2-3k crowns for DLC and 3k+ for race change......Looks like its more work for zeni to change.... race, than build a whole DLC form scratch......
"Minmaxing" while classes/races/skills are unbalanced for over 2 years and they ll keep changing after every other patch? Anyways makes no sense to pay 20$ for race change every 3 months unless...... someone is stupid or kid and has no respect for the money spent
I agree.
It is kinda sad that the dlc price is cheaper but I'm guessing ZoS wants the dlc to be easily accessible to most players but the price point on the race change is to discourage rampant FOTM changes.
and yet, people like you fail to think of all the people who make very little and play this game BECAUSE it's free. and DON'T have hundreds of dollars to spend on a game. your point of view is disappointingly narrow if you ask me.

Its not free.
The game cost money to buy. $60 if you got it at full price
Your computer/console costs money $1500-$2000/$200-$400
Your Internet costs money $30-$50 per month
Your electric costs money $110 per month in average
If you can't afford $20-$25, then how do/did you pay for all of the above? You cant afford any of it if you're that strapped. Sorry your arguement doesn't float.

I can't tell if this is bait or not.

I think that when you put a lot of work into something you deserve credit. And believe me when I say that if they released this stuff for free people would be thankful for a couple hours, then come back here to the forums and bash ZOS for not fixing bugs or not implementing the patch to be perfect and issue-free. So no, what's 2/10 is your reasoning I'm afraid.

I'm guessing you don't know anything about business?
Maybe you should step out of the "MMO" sector and look at how some companies make money. You don't have to rip people off or rob them to stay profitable.
well, I'm glad these high prices feed your fragile ego.jedtb16_ESO wrote: »vamp_emily wrote: »Natetendo83 wrote: »Anybody who knows anything about business and economics knows that the only way for a game like this to stay profitable is to either mandate a monthly fee or monetize things like cosmetics.

but no-one is being ripped off or robbed. the prices aren't hidden and you aren't being forced to buy anything.
and zos.... we are with you

Nope. The fact that I can afford them feeds my fragile ego and allows me to feel superior to the commoners.

You still don't get it. I'm assuming you never will.
You people have no damn idea what you're saying. The biggest MMORPG on the market also charges real money for all these things, but it also has a monthly mandatory subscription fee. You should be a lot more grateful, yet you complain instead. Do a little bit of research before you talk.
If you're referring to WoW, then I don't believe WoW is doing this:
- Constantly crashing for mysterious reasons.
- Lagging on PC worse than GTA 4 back in those days.
- Promising players to follow lore and do everything with care and instead roll out bootleg CROWN ONLY "Barber Shop"
- Speaking of Barber Shop, in that game you can change haircut for in-game gold.
- Rolling out two new dungeons for 20$
- Having GMs as non-existent absent spices that few people seen somewhere in Dawn Era and never again since then.
- Having PvP consisting of literally two tactics: either zergballing or screwing up those who zergball.
- Asking 10$ for old haircuts.
- Failing to deliver most of their promises.
- Ignoring game breaking bugs for months.
- Ignoring fact that people adopt engine flaws as part of combat tactics.
- Ignoring any complaints about anything that casuals don't care about.
- Having literally ZERO events ever.
- Lacking anything to do except suffering through Loading Screens in Cyrodiil and grinding bosses in PvE in hopes to get RNG monster set.
- Speaking of doing PvE, in that game you have steady progress towards getting something as you simply collect special tokens for that dungeon instead of doing same dungeon for billion times cause every time game drops you a monster gear piece that you already have and can't sell or trade.
- Not being able to earn most of the mounts for doing special quests or achievements and not sending people to shop for everything.
- Not having various in-game events related to summer time, Easter, winter time and so on. (Quick Note: I don't ask for events that are strictly ripping off IRL. TES universe got plenty of them: Fire Festival, New Life Festival, Heart's Day, First and Second Planting and so on. With all that said ESO has none of TES universe holidays).
- Having to load every single zone instead of having one big, almost seamless world.
- Feeding people with stories how everything is going to be awesome and yet failing to deliver it in time, and later rolling out a bootleg resemblance of what used to be their awesome idea they've been talking on live.
- Lying to people like "We increase level cap to 100 but we're also gonna nerf everyone down so they'll feel like level 75"
- Moderating forums with more attention than actually fixing game, lest people get nervous. Problem will go away if you suppress it long enough, riiight?
Oh and in that game you can buy yourself a subscription for in-game gold instead of real money.
I hope you have something to respond with. You did good research after all since you're all that loud, right?

You left out the ESO plus issues and getting stuck in Orsinium for an entire DLC cycle on Xbox one.

getting it and agreeing with it are two very different things...
Well i don't know how everyone else feels but the people that bought crowns last week or even just a few days ago but i feel they got ripped because the crowns are on sale now. I know u can boost your ego and say "well they seen the price" .. bla bla bla.
Have a good life.
