    what a bunch of whinging whining wasters of air you all are!

    Its a simple enough deal - pay the sub for the defined benefits - or don't.

    why there is there an expectation of 'free stuff' at all?

    Too many people with too great a sense of entitlement...

    What they need to start doing when giving free weeks is moving the ESO+ payers date to pay up a week. Then at least it's really a free weekend to all.

    Weird part is Zenimax seems to be having money problems to have so many of these free weekends. Maybe they should just move past this whole crown store thing and make the game a monthly sub for all. Like I stated in past, maybe even up the monthly charge a couple of bucks. Yet it sure seems like they are hurting for money.

    I would just quit playing if that happened...

    ZOS would have basically stole the game and all the DLCs I bought from me.
    Toon list:
    PC NA:
    Chip Ahoy: Magicka Templar khajiit WW healer and crafter of metals, clothes, leather and wood
    Rose Scale: Magicka Nightblade argonian WW DPS and 'evil' toon (steals stuff from barrels)
    Snip Ahoy: Stamina Dragonknight khajiit WW tank
    Walks-Through-Corn: Magicka Templar argonian Vampire tank and also cooks food
    Snowy Kitten: Magicka Sorcerer khajiit WW healer and also makes glyphs
    Valerie Ahoy: Stamina Nightblade khajiit WW DPS/tank
    Mixes-With-Mud: Stamina Warden khajiit WW DPS and also mixes potions
    Tyrenan: Magicka Warden khajiit healer
    Always-Brings-Light: Magicka Dragonknight argonian WW DPS
    Howls-At-Moons: Stamina Warden argonian WW healer
    Giggles-At-Everything: Stamina Sorc argonian WW DPS
    Hugger-Of-Griffons: Stamina DK argonian WW poison focused DPS and ring/necklace crafter.

    Wishlist from ZOS: Chestnut Unicorn mount and the Lilmothiit race, would definitely pay 10K crowns or even 20K crowns for it.

    I always enjoy getting the free crown crates. I don't always like what's in them but turned in what I could for gems. Disappointed they took that away.

    I had no expectations where the free crates were concerned so them not being offered was no big deal

    except....

    the only time I got a radiant apex was in a freebie........

    I think as long as I just don't give a damn I'll be fine.

    As for the offers for members... I fully expect a large chunk of them to miss the mark, its what I've come to expect over the last couple years with the very occasional good thing thrown in. I'll just meh and ignore the majority and say thank you when something decent does crop up.

    Though my base expectations being where they are.... doesn't say much for the marketing team at all.

    Who is actually going to spend that much on the reskinned spider? Ridiculous.
    Remember when ZoS put out a dark elk mount for 4000 crowns?

    Also can we get more elk mounts? I kinda want one because I don’t have an elk mount yet, and I love deer 💕 - but no way am I paying 4,000 for a mount.

    We remember that December. We don't forget.

    Dark Elk? I first read it as dark elf. What fantastic justice it would be to have my Khajiit getting pulled around in a rickshaw by a dark elf!

    Dark Elf mounts please!

    More likely the forgot to update the banner text, which... L-O-FREAKING-L

    They should fix it to say "Already a member? Log in now to pay $40 for a spider mount!"

    Gave me a good chuckle on this miserable work day.

    If that is still up on their website with today's date, I do believe they would be legally required to provide the Crown Crates considering a large number of players do not frequent notifications from the forum. Otherwise someone could go at them for false advertising.

    Being a customer with a complaint does not equal whiny and entitled.

    Learn the difference. You've got no right to berate paying customers with a legitimate grievance.

    In no walk of life are you entitled to benefit retrospectively from a promotion of a product that you already bought.

    So you do NOT have a legitimate grievance.

    So they really keep only the special mount discount as eso plus bonus.

    Nice move, the paying customer will be thrilled by that.

    They've taken away the freebies and replaced them with something they want us to PAY for. :P

    It’s pretty much natural progression. They are obviously doing okay subscriber wise as they don’t feel we need as much free stuff to keep us. TBH though, I could do without another Reaper crate anyway. I was kinda disappointed they were basically the same as last year. I already had most of the junk.

    As mentioned above, ESO Plus Free Trial members will not benefit from the above rewards and bonuses.

    I'm guessing that's the reason for the no crates - all those "new ESO+ features" (crown store discounts & exclusives/etc) are only for actual ESO+ subbers. So that's your "but I'm already subbed!" bonus.

    Oh boy what a bonus, the offer to SPEND MORE MONEY.
