Hi
I have been playing the game quite a while now on and off and have already bought all the dlc apart from Shadow Of The Hist, which I didn't really fancy. How would I benefit from buying ESO plus ?. I know the crafting bag is a major help and apparently good, but that's about it. I won't benefit from DLC as I already have it, or the ones I want. I just can't decide :( .
Any help with me deciding the issue would be greatly appreciated.

    @Wizhunter

    Depends if you need bank/bag space or not.

    The way I see it ESO+ is the same price as 1500 crowns (you get 1650 per month) & i'm likely to buy crowns anyway so why not get the extra goodies.

    It depends - are you a casual player with one or two characters? Then, no. Are you a "heavy" player with more than 3 characters, busy crafter and/or fan of decorating houses? Then it will make your life really, and I mean really a lot easier.

    Pros:
    - Crafting bag, duh!
    - 2x more bank and house slots
    - cheaper crowns (1650 after Murkmire drops!)
    - special offers for the ESO+ subscribers in the Crown Store, also after Murkmire

    Cons:
    - you are supporting a company who, let's say, sometimes cares more for their profits then the playerbase.

    In my opinion, if you are Elder Scrolls fan and play this game more than once a week, it's worth it. You can always buy ESO+ every other month, just to clean your inventory and grab some "free" crowns.

    Do you feel like you need the additional things that ESO Plus offers?

    Crafting Bag, Housing Item Cap, Double Bank Space, XP Bonus.

    There is also soon to be an ESO Plus exclusive section to the Crown Store, if you're into goodies from there then it might interest you.

    Otherwise you're in one of the situations where it's hard to tell if it's better to get ESO Plus as you've already invested money in buying DLC.

    Of the three responses I have read, the one thing they don't say is support the game. If you love ESO then support it.

    CROWN CRATES: It doesn't affect gameplay, it's not mandatory, it's cosmetic only. If it helps to support the game and ZOS, I support it! Say YES to crown crates.

    It really does come down to storage.

    If you craft, playing without ESO+ is painful.

    If you hoard, like many of us do, no having that extra bank space is limiting.

    If you like to play the house game, it is damn near required for the large manors.

    So from a purely pragmatic stance, that is what you should look at.

    There will be come more small benefits after mid November, with exclusive sales and discounts.

    Of course it's also nice to support the game.

    The bag space and crowns alone, pay for itself.

    That's the long and short of ESO+ for me - the crafting bag, as well as the additional experience. I'm used to paying subscriptions and cancelling one to pay for another, so I've 'traded' my WoW sub for ESO+ for a time. Because I'm levelling professions and I'm heavily invested in them, the crafting bag is a lifesaver. In fact, for someone like me it's too good to miss out on.

    You own all the DLC barring one, so there's not really much point if you're not interested in the passive perks such as experience gain and crafting space. If you've seen and done everything and aren't interested in maxing out "cosmetic" content, I would recommend against it.

    I think the OP has given plenty of support with how much DLC they've purchased in the past. Of course, it's their money to do what they want with. ^^

    Thanks for the replies guys and sorry I haven't replied, been quite ill with some sort of bug. I thought about the crafting bag and decided to get ESO+ , main reason is I have one of each class, one being Magicka and obviously the Other being Stamina.
    My main is a NB which is pretty much maxed out on Crafting except for cooking, I found that no matter how much bag space you have they are constantly full with all sorts of mats, so the bottomless crafting bag you get with plus has really helped me already. The crowns you get with + is also good though I don't look at the store until new content comes out. I had a couple of WoW subs that I really wasn't using so decided to get rid of them and just focus on Elder Scrolls. Just need a mature guild now to enable me to do dungeon content which I haven't done (never liked pugging)
    Thanks for all the help :)
