yeah but thats RIFTS, you can pretty much do whatever you want as far as character creation. I mean, I once created a Crazie that could take apart a smoke grenade to take out the smoke cartradge and replace it with a special blend of Nitrious Oxide (laughing gas) and Potassium Chloride (deadly gas) and it was mixed with green dye No.4. He also had special MegaDamage armor crafted to look like a purple suit. So theres a huge difference between what you can do with tabletop games, and what you can do in a F2P MMO.
Anyway, the reason all of that is so expensive is because it was intended to be a penya sink. An attempt to drain money out of the community to lower in game prices. However like most of the people in this thread, many of the people didnt care about what their character looked like. Especially when your character is covered in armor anyway or when you can buy special wigs from the CS.
