I am not digging a grave, NCSoft is the 8th biggest venture in Korea there's not enough spade I can use to dig a grave fast enough for them.

Besides, changing the sex of ones character and expect them not to want to change the name and expecting them to pay another amount is a trap. Anyone that is so picky/particular, until they need and want to change the looks and sex of their characters wouldn't be caught dead running around in the game with a female character with a masculine name or a male character name Mona? Seriously.

However, its totally okay to keep the name change only function.

Its common sense that sex change should comes with a name change, you are not supporting the game, you are happily getting trap.

There's a line between loving a game and willingly letting them trap you.

Not only is this idea of including name change with extreme makeover a good idea, it would probably boost the sale of the extreme makeover pack. How many players wanted to change their character name, read the thread here on guru to find out, but because the name change is nothing else but name change, i am sure lots of players don't bother buying it, after all, we can always create another one with the right name and features. However, if name change comes with extreme makeover, that is another case.

A gender change doesn't imply a name change.

There are many unisex names.

And name changes can be made only once per month, while gender changes almost anytime you (can pay and) want.

Who would really switch around their gender more than once a month though?

The only reason I have yet to buy an extreme token is because I don't want to pay for a name change after. Why wouldn't they include it? The extreme token is already a single use... Not much value there lol.

Not all players care, but there's nothing wrong with caring.
You can like chose how you char will look like when you create it, it is not some random madness in creating a character.

Hence, name change and sex change token should be cheaper

and Extreme Makeover should include everything

Makes sense for OP's reasons, really.

It's not something I intend to buy, because I'm not eager to spend money on that (bonus missions are another story altogether) but it seems quite a reasonable request, and if I ever did decide to change my character in that way, I'd want that option.

Were it not for the cost, I'd probably change my character's appearance and gender constantly for the entertainment.

(Actually if they had some sort of permanent unlock, I'd probably take that, because hey, that'd actually be worth it.)
