What's the point of plus and the crown store?
Question is in the title, but I ask because I am curious why a game would include things that could possibly create divisions between players. It seems similar to a class system where some can just buy what they want while others have to work hard for even the little things. Is this a common mmo design? Do I just not see the upside?
I'm new to mmos and it doesn't seem elder scrollsy to let people buy an in-game horse with real world money.
