Dear CCP: Abolish NeX and implement player-driven crafting for vanity items.

You read that right, kids.

Incarna was a royal clusterf*ck as I see it, and mostly because of the NeX's implementation. Know why? Here's what:

CCP, you missed a prime opportunity to pull in new users with the potential implementation of a player-operated crafting system to produce vanity items. Instead, you've had the opposite effect with the NeX.

In Star Wars Galaxies, we had crafters who could produce clothes, weapons, and accessories of any type with any customization that was available. This was a huge draw to the more sedentary MMO players who weren't into PVP or conflict, but more about making the isk and socializing. (Not that there's a lack of such activities)

Therefore, I recommend that CCP consider for a future expansion: implement a player-driven crafting system for vanity items, such as furniture, clothes, environment decor (for Player Establishments and CQ), among other things. Get rid of NeX entirely - it has become the white elephant in the room.

Of course, it shouldn't be easy to make fancy items.

I'm an idiot because I'm getting tired of the toxic, poisonous atmosphere in EVE Online. I thought Incarna would be a breath of fresh air, and it instead turned out to be choked with stale dust that didn't do my lungs any justice.

P.S. If you had any business sense, you'd realize CCP was trying to pull in new, "unconventional" players for EVE with Incarna.

OP, you worry too much about things - you should just ignore them if you don't like them. You don't have to have an opinion for everything.

Oh, and NeX is just fine and cool for those that can afford it.

I hope CCP will do both, keep the Nex Store for more exclusive items and player-created ones that are more basic.

Yes, I worry a lot about things, because I have too much of a "worldview" on things, and just can't be arsed to be selfish.

I know what everybody in EVE thinks of that: "WTF? You're kidding, right?"

The reality is that if you can THINK it, it can exist.
