Anyone else sick of 25$ mounts?

Trublz✭✭✭ZOS is sick of them too, thus the crown crates. If you thought 25$ was bad...
I think $25 is acceptable. Anything higher would be rediculous imo. Which is why I didn't buy the dro senche, but now wish I did.
Either way nothing will compare to the future of mounts with crown crates. $100 or more for a new mount...GTFOCP531 Air-eez Redguard DK DPS

The way the free to play model works is not, as we'd like to imagine, by having lots of folks buying the occasional, reasonably priced trinket that shows off your dark elf gal's prefect cleavage or a morph for your Khajiit that gives him eerie blue hair and glowing eyes. Nope.
Free to play is built on the whims and fancies of whales. It's a small - often extremely small - percentage of people paying substantial sums regularly that make free to play games (somewhat) free to play.
None of that matters though. What matters is that these things have value to THEM....they like their banker, their merchant, their fire breathing horse and an online game that makes such things possible. Or, as this fellow put it rather more elegantly than I....
People can spend their hard earned money however they wish, and they can spend their expendable income however they want to. I've only personally gotten one crown store mount (wolf) but that was out of my monthly crown allotment for my sub.
But if people wanna spend £25 on a mount, it's absolutely their porogative to do so.

✭✭✭✭✭Did a new mount get released today? Thought the horse was later this month?
I'm one of those fools, don't wanna miss something.
I imagine OP is speaking of the alliance mounts that were released last week. They are the first not-limited mounts to be priced the same as limited recolor ones (2500 Crowns). Granted, they have that well-designed armor (that doesn't change regardless of riding skill upgrades) and the alliance-locked look gimmick, but they don't have new animations so I don't really agree with the price.
But I am in no place to judge people who decide to buy it, of course. I did pay 2500 Crowns for a mount before (the Clouded Senche) and would gladly do it again for another mount that fits one of my characters.
On a side note, the Dominion one is the only horse of that color in the game, which is a shame because it is the coat color Frost has in Skyrim, which is also my favourite coat color for horses. I would like to see a version of it with white markings and mane and without the armor in the store, it was how I expected the Palomino horse to be when it was announced, before we saw pics.Edited by Abeille on October 12, 2016 4:47PMJust so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.
Meet my characters:Command: Do the thing.
Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.0 -

Wow!!! Welcome to life people... Stuff you want costs money and that's how life works... Now with that said... Let me tell you I felt really stupid the first time I spent money on an online game, because basically you're buying 1's and 0's and most online game money seems way over priced... Then I realized if I take my family to the movies. We spend $50 or $60 bucks for 2 hours of entertainment... Go out to a restaurant, usually once a week, and we could easily spend $60 to $100 for 2 hours of family time and a good meal. So far any money I have spent on ESO has given me, my wife, my sister and one of my daughters 100's of hours of fun and entertainment. All for $60 a month sub fee's Now... That's a bargain in my book.
Yes, it would be awesome to have cool mounts for a cheaper price, but they are in business to make money and being a small business owner my self I understand that concept. You may not agree with it, but that's the way it is.2 -

I could turn that argument around and say that people who complain so much about the game having a crown store are jealous that they can't/won't buy exclusive items and therefore want everyone to be on an equal level because they can't stand anyone being or appearing to be better than themselves

I'm sure it costs one hell of a lot more than $200-300 worth of salary to create these mounts. Concept art, animation, sound, texturing and testing

It's pretty simple. Don't buy them if you don't like the cost.

Almost every post I see, and every even moderately wealthy person I have ever known seems to only see less fortunate people as "lazy, stupid, degenerate, worthless, whiny, useless bums."
I suppose it gives them a false sense of security, as if the series of unfortunate circumstances that led to these people being in less fortunate financial circumstances could NEVER possibly happen to THEM (where have I heard THAT before), despite 7 in 10 Americans having less than $1000 in savings.

I'm trying to figure out the justification of crating a thread complaining about the price of mounts.
You even said they're just cosmetic so there is zero reason to be concerned about their price.
Buy a mount in game and have use of it across all your characters and save $25. problem solved.
Ofc, of you really want that shines new mount in the store you will like pony up the cash and enjoy supporting Zos's endeavors.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭Yes, it's better to put $50 into a long-term safer investment than into a video game cash shop.
But if your investments are doing well, I don't see the issue in splurging a little. The mount will last quite a bit longer than a $50 bottle of Jack, and is far less of a life decision than a $50 tattoo.

✭✭✭✭✭I'd certainly be more inclined to buy more of the mounts (and other cosmetics) if they weren't so expensive.
I did buy the clouded senche-leopard but that was an exception. Clouded leopards are my favourite big cats and it's rare to see them in a game (even rarer to see them done well) so I really wanted that one. Even then I decided in advance I would not pay more than £12 for it. Fortunately it cost £10.90.
There are others I like, but I don't think they're worth what ZOS is charging. I keep looking at the guar and the wolf mount in particular and thinking I like them, but not quite enough to justify the price.
It's not that I can't afford it, I can. But there's a lot of things I could choose to spend my money on, so it comes down to which one/s I think are worth the price. I could buy a £15 mount, or I could buy 3 £5 books or 1 CD or lunch for me and my husband in a cafe, or 3 £5 cosmetics...PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

Funny you think you can tell how a person was raised for how much they spend on cosmetic items in a game.
