And that is where I think this game is bound to fail. Will there be enough dust players in the first place to have an impact on the eve universe ? Will these players be interested to make a commitment for months to a corp \/ alliance ? Will the DUST game be fun if they stay in their starter corp ? And what impact will that have ? Will there be mutual chat channels, and if so, will they be different from the rookie help channel ?<\/p>\n
Will this interaction, the merge of communities really happen ? It seems to me that the game will fall or succeed depending on that concept.<\/p>\n
