Concerns Going Forward

I understand there is a lot if speculation at this point, but one thing that is really sticking out to me is access to DLC. If DLC is optional, we're going to be out of sync. This also likely means updates will cease to exist.

There were a lot players looking forward to new systems. Spellcrafting, Thieves' Guild, Dark Brotherhood, PvE non-alliance zone, etc. That's a lot of stuff, and that's only a portion. Most games release DLC with new areas. But how are new integrated systems to work in the entire game with DLC being optional.

The ESO Plus subscription doesn't offer too much outside accelerated gameplay (sans crowns). I don't really want to zoom through this game. Offering even more ways to get to a dead end game doesn't feel right.

Unless your crown system offers something mechanical, I don't see subscribing to be worth it. I'd just buy my updates, Which will likely be cheaper than $180 a year.

This might be the most disappointing news to come out since the introduction of how the veteran rank zones would work on Beta.

    Spellcrafting = 100 crowns per spell, one time 1500 crown spellcrafting unlock
    Thieves' Guild = 2000 crown onetime unlock
    Dark Brotherhood = 2000 crown onetime unlock, 100 crown per quest area
    PvE non-alliance zone = 5000 crown unlock

    Or pay a monthly sub and get it, when your sub runs out you will need to buy it with crowns.

    An accurate example? Doesn't seem like it. Since what was previewed something entirely different.

    Well after thinking about it all day, I just hope things don't go to the wayside. There was still a lot of things I been keeping my subscription active for.
