The craft bag is one of the biggest reasons people sub.

I can't afford a lamborgini, but I think it's only fair that I get to drive one anyway

Actually, no, it's a perfect equivalency. The Crafting Bag isn't a necessity of life, it's a nice to have. Anyone saying the craft bag is "necessary" probably doesn't rememver that the game launched without one. That's right, everyone who played at launch had 6 alts JUST FOR STORAGE. Bag and bank space were more limited too. So yes, you can play this game just fine, and have all the crafrting mats, if you're willing to alt a billion times to pull mats from mules.
The crafting bag was the original OP reward for continuing to support the game after it went free to play. Guess what? You want the reward, pay for it like the rest of us. You can't get everything for free just by showing up an complaining.
Or the game can go back to being subscription only and I'm sure we'd all get craft bag "free."

I do remember pre-crafting bag. I stopped playing apart from playing through new narrative content because inventory management was horrible. Using alts for storage was a horrible experience and a joyless time sink.

Also, 20 of each item? 20 is nothing. Most of the junk that clutters up the craft bag very quickly goes into the dozens-to-hundreds. Only stuff I have less than 20 of is rare stuff, like Nirncruxes or Roe, or JC platings.
Depends on what is meant by "20 items". Is that 20 item stacks, each stacking actually allowing millions of that same item? That's how the crafting bag works currently; or did the OP mean actually only 20 items?
20 items of each type mat

This would be completely, totally useless. Simply going from one quest to another and picking up any mats along the way will fill your faux craftbag.

Thus your reason for subscribing. No matter what you think about the game, the devs have to pay rent. Making you smile does not pay rent, medical bills, groceries, etc. The pittance they charge for DLC doesn't either. So be an adult and pay for a game you obviosuly like, or stop whining.

Calculate your per min entertainment cost of an ESO sub versus other common entertainment costs. Doesn't even compare. I'm guessing most on here are not casual players. You should pay if you're spending this much time on it.
I guarantee as soon as those 20 slots are full, you'll be back here demanding an increase to 50 then 100, then 200 then hey why not the whole thing free?
Craft bag in ANY form must remain sub only.

In game theory and economic theory, a zero-sum game is a mathematical representation of a situation in which each participant's gain or loss of utility is exactly balanced by the losses or gains of the utility of the other participants. If the total gains of the participants are added up and the total losses are subtracted, they will sum to zero. Thus, cutting a cake, where taking a larger piece reduces the amount of cake available for others, is a zero-sum game if all participants value each unit of cake equally (see marginal utility).
In contrast, non-zero-sum describes a situation in which the interacting parties' aggregate gains and losses can be less than or more than zero. A zero-sum game is also called a strictly competitive game while non-zero-sum games can be either competitive or non-competitive. Zero-sum games are most often solved with the minimax theorem which is closely related to linear programming duality,[1] or with Nash equilibrium.
Allowing people a small craftbag does not produce a zero-sum game. You do not lose what they gain and vise-versa.
In fact it's just a win.

No it is not a win. When you receive a piece for free of what I pay for in this game you have taken advantage of my resources and you are not equally bearing the burden of sustaining the game we both enjoy.
In short you have the greater gain at my expense. So get off the subscription paying class's back and start supporting this hobby with the rest of us who do. As I said before..[snip].

AS a subscriber i lose nothing by having people get a small craft bag for free. that's a fact. fact is neither does anyone else lose anything.
just like you lose noting when people who don't pay for eso + get a bank space or houses to purchase or anything else.
Fact is as a subscriber i get double of those things i and i lose nothing when a non eso+ subscriber gets some of them for free.
