    I'm assuming you will have to pay or be an ESO+ subscriber, since it is considered DLC. Now that the game is B2P, with no required monthly subscription, all DLC will have a cost involved.

    You will have to pay with crowns, yes. ZOS can't add new gameplay for nothing.

    It wont be free, most if not all dlc will be paid. Perhaps dark brotherhood and thieves guild will be free or at least certain aspects of the dlc but only time will tell

    Really? The game no longer requires a subscription fee, and you claim greed? I'll admit that most of the Crown Store items are overpriced, but they're just fluff anyway. Actual game content should be paid for in some manner. Sheesh!

    Lol. They need money to keep the servers online. Those things aren't cheap to run. If anything, it's greedy to expect the product of their work for free.

    You already have the game you paid for, the money they get from orsinium will pay for the development of the next dlc, the money from that will pay for the next one etc.. If they were to give the dlc's away for free how long before they run out of cash and the servers shut down??

    ZOS is in the business of making money, not giving to charity. If everything was free then there would be no more Elder Scrolls Online. What's greedy is feeling entitled to getting everything for free.

    You seem to post enough threads asking, somewhat valid questions. Everything starts off fine and then, boom. You're leaping off a cliff trying to drag everyone else along for the free fall ride down.

    When nearly every other company charges for DLC, it's OK. When ZOS does it, they're "Greedy".

    I never like assuming anything, but based on your opinion about paid DLCs being a greed scheme, maybe you don't have a steady flow of income? If that's the case, I can understand why you may dislike paid DLCs. It doesn't, however, make the company greedy.

    About the only thing I could complain about is the cost of the DLC. With most DLCs with other games being slapped with a price tag of $20-$25 is a bit much. I miss when those price tags were $10-$15.

    You just summed everything up in one sentence for everyone. So, really, it's not Zeni's fault, nor are they greedy. It's because you can't afford them and you took a game title for granted and it's meaning out of context. GG

    If hes getting £50 a day he can afford them, he has a higher income than me.

    Craglorn was free because everyone was paying a subscription to play the game. Hence there was no need to sell it for revenue. Now that there is no required sub, everything will be purchased separately. How it works im afraid.
