I personally avoid using weapons that don't make sense to me - so no carrots or sharks. However, I wouldn't downrate a game for adding a sense of humor into equipment design.
I'll use Soul Calibur 4 as an example. I love the game, enjoy playing the new character Hilde, completed all the modes, accumulated enough points to unlock all the customizeable items. But I don't like using surf boards and ears of corn as weapons, so I avoid them. I'm not going to quit or tell others that Soul Calibur sucked because you can get hit with giant squids.
Then again, I would be very annoyed if the carrot or shark happens to be an ultimate weapon for my class.
You all are thinking about this all wrong. There is nothing wrong with the stuff especially the weapons BECAUSE, for example, you are not fighting with a giant carrot.. you're fighting with a sword that looks like a giant carrot... HUGE difference as far as I, and a lot of others, are concerned.
The clown hat, and cheft hat are probably event and crafting items that pretty much all MMOs have from WoW to GW to FFXI
Say what? It's not your intellectual property but NCsoft's and they can do whatever they want with it. You can say you hate it or like it but that's as far as your input (or mine) goes.
my turn for "say what?"
i'm at a total loss as to how you derived whatever you did from my saying i had an ideal concept of the game in my imagination.
i am saying that i would like to imagine that they are going to deliver the game as close to my ideals as possible. that may be a pipe dream or it may happen to a degree that surprises me. i'll find out on day of release.
My point is how can you have an ideal concept of the game when it is not YOUR concept to begin with?
Geez, get off the guys nutsack if you can't even comprehend a pretty simple statement.
All he said was he had an ideal concept in his mind. What the hell does the game not being his have to do with it?
Kind of like when I look at a cute chick and picture what she'd look like naked. Doesn't mean she will look like that, just means that, with the best case scenario in my mind, she will.
I've always wanted to pummel somebody with a wet fish.
There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange mixed affair we call life when a man takes this whole universe for a vast practical joke, though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns, and more than suspects that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own. -- Herman Melville

I agree. But if the "humor-ish stuff" is overdone and constantly in the center of attention, then it gets old very quickly. And then annoying.
Assuming this is serious (didn't read the whole thread), then no, I don't like it.
The whole fantasy setting is getting old and annoying. A little humor or satire might liven things up a bit.

Why the hell are people still crying about htis, its not like you will be forced to wear these, and people wont be using them when raiding / pvping.
Its just fun fluff, people dont start threads in forums because you die you armor a retarded shade of pink so why cry so much about these. Most games have some king of special events content that are just made to look silly. Whining on and on just makes it look like aion hating.
I'm not a no life that sits in front of his computer all day long, I'm an intern that sits in front of his computer all day long.
Nothing like adding silly items to make me take your game less serious.
like a video game is supposed to be serious :P

There is a huge difference than attacking someone with a giant carrot and attacking someone with a sword that looks like a giant carrot. These are clearly weapons that look like a carrot, fish, ect.. not an actually fish or carrot, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Shell and leaf shields look quite good. Rest is just plain silly and totally out of game theme.
