When is the ESO+ crown increase coming?

Prof_Bawbag

With nearly everything that's now appearing on the CS creeping up in price, those 1500 bundled crowns are looking even less value for money with each passing motif, mount, costume and pet. I appreciate we get the craft bag and some useless junk but I'm talking about the sub as a whole here and the ever decreasing value of those 1500 are beginning to require longer sub durations to make that aspect of the sub worthwhile. The way things are going, 1500crs will soon be as useful as 750crs were this time last year.

1500 crs is a about as useful as 0 crowns right now.

It appears that with crafting bag they think they've got us by the... ahem, well... bawbag.

Prof_Bawbag

Hahaha. You have a point there.

Never. It's no mistake that the lowest subscription that Gamestop and Best Buy sell online is 60 days. ZOS wants you to subscribe for multiple months or just buy crowns outright.

Edit: Correction; there's a 30 day for PS4 on both. But for PC/Mac it's 60 days.

@Prof_Bawbag

Zero reason for ESO+ to provide more crowns. For our sub we get full access to all DLCs and more and the amount of crowns is about equal to the cost of our sub.

Basically it's free crowns.

I get the sentiment behind your message, but they're not free. Just like games with gold on the Xbox 1 and the monthly games with PSN+ aren't free. If I didn't pay my subscription I wouldn't get them. I appreciate you already realise this, but I simply don't agree that they're FREE free if that makes sense.

@Prof_Bawbag

It doesn't matter how one looks at it, free crowns of your buying the crowns and DLC acces and more is free.

Either way works and it's obviously one of them meaning you are not going to get more crowns out of it.

@andreasranasen obviously big on end game PvE. It's ok.

There's a reason that those who bought the DLC when the model was buy to play felt like they were kicked in the bawbag with the subscription-gate placed on the crafting bag. To assess 'value', one can cut up what is free and what is not anyway they want. However, two thing are true: (1) value is arbitrary as we are talking about pixels; and (2) nothing is really free.

…and for the price of additional shipping and handling, I will throw in a free second <insert favorite infomercial here>.

my sub is the same price now as it was when the game started..... i'll assume you have the wit to work the rest of it out.

Plus they gave the crowns for how many months we were subbed before the conversion, so yeah free imo.

I would like to see more in game benefits for subscription, I rarely use the crowns I collect. The rewards while leveling up are fine, increased XP, gold and reduced research times, but once you're at CP cap and have 9 traits researched, there is only the craft bag and DLC's to keep you going.

Personally find it boring sneaking around and either killing or stealing, so the TG and DB DLCs are of no interest to me. SotH was only 2 dungeons and I already had Orsinium and Imperial City before I subbed.

Well if it makes you feel any better, subbed player houses will have double item cap than unsubbed.

You're basically buying those 1,500 crowns each month. So on the flip side you are technically purchasing the crowns & getting the Craft Bag & DLC access for free.

I bought the DLC Mega pack outright x2(For wife as well) and as a hardcore farmer/crafter. I would kill for that craft bag

Makes no difference if you received them before or not. if they were free, you'd receive them whether you paid for a sub or not. They are not free. You need to pay for the sub to receive them. It's the same how people argue that the games you receive on both consoles are free if you sub. Every single thing contained within the sub makes up part of the cost whether it's ongoing or not. No wit required. Seriously, explain to me how I can obtain those 1500 crowns without giving ZoS a single penny, thus free, and I'll happily change my stance on the matter.
