Literally a middle finger on the face like how they announced Diablo immortal for mobile. I must say, it is a sad day for those longing for a decent Dwarven spider mount.
Discounted price they said. Exclusive mount they said.
Imo, at this price rate, this should be exclusive instead of early access for this kind of quality or It should at least have some VFX included. But seeing this price tag for just a simple mount reskin, it saddens me to think of the price of radiant/apex mounts if they were sold in crownstore instead of clown crates. Also since this is a new ESO+ model, I think this is their marketing team testing the waters so thread carefully guys unless you want to see more of these in the future.

ImmortalCX✭✭✭✭✭When you complain about the price, it just makes it more desirable to the kinds of players who would spend that money.
To a wealthy person, 3500 crown is literally less than a penny to most normal people.2 -

✭Mount is another dirt reskin.
I agree when OP says, tread carefully. But this dirt now, dont be surprised if you just signed up to that being the roof of ZOS' efforts.4 -

Yeah but dwemer stuff looks like trash, so they have to be both rich and have bad taste.14 -

✭✭I will say that I'm somewhat disappointed that the ESO+ discount on "exclusive offers" is only 10%. This price is 10% off of 4,000 crowns, which is presumably the price that everyone will pay next month. That's the same price of the previous reskin (the blue-light special). The original was 3,000 crowns, but pretty basic, which is exactly what I wanted.
I'm also disappointed that the "exclusive offers" appear to only be timed exclusives, so everyone will have access to them at some point. I'm hoping there will be other exclusive offers which are either discounted more or not time-exclusive.
Also hoping that future "exclusive discounts" won't be on gambling.
I'm happy to pay an outright price for something rather than gamble for it. This price is not enough to tempt me to buy it, because it's still more expensive than the original one, which I think looks the best. This one, I don't really like the look of, so it's not worth the price to me. But, someone else who really likes this version and/or really wants a spider mount and missed out on the first two, may think the price is fair (or not).
Price is relative, as what is perfectly reasonable to someone is perfectly outrageous to another. We all have our limits, and rightly so, as we all have different incomes/budgets. But, these are still just cosmetic items and aren't a necessity in life and not even a necessity to play this game. I have to remind myself of this, and it's helped me to become more selective on the items I do purchase in the Crown Store. Unless it's something I really want at a price I'm willing/can afford to pay, then I pass. ZOS is presumably pricing these items according to previous sales. If the first reskin didn't sell at 4,000 crowns, the price on this one might have been lower. But perhaps enough people were willing to spend an additional 1000 crowns for blue lights (over the original 3,000 crown version) to cause them to price this one the same.7 -

✭The shiny motives on the special mount look cool, but not worth so much. I got my "normal" Dwarven Spider Mount for 100 free gems, which I received from free crown crates. No way I could buy it in different dye for that money. PC EU (PL): 14 characters. ESO player since 06.08.2015. Farkas finest quote: "Some people don't think I'm smart. Those people get my fist.

✭✭✭✭✭Yeah, there's already a discussion about this in the Crown Store section.
We already pay for the game with our subscriptions, and they reward us for that by ... seriously overcharging us for a recolored mount. Yeah, not buying that one.30 -

The Place by Tony Walsh Please ReadThis is the place in the North West of England
It’s ace, it’s the best and the songs that we sing
From the stands, from our bands set the whole planet shaking
Our inventions are legends! There’s nowt we can’t make and
So we make brilliant music. We make brilliant bands
We make goals that make souls leap from seats in the stands
And we make things from steel and we make things from cotton
And we make people laugh, take the mick summat rotten
And we make you at home and we make you feel welcome
And we make summat happen, we can’t seem to help it
And if you’re looking for history then yes, we’ve a wealth
But the Manchester way is to make it yourself
And make us a record, a new number one
And make us a brew while you’re up, love. Go on!
And make us feel proud that you’re winning the league
And make us sing louder and make us believe it
that this is the place that has helped shape the world
And that this the place where a Manchester girl
Name of Emmeline Pankhurst from the streets of Moss Side
Led a Suffragette City with sisterhood pride
And this is the place with appliance of science
We’re on it, atomic, we strut with defiance
In the face of a challenge we always stand tall
Mancunians in union delivered it all
Such as housing and libraries, and health, education
And unions and co-ops, the first railway station
So we’re sorry! Bear with us! We invented commuters!
But we hope you forgive us – we invented computers!
And this is the place Henry Royce strolled with Rolls
And we’ve rocked and we’ve rolled with our own Northern Soul
And so this is the place to do business, then dance
Where go-getters and goal setters know they’ve a chance
And this is the place where we first played as kids
And me Mam lived and died here, she loved it she did
And this is the place where our folks came to work
Where they struggled in puddles, they hurt in the dirt
And they built us a city. They built us these towns
And they coughed on the cobbles to the deafening sound
Of the steaming machines and the screaming of slaves
They were scheming for greatness, they dreamed to their graves
And they left us a spirit, they left us a vibe
The Mancunian Way to survive and to thrive
And to work and to build, to connect and create and
Greater Manchester’s greatness is keeping it great
And so this is the place now we’ve kids of our own
Some are born here, some drawn here but we all call it home
And they’ve covered the cobbles, but they’ll never defeat
All the dreamers and schemers who still teem through these streets
Because this is a place that has been through some hard times
Oppressions, recessions, depressions and dark times
But we keep fighting back with Greater Manchester spirit
Northern grit, northern wit in Greater Manchester’s lyrics
And there’s hard times again in these streets of our city
But we won’t take defeat and we don’t want your pity
Because this a place where we stand strong together
With a smile on our face, Mancunians Forever
And we’ve got this* as the place where a team with a dream (*Forever Manchester)
Can get funding and something to help with their scheme
Because this is the place that understands your grand plans
We don’t do No Can Do, we just stress Yes We Can!
Forever Manchester’s a charity for people round ‘ere
You can fundraise, donate. You can be a volunteer
You can live local, give local. We can honestly say
We do charity differently, that Mancunian Way
And we fund local kids, and we fund local teams
We support local dreamers to work for their dreams
We support local groups and the great work they do
So can you …help us help… local people like you?
Because this is the place in our hearts, in our homes
Because this is the place that’s a part of our bones
‘Cos Greater Manchester gives us such strength from the fact
That this is the place. We should give something back.
Always remember. Never forget. Forever Manchester.5 -

U don't tell us what to spend our money on. This mount is merely cosmetic it it was p2w I would agree. I'm glad this atleast isn't in a crown crateEdited by Aliyavana on November 13, 2018 8:01PM4 -
Deyirn✭✭✭I don't get why people even care about mounts and other cosmetics. I like my default brown horse and how I can use the Outfitting station to make my character look like regular NPC that blends in rather than look like some shiny superhero, like the rest of the shiny superheroes.
