How can you spend 1300 on this game?

I mean like, what is there to actually buy that costs that much?

I've spent the cost of three DLC's, but that came in the form of subbing to get the most of the money. I won't sub again until two months months dark brotherhood now.

I'm guessing wedding dresses.....

Bout $400 here

smacx250 · March 2016

$400. One account subbed monthly since PC release (less 60 days I won in a guild auction). Two other accounts purchased on sale. I'm running around $.25/hr played (not counting the two accounts family members play on).

Shogunami · March 2016

Spent about $220 since January. Not regretting a single dollar

And we're just getting started!

squeakylump · March 2016

It seems clearly that those big spenders have no patience and wish to immediately upgrade everything, I have only purchased the game and the 2 dlc, you got the bear mount as an alternative with wrothgar which is great and the bear cub too. Patience is a virtue my mount is maxed out with not a penny spent my bank is almost maxed with not a penny spent and I'm a very happy bunny after seeing how much has been blown to achieve what I have for free

crislevin · March 2016

$300.

$80 for original purchase, roughly one year of sub, $50 for recent DLCs.

Skinless_Jerk · March 2016

£195 + 2 DLC = £225 give or take a few £'s since console release, .. Just felt like someone slapped me in the face with a training maelstrom maul !! Haha

Slurg · March 2016

Just under $300 total (from prerelease two years ago to now.) I have a spare 5500 crown pack that I bought just because it was on sale so I'm set for a little while.

As mad as I was when they switched the payment model after the first year, it has saved me over $60 so far and based on some of the responses here, they seem to be more than making that up from other players. Sounds like it was a good business decision.

Lysette · March 2016

Well, this basically shows, their business model works and this game will be around for a long time, as long as we can enjoy the game and are not plagued with too many bugs and performance issues.

I think ESO is fairly cheap compared to some of the other MMO's.

I was reading a topic named "Cash Shop Hero's" on another gaming forum. Someone spent like $300 dollars in 30 days on a different MMO.

Millerman34n · March 2016

Over 1000 $ with sub from launch, and I get no pvp content I lag like a *** in pvp and I get the most shirt bandaid fixes ever ex shield breaker!

those free2play are the worst - their pay2win shops with RNG item boxes cash in lots and lots of money from whales and collectors. And 300 dollars is like nothing, I have seen people spending 10 times that in Archeage, buying lots and lots of RNG boxes just to have a tiny chance to get a specific item - it's insane.

tunepunk · March 2016

* Bought the game.
* Around 1 year subscription until they made it optional.
* 1 DLC (Orsinium)

IC and Thieves guild does not really appeal to me.

TequilaFire · March 2016

Way too much.
I have 3 PS4 users and a PC user in the house that play TU.

thessera · March 2016

$41

Benie · March 2016

-The game was $15 on Green Man Gaming (PC Download).
-I had to buy the 750 crowns package to have enough to buy a standard horse for 900 crowns (because as a Level 5... getting a horse for 10k gold is very possible according to ZoS Logic).
-Decided to get the $15/mo ESO+ thing.
-Bought the max crown (5500) offer when it was cheap (about $24).

Round it all up... $61.97.

Danikat · March 2016

£70.38

£12 for the original game, £20 for the Imperial Edition upgrade, and 2 5,500 crown packs (one half price).

I still have about 7,000 crowns left so it's going to be a while before I spend any more.

People even do this in Guild Wars 2 where all it'll get you is a skin.

Lenikus · March 2016

... More than I'd feel comfortable telling someone.

Lightninvash · March 2016

somewhere between 350-500 though I purchased 2 games and working on content for 2 separate consoles one being for my fiancé. so it isn't so bad for playing the game for about 9 months.

Mashille · March 2016

*Slowly backs out the door...

*Runs home and hides in cardboard box.

captainwolfos · March 2016

None, because I work in £s

iam_slickone · March 2016

Bought the game for $20, just today bought 8.5k crown to buy all 3 dlcs (I just finished cadwels gold) so I spent about $65

ContraTempo · March 2016

Oh, well if we are counting hardware and related software I'm well over $3k US.

What I have sent to ZoS is just a few hundred (game + sub + a few crowns).

But my other hobbies are swordfighting and horseback riding so this is still my cheapest hobby by far. :-)

This is how much I spent and been playing for almost a year.

$80 for the imperial edition when the game was released on PC.

And probably more than $1000 in booze while playing ...

nimander99 · March 2016

$1037.78

Edit: Forgot about two 60 day passes I bought from Game Stop soooo $1157.78

Zerok · March 2016

Base game: $CA70
5,500 crown packs #1 (discounted): $CA30
5,500 crown packs #2 (discounted): $CA30

TOTAL: CA$130

With the 11,000 crown packs, I was able to purchase the 3 DLCs, Imperial edition and Adventure pack.

IrishGirlGamer · March 2016

Cost of the Imperial Edition in May, 2014: $79.99
Monthly subs since then ($15.99 x 21 months): $335.79

Total: $415.78

And actually that's probably a bit high since I buy monthly subs three months at a time.

Wow ... $1,300 seems high. I used my crowns from my sub to pay for the DLCs and I still have a lot of crowns left that I'm not spending.

Skayaq · March 2016

about $200, $90 for phys imperial edition, 3 months sub and 2 5500 crown packs at half price.

theher0not · March 2016

I think somewere about 100 euro+ Game (I don't own Imperial edition)

* Adventure pack (Wish I didn't. I only bought it so I could play khajiit in EP and DC since I didn't know silver and gold existed)
* Nightmare steed
* Cloud-spotted senche
* a couple costumes (for about 2,5k crowns in total)
* IC
* Orsi and TG (when during the crownsale after TG release, I bought 5k crowns for 20 euro)
* mount speed books during the sale for the crowns I had left after DLCs

Reevster · March 2016

$70 on game

Probably like $130 on subbing, took a year off and didn't play.

Didn't buy any crowns yet other then whats comes with subbing.

Many hours of cheap entertainment if you ask me.

I wish my entertainment cost for other things were this cheap.
