    I would hope not crown store bags, but that just from my weary standing in where purchases like those will lead down the future. I hate saying this but I'll drop eso immediately if it sells armors/weapons/the like through crown store because that is not an ES game and to me the most important letters in eso are the first 2. Everyone is different tho, but for me that's the breaking point, and I just don't want us to get close to the sun, with crown purchases.

    I think it's fine the way it is now, it's not gonna be a daily big seller but guess what? None of the past ES games had anything like that and that's probably the best game series I've ever picked up. Played skyrim til June 9th 2015 since release, only other game where I've done that was oblivion and morrowind. I'm just saying that due to past sales and future sells projected, they shouldn't need to worry about restocking crown store. Mounts are only character not account bound right? So if a person had lioness mount on 3 characters that's like &45-50 (with tax) and eso + is only $15/mo, so just 1 person buying 3 lioness mounts for each of their faction toons is more than a new subscriber every month. They're making good money as it stands right now from all the mounts and pets I've seen, no need to push their luck

    And frankly I don't really see an issue with bag space I got 80 slots but really only needed the 10 extra and even then I didn't really need, and I didn't mind tossing some gold for the bag. But when I unload I try to get it around 35-40 and that'll keep me good until like 3-4 hours of straight farming/questing pretty much until I reach another city.

    Ah, that's actually a big relief lol, I thought I saw or heard someone say they were character bound. I know at the least tho that the motifs are character bound tho. Guess zen tossed everyone 500 crowns at release? Idk, just know I myself didn't buy them but spent those 500 on a pact style so my khajiit and dunmer could makes elven weapons, used on khajiit and was the end of that motif sadly.

    So just replace lioness mount with purple motifs (x

    So manage your inventory better.
    Don't horde what you don't need.
    Head back into town every so often to deconstruct and bank things.
    Buy more backpacks.
    Don't horde.
    Destroy items you don't need and/or can't sell for a profit.
    Don't be a horder.

    Yeah, I know technically they are... but I just can't bring myself to do it that way. It feels like cheating (and yes, I know being able to summon and dismiss a horse or whatever isn't realistic, but there you are).

    So the first of my characters to unlock or buy a mount gets it. After all, now that the Imperial horse is in 'collections' you can only have one name for it - so from my perspective, my one altmer still has 'Mundus', but Acorn, Ghost, Windracer and Shadow all dissapeared.
    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...

    No, because the horse only increases your personal inventory, and you can buy those for a tiny bit of in-game gold. Increasing your personal inventory space by 10 or even 60 slots isn't going to solve a players inventory issues, it's just going to delay them having to go back and deal with it.

    I'm to the point where I'm training my characters riding skills for storage, because I've finished the other two stats. I never saw the extra horse storage as a priority, not when this game offers you so much space through other means(upgrading alts bags & guild banks).

    You can upgrade your storage with the horse, you can use crowns to do it instantly, but are you really going to enjoy that slight delay as much as a unique mount or pet? The only time I would say horse training is a priority, is if you just want to PVP all day long and you're just starting out, then you should train speed and stamina, nobody should ever train storage with crowns, unless you just want to donate money to ZOS. Just my opinion on that.

    If your desperate, buy 60 bag upgrades for your horse from the crown store, so you'll have 140 in inv, 80 in bank, = 220 + say 90 items in guild stores + just 1 alt? = 370...

    Hey there, @GoodFella146 , I wanna suggest a couple things.

    First off, get a mount and then visit a stablemaster every day. Why? Simple...he offers 1 inventory slot for 250 gold, which means that 10 slots cost 2500 gold, which is way cheaper than the third bag upgrade (5,900 last I checked). You can have a max of 60, so assuming you start with 60 slots, and you upgrade a character solely through mount upgrade inventory slots, you can have 120 slots for 15000 gold, or 250 gold a day. And 250 gold is nothing. Just go to delves and loot stuff and sell them. In literally half a delve run, I can collect more than 250 gold.

    And before you ask "Mounts are so expensive", there is a mount available for only 10,000 gold. So 25000 gold over 60 days gets you a mount (boring mount, but still a mount) and 120 bag slots. 120, even if you buy no backpack upgrades.

    And bear in mind that there is an additional way to get more money if you're on Ebonheart Pact. Go to Bleakrock after Covenant invades Bleakrock Village, then get into the house closest to the dock, go into crouch mode and pick up items that have either 30 gold sell value, 100 gold sell value, or 250 gold sell value. Then go to Captain Rana's office and do the same thing. Even with only 50 things you can sell to a fence, I'm reasonably certain I can get 250 gold in only 2 runs, assuming I have only 3 inventory slots.

    And if you're looking for even more money, go hunting for aspect runes. The Denata's sell for around 100 gold, the Rekuta's sell for 500 gold, and the Kuta's go for 4.5K, otherwise known as 4,500.

    I can literally lists dozens of other things here, but this post is getting long so I'll leave it at that.
    If you can't handle the heat...stay out of the kitchen!

    I've only been playing for about 2 weeks now. I'm currently leveling 3 professions, am not in any active trading guilds and have only bought the first 2 bag upgrades and 2 bank upgrades. I own a horse and still have a respectable amount of gold left over to purchase more bag space. After my inventory gets full after about an hour of questing, I'll just head on over to the nearest town, sell off the ornate gear I've collected (I always find some) for the much needed gold, I'll then work on refining if I need to, followed by deconning all the stuff I don't need to research and finally finishing my errand by dropping all my crafting mats in the bank. It takes about 5 mins to do this.

