Without our consent, we all paid a subscription for a Beta quality game. Please refund our money for the past year. You failed to fully inform the public of your intentions and you failed to deliver on your promises.

Full refund is the very least you guys could do.

    Without your consent you bought a game that is a combination of a buggy RPG (The Elder Scrolls) and a buggy genre of games (MMO's).

    Talk about fail.

    Many of us believed they were improving the game and adding content to justify paying a monthly sub. Instead, we WASTED money on a sub.

    REFUND OUR MONTHLY SUBS FOR THIS GAME, AND WE CAN MOVE ON!
    Some $15 a month barrier to keep out riffraff? Newsflash... Paid sub games still have plenty of trolls, jerks, 12 year olds, and ne'er-do-wells.

    Yes, they do, but not nearly as bad. The "free plus microtransactions" formula attracts stupid people like nothing else. Do you really want to argue that people playing Candy Crush are no worse than people playing EVE or pre-F2P ESO?

    Not gonna happen. Plain and simple. No other game have done that when they went F2P/B2P AFAIK.

    That's true, but having to buy the game rather than download it for free is an effective way of reducing the stupid people in the game, not to mention the gold sellers. After all, the game is going BTP, not F2P as most critics are ignorantly claiming.

    Anyone who has paid to play the game these past months has presumably considered that they've been getting value for money. If not, why didn't they cancel?

    OP- You know there are "agencies" who handle requests like this? Just saying. Posting them would probably get Mod'ed out, but yelping about it on their forum no matter how angry you are right now, is about as effective as telling your RL neighbor.

    I mean they didn't listen to a year of polls and commentary that the majority of the base here didn't want this passing it off as "listening to the community" in the PR....so, if you are truly after a refund, *I* don't think you will get one this way.
    If options weren't necessary, and everyone played the same way, no one would use addons. Fix the UI!

    I don't see what the big deal is. We'll get 100 crowns for each month we have subbed, and 1500 crowns for each month we continue to sub. 100 crowns for testing, 1500 crowns for keeping our sub active and rewarding their dishonesty. Seems fair to me.

    You say the game was "beta quality" as though somehow things are suddenly going to be dynamically different and better after the swap.
    If you are calling it "beta quality" now, console users will still be calling it a "beta quality" game in the summer.

    Again, I am not asking for a refund on my Imp Edition base game, just the past year of subscriptions. That is reasonable to ask and reasonable for ZoS to refund everyone's subs.

    Is this the first MMO you have played?

    Your right; FTC it is. LOL

    Well guess that could be a new hobby, good luck!

    I would prefer to play a 'Beta quality' game for free.......which is what ZoS is NOW doing. There was no need to pay a sub if this was their plan from the start.
