Suggestion: Crown Purchased Races

Crown Purchased Races:

The Crown store has been lacking on skins and polymorphs recently, and I wonder if it was because of their poor sales. Because of this, and with the introduction of Time Rifts tied in with the Psijic Order, I thought there might be a golden opportunity here.

I am suggesting that the forgotten races (and some still in existence) of Elder Scrolls be purchasable through the Crown Store, just as the Imperial race is. These new races do not require custom poly-skeletons as they can match to an existing structure; but these would have unique features, skins, and colors. Additionally, these new races could have unique combinations of passives; or simply copy existing templates (e.g. Lilmothiit would have the same passives as an Altmer ( Yes, a true furcaster ) or Alyeids would be the same as Redguards).

I believe this would be add a lot of diversity to the game, increase Crown revenue, and make a lot of people happy.

Examples of Poly-skeleton Cohesion:
Altmer:
  • The Ayleids
  • The Dwemer
Khajiit:
  • The Lilmothiit
Dunmer:
  • The Chimer
Breton:
  • The Akaviri
Argonian:
  • Naga


Although 0 is not a poll option, ESO could grant races during special months of Daily Log Ins. Or, I could gift them to you <3


Other possible races:
Tsaeci, Ka'Po'Tun, Tang Mo, and Maormer

    I would pay zero dollars. This sounds like a money grab and you missed the option for not buying anything. I purchased the Imperial edition and regret it

    I have 3 imperials, they are a great addition to my character portfolio. And yes, Shaiel, this is a money making suggestion for ZOS. I didnt put a 0 option for a reason.

    All the Lilmothiit are dead. All the ayleid are gone (King Dynar is literally the last of the Ayleids). The Dwemer are all gone (except Yagrum). And the Chimer have become the Dunmer (except maybe a few on some island somewhere but thats not been confirmed). The Akaviri have been consumed by the Tsaesci (if its happened yet, we don't know anything about them, and nobody wants then to just become a random playable race).

    The only races anyone could deem feasible for playing are the Maormer, the Naga, and the Reachmen. Those are the only choices.

    Time....Rifts....

    They'd have to be races that are currently in Tamriel, not extinct (or mostly extinct) races.

    The Dwemer disappeared. With rare exceptions like Yagrum Bagarn in Morrowind, they are gone. This is one of the enduring mysteries of the Elder Scrolls series, and the answer should not be Crowns.

    The Chimer have been utterly transformed by Azura into the Dunmer. So unless you are Almalexia, Sotha Sil or Vivec, or an ancient Chimer who invented a time machine, you are a Dunmer. No, you can't bribe Azura with Crowns.

    Why do people rush to disregard game lore so they can buy whatever they think is cool? Its like asking to buy a dragon mount. No!

    Also, did you miss that the Psijic Time Rifts are bad things, and your job is to close them?

    Feed a time rift a dollar, get a new race. Call me Chaotic Evil.

    Because you knew the 0 option would get the most votes.

    Its got my vote, for sure.

    This thread is for people who spend money on the crown store. Sorry.

    The thing is, there's no comfirmation that the Lilmothiit are actually extinct. It's only speculated. They may be alive. Who knows.

    They did say on the last ESO live that all the Lilmothiits are gone. So according to zos and bethesda theyre gone.

    That would work. Or they could be given as daily rewards, for those who dont buy outright.

    You messed it up in your samples.

    However, I would embrace a new playable race.

    I would like to see the original falmer, who could be a frost variant of Dunmer or Altmer, or a magicka variant of Nord or Imperial.
    It just works, it just works, little lies, stunning shows,
    people buy, money flows, it just works.
    It just works, it just works, overpriced open worlds,
    earnings rise, take my word: IT JUST WORKS!

    I nerfed my wallet in Jan 2017. I altered my wallet status to closed in May 2019.
