Imperial Race is still locked behind paywall

    You also have to pay for 2 of the classes. At least with the Imperial race you’re not missing much as far as gameplay.

    It is what it is. Pay or not pay. In the end it’s not that big a deal.

    If you as a customer value your time and money, it is rather a big deal that video game developers these days have taken to cutting out content from finished products to sell back to the customers for an additional fee.

    uhhh, no. the base game was a finished game, then they added additional things, that you could get, or not. I remember back in the day, you didn't get patches for a game. It was just, ah they game had bugs? oh well, too bad, that's just the game for you, no refunds. Just because a game get's a bunch of patches later that makes the game better doesn't mean it was "unfinished."

    The idea that ZOS needs the money from this at this point is laughable, it shouldn’t be behind a paywall

    Tbh i’d like a majority of the older content such as orsinium, the guild content, and the older dungeon packs to be made free. If imperial city was moved off and i don’t see why more DLC shouldn’t be

    In order to substantiate your claim, please confirm for how long your personally-owned company made a profit before being able to afford to relax your charging practice.

    To be fair the sell all the expansions for $60 rn, at least on steam.
    $20+1 $40 expansion=$60

    $40+$40+$40+$40+$40=$200

    So it's not far fetced making orsinium free, or at least the imperial race.

    Orsinium okay, becauase of Maelstrom Arena makes sense. The imperial race though I just don't see the point.

    unless you are heavy into roleplay/lore there is not a whole lot of difference between races....(except Argonians are OP)

    Ah yes, please reduce the value of ESO+. I'm sure subscribers and shareholders would love this idea.

    You want things (Imperial race, DLCs, craft bag) but don't want to pay for ESO+ or crowns. We get it.

    I don't understand why they should be free. The base game story is a war for the Imperial city between the other races and their respective alliances. Imperials do not fit into any specific alliance. The argument that they should be included in the base game and free doesn't make sense. I also don't see how it is predatory. To me your argument just sounds like they hurt your feelings because you have to buy a race, so now you want to whine about and rally people to your rather absurd cause. And what about the people who have already bought it? They would have to refund many people's money and that would take a lot of time. Your argument means ZOS loses money and the people who bought it spent their money for nothing.
