Compared to the old Crown Store ad, how well-informed do you feel now about Crown Store offerings?

I'm not asking about whether it is annoying or whether you like the stuff in the Crown Store, etc. I'm wondering specifically how well the new advertisement does its job of advertising what is available in the Crown Store, compared to the old advertisement.

    Well-Informed?

    I just want to soul trap whoever had that idea and blast his/her soul gem to oblivion.

    It's less helpful than I hoped it would be, more helpful than the same thing that showed up previously that was just smaller, about as helpful as just going into the crown store in the menu on login like I always have. I'd much prefer a quick list of the most recent news articles from the website, because you don't really get to see those too often (particularly on console) and they are leagues more helpful than the silly crown store ad.

    Two times I missed new items in the Crown Store. Too much useless information, I guess.

    I don't like that new ads show on each relog. I am so annoyed by it that I usually just close it and not even pay attention, it's handy mostly to claim daily rewards.
    I used to have it blocked by addon, but then I started to forget about new additions to store completely cause of it :D
    Also the first thing it shows is Summerset advertisement - and it encourages me to upgrade, even though I already have Summerset :| So to learn if there are any new things in store I have to scroll to next page each time, this is very irritating.

    I really preferred old window which was displayed only when there were changes/additions in store, and it was much less intrusive.

    That one I'll give you. You'd think they'd KNOW that you already have Summerset and not keep reminding you to upgrade. They do that on the forums as well. Very annoying.

    I hit ESC as soon as I tab back to the game when I come out of the load screen. I already own Summerset. I don't need to see offers for it.

    The times I want to see what's in the store are not the times either ad was presented. No neither helps, and I go browse when I want to do so.

    I agree with what others have said.

    Previously, it only showed up when something new was available, and I always was glad for reminders or alerts in case I was keeping my eyes peeled for something.
    Now?
    Most of the advert is stuff I already have (Summerset, Morrowind and all the now a la carte features from Morrowind)
    It is obnoxiously huge. Why? The half screen it was before was more than large enough.

    Not only is it obnoxiously huge, but half of it is just black window filler. Only the top half is actual advert. The rest is just blank garbage taking up my screen.

    So yeah. I get less info now because I close it immediately, and as soon as No, Thank You gets updated to stop the daily reward LUA error bug, I will be using it again so I dont even need to press anything to clear my screen up.

    By all means, advertise the crown store stuff, but for the love of all thats sacred, spare those of us who own the chapters already from being spammed by adverts to purchase them, at the very least.

    No difference.... I ignore the ad just the same as I used to.

    edit: actually, I probably ignore it more, because it's more annoying, so I close it faster. The old one, I might look at once in a blue moon.

    Before it showed you new items. Now theres too much info to sort through and most of it is irrelevant, i.e. already purchased.

    I want an option to disable ads. They're just annoying, especially when they tell me to buy Summerset after I already bought it. Or at least they could make it so it only shows up once, after every crown store update.

    If only that were true. Hopefully they pick up in the poll. It's worth noting that "other" and "no difference" appear to mean they aren't being reached by the ad.

    Personally, I'd love to get the old one back and remove the addon.

    I feel less informed because the impulse to close the giant eyesore is greater than the impulse to see what's new in the crown store. And if I actually look at it, they're insulting me by trying to sell me stuff I already paid for once.

    Hard to be "informed" when you close it out immediately.

    Much like hanging up on the telemarketer as soon as they call.
