You specifically mention, in the ESO+ Purchase page, that I will receive ALL Future DLC Content. How will I be receiving ALL of this future DLC Content, when it's locked behind a paywall being Morrowind. You do not exclude additional content via expansions - so legally - I think you have to provide the Morrowind access from a DLC perspective
(Disclaimer - not a lawyer - not have I checked these "new" Additional Requirements that seems to be a recent addition....)
Actually it says all dlc available in the crown store. As this isn't available in the crownstore there is the "out".
Personally I have already pre ordered and still sub, so I don't have a dog in the fight. To me I see a value in ESO+ , and in reality for me $40 isn't all that much, so new content, continued upgrades and patches like 1t and Homestead are why I stay subbed.
Ya and we have linked it prior to this where it said ALL DOWNLOADABLE CONTENT... THEY CHANGED IT DO TO MORROWIND!!
Why is this so hard to understand.. we paid in advance with our subs for ALL DOWNLOADABE CONTENT.. then they bait and switched it.. this is what we as subs are upset about...
This has NOTHING to do with the amount of content that other DLC's had, it has to do with what they advertised to us.. and that they said we as plus members would get DLC every 12 weeks.. it will have been almost a year since any new paid DLC content and then we do get it they want to charge us.. even though for the last year we have paid on avg $180 in sub fees with the understanding that they would honor what they advertised when we started to sub that ALL downloadable content would be included with the sub.

£40.00 for the expansion - after 2 years of ESO Plus Membership.
Edit1: YOU CAN NOT BUY THIS EXPANSION WITH CROWNS!!!! ONLY CASH.

Edit3: @ZOS_GinaBruno Has stated there will be an update for ESO+ Subscribers tomorrow. We shall see.
That's it, I'm done. Have fun folks but I'm certainly not paying for this.
Calm down. They are trying something new to give us more new and better content. They have also heard the concerns that fans have voiced about the worth of ESO plus and are rethinking what they can do to make sure it will stay worthwhile. At least wait to find out one how much value will the new chapter give, and two what will they do to make sure ESO plus stays of worth.
If after seeing what they have planned you decide to get mad, then so be it, until then you are blindly raging about what you don't really know about.
It is the combination of no paid content for a year (housing and OT were free for everyone) and then having to pay for the new content which has got people angry. What have plus users got for about $100 in the 12 month period (as it will be) which they couldn't have got for free since the previous DLC? To find out they have given $100 for nothing and then are expected to pay $50 for new content because the marketing team has found a loophole in the meaning of DLC is an insult.
Is this content larger than normal, yep, however, compare it with an expansion from other MMO's and it is tiny
Good questions. We'll be getting into this more tomorrow - stay tuned for an article on our website that should give some insight.
Was there ever an article from ZoS on this?
@Nermy - This was the article:
http://www.elderscrollsonline.com/en-us/news/post/2017/02/01/welcome-to-2017
Then this thread was started 3 days later in the Crown Store & ESO Plus section of the forum:

sub cancelled, thanks for the info

I dont care about the crowns - although the crafting back was nice, it wasn't there from the start, and is not why I subscribe*.
I subscribe* to make sure I have all the content, while at the same time supporting ESO a little bit more than I would be just buying the DLC.
But... the only paid for DLC there will have been for a year (by the time morrowind is released) will be two dungeons. I kept going, thinking that they would release something cool to make up for a year of paying for ESO+ without any significant content. And they are releasing something cool... but it's not included.
Even if i WAS interested in the crowns, the direction the crown store is going has made me consider scrapping ESO+ in protest regardless of DLC content.
I will miss the crafting bag.
*subscribed. It is now past tense.
Goodbye ...

No, I won't need to purchase one of the five editions of anything. What I need to do is revoke my ESO+ membership and delete the game off my PC because your company is nothing but a massive scam. You won't be seeing my money anymore, goodbye.

There was not bait & switch, just deal with it .....
They only said all DLC's were included in sub. They never said all expansion & chapters were included in sub .....
There is a difference between DLC's compared to expansions, or chapters as they are calling it .....
Stopnaggin wrote: »I'm too lazy to dig for information but it would be quite interesting to determine the exact spot on ESO's timeline when ZOS suddenly switched from calling additional content DLC to chapters.
Another thing would be to compare ZOS's promised perks of subbing with the actual facts of what they did.
So, Did ZoS actually say anything about this problem or are they going to give something to ESO+ subscribers?
I can see how this will annoy some people, but 5 months notice has been given before ESO:MW letting subscribers know of the change. This is pretty generous heads up.
Plenty of time to decide if the value is there for you or not.
I mean they even worded Homestead as a "DLC" when that is free to all (a game update) regardless of ESO+, to somehow be able to point to that and say "Hey you got a DLC in Feb -17.... They are really twisting the words here. It's really not that hard for people to understand subscribers reactions, I believe.

I've not seen them refer to Homestead as a "DLC". I have seen other people refer to Homestead as a DLC, though. All I have heard is "update" from Bethesda and ZOS. What are you referring to?
Homestead, our player housing DLC, in February

It's actually in the Welcome to 2017 article.Homestead, our player housing DLC, in February

So now I have to pay my sub AND buy expansions?
Errr no, i'm off if that's the case.
If this is the new direction ZoS is taking I will be paying £100 a year for a crafting bag.
Did I read somewhere we also have to pay for an extra character slot if all our others are full on top of the Morrowind expansion AND the ESO+ membership?
lmao why do ESO+ members who pay a few bucks a month think they're entitled to the world?
Get in line and pay the $40 for the expansion
I don't see the problem here. World of Warcraft among other MMORPG's requires you to purchase all new expansions along with paying a non-mandatory monthly fee.

So you subbed for a year and haven't recieved your crowns, craft bag, inspiration and gold gains? Seriously this whole we were "promised" thing. We were never promised anything. The TOS overrides anything they have said, and that is the loophole. And we all agreed to it. Stop expecting things that haven't even happened yet. You pay a month at a time or 6 months in advance you are still recieving what you have paid for. You can acces dlc, the craft bag and you get your crowns. Things change, happens all the time, you can adapt, you can accept, you can complain or you can leave. Personally if I felt cheated I would bat an eye, I would he gone whitout so much as a goodbye.
