The Doctor Who crossover is explained thus, by someone from the other side:

https://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/rwl7z7/doctor_who_fan_here_something_i_think_you_need_to/

The long and short of it is - NFTs. Of course it's NFTs. Apparently the BBC got involved with some company in 2020 who was promising an "online NFT card game" using Doctor Who as a foundation, and whilst it never went anywhere then, and no game exists even now, of course Pearl Abyss got a whiff of it and here we are.

Guaranteed the next part of this "event" is going to be NFTs.

lol Eve is dead. A hollowed out carcass of a space game.

lmao welp, I actually really love Eve-Online, but this would be the end for me.

Cross promotional content is the absolute cutting edge in this industry, and it grows our brand. Remember the floss dance all the kids were doing? What if I told you that floss dance came from a video game!?

I’m not making GBS threads you here jerkoff that meme dance came from a video game. Your 12 your old nephew wasn’t just gyrating, that fat gently caress was building a brand.

What was Fortnite’s 2020 revenue? Any guesses? Any of you loving troglodytes wanna throw a number out there? How about 1.8? That’s a number.

How about 1.8 loving billion.

And how did they do it? Because your brains are so loving small and mead addled you can’t conceive, let me tell you.

Cross. Brand. Promotional. Content.

And that is why I’m here boys and girls. This is an errand of mercy. Pearl Abyss sent me down here to show you how you pay the loving bills… because the next play is we put your rear end on a corner and sell your holes - okay Torgeir?

You have failed three times to break into the Japanese market. You know why? I don’t give a gently caress what your Icelandic bullshit fairy market research says Thor.

You couldn’t cut it in Japan because your spaceships got no titties.

All you had to do was a little cross brand promotion with nubile schoolgirl dating simulator 4… ship skins, avatars, a little naked cat girl who dances in the bottom of your UI. You swap IP and let all your horny whales gently caress the robot chick, while Japanese players get T&A skins for their titans… from the cash shop.

Imagine it… vaporizing your enemies with terrifying laser beams fired from giant anime titties. What fat thirty five year old virgin isn’t going to blow five figures on that?

Are you in love with my vision of the future of EVE yet? Are you starting to get what I’m talking about here!? I think you are…

By show of hands: How many of you are edging right now, just thinking about a Marvel’s Avenger’s Eve viral marketing campaign?

I know you are. I loving smell it.

nobody cares


same, to an extent

cross universe cameo for Eve online does seem pretty drat dumb, but they're always doing dumb poo poo for the holidays, honestly who cares

there's a real life guy who is all but formally recognized in canon lore as Space Pope

it's the NFT slippery slope that's got me concerned. Eva mine still has one of the best examples of real money reserve currencies in a video game out there. don't gently caress that up, CCP.
