@ZOS_GinaBruno: As many others have said, I would like an Official Response to this question. You don't need to go into details of price or whatever, just a simple "Yes" or "No" will do.
The question is thus: Will there be a Digital Gold Edition Upgrade offered in the Crown Store, just as there is an existing Digital Imperial Edition Upgrade in the Crown Store currently?
That is all.
This feels kind of like a middle finger. I am a newer player, and I have just recently paid for the base game, and all of those DLCs too. Now everything I paid for will be part of the base game purchase . I could have saved a lot of money. IT EVEN COMES WITH A MOUNT!
Great for new players, but not sure why you're so excited to put this in my game launcher menu. I like what you're doing for the game, but this being part of my "eso news" was stupid imo.
We can't predict these type of things, I suppose would of been cool to get a heads up but if you bought the base game it would of been 20-30 dollars right? I recently bought my nephew the Xbox One version for him and it cost me 40 for the imperial edition and that was about month ago.

To buy all the 4 DLC's it costs 9,500 crown. So if you buy (2) 5,500 crown packs for 39.99 each then that's $79.98. So, ya, great for new players but what about existing people? I bought the Imperial Edition as well (as soon as it was released) and got 0 included DLC's. I do understand that for a new player it would suck to drop 50 bucks on the game then 80 on expansion packs but hey, isn't that the way it typically works anyway? It's what I did. It would be nice if some thought would be given to existing players/account holders.
Problem: Player has been with the game for a long time, has got several champion 160 characters but owns no DLC's packs. To get them it would cost $79.98 or start a new account with new characters (which would suck) for $59.99.
Solution: You have to reduce the cost of the DLC's that are out there for people who are not gold edition buyers. If the 4 DLC's go down to say, 750 crown each the player would able to get them all for 3,000 crowns (or $39.99). Future DLC's can be 2k like the majority of them are.
The gold edition is still cheaper then buying everything through the crown store. Why should ZMO lower prices for dlc? imo the prices are fine and 20 dollar cut is only a good thing.

Yes, that's exactly how it feels.
Which, combined with Firor's recent declarations, makes me fear again that the first 4 DLCs were actually belated parts of the base game, and future DLCs will be unsignificant tiny bits such as Shadows of the Hists. But we'll have to keep our subscriptions because crafting bag.
Oh well...
This feels kind of like a middle finger.
My case is like Fukutsu. I am a newer player and have had this game for a little under a month. I paid for Imperial edition AND I also bought the Dark Brotherhood DLC. So I have already spent around $105+ for the game. The new offer is good but I think it makes players who have put a lot of money into the game feel unimportant. I think many people can agree with me.
This is just what I think should happen.
1) Players who have bought the base game + Imperial edition should get the benefits of this new package for free.
2) Anyone who has bought the game (whether just the base game or with the imperial edition) AND has purchased DLC('s) should be given some crowns or the equivalent amount of crowns of the DLC('s) purchased.
3) Adding a sale for crowns and crown store items might allow players who do not benefit to this new deal cope with it.
These are not concrete ideas, I am just spitting some ideas that I thought about to make this new deal benefit everyone.
I really hope you will do any kind of sale for crowns, because people who have only bought standard version of the game may feel sad that they could buy the gold edition instead.
And I also have a question. Will we be able to add gold edition to the account with vanilla game? I'd like to get all the DLCs but buying them one by one is too expensive for me. I am also a big fan of collecting game boxes (I don't have TESO box edition ) so it is a good opportunity to get one by buying the gold edition .
Alright thanks @senhavran
@senhavran
Hey, that's a good news! Thanks for sharing it with us. Nice to hear that devs don't forget about the old players.