    I don't complain because it's part of the game, and breaks up the monotony of running around doing menial jobs for the citizens of tamriel. If you don't consider it a burden, and actually take a little bit of a rp attitude into account, then it feels less like a chore and more like a pit stop on your journey to becoming a hero.

    In addition, more times than not, if I run out of inventory space in the wild and there's something I just have to pick up, then I'll discard a useless white item that probably won't get me anything upon decon. Lord knows I pick up plenty of those. I have to agree with others on this thread. You don't have to grab everything. You don't have to do everything. I understand some people have OCD or other issues, but it'll be less of a pain if you just play and don't fret over the little things.

    It's not trolling it's a frustration post. I can't fill a soul gem because my inventory is full. I can't change weapons because my inventory is full. I can't finish the quest because my inventory is full. I can't explore/loot this area here and instead must head back to town because my inventory is full.

    I can't destroy a bunch of items because I need to scrounge up thousands in coin just to buy a measly 10 bank slots. I can't discard/use/sell every crafting item otherwise I may not be able to fill a requisition, which is huge at this stage of the game.

    This is really my only complaint about the game. Everything else has been absolutely great (well except the voice chat BS but this is far more annoying). Why is it with games lately we are always massively shorted on inventory space?

    I shouldn't have to spend 10 gold sending a piece of mail to my friend titled "Return" so that may rent 6 inventory slots. I shouldn't have to create another character to store 60 more items, only to have to deal with load times and traveling to a bank the second I need something. I shouldn't have to equip two daggers instead of my staff to gain an inventory slots just to be able to finish a quest.

    It's all very annoying. It feels like storage issues is becoming a trend in gaming lately. I can't be the only one concerned/annoyed by this.

    We have been complaining about this for over a year now. At least now you can spend 10 real dollars to upgrade your mount and gain 10 slots. Ah P2W....

    It amazes me how some people have inventory problems, while others don't. Perhaps this then, is not so much of a game issue, but a personal issue. When I first started the game I reached max inventory while questing, so I went to the bag merchant and upgraded, I also upgraded my bank space... both of which the initial purchase is fairly cheap. What I learned along the way is that there is absolutely NO REASON to keep everything, and I frequently destroy things that have ZERO value even if I could eventually sell them in a Trade Guild, I still don't even bother.

    The solution is to join multiple Trade Guilds, and at each major city find your bank and sell things through the Trade Store. Also, decon everything you aren't planning to research, and only worry about selling Mats... don't try to sell useless leveling gear through the Trade Store; you can also sell gear to regular Merchants if you don't want to decon or if you don't belong to a Trade Guild. Currently, I run three Crafts and maintain all my crafting materials in the bank- which I have expanded to 80 slots, my character has 70 slots and I have yet to run out of space anymore.

    As others have said, proper inventory management is the key, and not being a hoarder... ESO is NOT hoarder friendly.

    I belong to one trade guild, used to belong to three. However, needing to do so is just silly. I belong to a trade guild, a PvP guild and 3 roleplay guilds. Some people like to belong to PvE guilds that focus on end game like trials, etc. We shouldn't need to belong to multiple trade guilds at all. Also, let's talk about how poor our storage design really is in this game. A "list?" Really? When it should darn well be a grid where I can sort things to where I can find them with ease? And what about trophies and disguises? They STILL haven't managed to put them in the collections tab where they belong so...they take up precious space in my inventory. Inventory space may not be an issue for everyone but the fact that it IS for (I'm guessing) at least half of the player base IS a problem and ZoS needs to fix it.

    It seems like a simple fix, just provide more tiers to purchase space upgrades following the same costs they already have established. Those of us who want to keep all the things can pay a hefty price to do which will never affect those who manage just fine so they won't be able to complain they're forced to pay for something they don't want.

    I doubt they ever will, what is more likely is they'll eventually put inventory space up for sale on the crown store. It seems anymore the game has become a game of pin the tail on the monetization.

    To the OP, I would recommend starting your own guild with some mates enough to open up the guild bank and make it a catch all spot for the mats you want on hand but there is little to no value keeping them in your personal vault. All we have to comment on are the workarounds as the issue has already been brought up to and acknowledged by the devs.

    I hate the inventory management mini-game.

    I have much less trouble now than I used to, but it's been a long, tedious road to get some relief, and there's still a long, long way to go. I still only have half the max bank slots, but most of the characters I play have at least 3 backpack upgrades, and some have almost full mount carry cap upgrades. Others have really just begun, but all have full speed upgrades.

    Other things that help tremendously are Addons. Bank Manager Revived is a God send. I'd go crazy without it. I also now only keep and transfer gear that I need for research, and sell anything else which that particular character doesn't break down.

    Religiously feeding horses every day has helped a great deal, but it also feels it will be quite some time until I can start increasing my bank again. I know eventually, inventory issues will be a like that bad milk that you try to forget, so I continue to press on. Stick with it- it slowly (very slowly) gets easier over time.

    One thing I might do different if I had it to do over again- train carry cap before speed.
