So I was thinking...

Wouldn't it be cool if every clothing item in the EVE shop came with an in-game redemption code so you could wear it on your character?

It would be cool if they added lots of more clothes to the NeX store...

No it really wouldn't.

^^Not empty quotin'!

The only new thing I want to see in NEx is a "Going Out of Business" sign hung on The Door(TM) and CCP swearing on their beloved mothers' graves that they'll never, ever do that again.

EDIT: I'd still totally pay AUR to fly this, though Twisted

That way when ingame items cost as much as their real life counterpart, at least you're actually getting a real life counterpart?

No, it would break immersion and be rather stupid.

It would! I resent the fact that people emediately thought of the NeX store. The OP was talking about real life clothing you would buy in the EVE store. If you do so I think having an equivalent of the piece of clothing ingame wouldn't be a bad thing per se. It would be gimmicky perhaps. and perhaps better value since the shipping costs of most items is rather high. People where offered free Quafe t shirts when going to fanfest or buying the live stream HD feed.

This has nothing to do with Aurum or the Nex which are both bad things and have effectively suffocated Incarna.

The Chribba is incorrect. It would not be cool to be honest, only lame and meh. It's an MMO not the sims online, content should be created and sold by players.

I'm confused. Paying with $£€ directly or paying with plex is pretty much the same thing to me.
