Chronicle, Fan Video Examine Life in New Eden

Fans of EVE Online Chronicles, which are stories that examine the various aspects of life in New Eden, have a couple new items to check out on the game's official Web site.

First, CCP Abraxas has written a new Chronicle called "Scars," which focuses on a younger Thukker named Yane who saves an older Thukker, Olaer. When they get back to Yane's apartment, Olaer discovers a "profound history" while there. You can find a list of all Chronicles here.

Second, EVE player Dire Lauthris created a fan video based on a Chronicle called "The Breakout." According to the producer, "This film covers a bit from the Caldari-Gallente war. It's set 200 years ago, before any of the 4 races had pod technology." It features in-game footage, and you can check it out here.

I play eve no longer, but I always keep up with the chronicles. The stories are typically not incorporated into the gameplay in any way, with a couple of the longer series being the exceptions. They make good reads regardless, if you know the backstory of the game. If you don't, it's all in the backstory section of their website.

It is unfortunate that the story plays so little a part in the game, because the stories and background are generally of good quality.
