I can't believe I passed this game up for so many years. I'm kicking myself in the ass for it now! I love everything about Eve. It's not for everyone. The skill level for every aspect of the game is high, however you can just do simple stuff as well. It requires a lot of time but you can also do fine casually. What you get out of the game depends on what you put into it. I've stopped playing many games, including WoW (after 14+ years of playing) to play Eve. It's just so much more than a game. Plus, who doesn't love flying spaceships along the far reaches of a remote galaxy?
