So CCP's redoing the Noble Exchange as part of the release for Kronos. The first change people will notice is that it's been rebranded as the "New Eden Store". You'll have a new button added to your Neocom bar that you can click on that will take you to the store interface (it will also be available from the character selection screen). It's a full-screen UI rather than a window, so it's more like the character customization tool than the market. The UI is also pretty clunky at the moment: Filters don't work right, there's horrid animations you have to sit through after each purchase that you can't skip, etc.

The second thing people will notice: New clothing items, and they are reasonably priced. Current prices on Singularity for the new items range from 400 AUR for pants or shoes, to 900 AUR for coats, jackets and dresses. These prices also hold true for both male and female items - a male avatar's coat costs the same as a female avatar's dress. In addition, Aurum is now an account-wide asset, and items purchased in the NES on one character can be redeemed by another character on that account.

Anyway, I made an imgur album. Enjoy.

Morwen's Law:
1) The number of capsuleer women who are bisexual is greater than the number who are lesbian.
2) Most of the former group appear lesbian due to a lack of suitable male partners to go around.
3) The lack of suitable male partners can be summed up in most cases thusly: interested, worth the air they breathe, available; pick two.

I can see why they called them costume-y. Still, new clothing items! Huzzah!

Edit; just read some of those descriptions.

Oh, god. They're terrible.

Note: most descriptions of designer clothing in the real world are also terrible.

Glad the prices are set reasonably, although there was already a blog about this months or years ago. Doing some quick math it looks like a new wardrobe from head to toe costs slightly less than an average LoL skin.

I do think it a bit funny that the Amarr-themed tops are revealing and inviting, for lack of better words. Show off your divine cleavage, and whatnot. I really cannot wait for all this, though. Are those all the new tops for men? There's a painful lack in clothing that bridges the gap between "supreme military commander" and "lazy guy wearing a camo tank top."

I think there's a color variant or two, but not owning any male characters, I didn't really give enough of a damn to spend the extra time buying each item individually just to load it in the preview - currently none of these items are easily linkable on Sisi (r-click > link doesn't work), and you can't preview items properly from the store.

I think the clothes for the ladies are designed to be covert tests of faith. Any Amarr men caught drooling at the sight is obviously unpious and should receive 10 lashings doled out by the local priesthood.

Also, where's my duct-taped greasy jackets?

I never realized how big Morwen's boobies were...or maybe its the clothes that accentuate their size? Something to ponder.

I'm not sure why people assume the Amarr are prudes. It might be lechery isn't considered particularly sinful in that faith?

Because they are? It's stated on items in-game (the Exotic Dancer ones, specifically).

That being said, this dress would be an issue ONLY if it was a shirt. It is not a shirt. It is a jacket. Which means it is intended to be worn over other garments, not alone. If someone chooses to wear it with cleavage free-to-view, then that says something about that person and not about the Amarr.

You wouldn't wear a jacket with that kind of cut RL without something under it (in most cases), nor would Amarr.

[spoiler][/spoiler]

These. How do we get these, and please tell me they won't be from more special edition crap or race-restricted.

All they said was "These are actually redesigned old costumes that we've had ready for a while and wanted to put into the game." No mention of how we get them.

That's teh outfits from this pic, isn't it ?

Yes it is. Though at least for the Amarrian ones and the gloved female one, none of those specific colorations are in the NES at this time.
