I havent read about JGE at all.

Now before I start digging through articles and fansites, is this game skillbased (attribute skill not twitch)? is it a sandbox type game? What I should be asking is it Eve online with twitch combat?

Quick responses as I have to head off to work :)

1. There are no skills in JGE (in the sense of trained, statistically important skills). All the skill comes from the player, including the twitch combat skills. You may unlock licenses that allow you to use certain types of ship and equipment, however. But, there is no skill progression a la EVE.

2. The game is sandbox in so far as you do what you want to do. Levelling up and unlocking certs just by PvPing? Go for it. Want to make a killing on the cornering the market? Knock yourself out. There are no classes (again; certifications are the only vaguely similar factor). Ultimately, you are who you want to be and do what you want to do.
