Paid Race change?

SteveRuimy
I know a lot of people will disagree and go crazy on my post but:

A race change option for a given "x" amount of dollars could be nice.

It is a an option that people will use a single time because they want to change their race to get the best passive for the type of character they want to play. And it'll provide you with a nice income in top of subscriptions fees to implement more things in the future or invest this money in other aspect of the game that could be improve.

I'd be the first costumer to pay you this "x" amount of money to change the race on one of my character.

Other games implemented it, why not you?

    If you want a different race you have to create a new character. And i hope they will never change this.

    I have to agree with Frcyr, you should not be able to change your race or class (well, maybe if ZOS nerfs something, that it is unplayable).

    I would be glad, however, to have the option to reshape my character (especially the face), because when I created it, I was not able to zoom in.

    Later I heard, that you were able to zoom in with the second created character. Well, that was too late.

    Well, I made a khajit night blade the first day of the game thinking stamina based build would be viable, they're not and switching to magicka based I lose all the passive offered by races like Breton for example, I'm already v12 I don't see myself going over that again. I know a lot of people think like you and I completely accept that but my point of view is also acceptable in terms of minmaxing.

    It took you all the way up to Vet12 to realize this?

    I was v1 after 6 days of the game, it was still working perfectly fine, in PvE and PvP I found different way to make the build works out compared to most of the people. It's just that when trials came out the number spokes by themselves.

    When people were getting 600-650 dps in Darkshade caverns etc.. I had a descent 550 so I thought it'll work out perfectly fine. I was wrong and they still haven't talked about buff in weapon skill line + stamina based build.

    If my idea doesn't suit you it's not a problem, It's not like it could affect your gaming experience. Regardless of the fact that they could implement that no one is obliging you to pay anything.

    And from an economic point of view it's a nice source of revenue for ZOS.

    I don't think races should be able to be changed but feel for you in regards to the stamina issues. They just need to fix the stamina/magika imbalance.
