    I almost never use the Imperial I paid for. So, I don't think others getting it for free would make me change my mind.

    Imperial is perfect tank class

    It's also one of few races you can have typical black skin tone.

    Maybe.
    The key for me is, that my criteria to play a race is purely aesthetic. So if it would have to be purchased, I would want a test creation prior to purchasing. I will never take the risk to pay blindly for a new race, not knowing before if I can create a toon I like or not. Once tested, if I can create a nice toon, then yes, I would pay for the race.
    If cost free, then it would be easier, because I could without second thought abandon the race if I can't create a toon I like.

    Edited: I edited several times, sorry for that, was busy and needed some time until I could wrote something acceptable. *blush

    I paid for the upgrade from the beginning, and have a stunningly beautiful Imperial character, so yes, absolutely. I like pretty characters, so I only play humans and elves... especially Bosmer in ESO, they're so small and cute! 😉

    I bought the imperial edition when the game launched, I don't think I have any imperial characters at the moment.

    Nope. I’ve never wanted to make one. My DK tank is a Nord.

    More humans so... no. Sure they are good for the balance, but true fantasy comes with other races. We're humans in rl enough (and I only say this because most people playing human characters do not differ from their rl selves even in rp) . So - double no. If you truly wish to promote fantasy you should focus on other than human races ( and by that I do not mean the khajit. We've had quite enough cats as it is already). But to not missunderstand my comment, I'd choose a khajit over an imperial any day - and that's saying something from somone with no interest in the khajiti people either. I admire cats - from a distance.

    I mean If you truly wish to promote fantasy you'd put effort into making everything work and that means the humans and what makes them stand out in a fantasy world instead of boring humans, elves lizard people and cat people that have been done to death.

    I always played Imperials in the Elder Scrolls games (Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim).
    When I started playing ESO in 2016 I was a bit irritated that I had to make a character I didn't want to play so I could get into the game and use the crown store to buy the Imperial edition. But I bought crowns, logged in, bought the package, logged out.
    And then I finally started playing ESO - with an Imperial. He's my main character until today. The other two I have I only play very rarely, they are a Khajiit and... an Imperial.

    So of course I'd still use the Imperial race (and the Imperial mount, and the Imperial style) if they were free. ;) And I'd be happy to see other players receive it all without having to pay for it.

    Bought Imperial Edition ages ago. Used mount for many years. None of my 19 characters is Imperial.
