Yahtzee had some good points, especially with the skills, but I think the very thing that keeps people in EVE is the very thing that drove him away: the sheer openness of the game. He seems to be weirded out by the fact that EVE has no beginning and no end, and an almost complete lack of any linear gameplay.

He also went into the game it seems ready to evaluate it on the same criteria as other MMO's, which in my opinion is a mistake. It's hard to judge something as open as EVE on the same criteria as something as linear as Warcraft. I'm not saying EVE is exempt from critique just for being unique, I'm just saying a more objective attitude going into it might have helped.

But he is Yahtzee, so its nothing out of the normal.
