    Yep, an Orc Sorc is pretty worthless without the 10% movement speed buff they took away so long ago.
    I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.

    And yes, I would also pay 2k crowns to make that Orc a Templar instead of a Sorc.

    I think it would be better to make your Orc Sorc an Altmer Sorc, but that's just me.

    You're pretty close to making an imaginary 1000$ ZOS. Do you know how many cheeseburgers that is? Like 200. Or 100 if you're at a fine dining establishment. Maybe 80 cheeseburgers if it's the place you can get like a spicy aioli with a fried egg, bacon, avocado, even some pork belly on that [snip]! God damn I'm hungry.

    How much in game gold do you want to bet me that they are in the crown store in 6 months (I'm NA server)? I just hope they get here sooner. Magicka Khajit is tired of being 10% less effective than a Magicka Altmer.

    No.

    Even with suspension of disbelief, even with a fantasy world I see no justification for this. It cheapens the game.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Race means nothing really. Class is the hard line that should not be crossed. I foresee ZOS adding this some day as the reason for choosing a race are bound to passives that affect combat those passives constantly change (without patch notes evidently). Race change should be subject to race alliance choice restrictions depending on the account but not change faction of course.

    The only justification for not allowing it is to nerf all passives into non-combat themes bonuses which may also be a route ZOS is thinking about. As it stands though racial passives and their continued impact on place choice and frustrations when changed is an issue ZOS cannot ignore.

    I voted yes, because it is not my place to tell other what they can or shouldn't do.

    If people want a race change, my opinion should not be what stops that.
    This is one of these subjects that come and go all the time...
    I've stated my opinion against it several times already but since this is the first thread approaching a different possibility (crown store), I'll agree this time.

    I think Race change should cost 10,000 crowns 'cause if we're allowing this crap, at least it should greatly boost ZOS income.


    This is what I meant. How does his/her opinion matter enough to get to alter the actions of others? It doesn't

    ZeniMax/Developers get to decide. People think they are far more special then they are.

    No, BUT....

    I would spend 2000 crowns on a CLASS change! I'm surprised people are asking for race changes when the nerfs to certain classes have been so much more dramatic.

    Then you obviously weren't impacted by the stealth racial passive changes. To some those changes had equal impact. Read my post above to understand why race choice is an issue and why ZOS will always have issues with it. If this continues players will always have to right to ask for this race change option because the reason they had to choose the race vanished when the game clearly was designed with the inclusion of race for min/maxing.

    You still play the same faction and you still play the same class if the race changes. This is not a real impact on anyone else or faction balance. As I said, ZOS can either remove the reasons behind why players feel pissed over such stealth changes against the very reason why they chose a race or they can remove these reasons entirely. They simply cannot ignore the degree of impact race choice has on the game in it's current state.

    LOL.. this.

    It's crazy. The very first day the crown store opened there were already people making threads complaining there was nothing to buy. Sooo you're basically complaining that you're saving real cash. People didn't want the $15/month sub, yet are more then willing to just throw money at the crown store because... ?

    Would definitely want there to be a cooldown period, but yes, would love to have race change.

    Especially since my (now stamina build) Dunmer gets zero benefit from flame talent...why is it only spell damage??? (But it is apparently bugged again anyway, so oh well). AND got a nerf to fire resist as well, there is really only one Dunmer passive that is useful for me, which is pretty disappointing. I would love to change my race at this point.

    Wouldn't mind having a few more Imperials. Slot Structured Entropy IV, eat health + stam food and you'll know what its like to be an unbuffed member of the master race.

    Than again, I'm not sure how much money ZoS would actually make by selling this service. Every race change is also someone not re-rolling. Re-rollers might end up spending a lot more than 2k crowns in the future :expressionless:

    Lore has nothing to do w/ a mechanical, out of game change of race. That's like saying you can't use the Crown store because lore. <.<

    PS) Yes, Argonians did have their only great passive nerfed on top of having the way potions work in-game changed entirely as well, making the so-so passive that it was replaced w/ pretty terrible overall.

    That's pretty much the only reason I'd like a race change for my VR Argonian that was changed for me (this is not the race I chose anymore) after a year of playing and investing in her.
