Why being an ESO+ member?

pablinski

I´m really curious. Personally I don´t care having much crowns, or a horse (I like walking). And when a DLC finally comes out, they´ll probably sell it for $20.
So why, oh why?

Only tangible benefit is to level faster with both 10% bonus to leveling and get crowns to buy experience potions. Basically get 9hrs a month played at 50% boost to leveling. Which, I've found just gets me through my enlightment faster, so debatable if these scrolls really help.

DLC is NOT a reason as you it will be cheaper to just buy the DLC when it comes out. Plus, you actually OWN it when it comes out, as with ESO+ you only rent it.

Because it's only $15. I think of it like car insurance, or any other monthly bill. I pay my $15 per month, and I always have access to everything. The 1,500 crowns per month and 10% increased XP/AP/Gold gain are just an added bonus.

In a game like this, I completely agree. It will be significantly cheaper to purchase the DLC with Crowns instead of subbing.

Exactly. Unless the DLC was to cost upwards of $100 or so, purchasing the DLC with Crowns is the way to go.

We've been over and over this, do a search maybe.
Some sub, some decided it's not worth it (like me)

I am ESO+ because I want to financially support the company that creates the game I enjoy playing.

Lol. Gotta make sure that corp with gold weighing their pants down doesn't go out of business. Seems legit.

Because 1500 crowns costs $15. And being an ESO+ player costs $15. So if you are likely going to be getting the crowns at some point anyway (for instance, to buy the DLC), you might as well just sub and accumulate them slowly month to month, since you get other benefits (10% xp or whatever else) as well

DenMoria

I think the whole argument got started here because you wouldn't own the DLC (pay the full amount), but "rent" it (included in your monthly subscription) so, when you turn off your subscription, it would turn off.

Me, while I will get it with my subscription, I'll buy it as well so that I have a copy on hand (I play across multiple ID's, one of which does not have a subscription) and I would like it on my PS4.

I don't do the subscription because it's a requirement, I do it because I happen to like the game and the perks I do get are worth it.

Because they gave me 500 crowns and when dlc comes out it will most likely be 20$. SO sub a month get the bonus gold, xp and research time and have the dlc crowns ready to roll.
