Should one character slot be included for free with expansion?

It was announced that 2 character slots will be added with Morrowind but they will have to be purchased in the crown store. Anyone like myself that has full character slots will have to pay extra on top of the $40 to create a warden.
Since Morrowind is considered a full expansion and introduces a new class, should at least one character slot be included for free?
I am hoping that if enough people vote yes maybe ZoS will change their mind. I think including one for free and one that can be purchased would be a good compromise.

✭✭✭✭✭No we should have to pay for more slotsAgain a poll which doesn't make sense so I voted in the most contrary way.
Do you want something free? Yes or No?
Of course the majority will vote yes even if they don't care, because everyone will want something free.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver

✭✭Yes they should include at least one slot with the purchase of an expansion that introduces a new classI would not use the word "free" though - that leaves a bad impression. I think it would be reasonable to include an additional character slot in the purchase price, with the option to purchase another two if desired.Happy All the Holidays To You and Yours!

✭✭✭✭✭It could have been something that came with the collectors edition. I hope they do that next time they add a class.Just 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 -

✭Yes they should include at least one slot with the purchase of an expansion that introduces a new classSeeing as all my character slots are full of mules and toons I actually play, yeah, I'd like at least one more slot so I can try out the warden. I can't get rid of the mules till ZOS pulls their heads out of their collective asses and gives us housing storage.2 -

1. It's not accurate. The expansion is not free, this poll appears to actually be asking if something should be included as part of it.

✭✭Yes they should include at least one slot with the purchase of an expansion that introduces a new classOf course we do have the option of deleting an existing character. I wonder which of the nine alts that I have spend six months on doing mount training I should delete, so I can repeat that process for six months on a new Warden? Of course, I could spend a crap ton on riding lessons.....that would make zos happy.
Considering we were given no hint there might be a need to save character slots for future 'chapters', yes we should get a least one slot with Morrowind purchase. Forcing us to either delete a character or buy a slot was another poor zos decision.

✭✭✭✭✭Yes they should include at least one slot with the purchase of an expansion that introduces a new classI don't really feel entitled to a free slot, but I think it would have been great if they just threw a pile of extra stuff in with the purchase. 3000 crowns, 10 crates, 2 extra slots, xp scrolls, exclusive mount and pet, new costume, 2 free months of eso+ and so on. Basically make the players say "WOW" I need to buy this pack because I'd be a fool not to instead of what we have now which is "$40 on top of my sub? *RAGE*"1 -

@Bigevilpeter
I personally agree with this idea.
Purchasing the expansion should provide a slot to play the new class by default (on either server so it's a total of two slots one for each server if ppl want to be technical about it)

True . Speed is important in a lunch delivery service .
In regards to the community , they are not in charge of ZoS decisions so if there is anything you would like to see included or free just say it . No need to curve your game desires to another audience . No one is defined as better a person / player based on more purchases then someone else has . Only ZoS knows if they can or cannot afford to pull off somethings free or included in a purchase , not the community .1 -

Expect to pay. Business people make this choice and this poll will merely let them know how many will buy an extra slot. Caching.
Seriously, with the few that are at a max of 12 characters they will see it as justification of not giving giving a slot away for free.0 -

Yeah , I was going to suggest avoiding a poll for that very reason and didn't vote because I'm not buying the expansion anytime soon , so it doesn't effect me .0 -
Danikat✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Yes they should include at least one slot with the purchase of an expansion that introduces a new classFortunately I don't need an extra slot because I'm planning to delete a level 10 character to remake her as a warden. (I've not played her much because I couldn't quite make the build I wanted and a second templar felt a bit pointless, the new class will solve both of those problems.)
If I wasn't in that situation it would be frustrating. I obviously don't have a problem paying for stuff I want or I wouldn't have the game at all, but paying for a character slot to be able to use part of the expansion I've already paid for would be annoying.
(Also I don't quite understand why ZOS are so restrictive with character slots anyway. I understand it can't be infinite but the limit seems very low.)Edited by Danikat on February 2, 2017 9:57PMPC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!
