ESO Plus free Statues (need a change)

axan22 · July 2020

Any chance we can move to something different i have over 20 of these now, I really thought their would be more variety in items that were free. I'm sure we got a free costume etc at the beginning, like a costume every 3 months, or a weapon cosmetic series one each month maybe a pet every 6 months. just some variety please. I loved the statues to start with but now my house is full of them time to change it up.

But they haven’t given out the mudcrab statue yet 🦀

Lol, I agree with you but I don’t see those little ornaments ending anytime soon....

PrayingSeraph · July 2020

While i like the statues, some diversity in rewards would be nice.

statues for eso+

indriks for events

looks like a working strategy for next decade

max_only · July 2020

At first I thought they were a joke. A few were desirable. [snip]

[edited for bashing]

axan22 · July 2020

I dont mind the indriks but only as there is only bear, wolf, senche, horse, or camel, guar otherwise, they could think of more i'm sure and not just reskins.

Me, too! (^-^)/ And a huge Herma-Mora statue! (ÒwÓ)
Guys, if you can't fit new figurines in, which I doubt, thennjust exchange old ones for new, prettier ones. *shrugs* I like them, they're awesome and free.

this one wishes that at least they would change the kind of furnishing they are - as it is they punish long-term subscribers since they cannot put more than a certain number of statues in a house. This one would like to show that he has supported this game for years

Aptonoth · July 2020

Yeah I want something else now.

I got all the figurines on display. Still more than 20 slots free.

Then what shares their slots? This one cannot display all of them for some reason. Do they share slots with dungeon busts/heads?

Galwylin · July 2020

I don't mind them as is till they've run through what ever they are running through. I just don't think they are a selling point of ESO+ which was what they were supposed to help with. When its basically a statuette of the month club its a bit boring. The bag was nice until I didn't care about crafting, the statuettes were okay but I don't decorate and the crowns were fine until I feel like a chump spending them on sub-par over priced items (in my opinion). Overall the game just isn't exciting to be a part of and this is just after a new chapter dropped. They've become complacent and so have I letting a subscription run that gives nothing I care for. I've read the forum now for something interesting.

Asdara · July 2020

it's not just the statue....
The indriks, the calendar, almost every aspect of the game need some fresh air and some new stuff.
Ok they add a new zone with greymore, but IT'S the same stuff as everywhere! no originality.
You'll do 2 delves, the main story line as elsweyr but with vampire, the same quest, some WB, some anchor (oh scuse me """harrow storm""") and its over.
it's always the same stuff, over and over again.
Event? get another indriks!
New month? get this tiny pointless statue of that fat horker.

How about new weapon? Spell crafting? Skin for pets? New skill line? Rework the cp?
I'm at the point where I spend more time of the forum waiting for something new than in game, that's says a lot...

Antiquities? No?
And did you just call Nocturnal a fat horker?

Nomadic_Atmoran · July 2020

I dont have a problem with them. Just a statue to place on a desk or a hearth. I disagree that it needs to change.

but antiquities feels like a minigame i'll play on my phone, not a MAJOR feature of a year long story.

Luke_Flamesword · July 2020

I'm sick of statues too. This is too much - I don't mind them from time to time, but making them all time is boring. This is also pointless for all this non-housing players. Please, give us some variety

MaisonNaevius · July 2020

Hmm ... I imagine that a year in the Colovian Estates will make us have a miniature statue of Rislav Larich.

AdamBourke · July 2020

My ideas that I think would get people to sub more:

1) Every month provides all of the rewards for that month in previous years. This means that ESO+ sub is extra value for newcomers, at no real loss to existing subscribers (It's not like there are so few ESO+ subscribers that any of the rewards would be rare).

2) Continue to have a new collectible furnishing each month (probably not statuettes) - I think furnishing is something that is hard to come by without paying crowns, so even token collectible furnishings are a good draw.

3) Something else collectible for people who don't care about furnishings (They could do a style over the course of a year - then people have to sub for a whole year to get the whole set, and maybe give out a matching mount at Christmas)

4) "Map Fragments", 12 of which lead to a new player house (If my first point was added, then this would only need doing once). It would be even cooler if each of those fragments were found via a quest. Maybe one of the explorers you have already met in the game is searching for something and you have to find the map for them. Then it turns out to just be a house and you get to keep it...

TiberX · July 2020

I dont realy like The statues, cant realy find a place to put them and after i find a place its like meh.. ok, ill leave IT there. Cant we get a nice piece of furniture, music box a nice costume, a glowing thingy 😁. AT least not always The same.

It does feel like the imagination has run out here. It's all just more of the same, putting in as little effort as possible, never trying anything new and fresh.

Luke_Flamesword · July 2020

It's weird because these statues are need some effort (they are really detailed) so making them need some work and making new ideas - well, you can do it with no effort even in toilet

SydneyGrey · July 2020

I like them, but I wish they weren't always daedra. It would be nice to have little statues that were guars, or mudcrabs, or horses or something.

@karthrag_inak and storage chests as well I believe..

jorasupay · November 2020

I think there are two problems with the statues (also with the indriks)

On the one hand they already bore the players who have been putting them together for a long time.

On the other hand, those of us who started with ESO Plus a few months ago have missed many statues. I really want the statue of Azura (yes, I already have the big one) or Mephala, or many other of the former.
Also for different reasons I did not get to collect all the indriks, I would like a reboot but also some other collectible for those who already have them.

Re: Limited space/number of furnishings in your house

Idea: Since the free ESO+ statues, dungeon busts, etc., are part of Collections and don't take up any inventory or bank space, maybe you could have just one (or a few) on display at one time, and swap it out for a different one every so often?

Sensible option. Don't hold your breath on people embracing it wholesale though.

Ratzkifal · November 2020

The crown crates they used to give out during ESO+ free trials were better than those statues. If you didn't like what you got in your crate, you can turn it into gems and buy the things you actually want.

With the statues it's just people waiting for their favorite statue to come around and once they have it they stop caring about them. Aside from the weird hoarders who have a house exclusively filled with thousands of these tiny statues. For them it's a blessing, so if possible, let's keep the statues around but add something for the rest of the playerbase.

The ESO+ deals are a nothing burger. They just want to get you to spend more in addition to your ESO+ instead of actually rewarding your loyalty.
