CrownStore side of Homestead is incredibly inconsistent on prices and need reviewing

Because acording to their own people the game is not designed for long term use. It is designed for exactly what you did. Short term burst of play. After which you leave and then come back later for another burst of play. They said this is what they see their players doing. And so that is how they will design the dlc.

It also makes sense that they would design the crown store that way. If they are afraid people are going to quit shortly after they finish their latest bout of burst playing, they want people to spend as much money as quickly as they can. Just like you did.

They're trolls and spend all day pretending to be obtuse to upset other people?

American people always think that 20 30 $ is not a big amount. No one is thinking that there are counties, where you can f8nd 30$ month sallary. For this countries eso is sooo overpriced . Abd yes. Wheb you think that housing crown items are overpriced, just take a look on crown motifs. 6k for dro mathra etc

The crown store prices for items are ridiculous. I think the point of the thread, for those saying 'don't like it then don't buy', is that over 500 crowns for one ******* tree is insane. it isn't that anybody is being forced to buy it, but that zos seems to think that price is reasonable. They seem to think we're stupid or incredibly rich.

Of course zos would prefer us to use the crown store to fully furnish a home, but if you spend crowns on everything from the home to the furnishings you will be spending hundreds and hundreds of dollars on an item with no utility (and if you want utility, that'll be even more crowns). The prices were lower on pts and the way they are now just looks like a blatant gouge.

I don't see what's wrong with stating that fact, I completely agree with it. There's always a few people who just come along to poo-poo on threads with the same old 'don't like it don't buy' comment. Apparently they see no problem in charging over 500 crowns for a tree and about $120 in real money for a house with no utility (before you even add your own furnishings).

Sure, they chose to do it for a while, but are now choosing to no longer do it because they have decided it is not worth it to them. Either way it's lost, either present or future, money for ZOS. And is not useless, IMO, to be complained about.

Hey, someone gets it

I thought I was so cool with all my hard earned gold, buying Forsaken Stronghold and furnishing it myself. Once the truth about mat drops, recipes, and crown store item prices hit me, I didn't feel so cool. One piece at a time, gonna take 6 months to have it halfway filled.
