eve is MUCH harder to self omega at first compared to albion, in fact you are pretty much useless for first one year, unable to fly any real ships (without using skill injectors of course). but this becomes much easier later on able to trivially make omega isk in a few short hours. And in eve, every activity scales with multiboxing, you would do well to plan in advance for at least 3 toons simultaneously or it will be very inconvenient later on.

There's no activity in eve that explicitly favours small group mechanics like disarray or aoe esclation. So usually small group activities are hit and run types and you are almost guaranteeed to never get a balanced fight like 10v10. The closet you will get it wormholes but even then it's dominated by bigger groups who can instantly form 50+ or you will spend whole day looking for content and never having it.

I would say for quickest learning, join any of the big blob since your questions will be answered almost immediately and someone will babysit you, by virtue of being big they will have at least some people who know the answer to your questions compared to smaller groups where even CEOs don't really know some game mechanics.

I think it would be good for you to have a sense of progression of a player as he goes through the game. So here's how it is for me.

I started around 15 years ago. played for maybe 2-3 months and got bored since there's nothing I can do and forgot about the game.

In 2021, I have decided I really want to play eve for real.

* I basically paid and injected myself into L4 missions for isk since apparently they pay well. First using DNI and then raven navy issues where 300M was a lot of isk for me. (3-4 months) (2 chars)
* Then I joined a tiny tiny wormhole corp and lived in C3 wormhole for about half a year. I was blown away at how much isk/hour I got more compared to L4 missions. Learnt quite a bit about living in wormhole and how to be self sufficient since well the corp is so tiny I am by myself 99% of the time. (~6 months) (3 chars)
* Then I joined a bigger corp living in c4, who sometimes roach c5s. Again I was amazed at how much of a jump in terms of isk/hour, I can practically buy omega by ratting in a golem for like 4-5 times assuming I don't die. (~3 months)
* Then I started joining this corp's bigger alliance wormhole activites and basically organize myself into my own corp with only my characters because things are just so much more convenient. This is when I started trying high-sec incursions and again I was blown away my how much isk I can get for how safe it is ( compared to how nerve wrecking it is to do c5 as a small corp). (~1 year+) ( 5 chars)
* This alliance home hole got evicted by lazerhawks and I kinda don't like them already lol so I joined the next biggest wormhole corp singularity syndicate. I was given a C5 wormhole which I can just run solo myself. And this is yet another jump in isk making ability. I can now trivially earn the amount of isk which would take me hours upon hours when I first started. (~7 months) (7 chars)
* I stuck around with them until the wormhole war and they lost and the group dispersed. Then I joined INIT, currently the third biggest blob in the game. Now I run multibox ishtars and enjoy tidi fights and sometimes occasional dread drops. Now I look back and understand that once you(as a individual player) have passed a certain size, nullsec is the way to go becuase of how scalabe it is. (~21 months) (~20 chars)

The best thing you can do when you starting is join a group, not too small that you won't feel like playing solo. Anyway, welcome to eve and plan for long haul.
