Crown price ranges are realistic or crazy for unfurnished houses?

NewBlacksmurf

What are your thoughts?

*Edits to help and create better clarification*

In short UNFURNISHED prices:

-apartments start at 1,000 (confirmed) crowns
-Small home range: 3100 -4000 crowns
-Medium range 5000-6500 crowns
-large range 7500-8500 crowns

All the way up to manors for 10k crowns (confirmed) and up....Thoughts

Again these are unfurnished prices, so expect much higher prices for furnished and the crown exclusive manor was not announced.
@ZOS_JessicaFolsom or @ZOS_GinaBruno being that we have no bearing on furnished prices, when will an article be posted showing the furnished crown exclusive manor?

Too high for a cosmetic only home

a little too high but expected. Everyone will want them cheaper so I can see the "too high" option winning by a lot.

I am never going to spend more than 5k and that is only if it is an island. For anything else I am not spendin more than 3 at most.

But after seeing Dro'm-athra motif for 6k I bet the houses will be extremley over priced.

Sensible until the prices are beyond the largest crown package.

Too high...

Yeah, I'd need to see some sort of cost or pricing data before I'd believe $100 was somehow justified, lol.

Either, they're really just that absurdly greedy, or they want it to be very rare for people to own those houses; like only the people who have subscribed for 7+ months without ever spending their monthly stipend of crowns.

Hell, I had a hard time dishing out $25 or so for the playable DLCs, and that was PLAYABLE DLC.

I just can't believe they actually think they're going to make a lot of sales based on that price tag.

Too high...

Those prices, for an UNFURNISHED home, with ZERO additional storage, are absurd!

Definitely won't be spending my real world money on any of them.

SolarCat02

Too high...

Not surprised, though.

But I don't see myself ever buying Crowns for this game for anything. I have ESO+ because right now I feel it's still worth the value, plus I like being able to access the DLC while having the option to turn off my access by simply unsubscribing. (Anyone who has visited the main town in Wrothgar on Xbox will understand this! )

Never "investing" any more money than that into this game though. Inflation at its finest. Crowns are worth about 1/4 of what they were worth when I started playing this game, and most of that deflation in value has been over the last four months. I am sitting on 7.7k Crowns, solely from my subscription, and I still don't think anything currently for sale is worth the listing price, to me...

I was honestly surprised. I was expecting 8k for the small homes. 'Surprise' isn't for surprised that they are higher than I expected?

Bouldercleave

Too high...

Too high given the VERY limited functionality of housing.

If it came in a crown package with a bunch of furniture, training dummy and 1-2 attunable stations then MAYBE

You expected a small unfurnished house to be over $50 in real money?

NM - just realized these were crowns and NOT in-game gold.

My bad.

corrosivechains

Too high...

nothing in the crown store should cost more than DLC's/Expansions. There is no justifying it, even if they are "earnable" in game with gold

If it's a one-time fee, I think it's fine. Maybe even too cheap. Honestly, I can get 5k in about four hours just playing the game, not even grinding. I made 10k this morning selling stuff. I mean, I paid a hell of a lot more for my house and it also came unfurnished.

But if it's weekly or even monthly, yeah, it may be too high.

Crown prices, not Gold prices.

These are the prices in Crowns, the current purchased for actual real world dollars.

Slurg

Too high...

Those prices would be reasonable for furnished homes. Not empty ones. They don't even have storage!

I was going to buy mine for gold anyway, but I feel a little bad for the people who saved up all their crowns for this and still won't have enough.

Yeah, I saw that after the fact.

Did they make any mention to what the gold prices would be? My understanding is that all the houses will be available for in-game gold as well.

Sensible enough if you want the "count" "countess" title then you will have to fork out for them in gold or crowns.

A small cosmetic item on 4 legs costing almost $50? Yes, I expected a small unfurnished house to cost over $50. Also, sorry if I didn't get the crown packs' prices correctly as I pay for them in €. I try to not jump on the greedy ZOS train a lot but lately I kind of had to.

They released those a while ago. Here is one thread:

Homes are completely a comestic item. And they are purchasable in gold. Manors go for same price I've seen people charging for a Maw last boss skin. Market sets value , hear it all the time in this game

It's only crazy if you pay that much for something that just sits there.

@Fishoscandi

Regardless of real money conversions...let me make sure we are talking apples to apples
small to large:

-apartments
-small houses
-medium houses
-large houses
-manors


So to be clear, you expected small houses to start at the most expensive item ever to enter the crown store at 8k?
That puts something like a manor above 30k in crowns

Artis

Too high...

Nothing in the game should cost more than the game itself. They are missing out on a lot of sales banking on just a few people buying stuff for high prices instead of increasing the number of sales by decreasing the price and making deals more attractive.

ThePaleItalian

If there was storage... reasonable.

But its just fluff.

Either you pay for instant gratification or you go out and farm and sell and work your way towards it.

Yes, I expected 8k crowns for small homes. Didn't expect anything for apartments as they are really cheap and can easily be bought with gold. I am happy with the current house prices though, gold or crown.

Again these are unfurnished prices

I went with sensible because you don't have to buy it if you don't want to...

What I want is a guild hall. That to me would be way better than player housing.

Danikat

Too high...

It's about what I expected them to charge but more than I think it's worth. It's certainly more than I'd be willing to pay.

But I'd been planning to buy one with gold anyway, so it doesn't really bother me.

starlizard70ub17_ESO

The smartest way to do housing seems to be, buy the house with gold, craft most of your furniture, and buy select, hard to get items with crowns. Of course you will be investing time, 3 - 4 months maybe, to get all your furniture through crafting.

Are these speculative? Where is the source that these are the prices?
