Then I sat down to tackle this task and started rewinding everything I experienced in New Eden during 2025.

And then I realized... I already had a very strong piece. Not because I’m lazy or looking for a shortcut, but because this video captures something essential about EVE Online in 2025, something you don’t see on the surface.

What has kept me logging in for over two decades is not just mechanics, balance, or new features. It’s passionate people doing passionate things.

Look at them. You can feel it. Despite being developers, they still love the game and its smallest details, just like we do as capsuleers.

Through their answers, jokes, smiles, and honest struggles to choose between options, I see the care and dedication they carry year after year.

This is EVE Online in 2025, shaped by people who still believe in it.

Kudos to CCP Games, and especially to Hilmar, whose charismatic gravity continues to attract and inspire so many talented people.
