When you want to battleground but you are poor

That feeling. I would like to experiment the battlegrounds BUT WITHOUT HAVING TO PAY 40$? Can't they make a "DLC" where you could buy the access to battlegrounds without having to pay for WHOLE morrowind?

    I have seen the game + Morrowind being sold for less than $20 in different places lately
    "it's important to state that our decision to go with subscriptions is not a referendum on online game revenue models. F2P, B2P, etc. are valid, proven business models - but subscription is the one that fits ESO the best, given our commitment to freedom of gameplay, quality and long-term content delivery. Plus, players will appreciate not having to worry about being "monetized" in the middle of playing the game, which is definitely a problem that is cropping up more and more in online gaming these days." - Matt Firor

    When the steam summer sale hit you could get it for like 23 bucks or something like that on steam; ESO store price matched it without advertisement, as far as I know, and actually undercut the steam sale by a few bucks. I'm sure by the xmas sale it will be back on sale again likely at a lower price. I might bite around then, not playing this game much at the moment because I have a huge inventory of games to get through but when they have a good event combined with BGs and the game-play is sorted I could be tempted.

    Is $40 really that much of a problem? I mean after all you have a PC, Xbox or PS4, and if playing on Xbox need Gold to play (not sure about PS4) and have to pay for a very good internet service. I am sure that what the 2 months that Morrowind has been out you could have saved $40 by now.

    I mean if money was really an issue you shouldn't be having internet and buying ESO in the first place. Or maybe just be greatful that you can play ESO because money is so tight right now and you are able to.

    I know how hard it is when money is tight. I want to get things, but I don't go on the internet and complain about it if I can't afford it especially when it's easy to save for if you really want something.

    Don't worry.

    You'll realise you wasted it as soon as you play them.
    Teams aren't balanced so trying to play solo means you get the idiots on your team against organised groups. So if your group isn't on, don't even bother.

    Not being able to select mode means stupid capture the flag where people just rush to capture the flag meaning there is about 3 kills all game. You queued 15 minutes for a 2 minute game.

    Broken sets and builds are amplified hugely in them. The game is built around CP, so just taking them away while leaving everything else just doesn't work. I like the idea of no CP, but not with all the BS that is in the game.

    I'll try them again when proc sets have been addressed. That may help, but not greatly.

    You're not missing much in all honesty. There's a reason everyone stayed in Cyrodiil.

    Console will be a bit more screwed but then again console is always screwed with games prices.

    People should not buy from dodgy key sites like CD Keys (or G2A, Kinguin, etc), because those sites commonly have games bought with stolen credit cards from legit sites that are then sold there for very low prices, the result being that you may have your account terminated in many games once the chargebacks start and it all unravels.

    There is a list of official retailers here - https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/171736/deactivation-of-fraudulently-obtained-esotu-game-keys, that no doubt at least some of which are selling it cheaper than the official site.

    Thank you for getting this off topic. I've been saving up to buy my PS4, my online subscription and all of that. Everyone have Internet I just might not have the money after all that to afford a 40$ pack that for me is only for the battlegrounds

    Like seriously, I'm not POOR. I just can't afford to buy a 40$ DLC ON A VIDEO GAMES because I got other things in real life to buy. I just want to be able to have a reduced price in which I could get ONLY the battlegrounds.

    Well then you can just buy it on sale... You've missed Steam summer sale but there will be Halloween sale and Black Friday...

    Sucks. You should go do something to earn $40. Maybe cut some grass or help some older folks around the house. Or maybe, don't buy fast food a few times and you'll be halfway there.

    Contrary to the current state of the world\, you are not entitled to play content that someone else made for free. You can either pay what they are selling it for, or not play it.

    Nope. People have asked for it since crowns were introduced. Wouldn't matter for Morrowind because you can't buy it with crowns anyway.

    I am responding to everyone with this attitude.
    If you have an attitude like this, then you have never experienced life and are most likely still living with mom and dad.

    Life can change in an instant and one can go from comfortable life to in debt up to your eyes because of an accident or illness. Priorities change and you shouldn't judge.
    Never laugh at anyone's situation in life, because one day you may experience something similar.
