    Most people who have DLCs are subscribed anyway right? So even if they release 2 DLCs instead of 3 they still get the same. And they also make money from the crown store. If you make the game bigger maybe you can get more new players to buy the base game.

    So, because I sub and buy things from thier store, you should get free stuff?
    What is this, welfare gaming?
    How entitled are you?

    I want Falkreath, The Reach, or Annequinna. Call them "adventure zones" like Craglorn.

    DLCs are cheap, and don't get me wrong, but if someone can't get $20 to buy a DLC, maybe not the same day it's released, but at least some weeks or months after, he/she shouldn't be playing video games as it'd be clear priorities should be some place else, not in TESO.
     

    Where is this $20 morrowind? I can't find it on the Xbox store.

    it was 50% off recently. Personally I got my copy for 11£, which is 14.75$. But then again I'm on PC.

    It would be nice, they could use millions from their casino to pay for it instead of new jacuzzi.

    They'll make sheogorad and open up the dwarven ruins in VVaadenfell.. so only free if you unlocked morrowind.

    Geez I guess people don't like free stuff.

    Can I have your phone, for free? Or your PC/Consule, for free? I would really like that.

    Completely different. Stupid comment.

    Guess I'll take this free Brassilisk, free Nix-Ox, free Crown crates, and free costumes and mount I got from the Mysterious Boxes and throw them in the trash cuz that's pretty much what you guys are doing.

    Right because they had to buy the materials for the crates and them pay workers to assemble each crate. And they had to raise those brassilisks for a year. That's just cosmetic stuff and to be honest it doesn't even look that good. I have one free hat that loogs good all the costumes and stuff I don't use.

    OP, I have a question: would you agree to work for free? Making games requires a lot of work and investments, especially if we're talking about online games (which means that they need to pay for servers etc).
    And yeah, Craglorn wasnt a free update. You couldnt even log in without active subscription back in the days.

    Well actually they wouldn't be working for free. The company would still pay them.

    Its not like "the company" has infinite amount of money. And no company in the world would invest in something that wont make any profit.

    Craglorn was a free zone DLC, and as people were saying, the DLCs are a bargain in the crown store.
    I don't pay for ESO+, but I gladly buy every DLC

    Yeah, it was so free that it wasnt even possible to log in without paying.
    Craglorn was included in subscription just like any of the new dlcs.

    first some new zones were for free, but come on, would you go to a grocery store and ask "is there ever going to be bread and cheese for free?" certainly not. so understand, this is business the same too.
    so your answer is, "probably not", but the prices for the new DLCs are not that high, come on! ZOS needs to pay their employees. With better salary, they are more creative, etc... ;)

    Yeah but if they made something new for free once in a while it wouldn't hurt.

    yes it would hurt player expectations and make us more likely to demand more free zones.
    If you pay sub you can have access to all of them or you can pay each one separately.

    Probably not. Craglorn was free, but at the time it came out I think everyone was having to pay the monthly sub to be able to play the game.

    People are just realistic. Craglorn was added after all.

    I love free stuff. But I'm not entitled, and know the game needs to turn a profit. Only so much they can do.

    The game is a cheap hobby too, cost me £30 on launch its like £8 now. How much do ya expect.

    With crown sales and then DLC sales its so cheap anyway, I got Orsinium for like £2.50. And its the best DLC.

    Chances of getting new free zones are equal to the chances of getting 4kk to buy ebonhearth chateu from a player. I always like free stuff like the beta monkey, the 500 base crowns, craglorn, brassilisk, crown crates, nix ox and mysterious boxes but I'm ok the way it is now. I buyed orsinium for 750 crowns, that is really nothing for the best zone and dlc of all, tg and db for 4k crowns when there was a crown discount and morrowind for 20 € instead of 40 (that is way too much imho).
    P.S. @Nyner89 on Pc/Eu if you want to give me 3.750.000 for ebonhearth chateu, then ZOS will add a free zone.. maybe.

    There are already 23 zones in the base game filled with quests, dungeons, etc.. Getting more from DLC is well worth the money on a game as big as this.
