Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Should crown store bought manors count for the title?

    I'll keep my Stormproof title and throw on my Lord title for special occasions. Like when I come here to the forums and say "Hey!" How you doing on getting that gold and using your time trying to acquire that house?"

    You're not winning anything by having a stupid title below your name

    yeah you are, your winning the right to not be made fun of by people in common chat, and zone chat, and guild chat just because you were not able to earn the gold for that home.
    some people cant be here all the time because of real life jobs.
    we have a right to not have embarrassing titles and shamed publicly for lack of money.

    People wouldn't make fun of you if you didn't have the title because they have no way of knowing.. there will be many with the title that don't actually set it to active.. and I've never known people to be made fun of for lacking titles. You guys are silly.

    yeah they would, because people demand to see your titles all the time.
    especially in groups for dungeons.

    Weird I do dungeons every single day and have never had to link a title to be accepted.. I'm sure your housing title will help you with finding dungeon groups.. xD

    I just want to add here that they didn't put the manors behind all those quests because they want you to feel you earned it.. that's to shock people into seeing it takes a lot of questing and using the crown store instead. It's simply a sales tactic lol

    Unless i am mistaken "all those quests" are just the core content lines.

    Dont completing all those quests now provide you with achievements? Dys? Whatever?

    Like no one ever cheated to get to the top of a leaderboard! How about all those who used questionable tactics for the Emperor title? I don't even want the Lord or Count title, since manors are really no better than some of the next tier down houses. You're paying about 2 (or 6) million extra gold for those titles. For that amount, the manors should have been much more extravagant.

    It's core content but that's only if you care about dyes or questing or achievements. I've been in this game over two years. Never completed cadwells never completed the main story quest, etc.. and why? Because I don't have to and don't care to. There is no special end game gear awarded for it, nothing that improves min maxing.. literally doing all the game quests is a time sink other than grabbing skill points. You can get by on a couple hundred skill points and not have a need for more. There is ways around needing all of them, aka craft all your food to last you 6 months and then remove all points in provisioning.. that kinda thing. ;)

    They want the title that says I earnt and spend 12 million gold on houses then spend the 12 million gold on houses

    I have no issues with them getting a seperate title or whatever but it's stupid that someone with a credit card will get the same title as someone like myself who spent a lot of time and effort collecting my fortune of which I'll end up depending a decent chunk of to get those manors and then I will have to rebuild those losses since got forbid I'm ever below 10 million gold! Unacceptable.

    Oh and btw while I don't subscribe to the whole pay to win theory there is a good case for it I guess,

    Should I buy these BiS staffs for my build at 1 million each or should I save up for my house,

    13 million is ALOT of sharpened weapons and gold tempers, like I said I don't particularly subscribe to that way of thinking but it's a pretty fair argument

    I spend million of gold constantly on testing out new builds etc

    How exactly is having a title "winning" at the game? Serious..?

    Well, a lot of achievements are bound to DLC's which you have to pay for either way, but isn't considered pay to win. Titles do not give you any pay to win. If it was gold exclusive it might be proclaiming your ingame wealth. Now it can be either your ingame wealth or your choice not to farm the gold but rather spend money on it.

    Should they? No

    Did they? Yes

    Honestly, they should not even sell the houses in the Crown Store unless the same requirements are met that everyone else has to meet.

    That's not how you treat your V.I.P. customers, though. V.I.P.s go to the head of the line.

    That's the breaks. Get used to it because this is just more of what we can expect from them.

    I said "no", even though I'm considering crown purchase of housing to save my gold for other stuff (like working on the furniture designs - which could be even more expensive!). Gotta do something with all those sub-crowns. But it seems kinda "low" to just buy a title - especially considering that when purchased wth crowns you get it without any of the quest requirements. Maybe a reasonable compromise would be no title with a crown purchase unless the quest related requirements are also met - and that could occur any time from the purchase or later on?

    I can get behind this.

    So do tell them all you nay Sayers...what is the difference with purchasing Dark Brotherhood dlc and getting the Assasin achievement title vs buying these homes and getting a title? You had to pay for both. Just curious what your responses will be. And I know the title comes from doing dlc quests but you had to either buy the dlc or buy a membership. Oh and for the record before it's thrown at me, yes I have completed all the Zone achievement for each faction and it doesn't bother me in the slightest that a title is given if someone purchases a home from the crown store and recieves it/them.
