post!

Duration: 5 hours, 55 minutes, 12 seconds.

One of the comments says this comprehensive documentary about the history of EVE took 2 years to create.

 

Earth and Beyond makes an appearance at this timestamp: https://youtu.be/BCSeISYcoyI?t=3694

 

I thought I would re-post Famicom's link here, as any discussion should be kept out of the Server Status thread as each comment there will ping the server admin and drive him nuts if a conversation takes off!

  • Winlander changed the title to ENB mentioned in new EVE Online documentary

Pretty crazy how impactful the presence of ENB "refugees" was in the EVE space! To be honest, I hadn't thought of this game for literal decades until it was mentioned in this video, and watching some videos of people logging in, creating characters and exploring space with all the chonky UI noises as were customary at the time suffused me with such nostalgia that I went ahead and see if maybe someone reverse-engineered the server architecture leading to the existance of private servers ala Ragnarok Online and lo and behold here we are. Hopefully the login server gets reanimated soonish!

In the meantime, I think anyone playing this game will get a kick out of watching the documentary as well, especially since it's also kind of a love letter to space sim genre enthusiasts as well. It's running time is a few minutes short of six hours, so it should keep you occupied for a hot minute :)
