    If you haven't played since beginning of January today is the last day to qualify.

    January 2017. Chances are, if someone hasn't played since then, they're probably not reading the forums. ;)

    Yeah, first time also read as 2019, was a bit surprised that there's no time to log in to get it, and tried to remember if my friends played last month. Then noticed...

    Oh, I think that's normal! I had to double take as well when I first read it. A 2 year period to earn the free crowns seems awfully generous!

    What only 500 crowns, how pathetic. They can't even make it a decent amount that we deserve.

    Also this should be illegal, has anyone checked with one of the Belgium courts, after all this is just like gambling, you have to have played in a certain time period therefor you gave something of value to get crowns, I am sure this is illegal in several European courts, talk about greedy.
    /sarc off

    On a much more realistic note, Thank you Zos, you deserved those awards and ESO is a great game!

    We could have gotten free crate for each day of paid ESO plus during the free trial - and that would be much better than 500 crowns :) But I still like this little gift, it's nice, thanks :) I actually used my own crowns to buy Telvanni Wizard-Lord Robe this time (I really wanted to see how it dyes and didn't want to bother with gifting :D ), and this means I bought one awesome costume for 100 crowns <3 No regrets at all.

    Nice! But thank you, developers, for continuing to make this a great game! It has its quirks, but on the whole, it's certainly among the best RPGs I've played in terms of sheer quality and quantity of story/lore content.

    Hmmm. That means I have 1k crowns on my 2 alternate accounts for potential gifting to my main account. I don't really use the alternates for anything.

    Cool thing to do, though I'm already sitting on 10k crowns waiting for more character slots or new assistants. That will only go up from future ESO+ re-subs.

    Pass on crates over crowns. They have a value of about zero crowns to me. I can hold on to the crowns to get something useful. If they ever release something useful again. I'm not saying I don't like free crates. I do. But I would never spend a single crown on them. Normally I would say that I wouldn't spend a single crown on any cosmetics, but my toddler likes the pets so I would consider spending a few crowns on an animal she likes.

    Why to 1000? It's still a rip off since many wouldn't need it at all if not these racial changes.

    500 would be fair.
    Last year I got the whole Orsinium dlc for 750 crowns...
