This poll is for those who have previously subscribed to ESO+ and have unsubscribed. Do you notice the lack of the 10% experience bonuses?

    The only thing that I actually notice is the reduced research times, which is very nice IMO, but I don't notice the other stuff at all. I imagine the XP boost would be nice if I were actually in the process of leveling something up.

    I am leveling up few alts. They are now VR4, and i haven't noticed any significant difference. I do the Cadwell quests, few optionals, public dungeons, WB and dolmens. Those seem to give me 70-80% of level and i grind the rest. I made two levels post-sub and it's pretty much same as usual.

    I stopped caring about levels when the Champion System was implemented. There's no way I'd pay real money for an xp boost or fake currency to buy digital crap with. New content on the other hand.....

    An xp boost is one thing that will always stop me subscribing, I out level areas far to quick without one.

    I'm far more likely to resub if it included an xp reduction.

    Since i cancelled my sub... no.

    Got a few crowns left. I only PvP so pets i cannot use. Got a few costumes but don't need/want others. A mount is a mount. Stats are same and i enjoy my free tiger. Other stuff not usefull.

    Tried to play my alt and did not notice any difference with 10% xp boost. I had rings of mara on my main but since i played more then my wife and got better stat rings i didn't use mara also. So 10% is nothing.

    There is NOTHING that justifice subbing for me. I play for free now and it even feels better when the lag kicks in. You just think.. thank the divines i don't pay for this.

    Nope, ESO Plus is an utter debacle with no merit at all IMO, and other game models on other genres like Premium on the Battlefield games nail it, access to all upcoming DLC, priority queuing and constant item drops.

    I played since early beta, subbed till relatively recently, so many things in the game that is amazing, and so many things that are still horrendous.

    Not paying anymore money till age old issues are sorted.

    You got a year out of me and my funds Zeni, and so many great things has happened in the game that I love, but still, the age old LIE of the PvP that was promised, still fails to deliver.

    Lol, even Dice who does the Battlefield games cannot get 200 vs 200 peeps fighting it out, and no offence, their engine is way way more advanced than yours, and use dedicated servers, to lessen load, and even they can`t do it, and the Battlefield games are amazing.

    And unlike Dice, whose games get better after a year, yours has got worse in some respects.

    Anyways slightly off topic, as the rant suggests.

    To wrap it up.

    Great game on so many levels, and I am a gamer who plays other genres of games, yet I keep playing ESO regularly, why, cos there are so many things about the game that pulls me back and I do love that.

    But myself and many others who have supported the game since beta, not to mention a firm supporter of the TES games, which led me here, and others who have joined the journey more recently.

    We all want the game to do well and get better

    You keep saying stuff along the lines of oh things are being worked on

    BLAH BLAH BLAH

    I go by results, not words, its been more than a year, and some issues that should have been sorted ages ago, are still ongoing with no end in sight.

    Bring game stability into play

    Sort PvP, (or stop stonewalling and LYING to us about it)

    Carefully optimised content

    Then you will get my money again, till then, nope.

    I haven't noticed a difference, and am withholding funding until ZoS makes the game good again. Of course, I only play a few hours a week now, so maybe there's something I'm missing (I doubt it).

    It's good to know I'm not the only one that feels like lacking the 10% buffs from ESO+ doesn't noticeably impact progression.

    Aye there is less gold but shrugs, if you do some PvP then you can get buffs to get you more gold from kills, so it balances out, and you experience other areas of the game.

    Well, my play style really is such that I never pay really close attention to my gold, xp, research gains... so the differences in those aspects of the game arent really apparent. I like hearing that our is apparent to some to though!

    Since I unsubbed last month I haven't really noticed the difference other than ESO+ missing from the character buffs. Research on the 9th trait always took a long time anyway, veteran leveling is so painfully slow 10% one way or the other is negligible, and it's still very easy to get over leveled for the area on non-veteran characters. I dont miss the gold either - what do I need more gold for when there's nothing new to spend it on?

    Your Auction Horse, (which I really hope they implement), will not be happy with you saying you do not pay really close attention to your gold.

    The utter heresy of that statement to the God of Commerce (your Auction Horse), will treat such statement as grounds for head on spike good sir!!!!

    Hehe kidding.

    But aye agreed on what ya said.

    I'm saving my money for x-pacs. I've never really been big on cosmetic items from a cash-shop, they're neat, but I want playable content, so I'm not staying subbed for a bonus alone. If ZOs puts out some expansion packs here in the near future I'll buy them up in a heartbeat though! I'm a sucker for that kind of stuff... just ask Funcom :)

    The only thing that I actually notice is the reduced research times, which is very nice IMO, but I don't notice the other stuff at all. I imagine the XP boost would be nice if I were actually in the process of leveling something up.

    I'm done with research, so I can't notice it anymore.
    I'm also done with leveling, so that goes too.

    What's the point of subscribing again? Access to the current DLC? :#

    With the DLC's not working with a sub like DCUO's goes (if u sub when its released or you sub anytime laer you get access to the DLC after your sub runs out) The ESO+ as it stands is a waste of Money

    I recently stopped my sub and the only thing I notice is I don't get as upset at the lack of new material, bug fixes, and customer service because I'm not giving them my money anymore. A full year of subbing was more than enough to *** me off when they told me I was just a beta tester for the console...
