Because they're so utterly, absurdly, obscenely expensive.
Incarna: a great expansion up until CCP mistakenly added an extra 0 to all their store prices, causing massive anger and confusion among players who can't understand why they have to pay 2 billion ISK for a monocle. -- Need a break from EVE? |

I'd just like to point out that a six month subscription costs about 75 bucks. The monocle costs 80.

Where are you getting these numbers? Is that Euro?
1 Monocle = 12000 Aurum 1 Plex = 3500 Aurum
Therefore, 1 Monocle = 3.43 Plex
Also, 1 Plex = $15.00
Therefore, 1 Monocle = $51.45
Though technically you do have to buy four Plexes to pay for it, so if you -only- buy the monocle it's still going to cost you $60.00

As a player who kind of sort of enjoys roleplaying, this release has been shockingly immersion killing.
ergo, this:
Implications of the of the NEX prices on the game storyline
Quote:
Implication: There some aspect of the Yulai Convention preventing ordinary clothing merchants to sell to capsuleers. Despite all their wealth, even something so simple as a dress is out of their reach. And not even a very nice looking dress. So suffer the immortals. Only the NEX corporation can make it through this legislated impass, and devote 99.9999% of the item cost to buying their way through CONCORD fashion police agents.
Nullsec, while nominally lawless, is full of hard working CONCORD fashion police, enforcing the clothing embargo against capsuleers with total efficiency.

Never said his point was less valid. I just think one should do some minute math before they throw numbers into their posts.
I think this is whole ordeal is stupid, quite frankly. CCP should know better. This will blow up in their faces.

try 3 zeros. anything with AUR values of more than 2 digits is stupidly overpriced... From an RP perspective 1 AUR is stupidly overpriced, but the RL value is vaguely tenable if your into that sort of thing... --------
By Grfmsv÷tn, Eyjafjallaj÷kull, Vatnaj÷kull, and Hekla itself... THIS is my sig.

Are you serious? Didn't have any plans of buying any of this, and haven't logged in yet, but lol? That's just silly. Somehow I'm awaiting that little login message to say "lulz, j/k - real expansion 25.06" tomorrow.

Really hate to correct you but one plex is now $19.something now :p close to 20 dollars.
