First, Crown Crates will be available later this year, and will only include cosmetic or convenience items. You'll find things like potions and other consumables, pets, costumes, and - yes - sometimes even mounts. This will give you a chance to try and obtain previous limited time offers, or even some very unique items as Matt mentioned. It will not include things like armor or weapons.
In the event you get an item that you already own, you can exchange it for a currency called Crown Gems which will allow you to buy a different item of your choice.

It will cause harm to some people, who cannot stay away from these boxes and spend thousand of dollars on them and will eventually harm their family by doing so - I have seen cases like this in Archeage - RNG boxes are just plain evil.

Oh certainly. It is just that I'm going through the stages of grief right now.
1 - Denial: "That's absurd, they told us they were not going to add RNG boxed to the Crown Store. There must be some mistake on this Gamescom report."
2 - Anger: "I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY LIED TO US AGAIN. GODS, I'M SO MAD RIGHT NOW I'LL POST THIS GAMESCOM VIDEO EVERYWHERE"
3 - Bargaining (I'm here): "Ok maybe if it is implemented in this certain way, it won't be so bad, right?"
Only two stages to go, depression and acceptance.
I've come to the conclusion a vast majority of ESO players are morons.
There is exactly zero stuff that these boxes will contain that will have any actual effect on you in game...and yet...You're all talking about how this is the death of the game.
*** I played GW2 and they had these boxes....I had a crap ton of them just sitting in the bank and I maybe opened 1 the entire time I played from a key i randomly got.
The sheer absurdity of the posters in this thread is mind boggling...

66% actually - this is nearly an absolute majority.

Zenimax. You wanna earn my trust in a big way? Officially condemn this practice and scrap this idea. You dont wanna do that? I'm gonna advise everyone not to buy ***, not the nice DLC bundle, not the deals, not the cosmetics until you remove and condemn this practice.
I dont have much trust left but your pushin' it.

No its not
This is hyperbole.
Games don't die from lockboxes selling items you can't even trade with other players, esp items that are purely cosmetic.

Children are just one side of the coin - those can get addicted to gambling when exposed at a young age - the other side of the coin are people which are already gambling addicted or have a low level of self-control when it comes to things they want, even if they cannot afford those and it would bring them into an existence crisis or their family.

Games die when players lose faith in the service provider, and a majority of those who voted have expressed this sentiment as a result of the gambling boxes.

Ok Helen Lovejoy; if you can't handle box sales in a video game you can't handle being on the internet in the first place. In fact its safe to say you can't handle being anywhere at any given time in the United States since you'll be tempted by "chance"

No; No its not...I can base this on the vast majority of MMO's that have lockboxes and still very much alive.
In fact the vast majority of MMO's that have closed down didn't have lockboxes, and they closed down based on the fact that weren't producing money.
