There's been no indication from ZOS that they have any intention of not going ahead with this plan. If they did decide to listen to us and not do this awful thing I'd start recommending this game to friends again and probably even pick a few copies up as Xmas gifts. But as it stands right now I can't recommend this game to any new players.
They have experience with MMOs, they know what this means. No further explanation is necessary on this case, and it doesn't matter how much I defend the other aspects of the game. And no, I can't just not tell them the crates will be added, that would be a scummy thing for me to do to someone.

Well, not unexpected, but disappointing. Here's hoping they allowed trading in unwanted consumables and cosmetics for gems to bring the worst-case-scenario prices down.Meanwhile...ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »We'll be releasing Crown Crates later this week, and will be publishing an article on our website tomorrow with all the details.

Crown crates announcement: "...You will also have the option to convert several items obtained from Crown Crates to Crown Gems any time you want. Items that can be manually converted include potions, poisons, riding lessons, experience scrolls, and other utility-type items."
In theory a good move from ZoS to soften the "lots of consumables" critics... now we have to wait to see how much gems will be reverted from that utility items
You supposedly can. I would be very interested to know the conversion rate, if you could post it.wrayvinmaneb14_ESO wrote: »Yeah, I bought four crates and 95% of what I got out of them was potions. I don't use those stupid potions. Can I turn them in for gems?

@ZOS_GinaBruno Why can't we sell items we receive that we don't want? This seems illogical as I don;'t want some of the cosmetic items I receive yet I am not given the option to recycle them for gems?
Sorry to see you go, @GhostwalkerLD. I'm sure you will be missed. May your future be filled with happy gaming experiences.GhostwalkerLD wrote: »the time has come to uninstall. As long as these crown crates are in the game, I won't be.
