EVE Online

EVE Online appeared on StreamerHouse in 2018 for 373 viewers, sixteen years into CCP Games' legendary space MMO's operation. By 2018, EVE was already gaming mythology—stories of massive fleet battles, corporate espionage, Ponzi schemes, and players spending years building empires only to lose everything in hours. The game's player-driven economy, single-shard universe, and brutal consequences made every other MMO feel theme-park safe by comparison. CCP had weathered the Monoclegate protests, iterated through expansions, and sustained a devoted playerbase that treated EVE like a second job. The learning curve was famously vertical—spreadsheets, alliance politics, and months of skill training just to participate in endgame content. StreamerHouse streaming it in 2018 introduced viewers to gaming's most uncompromising sandbox, where stories emerged from emergent gameplay rather than scripted quests. EVE wasn't for everyone—probably not for most people—but for those it hooked, nothing else compared. The game continues operating in 2025, testament to CCP building something irreplaceable. StreamerHouse's coverage represented a snapshot of a living legend still defying MMO mortality.
