if the devs want our money the only way to set them straight is to not buy this skinned crap that zynga created and ask for actual new content to play. They haven't put a new encounter/item in the game for 6+ months. They have thouroughly broke pvp and created a bevvy of new bugs. stop the insanity. demand a real game.

    Yep, I am waiting for DLC and will keep my crowns until something useful content-wise will come up.

    If you want to game to continue, you should buy the "crown crap". If you don't, then don't play it and bugger off.

    they are a business.

    If they can sell a pile of crap and make the same $$ as when they created dungeons, bosses, environments to explore, and challenges to face, they will continue to.

    If players boycotted the store they'd be forced to revisit their DLC timetable and think about actually pushing out the imperial city, but do they want to tackle real programming, or find out how many different ways they can re-skin cats?

    They only do it, because it sells. If no one bought it, they wouldn't do it.

    Good luck convincing everyone to stop buying stuff. Let me know how it goes.

    +1 LOL for the Zynga comment.

    I'm on your team ;) Even if they were releasing monthly DLCs, I still wouldn't buy pets on principle. I cant see how a game already suffering lag issues can be helped by forcing the servers to create additional, completely unnecessary visuals.

    To top it off, if I remember correctly they said on live or in a post that they are looking at skills and animations that may be contributing to the lag :| Down with the fluff and leave our toons alone! (my 2 cents only ofc)
    If options weren't necessary, and everyone played the same way, no one would use addons. Fix the UI!

    I can agree with the sentiment, I too want real content over fluff, but i'll still buy something from the crown store if I want it. Other game makers have managed to release content with fluff. I'm hoping ZoS can too.

    I'm happy to stay subbed, promote their game with word of mouth and support them when they communicate that they are working to make the game balanced and perform well.

    I'd even pay a larger price (30-49.99) for a content update that lasted a year or if i saw the frontload of our spending (imperial edition, a year of subs, pre orders) result in rolling content.

    They broke promise 1 hard, and that leave the onus on them to indicate they plan to actually expand the mmo beyond aestetics.
