Two things:

1. This video is not new or at least it does not feel new. I know nearly nothing about EVE and I have seen a scanning demo just like this before.

2. How boring is that!!! Moving five points with decreasing sphere radii over and over again??!!! How exciting!! How novel!!! How dull!!!

This kind of gameplay mechanic is exactly what is wrong with EVE.

Your comment is exactly what you'd expect from someone who has never played EVE. Scanning is only 5% of what EVE is all about, so you can play for years without even giving it a try.

Scanning can be fun, I do it and find it fun. Doing hacking, salvaging and Archaeology sites is a complete wast of time in my opinion. I've never managed to make more than a few mil from them.

And just in case your wondering, I only scan low sec space from 0.3 to 0.1 and still never made any good isk from them.

Most money is in WH and some good plexes.
