CCP has made terrific progress in overcoming the stability issues that existed during testing. This is a critical development; these performance issues were often cited as the biggest drawback to an otherwise enormous, highly ambitious and almost completely player-driven concept. EVE probably won't address every online gamers' tastes. In particular, the initial learning curve is fairly long, and the travel and combat elements aren't likely to suit players who want fast-paced action. On the other hand, the game offers a wealth of complexity and freedom in areas like character skill customization and its economy and political systems. If the thought of an online space simulation with limitless possibilities intrigues you, and you don't mind trading a slower pace for depth, then EVE Online is highly recommended as a title you should consider.
