EVE Online is complicated

[Mannix]

In fact, I'd say very complicated. I played through the two hour tutorial today and I've since been trying to remember when a game's teaching level was even half as long. The UI is just jam packed full of stuff, and it's a bit overwhelming just trying to remember where things are. Do you veterans still get completely befuddled in a dogfight or did the UI just become intuitive for you after a while? Are there any mods or addons to streamline the process? The game seems interesting so far, and I'd welcome any suggestions on how to make the process a bit less like trying to read an encyclopedia while piloting a flying unicycle that you might have.
