    Charging 500$'s for a mount and god knows how much for housing will drive away the most loyal players who have spent the most time and money.

    With the removal of boe and crown crates added it certainly feels like some of the spirit of the game is dying.

    Console Buff timers coming do add a little heat to my ice cold heart tho.

    If by "spirit of the game" you mean "easy access" regarding BoE then I agree. This game NEEDS more things you have to actually WORK for instead of buy from someone that obtained it.

    A new player now has to grind 4 hours for mats to sell if they want to upgrade ONE piece to gold.

    Before a single robust ring dropping would have done the trick.

    All end game PVEer's are effectively being removed from the economy.

    I hope people like grinding solo -_-

    I for one welcome a good means of making gold that doesn't involve the player market. Finally, people can make good gold without resorting to trading/selling and crime...

    Don't you worry, I was there and saw. Just recently I pushed a bit harder for an answer on this - and tried to ensure the question was clear as possible so it wasn't misunderstood.

    -No plans on continuing the current dungeons stories (like Vaults of Madness)
    -Magicka DK getting buffed in Update 13 (this includes Dragon Blood although it sounds like they're changing the ability, rather than just buffing)
    -NO FLYING MOUNTS. Maybe one day hovering/floating.. but they're not working on it.
    -Rich and Wheeler are probably gone to get a beer right now
    -Future update they will try to change something so we start putting points into health instead of just our mag/stam pool.
    -No cheap respec for Update 12 (not surprised)
    -I complained about the terrible 2 traits on monster sets and Rich said should be easier since drops are guaranteed.. and "Also, ideally we'd like to make all traits interesting..."
    -not increasing bank space anytime soon

    Oh I thought this was interesting!

    Hello, one more question, on pax /u/ZOS_RichLambert said that he believed IC telvar sets had jewlery included in them aswell in one tamriel, I can however confirm they do not, not powerful assault or shieldbreaker etc have no jewlery or weapons in their set items, is this intended or oversight? thank you very much.

    [–]ZOS_RichLambert [score hidden] 14 minutes ago
    You are right... it got missed. We will get it fixed.

    Sounds like telvar sets are getting jewelry!

    -"Pretty sure I answered this one already - but yes we are working on showing Buff / Debuffs for the console UI." (I assume they'll give it to PC at the same time too as per usual)

    Not increasing bank space anytime soon...

    Does that include when housing is released, cause if I can't store *** in my house then what is the point. Like that's the most basic point of owning a house. If they can't get that right then there is something wrong with them.

    Actually the most profitable way to make gold will still be the player market. Buying low and selling high. Stacking gold tempers then jacking the prices every dlc.

    The average player can really only grind mats. I don't think casuals get gold gear in PvP.

    If you don't already have millions to gamble with, good luck!

    Not everyone will agree what is best for the game but time will tell . No one is hoping the game will lose players or die off but another mass exodus like we had when ZOS made the mistake of introducing vet levels will be too much a second time . ZOS corrected that mistake but is sliding the dangerous slope right after regaining some traction .

    New games and opportunities in 2017 are coming and ZOS should consider this danger . Not fixing issues like balance for a long time make decisions about leaving easier for people . Feeling being listened too is not important if always ignored anyways . There is a real competition gearing up for this game soon and one wrong move could make or break the end game shelf life here .

    I hope ZOS makes positive changes .

    Weren't Guild Wars 2 and Wildstar and Black Desert and Fallout 4 and others meant to be serious competition that may put ESO in danger? Yet it still remains.

    I am off playing Dragon Age: Inquisition (finally!!) at the moment. But ESO sure as heck fire will still be here after that and after I've played through FF XV and others.

    I can guarantee you are off the mark saying "everyone" will be disappointed with housing. Plenty of collectors in Tamriel that will simply adore being able to put their beloved Trophies on display! Let's also not forget the Training Dummy. People may argue it is useless without a log but even without a log it has SOME merit.

    Have to agree, here, after seeing how player housing worked out in other games like Archeage I can clearlly see the real reasons why ZoS have taken the time to work on this new introduction...........it has a huge potential for cash income, nothing more.

    ESO is the only AAA graphics MMO out right now, and they are turning it into a phone game.

    What robust ring that a new player has access of? Also it not even a removal of boe. The sets are just being move back to the places where they use be anyway. They were just lower level sets drop in overland before they became higher level trial sets.

    New IC sets which were added have jewelry, but the originals (Shield Breaker, Black Rose, etc) do not have jewelry or weapons.
