NC Fail At It Again

The iPhone app was ok, seeing as Koreans paid the same for theirs...but this?

Greetings Daevas!

Have you wanted to stand out in a crowd? Always wanted to cut through your enemies with a chainsaw? Now you can customize your character’s weapons through our Aion Store! These weapon skins, applied once to a character of your choosing, can be remodeled repeatedly onto the weapon of your choice.

Find your new look at the Aion Store!

Here's the punch line:

You can get ONE skin for ONE character for $10.

I don't really mind selling skins/pets, they don't affect the game so who cares...but at least make them reasonably priced. $10 for one skin on one character is unacceptable.

That's pretty ridiculous, the only thing I am willing to pay over 10 for is the lightsaber.. because it's the best looking thing in the game.

**Corwen** · 2010-10-20 17:18

I'm sure there are going to be plenty of people buying these skins for real money to sell them to people for kinah.

**Hitoshura** · 2010-10-20 17:37

Someone paid 60m for a lukae's saber skin.. it's temping.

**Lostprophet** · 2010-10-20 19:18

The skin which makes sins glow in the dark....we need more of those IMHO.

My boyfriend bought two of the swords off someone in-game for 4.5 mil and 5 mil.

**Senji** · 2010-10-20 20:16

Better deal than $10 dyes and $30 blue wings^^

I was under the impression that NCsoft has plans to switch Aion and L2 entirely to f2p with cash shops.

**Hitoshura** · 2010-10-20 20:43

^Good point, it's not like they haven't pulled some shit like this before. This 1 year sub for that CRAP magazine that nets you those wings, etc.

heh only when drawn in attack stance, just like *surprise* star wars.

**Pyree** · 2010-10-20 21:35

Considering the item is named Lukea's Saber... I think Star Wars is exactly what they were going for. >.>

**Flattus** · 2010-10-21 00:27

I bet they'll release armor skins too, more ways to get stupid people to spend money

**Pyree** · 2010-10-21 00:55

Oh, I guess they changed the name recently. It's now called Aether Blade, used to be Lukea's Saber... Probably dodging legal issues.

And I wouldn't be surprised if they start offering the L2 costumes for sale.

**Rehont** · 2010-10-21 13:26

They just need to go ahead and move it to F2P with microtransactions ... cause thats what they seem to be aiming for
