If there was a special mount exclusive to the lottery boxes, like one of these datamined ones: http://imgur.com/a/ZthBO

How many RNG boxes at 400 crowns each would you be willing to buy to try for this mount?

There is no 0 option on purpose, this poll is for people who are willing to buy RNG boxes. If you are not willing to buy a box you don't need to take part.

    I can't support this kind of predatory business, even if they put the only mount I have interest in since release as a box exclusive, that being the Ice Wolf.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    I'm not interested in such things as mounts, so none. While I'm not especially keen on the whole idea of lockboxes that simply means I won't be using them, it's not a reason for me to stop playing the game and I'm happy for those who want to use them.

    I'm not sure if you are aware of it yet, they are cosmetic only you know? They don't affect the gameplay at all! Like none. It would be a predatory model if they add p2w itens, which is not the case.

    You trust them to never put P2W crap in the boxes? Really? After they said they wouldn't be sticking lucky bags in the game at all? Yeah, no, I'm getting out before I watch them kill a game I loved.

    Well, despite me not really caring that they are going in, I won't be buying a single one. Things like this hold no interest for me in the slightest.

    Though if they do add P2W armour and weapons into the mix, I will drop my sub like a hot stone.

    Different items effect (affect?) people's enjoyment of a game differently. Personally for me, I would actually hate this idea less if it was VMSA weapons in those lockboxes (no, don't take that out of context, I don't think it's a good idea to ever put weapons etc. in the crown store, just making a point here), as that wouldn't matter at all to me. I don't play competitively, the rare times I PvP it really doesn't matter - that person will kill me with or without a fancy weapon (lol). I thing I DO love about the game is being able to change my outfit to fit the mood, change my mount to match the scenery and mission etc. So for me, I care much more about cosmetic items being locked away behind a lottery box. It doesn't change competitive play, but it does affect how I play the game.

    @Abeille @starkerealm

    I'm totally against the p2w model too and I would promptly drop from the game if they ever add p2w thing to those lockboxes. But in the meanwhile they aren't, so there is no reason to hate that much on those boxes: Its just cosmetic, its not mandatory, don't affect the gameplay.

    Its a cheap way to make money? Yeah, but if you don't like you don't have to buy it, simple like that.
