Not only do you get a sense of place but you can use your vision as a weapon. The game fully supports the use of your viewpoint in a way that was previously relegated to a control stick, making for a more natural experience. It leaves you right in the action and this is where Eve shines. VR is made for cockpit based games like this and much like Battlezone all of the HUD details are littered around your dashboard which do not overfill you with information or confuse for the sake of it. There is nothing quite like blinking between loading screens to have you sat in the cockpit of your own ship. What it does give you is the VR experience. Other than this for single player you get some basic training missions for each type of ship you can get and very little else. You get to play a scene in which you witness the first death of your pilot however this is just a twenty minute mission which ends just as it is starting to get good. You play as a clone of a pilot that died during a large battle, With your consciousness downloaded into new clone pilot bodies so that you can cheat death and provide your expertise to each battle again and again. As you start the game you get a brief introduction to who you are. Favouring online dogfights over campaigns.

Recently we had the relative flop that was Dust 514 which had the ambition to try and link a first person action game to the MMO directly. This is not the first time that Eve has appeared in another genre of course. Shying away from the space corporation simulation to create a new yet familiar game type.
A new starship combat game based on the Eve MMO universe.

Both of which requiring tactics such as early access involvement or kickstarter backing to get going.

This was of course until recently where the space simulator came back in the form of Elite: Dangerous and Star Citizen on PC. This could be down to the lack of variance in gameplay scenarios or locales but it is a genre that has been missed by many, including myself. Over the years it seems that the space simulator had somewhat fallen out of favour. They were often used to show off new technology launches as a means to show off high detailed ships, special effects and controller inputs with classics such as Colony Wars, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron and Asteroids coming to mind.
