    1. i don’t like that the companions are in the crown store.
    2. i especially don’t like the transgender one for a multitude of reasons that can’t be discussed here.

    The point I'm making is that the 'assistants' are 5000 now.
    They are less value than companion (as I see it).

    Therefore, a semi-autonomous companion should be more expensive than a follower-with-a-function.
    If companions are crown-stored at 5000 or less, then the assitants are due for a huge cut to reflect the difference in use.

    That needs to be balanced against the fact that a lot of current players will have paid 5000 for their assistants already...

    I have the merchant and banker but not any of the others. Purchased with discounted crowns and accounting for the fact that I often play without a sub and so no crafting bag, at $25 each they're not bad value.

    Companion value?

    You can only have 1 out at a time.

    They have story content. That's not nothing.

    Yes there is their passive and those vary in usefulness but most I wouldn't miss.

    Previously when companions were bundled with expansion content, it made sense for players to just collect them all.

    Now, I think non-subscribers will be more likely to consider their main character (s) and ask, would I prefer this companion for that character?

    Right now I'm digging arcanists and apart from his shroomphobia, Azandar is fine.

    FYI I'm one of those players who love the single player TES games being classless, so have always preferred to ignore all but 1 in ESO.

    From that perspective the value of most new companions will not be enormous.
