Earlier today, Falcon, formerly known as CCP Falcon formally announced his resignation to CCP Games. After an overwhelmingly positive reaction to his gameplay suggestions on a Reddit thread, he was inspired to set off on his own. “I want a new game, and a new me to go along with my new hair”, says Falcon in his farewell post on the forums. “After receiving such amazing feedback from the community, I knew what I had to do. I’d make my own EVE, with blackjack and hookers.” he explained.



Just after announcing his departure, he soon began discussing his plans for the future, including the details of his new project: N-EVE “Nearly Eve”. “The idea for the name is two fold: To stay as close as possible to the original game that I am remaking, and as an homage to my favorite runescape NPC, Nieve.” Falcon says, giving his Nieve body pillow a hug.



When concerns were raised over copyright concerns, most notably that he’s basically just copying the entirety of EVE Online and making some balance changes, Falcon was seemingly unmoved. “I plan on moving to Texas and making use of the legal system there, as we all know it is the legislative powerhouse of the world.”



Fundraising campaigns have already begun across all platforms, including Kickstarer, Patreon, and GoFundMe, to name a few. Falcon was very transparent with where the funding would be going. “The funds will be providing me and my team an office space in Dallas, Texas, as well as our new art assets we’ll have to purchase. We plan on just buying all the assets from Cloud Imperium Games’ Star Citizen project, as they’re basically all just EVE ships anyways.”



Announcements for a Permaband tour around the world to help raise projects were also a major highlight of all the announcements. “We’ll be singing mostly crowd favorites, as well as new songs from our upcoming album, ‘Asset Danger’.” This was the first mention of the new album, much to the excitement of those who first read the forum thread.



“Speaking of asset danger”, Falcon laughing joyously said, “that will be one of the key features of N-EVE. No asset safety whatsoever. If that doesn’t have you convinced to switch, I don’t know what will.”



Seems the humble opinion of one man may cause massive repercussions in the gaming industry. Stay tuned to EVE Onion for any updates regarding Falcon and his new project.
