You guys are making it sound fun all over again, but I fear if I try it again I'll just end up getting bored after several weeks like I did before.
- Join a nullsec alliance. This takes lots of setup (and sometimes requires consistent activity) but gives you an environment with lots of ISK, politics, and warfare being tossed around.
- Stop aspiring to be the big, epic player and play the game. If you do stuff you feel is more of a requirement ("two more hours of ratting before I can afford a cruiser") instead of stuff you want to do, you will burn out. It's the journey, not the destination, as they say. A famous stealth bomber player (with his own large-scale corporation) got to where he is today by just playing the game as he wanted to (in a cloaky, cloaky missile ship) instead of "doing what you should do". Literally, find what parts of the game you like and play that. Also, selling PLEX for ISK is not cheating and is a notable alternative source of money.
