I think Nova's story was a bit too complex. The story overlaps in a lot of places, especially with the Aurorans. I think the idea of the five houses was a little too large. Where as EV:O, the storyline is complex, yet simple. There is also the issue of storylines in EVN, you can only choose one to do in each pilot, but in EV:O, you can do most of them in the one pilot.
Most people will probably disagree with me here, but I think that the EV:O missions had a lot more quality in them. I understand what Cooldude meant when he said that EVN was too good. I was playing EV:O for a while now, but I've started playing the new EVN TC: Polycon EV. It's pretty good, but I haven't found any storylines yet.

**I agree that five houses is not needed. Why should there be five parts of government when there is already a government? They try to justify it by saying in Nova History preamble that Federation only manages to survive with the constant warring of houses. And doing the UE, Miranu, Zachit, and Strand storylines in one pilot was nice... sad that you can't do in Nova.

I am eager to try to ansver mission questions -
Does anyone know if you will be able to use EV:O plug-ins with the EV:O to EVN port?

PortAuthority will be able to handle most of this automatically, but for best performance, the developer will probably still have to adjust things a bit.
