Kraven✭✭✭✭✭Matt Firor, "Charging a flat monthly (or subscription) fee means that we will offer players the game we set out to make, and the one that fans want to play. Going with any other model meant that we would have to make sacrifices and changes we weren’t willing to make.”
"The Elder Scrolls Online was designed and developed to be a premium experience: hundreds of hours of gameplay, tons of depth and features, professional customer support – and a commitment to have ongoing content at regular intervals after launch. This type of experience is best paired with a one-time fee per month, as opposed to many smaller payments that would probably add up to more than $14.99/month any way."
Paul D. Sage: "No, we don’t have any plans that I am aware of to change it in the future. You know the business model is what the business model is and it allows us to deliver high level content on regular basis right now. So there are no plans that I am aware of."
Believe the smoke they're blowing still? They're both so full of *** their breath stinks.
Why spend cash on pots if gold bought player made ones are better? Just buy the gold, because you know that's happening right? So those sets that are going for 500k+ goes to...Pockets. Nope not P2W at all...

jcasini222ub17_ESO✭✭✭✭If your a subscriber (the "ESO Plus" new moniker for sub), to my understanding, no you would not need to pay for Wrothgar. It would just be another update for an ESO plus member.0

✭✭✭✭✭So do i have to buy wrothgar now ? I heard they were selling zones in packs.
If you drop your subscription, you will have to buy Wrothgar. If you keep paying the monthly subscription, all DLC/Updates such as Wrothgar will be included. So if you are a purely solo player who is only interested in Wrothgar, might be cheapest to drop sub and just buy Wrothgar when it comes out. If you play a lot of different content in game and think most future updates will be of interest, probably cheaper in long run to keep subscription.0 -

I didn't catch the exact specifics on that. I don't know an exact sub date to get it. They just said "Those who have been with us since the beginning".0 -
jcasini222ub17_ESO✭✭✭✭It seemed they were pretty sure update 6 would hit PTS next week. They also said things bought with crowns stay on that character or account, can't remember which.
So if i purchase soul gems through the crown store I would not be able to then sell them cyro. I would be the only person able to use them. At least that is what i have gotten. Same goes with potions.0 -
Jimm_ay✭✭✭Soo--15 a month and we get free dlc...how fast do you think DLC will come out? I bought the imperial ed for 99 + 15 a month so 9 months of that - about 245 bucks I have paid to play this game...say they do 4 dlc a year and charge 19.99 for it..that is 80 bucks a year....yeah...they milked the cow till it fell over and set the barn on fire....0

LIES. Already Soul Gems, XP Boosts, Gold Boosts.There will be no pay-to-win items in the store
#CosmeticOnlyOrByeEdited by briandivisionb16_ESO on January 21, 2015 6:10PMIf your group is bigger than 6 members gain 75% damage reduction.
Write this on the back of your box and see how many sales you get!
You won't get any new PvP players until this archaic AoE crap is fixed.
I for one won't resub until:
1.) You fix lag.
2.) You remove AOE caps we voted against.
3.) 12 months have passed (this is how long we've waited for you to 'get with it')[/b]1 -

Kevingway✭✭✭Need a few questions clarified.
I was a beta player. Do I get this "special reward," or is it reserved for those who have had a recurring 12-month subscription? The highlight is a little vague.
Is this special reward the same for both beta players and 12-month subscribers, if beta players are entitled to something as well?
Do we know what skills are available in the Criminal line, and is there an Enforcer skill line?
Do we know the price range of the "area packs?" (Dear lord, I hate when they name things as "Packs")
Will everything be purchased with Crowns, or will area packs and other content be purchased with actual money? (Yes, I know Crowns cost real money... this is a specific question).
Thanks, if these were answered during the stream! I had to watch it with the sound turned off.
EDIT: MOST IMPORTANT question from me--will there be cash shop popups ingame? How is the cash shop accessed ingame?Edited by Kevingway on January 21, 2015 6:14PM0 -
