I am happy to make my triumphant return to EVE. College stuff is done, and now it's just the long waiting until April 1st, when I will have all of my decisions. For your information, I have applied to the following colleges and universities:
- MIT (they deferred me in Early Action; first choice)
- Harvard
- Columbia
- Stanford
- Carnegie Mellon
- Washington University in St. Louis
- University of Virginia
- Centre College
Today was the first day in a long time that I've been able to do anything more than update my skills. I ran a mission, made some ISK, and consolidated some of my stuff. Pretty basic, but it's the first step to getting back into the game.
What about Incursion? Well, I haven't been to any of the post-expansion events (though I went to one a few months ago), but I have thoroughly enjoyed the character creator. Character customization is my favorite part of any and every video game, so needless to say, I was delighted by this. I tried to make my character looks as much like me as possible, but I was turned off by a few things. For one, there were too few hairstyles. The one that most emulated me was the one that was the least "out there," so I feel that it will be little overused. Also, why are we forced to wear makeup? I know you can turn the opacity all the way down, but it's just kinda odd. Along the lines of color, though, I feel that clothes should be completely customizable in regards to color. The drab olive, camo, and black swatches were too run-of-the-mill. Finally, although my character's chin was rather narrow, in portrait mode it got all big and fat. So I look like a chub in my picture.
Anyway, that's all that I have to blog about now, but be ready for more posts and a Blog Banter. For the latter, I'm not sure if I'll do the most recent one or just wait for next month's. Dilemma...
Fly safe!
