[MUST DECIDE - SKINS] Should they be added on crown store?

Sup you Nasty Nasty... Nasty... Nasty Duo's...

Lately we've been seeing new skins being added via trials/achievements and yes they're great infact more than that, they're amazing. But why don't we have skins within the crown store? similarly how costumes are added in both achievements and crown store. They won't break the 'OP' balance and whatnot some of you may come up with.

At the moment when creating a character for example a High Elf, you are limited to a certain skin tone - 'THE PALE'ish NASTY MCTASTY VAMP SKIN' and [snip] that I don't want to be like that in the very least, or if you're a vamp on any characters (and no I don't want to cover up myself or become another race), unless ofcourse you got achievements you can hide it instantly, but what about those who aren't into PVE? as skins require users to meet certain achievements in-order to unlock them similarly to costumes, we should have the same on the crown store. so where do you stand on this? Why have them only for PVE?

I love seeing ESO do great and I'm going to say this straight up... I'm a bulk donator who likes to spend [snip] ons on games or whatever the [snip] I seem to like (not trying to act arrogant in the slightest), so I for one won't be disappointed in spending money just to get an exclusive skin that are only for those who donate, it's already been done for costume no?

    Well there was the mind shriven skin ages ago that was limited but also returned periodically as part of the IC anniversary bundle.

    As long as they don't put skins like MoL or the new dungeon skins on the crown store, sure :)

    Skins have existed in the crown store before, and I am sure there will be more in the future.

    As someone who has spent over a thousand dollars on counter strike skins. I think putting skins in the crown store that people had to earn would be the death of pve.

    However if they put completely different skins in the crown store then I wouldn't mind at all

    yeah, similar to how they structured costumes, they could copy that format and do it for skins.

    I don't know why ZoS don't add in Skins in the crown store.... especially the soul shriven skin that so many people are wanting, but don't want to go to Cyrodiil and farm for it. It's like ZoS is begging me not to purchase anymore crowns due to the fact that they keep releasing uninteresting stuffs like the drunk personality and a couple of women dresses (Nothing for us men!).

    Technically there are dro m'artha Polymorphs coming which kinds undoes the vMoL hard work.

    Keep in mind that data mined info is not confirmed. They can always change their mind. Crown store stuff has been datamined months ago and still has not been added to the game.

    I'm not saying that I'm against them adding Dro'mothra polymorphs to the Crown Store, just saying that data mined info is not confirmed.

    No, as for the dromathra item that been datamined it is an outfit not the polymorph.

    Even better. The Dromothra motif is already in the game so making it a costume doesn't really matter.

    That brings me to another question, Since there are so many crownstore items to place in, why do they only provide a few at a time? I know the 'exclusive' marketing strategy to get the buyers rolling it, but won't it be more effective if they have more items within the crown store without having them removed within a day or two - if you know what I mean?

    As of now and in the past, whenever I looked at crown store, it just struck to me 'is the game incomplete or something?' probably many would answer yes by now.. obviously.. but face it game is not incomplete, it's racking profit for the business with a successful launch.. but who gives a [snip] about that... back to the point...

    They should add more items within the crownstore without removing any previous ones out... yes exclusive drives in quick sales, it would be more effective having exclusive with items when there are more long-term items already placed in - Mind blown?Hah... not

    There is no donation button. There is only buttons for purchasing.

    I like the idea of skins being related to acheivements, although there is a skin that can be sold via guild traders. The one randomly obtained via tel-var.

    This. As for vMoL skin, I saw several people in EU trading guilds who occasionaly sell spots in vMoL raid for gold. The price is between 1 and 2 million. ;)

    On the contrary, exclusivity is typically more profitable. They can sell exclusive things in the crown store at a much higher price and people will buy these more often because of its exclusivity.

    In terms of 'donation' regarding a game is via purchasing in-game items with real money - that is what I meant when I added 'donator'.
