既然是创刊号就来想想什么是ESIM吧。
首先呢这是个网页游戏（这不是废话嘛）刚刚进入游戏后会分成两大类人，一类是玩不下去的，一类是坚持玩下去的（这TMD还是废话哇）
那么就要问了是什么让人不喜欢这个游戏，又是什么让人喜欢上这个游戏并且玩下去呢？
长久以来大多数游戏的目的都是为了满足人动物性的需求，常规游戏所给予的目标很明确，最初的游戏无非就那么几点，征服，竞技，比拼，例如史诗级的网游WOW。PVE就是征服BOSS，通过各种努力来克服副本设计的重重阻碍来征服BOSS得到满足感，掉落的装备一来是可以提升对抗B0SS的能力，二来其实就是为了显摆，这点便牵扯到了比拼，例如在BOSS战中ＤＰＳ的比拼，治疗量的比拼，关于比拼也是人类天生的进化与生存的需求。PVP方面，竞技场队伍的排名，战场的胜负等等牵扯到的也是，征服，竞技，比拼，这里就不多说了。
上述的是常规的游戏，绝大多数市面上我们能接触到的大型游戏基本都是围绕着这几点来设计完成的。这类游戏吸引人留住人的方式很简单，在刚刚进入游戏的时间段，游戏会不断的提示你告诉你，你在变强，你在变强，你在变强。然后会演变成，用很多方式来出催促，有人比你强，你快变强，有人比你强，你快变强。（不知道你们有没有这样的体会玩这样的游戏会很累，因为游戏在像你老板一样催你完成工作）
另外的一类游戏，比较小众化的游戏，沙盘游戏。我接触过的就像EVE，ESIM，一样的游戏。这类游戏的其实没有太明确的目的，而且你也很难去达到一个终极的目的，例如，玩WOW你的目的可能是过了某个BOSS，那么你会达到这样的目的，ＥＳＩＭ你的目的是什么？征服全球？打下全球所有的土地？你觉得可能吗？这就是一个难以取达到的终极目的。这类游戏的主要吸引人的方式并不是给予你一个明确的目的让你去达到然后获得满足感。
那么这类游戏吸引人的地方是什么？我个人觉得其中之一是拥有，并且拥有带给你的满足感
为什么说是拥有呢，因为你拥有的东西永远不会过时，不会无用，不会贬值，ESIM的我不多说了大家都懂，像ＥＶＥ这样的沙盘游戏，你所拥有的舰船啊，资产啊，包括垃圾，无论你多久没有玩你再上线，它们的价值是多少还是多少。而像ＷＯＷ这类的游戏，其实装备对于你来说只是暂时的拥有，这件东西会过时，会落后，会无用。拥有一件目前来说最好最顶级的装备所带给你的满足感是什么？其实是因为这件装备是最好最顶级的装备，版本更迭，其实你就失去了拥有。你再也无法体会刚刚拿到这件装备所带来的满足感了，因为它所标志的最好最顶级的装备这项条件已经丢失了。
沙盘类游戏真正的魅力所在其实是自由，自己去订立的目标，目的，而不是游戏设计者给你去订立的目标，目的。就比如我，我的目标是开很多很多家公司，赚钱。看到很多很多的G我就会满足。有些人，会想变强，会希望在战场上打出更多的输出。每个人的目的都不一样，而且每人会催促着你。
这便是这个游戏的魅力，以及能玩下去，和不能玩下去的人的原因。
很多地方并没有想的太深入，很多地方存在偏见，以后会拿出来大家一起讨论，例如：我拿到一件装备所带来的荣耀，其实是40人或者25人一起努力的结果，极低的掉率。例如；我只是休闲玩家，我喜欢的只是跟大家一起聊天一起玩。例如：我所体会到的是兄弟们一起团结努力拼搏的过程。之类等等。
纯手打，各位看官见谅轻喷，以上纯属偏见，不代表本人观点。
无论您喜不喜欢，点个订阅吧，谢谢

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
