To be honest horses are not that important. With the ability to port to guild mates/group members and just plain running it really is all the transportation you will need especially just starting out. By the time you hit mid level 20's you should have plenty of extra cash if you wanted to buy one.

Tried running across Cyrodiil, have you?

I got my first horse at level 13, because I didn't buy anything and sold everything I get and grinded for 19 hours to get 17.3k septims.
Now it looks like the horse will cost 10k. ZoS though should either keep it at 17.3k or lower the rest of the horses. 42k for a 15 capacity mount is really far fetching, just like 42k is far fetching for a speed horse. The only one worth it in my head is the Stamina horse, because you can buy inventory slots for less then 10k and get over 15 slots.
But yeah, no-one is going to save up for horses anymore, not now that the first one is so dirt cheap and now with the crown store where you can buy a horse for $10 USD, and 7 Euro.
Why do you feel the need to even suggest it may be a 'joke' (or did you really mean 'troll')?NewBlacksmurf wrote: »Not sure if this is a joke or a serious post.

Serious.

Yeah, post B2P it has a lot less merit. The cheap horse is getting knocked down to 10k, which isn't a hard mark to hit now. And that's an account wide unlock. So, once you get one character to around level 7 or 8, you should be covered.
A player can buy a horse for a whopping 14,000 gold. For a player just starting out, that’s pretty daunting. While, yes, a player can buy a horse from the Cash shop for $15, there really should be another option for players.
I propose there be a horse rental option where a player can rent a horse for 500 gold for 24 hours. This would mean allow those that don’t have the gold available to buy a horse to rent one for a considerably lower price, even though a player who rents a horse every day for 30 days would spend the amount it would cost to buy a horse.
The horse should be able to be rented from the stables. The rental horse shouldn’t have any abilities to upgrade and a player should be given the option to “re-rent” the horse when their rental is up, no matter where they are. This should be a pop-up that gives the option to re-rent the horse. If the player chooses “no” they must revisit a stable to rent the horse again. If they do not have the coin when their rental expires, they can only select “no”. Having the pop-up in this instance will simply let the player know their rental is up, even if they can’t afford to extend the rental period.
Oh, and ideally… the “rental horse” should be a donkey…
I have no idea how someone could afford a horse by level 12. Maybe my crafting ways of deconstructing instead of censoring was at fault?
