For what reason then? Do you even know how to make a non biased poll?Unknown_Redemption wrote: »VaranisArano wrote: »Unknown_Redemption wrote: »shaielzafine wrote: »I would pay zero dollars.

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.
As for your other replies implying that the people voting "no" to your biased poll don't buy things in the crown store, FYI I've spent at least $1700 USD on this game. This thread & use of the forums is absolutely for anyone that has this game. ANYONE who has ever bought a copy of ESO is a paying customer, not just people that spend extra on the crown store or people who have ESO+. ESO's business model is Buy To Play + ESO Subscription + Crown Store Cosmetics & Upgrades.
Your suggestion is a terrible rip off, especially when compared to other mmo games like WoW where they make extra races unlockable through playing the game as part of an expansion.
Games like Star Citizen will charge tens of thousands of dollars. In fact, I paid $27,000 for their bundle. See, I can use examples too.
So are you telling me you paid $27k for a bundle that includes extra races in Star Citizen? LOL. As far as I know, Star Citizen isn't even out yet. When is that MMO even going to be released?
And I was talking specifically about YOUR topic which was implementing extra races in an MMO. And I compared how an already existing game within the same genre as ESO has done that without putting it in their crown store. Plenty of people came back to play the new expansion with the new races and they incentivized leveling new toons, which means they made money since people bought the expansion and continue to sub as they play.
Nice way of ignoring the rest of what I said, by the way. Sounds like you went off topic and just wanted to mention how much money you spent on Star Citizen. Your poll is biased and isn't even in the correct section of the forums.
Honestly, I can't imagine someone willingly spending 27k on a bundle of ingame stuff for a game that isnt even out yet.PC - NACP 810

Some people would do it a week, a month, a year, or 4 years after the introduction of Ayleids into the store.

That's how you make a biased poll.
Look at the thread title. It is not a valid option.
Duhhh because you didn't put it as an option, that way the ONLY votes you get are people willing to pay for this crap. Biased poll.
There should be an option where people are able to vote against it or else the data you're collecting is skewed from the get-go. Pointless waste of time.
Correct, this is a Crown Thread for people who buy stuff.
Except it isn’t, because a bunch of us can’t vote. “Buys stuff from crown store” =/= “buys anything and everything from the crown store.” We can and do boycott stupid crown store things we don’t like. Like crown soul gems (seriously, who buys that?). This would be on the big list of ‘no’ only worse than crown gems because it’s lore breaking. It’s bad enough we have this stupid Halloween crap in the game.
I buy the gems.
Why would you buy Crown Soul Gems? Just, why?

I first met him in Glenumbra prior to Coldharbor, so I'm going to have to disagree. But, you know, we seem to do that a lot in this thread, so whatever.
Point is, I appreciate the stories ZOS has created from the established lore. I think that throwing out the established lore for the sake of getting access to cool races is a bad idea, both for the sake of new players and those of us who appreciate The Elder Scrolls series for its lore.
The Ayleids aren't running around Tamriel. Pelinal Whitestake had something to do with that, along with the Alessian Order. The Fighters Guild quests add more detail to the fall of the Ayleids. King Dynar, yeah, he's got his part in that.
The Dunmer are no longer the Chimer. Thats like a huge part of the foundational lore of TES III Morrowind.
So seriously, I'm fine with your suggestions for the lore friendly player character races. But your other suggestions show a lack of respect for established TES lore and now, for the new players still experiencing these quests for the first time. I'm not fine with that.
But as I said, we seem to disagree a lot in this thread and I doubt we'll convince each other otherwise however much we repeat ourselves. So have a nice night! -

No. This is a true suggestion, the races presented were just spitballed ideas. The poll, at the end of the day, should show ZOS that people are willing to pay for more races, whatever they may be.

Ayleid story can be expanded with with at least Wild Elves. Their story could become more than just one character. There could simply be others who managed to move back, or build secluded townsIn the wilds of most every province of Tamriel, descended philosophically if not directly from the original inhabitants of the land are the Ayleids, commonly called the Wild Elves. While three races of elven stock, Salache (or High), Boiche (or Wood), and Moriche (or Dark) have assimilated well to the new cultures of Tamriel, the Ayleids and their brethren have remained aloof of our civilization, preferring to practice the old ways far from the eyes of the world.
The Wild Elves speak a variation of Old Cyrodilic and not Tamrielic, separating themselves further even than their more urbanized Elven cousins. In temperament they are dark-spirited and taciturn, though they doubtless act differently with outsiders (or "Pellani" in their tongue) than within their own tribes. Indeed, one of the finest sages of the University of Gwilym was a civilized Ayleid elf, Tjurhane Fyrre (1E 2790 - 2E 227) whose published work on Wild Elves suggests a lively, vibrant culture. Fyrre is one of the very few Ayleids to speak freely on his people and religion, and even he said "the nature of the tribes of Ayleid are multi-hued, their personalities often wildly different from their neighbor tribes."
Lore offers a potential mystery; why just end it there with one character? Same goes for dwarvers in the lore, noone knows for certain according to the lore.Edited by arasysb14_ESO on September 17, 2018 3:31AMArasys Llanor, CP 800+ Magicka Sorcerer NA

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.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, perhaps you just wanted to pad your post count?
No. This is a true suggestion, the races presented were just spitballed ideas. The poll, at the end of the day, should show ZOS that people are willing to pay for more races, whatever they may be.
Well....
Twenty-nine people might be.
Im not here to be popular or for a psychological need to be praised, Sylv
*sigh* That wasn't the point of my post. The point is, that a vanishingly small number of people (compared to the number who post here on a regular basis - NOT just in this poll thread) is not going to convince ZOS that defunct races are current lore and should be placed on the store for gobs of crowns.
Now, given that - if this was not an MMO, I wouldn't even care. If this was TES VI or TES XX or whatever, that's fine, because those of us who embrace lore in our playstyles wouldn't ever have to see defunct races. But in an MMO - ESO to be specific - it would cause many players to be jerked out of lore (and that's sometimes difficult enough to begin with - to not get blindsided by things that are.... out of place or time or phase....) As I said in another thread (and I do wonder if the person starting it might be an alt of yours on another account, considering the "aptness" of the registration time and the.... um.... wholesale agreement with your premise....)Sylvermynx wrote: »You know, it's possible that TES VI (or later, if there is a later) might offer some DLC content with some of those races - which would of course be totally at the discretion of the player, since TES is a SPMR game series. In that case, that would be fine, because those of us who have lore issues with stuff (and in general aren't fond of "time warp" stuff or whatever mechanism might be chosen to account for extinct races becoming a thing) wouldn't have to deal with lore-breaking stuff in our single-player games.
But ESO? Where if you show up in Vivec on a Dwemer, I have to pretend I don't see you and then for some weird reason you message me about something?
No thanks.
And as well - I just don't personally need more races. I haven't even bought the Imperial race even though it's cheap enough, since I don't really care much for Imperials, and the rest of what's in the package isn't anything I want. I guess there are people who think the more the better, and really, if it wasn't an MMO, that would be fine.
But in ESO, those who would run a defunct race when you're not the only snowflake in the sky - well, you're stuffing it up the noses of people who have love of (or at least some respect for) the lore. -
