    Craftbag, doubled bank space and the fact I payed for ESO when it was P2P, so why I wouldn't do that now?

    Yes, for the craft bag mainly. Won't be renewing this time, my sorc main is useless now and I'm slowly moving away from the game.

    DLC, Storage and Crafting Bag.

    Furnisher cap is kinda meh and feels arbitrary even with ESO+.

    Because I like accomplishing crafting and leveling the hard way. I'll buy each DLC independently, so if I take a break I won't have to cancel / resubscribe each break. Buying pack and bank storage the hard way also, bc most of Tamriel (especially overland stuff) is easy enough already. The achievement grind takes time and patience more than excessive skill (except for vet dungeons, arenas, & PvP.)

    Yes, mainly for the extra bank space and the craftbag. I also enjoy the game, very much in fact despite the flaws so I sub to support. I don't play games I don't enjoy and the constant changes don't really make or break the game for me as I adjust to change quite well.

    I buy the dlc I like as I go as I know eventually my playtime in ESO will diminish to the point a sub is no longer useful and I'll simply be in maintenance mode when playing, a daily here or there, a dungeon here and there, etc.

    The crafting bag and subscription crowns you get are reasons enough. Having access to every single DLC is just the cherry on top for me.

    I have ESO plus mainly for the the crafting bag. It helps tremendously when I am gathering or doing crafting writs across several different characters. Also, the extra bank space it really nice too.

    crafting bag, its that simple. everything else i can do without, but not being able to store the vast hoards of mats i get just from gaming gets to be irksome

    I see a lot of people saying crafting bag. And that's just what I mean when intentionally crippling the game to motivate spending. They design loot to be tedious without a craft bag, then charge ~$150/year for avoiding the issue.

    ESO+ is a crafting bag. Thats it. Never ever getting it.

    -You pay monthly to sustain your access to all dlcs where you end up paying way more overall than the dlc is actually worth.

    -Monthly crowns is not great at all. I could buy more crowns when i actually want them instead of waiting til the end of each month.

    -The extra XP boost isnt worth it because you get free XP scrolls from daily rewards. I wont miss the extra 10% Bonus XP

    -I dont wear costumes, so i would never dye them

    -Bank and inventory space is manageable without the double bank space and craft bag eso+ offers. Had the game on xb1 since release. I only have 1 character. I use only what i need and i still have bag and bank space i need to buy. If i get overwhelmed, i could save up writ vouchers to buy storage chests in my house (only for armour).

    -Double house space is cool, but you can make your house look great without it.

    ESO+ is not a requirement and you can survive without it. For what it actually offers, it is not worth getting.

    No, and that's because it ran out. I should be getting it back tomorrow. I can't deal with playing ESO without it, especially being a crafter.

    I don't want to spend even more. During 2017 I've spent almost 2 times more than 12 months subscription costs. If I subscribe, I know I stlii will be buying crown packs in addition to those "free" crowns from subscription.
    One of the two of us definitely has gone mad. It only remains to define whether this one is the whole world or just me.

    Literally just cancelled my sub (minutes ago) after a month and change back. I wanted to have faith in Zenimax/Bethesda but honestly I am reminded why I left for as long as I did.

    Between the *** implementation of the event ticket reset, and the lack of communication about the murkmire freebie (or in my case what will I get since I bought the collectors edition since I wasn't around when they announce free murkmire) I just don't feel they deserve my support. Too many f2p and better b2p games exist on the market. I'll possibly see how things go no sub for the next event but I forsee a conversation with my bank being the ultimate outcome before the end of the year.

    I really hate knowing I'm having a degraded experience if I don't sub. Simple. If the craft bag went up for sale and I purchased it, I'd probably still sub so long as I was playing.

    I do. I always do my best to support the games I play, especially when they run a FTP model. The benefits for plus members make it a no brainer, too.

    However, I lately have become more and more bored and disillusioned with ESO, and I find I miss the older style MMO's...which means I will probably be spending less time in ESO in favor of Brad McQuaid's new project. At that point we'll see if I still keep plus.

    Brad's going to try...again? Well, hope it goes better for him this time and more power to him for not giving up.

    I like the benefits, many things feel easier while subscribed.

    But I don't have subscription all the time. Last 4 months I went without, and it started to get tricky to manage materials.

    I love the craft bag as I do a lot of farming and of course double bank space , extra decoration for housing slots and finally the addition of DLC's

    All good reasons to subscribe and I was lucky enough to get money to subscribe for a year as a birthday pressie from my son !

    Ahh.. I wonder who hasn't mentioned craftbag yet. Ha ha.. well, and the crowns that come with it. I actually bought the 6-months one so to get the 9000 crowns, and that's also 6-months worth of craft bags. Haaa

    Less time to play these days. Also, I find eso+ is best used to sweep out the storage and possibly take advantage of a promotion when available.

    Convenience? -Yes
    Requirement? -No

    For example, I'm saving enchanting surveys in house coffers until the next time I sub. After all the doom & gloom about Murkmire, I'm definitely waiting until after the dust settles. Looking to hold out until at least 2019 if I can.

    My feelings on this is either in or out. If I'm going to play ESO I will just treat it like a subscription type game and get all the game has to offer. If I lose interest or stop playing I will cancel my sub and stop playing. I don't want to play ESO in some half-ass state like some kind of MMO peon..without storage space or all the full features of the game. Plus it gives me access to all the DLC I never picked up and would have paid for had I been playing when it released which is just an added bonus.
