QUALITY OF CROWN STORE ITEMS

rileynotzb14_ESO

What do you think of crown store items?

Egonieser

They're alright.

I'm fine with them.
Nothing beats doing serious, massive pvp while wearing a wedding dress (on a heavily tattooed, butch nord male with a goatee and scarred face). It was too tempting not to do it. Just lolz all the way, many people just stop and look at me when riding past, makes me feel special xD

Shennynerd

They're alright.

I'm not sure about some of the costumes, but I'm certainly enjoying my guar mount.

seanvwolf

They're alright.

Convenience and vanity items occupy the crown store. Anything more and it would be p2w.

In general, when you make a poll, expressing your opinion in the poll question biases the data in the favor of your position. Not that it matters much in a video game forum but something to keep in mind if you ever want to collect useful data about some topic.

Lol. If anything, it makes people disagree with you, as people like yourself love to argue and bring up stupid points. Everyone can obviously see what I voted.

Zorrashi

They're alright.

Most of them are more than acceptable. Aside from the consumables/upgrades, everything available are just vanity pets or alternate mounts types.
So long as we avoid ludicrous wing-of-flame like items and flying mounts in addition to P2W items, I'm good.

But I just agreed with your opinion even though I don't! What is this madness?

They're awesome!

im the only one who thinks there awesome sad i think its fun to get crowns monthly with your sub and then getting to look like a cat man in a wedding dress riding a dinosaur is amazing

MissBizz

They're awesome!

Personally, I love them. Then again, I have no need for XP pots, soul gems, or any of that. I'm happy to get a new pet so I can have one hound help me while I'm out harvesting.. and a different faithful pup when I'm fighting my way through a delve. If you're not into vanity items, I could see the selection being a bit "lame".

eventide03b14a_ESO

They're lame!

I'm anticipating the banekin pet. Otherwise I haven't been too impressed by the offerings.

When one portion of the population purchase guar mounts and wedding dresses to run around as a lark? Awesome for some.

When another portion of the population purchase the Nightmare and Draugr costume to make their characters look more badass (than they actually are?)? Awesome for some.

When yet another portion of the population purchase the White Mane horse and a housecat to individualize and deepen their personal RP experience? Awesome for some.

All of the items in the crown store cater to these demographics and that's why it's alright as it stands now.

What is lame for one demographic is awesome for another.

Personally I thought it was lame to see scores of Nightmare courser's in PvP when it doesn't really help with the immersion of my experience as it smacks a little too close to having 100 Shadowmere's each belonging to an individual player or 1000 Wabbajacks causing transformational chaos in the game.

They're alright.

The items are ok. Nothing too outstanding costume wise, currently. I did like the bundled costumes but I thought the individual ones were too costly compared to the value in the bundles. The nightmare horse, not my style but I do love the Guar! I've wanted a Guar mount since day one of my sub so I was really happy to see that in the store.

Senche and guar mounts are awesome. Costumes can be awesome if designed properly. Burning, frozen or bloody footprints would be cool. They could let you purchase dye's instead of having to complete the achievements. Idk, I mean I could really make a list a page long, but you can find awesome ideas all across this forum.

Would love to see better costumes the other items I'm good with

Oh I just love, love, love my pet Bantam Guar...*wills himself to refrain from posting entirely too many images of The Admiral*

But I do see the fella's point of feeling like he's gone from being a citizen of a fascinating, rich alternate world to being in a carnival.

They're alright.

They are alright, but this is just the beginning. More than likely, after console release they will begin adding content the the crown store. More costumes, pets, and downloadable contents.

They're alright.

I've seen more males in that dress than I have females!

I like some of the stuff - mounts and pets mostly - but the crown store is still young. It will get better once there are more things available in it.

I can only hope it remains vanity and convenience only - P2W is the beginning of the end of the game. I wouldn't buy those items anyway, since cheating is of no interest to me. Neither is 'winning'.

redspecter23

If you like pets and mounts, then the crown store is off to a very good start. The quality of these items is just fine. 9/10

The costumes feel like they're lacking. Without the ability to recolor them, I'm not interested at all. They add one form of customization but leave out what I feel is equally important which is the ability to color it the way I want. 4/10

Potions, etc. Now these are lame. Not just lame. Ultra lame. I'm not suggesting they should be powerful either. I'm just saying if you're going to spend time on items to put in the crown store just don't bother with potions, food or drink that mimic things that are worth less than 10g each in game. I'd feel sorry for anyone buying these things from the crown store instead of dropping miniscule amounts of ingame gold for essentially the same thing. I'd probably instantly ignore anyone that told me they bought them on principle alone. It's like pulling money out of your wallet and burning it. -50/10

eliisra

They're lame!

It's a bit boring, the store. Nothing I actually want to spend crowns on. But that's to be expected when it's only a few weeks old. Will no doubt be shoppers paradise in a few months.

I guess you might go awesome if you like pets. But I only wanted a cat. More into fashion and options to change how your character looks. Changing appearance on weapons, would also be great. Really feel the costumes are lacking right now. I get better looking disguises from quests.

Also the utility stuff they sell, what's the points? Who needs soul gems? Who even uses green food? I get that they're trying to avoid p2w elements and I love and support them for that. But it's a bit silly when they sell stuff for a few hundred crowns that you can get for 5 gold in the nearest guild store

They're alright.

I'm happy with the crown store but cant help feel that its lacking in more items. I'm sure they will add more stuff over time but the choices now are pretty limited.
