Pariah's Pinnacle. Will you buy it?

pandoraderomanus · December 2017

That awkward moment when an ingame house costs 1/4 of your monthly salary. I planned to buy it, but for gold only. The house looks awesome...

Streega · December 2017

Nope, no way. First, it's Crown Store only and hugely overpriced (as usual), secondly, it's another Limited Time offer.
I've bought one house with crowns, one with gold - I had a choice, and I wasn't forced to "Buy now, or regret later when it's gone". I'm not falling for this marketing crap, I'm not a toddler.

As a somewhat new player to ESO I was shocked at how expensive housing and furniture is. Coming from Rift where housing is very affordable it was quite eye opening to say the least.

I really like this house and would have bought it but $150.00 is crazy expensive. In Rift this would cost $10.00, maybe $15.00 so the difference is 10x greater. That being said, I do like the housing styles much more in ESO - I just wish they were more affordable.

I would have purchased this house IF the furnishing slots had been significantly increased. For people like myself, having a spacious home such as this is a wonderful creative opportunity, but the current limit on housing items stymies that creativity to the point to where there IS NO POINT in purchasing this or any other home.

BloodWolfe · December 2017

Crown only = NO BUY! I will never buy a crown only home and especially homes at this price, I can buy 2 brand new games for the price of this, I mean come on ZOS this is absurd the pricing you guys choose for these homes. Why anyone would be willing to spend tha kind of money is beyond me but too each their own I guess. Not for me though... ever!

Ratzkifal · December 2017

I have to say that it looks amazing. The harsh, cold and unwelcoming nature of this house is perfect if you are looking for exactly that. I am tempted to buy it, but will ultimately not do it because I don't want to be spending 85€ on a house I don't have a character for. Unless one of my friends will split the bill with me and we use it together.

Stormahawk · December 2017

No for me too. After buying a notable home with crowns to use as a guild home (Grand Topal), I feel there is no reason to buy another home that's crown-only, no matter how cool it is because of the price. Plus, 700 furnishing limit is not enough to decorate such a large space.

If Pariah's Pinnacle was available for gold, even a lot of gold like 10mil, then I would get it. Having it available for gold would also create a goal to work towards to and keep me interested in playing the game. Right now there aren't really any big or new things in the game to spend a lot of gold on, and limiting new housing content to being Crown-only makes that only worse.

driosketch · December 2017

It's pretty sparse, even the furnished version. (Which is filled with some pretty expensive items) The view is amazing, but the inner explorer in me would have me throwing myself down the mountain trying to reach new areas. I did find a ledge left of the entrance you can land on. Well, die and revive on. But take two steps to the side and environmental damage kills you.

Oh, and to answer the question, no.

duendology · December 2017

My impression is that whoever designed the place actually FORGOT to add a dwelling there? The cave itself looks like an entrance to this other side with 'courtyard" and THERE should be built something orcish habitable.
And I previewed it furnished... I was overwhelmingly NOT impressed.

Mureel · December 2017

Nope.

Did anyone buy this and see how far out the invisible walls are? Like can you get to the top of the mountain and how far to the left of the entrance can you build off of?

It goes pretty far out, at least in the main yard area. You can do some really neat exploring off the cliff.

I already bought mine and spent like 4 hours furnishing it. Next up is to build a cool parkour course off the side of the cliff

Dojohoda · December 2017

No

Kilandros · December 2017

Bought it. My favorite house so far.

Tiedän · December 2017

I’m honeslty less mad about the actual cost of these ‘crown only’ houses and more upset about the fact that the last two crown only houses have been limited time offers in existing DLC areas. That just strikes me as unfair. Those houses should 1.) not be limited time offers because they’re existing territories that never had homes put in to them. Every DLC follwing the Homestead update has come with at least one house in it (even Horns of the Reach did). People either purchased this DLC or get it through ESO+, either way we shouldn’t have a limited amount of time to purchase the one and only house in that area. The only two sensical uses of limited time only homes were with Tel Galen in Vvvardenfell because it was only one of the potential four homes you could own in that zone and with the Topal Island.

2.) They should have had the option to be purchased with in game gold, even if it’s a ridiculous amount. The prerequisite for ownership of one of those houses via gold could have been tied in with the achievement of completing those DLC areas (like the Horns of the Reach house)

And for the money you’re paying for one of these you’re essentially just buying a showroom. If buying a house expanded your storage, then it would at least make a little more sense. I just wish that introducing storage to housing was a priority. I don’t see why they can’t just tie it in to the bank storage system. You buy a house with 700 slots to decorate and it also has 700 slots to expand your bank space, or something along those lines.

MythicEmperor · December 2017

No.
1. Overpriced
2. Orsimer
3. Not Dunmer
4. ???
5. PROFIT!!!
6. Wait, what was the question?

Elsonso · December 2017

Nope.

Costs a fortune to heat that place.

It’s not a question of cost, it’s a question of value. When I think of all the things I could do or buy with $150, a virtual home that I would never be able to decorate to my satisfaction due to item counts just doesn’t make the list.

I might be able to decorate it to my satisfaction, but yeah $150 for a virtual home is crazy. If it were $20 - $30 I might consider it.

That said, I have two additional comments.

1) It's lovely. If it were available for in-game gold and I had enough I'd probably buy it.

2) This is a very disturbing development. This is the second crown store only uber home in a core racial style. That's a vital distinction for me. I don't mind so much that they're trying to flog these monstrously expensive virtual homes in non-core styles but it's different when it's in the style of one of the 10 playable races.

Is there going to be another Orc manor at some point which can be purchased for gold? Should we expect crown store only manors for the other playable races which don't currently have manors? Orcs are probably one of the less popular races so they might be testing the waters with this one.

The Telvanni Tumor Tower was less problematic both for it being a sub-culture style and looking so hideous from the outside but it should have been available for gold.

Tel Galen is my favorite house

Could it be less pink and more brown/green? Of course. Could it have gone without a stone foundation? Most certainly. It is Telvanni, however, so it is the superior house despite its flaws.

Vaoh · December 2017

This home for me is absolutely perfect! I have wanted a snowy environment home for a very long time......but 13K/16.5K Crowns (not buyable with Gold) is an all-around disgusting price tag.

I won’t be buying it and I leave from this whole thing extremely disappointed. Same way I’ve felt for each new mount and costume for awhile now as well. Definitely not renewing my sub either with all of the disappointment I’ve felt toward ZOS lately.

Sera67 · December 2017

As much as i love design.... the real money cost for my happiness and handful of people who will see what I do to it... is not enough.
20-30$ Sure...

But these 100$ houses catered to small few who can afford them needs stop....

Great house thou...=/

Hrogun · December 2017

I was so happy to hear that an Orsinium home was coming...
And once again, it's too fracking big... Oh the disappointment.

Funrukdurkha · December 2017

Only if we have a crown sale. (Hint, hint, @ZOS_GinaBruno + @ZOS_JessicaFolsom ).
