ZOS hasn't released anything good in the crown store since ever. The only good items in the store now is in the crown crates. ZOS refuses to release all of the good items in the crown crates back into the regular store because most people tolerate their greed lust of $$$$$ and actually support Crown crates by continuing to buy them. This thought alone breaks my heart because deep inside I actually love this game, but ZOS has turned this game into their lactating milk cow. Instead of improving the game by taking the suggestions of loyal fans at heart... they keep ruining the game by throwing more RNG crap onto us.
So..... you guys got your crown sales.... GREAT! I just hope that with enough money (I guess the 500 million dollars that they've won from Facebook wasn't enough) ZOS can finally be motivated to finally fix the damn group finder bug that is ruining PVE including other issues that people are ignoring these days because their so worried about another lousy crown sales.

This is why I don't feel I need any more Crowns on any of my accounts (plural). I still have tons of Crowns available from ESO Plus and prior sales. As someone who does not want to purchase even one Crown Crate, if they focus their efforts on stuffing the Crates with goodies, at the expense of direct purchase in the store, I figure I am good for life.
That said, the most recent events and showcases have had a couple things that I have picked up. The Jester hats. The Scholar. The odd costume. My supply is being depleted by these 500 Crown items.
As I am now on a self-imposed limited Crown budget, I only buy the inexpensive stuff, so if they start loading up the Crown Store with 4k mounts, they will help me a lot in making my Crowns last a whole lot longer.

Valid point, though I thought Facebook had to put money in escrow or something. But, I am sure it will be a while before Zenimax gets the money and they may end up settling for some reduced amount. In the end it will be the lawyers that make the most. 0 -

His much anyone spends on crowns or how they spend it is irrelevant to you. It's their game and their money to choose to do as they wish.
Further, your continued statement about the money Zos parent company won in a lawsuit somehow should be enough for Zos merely demonstrates you have a major lack of knowledge of business in general. Certainly glad your not the. Haines manager for any of the Zenimax companies.1 -

This is where i had to stop reading. "nothing good in the crown stores except the completely gambling nature of RNG crown crates"
imho crown crates are the worst part about the crown store.

Are you speaking English to me? I didn't quite understand your first sentence. First off Elder scrolls Online is our game. There is consequences in which can happen if certain activities are deem appropriate base on the players decision. Is this what we want the Elder scrolls online to turn into? A giant size RNG? Is bad enough that we have to spend months trying to farm for BIS gear in trials/dungeons. Whatever happen to the idea that I can use my money for crowns to purchase an item that I want? Once the transaction is finalized I can obtain the item that I want? Isn't that how the world works, huh? Instead now these days If you want that flashy apex mount you must gamble away your crowns for crates in which there is no guarantee of such item.
As far as my lack of knowledge of business in general. Might I let you know that I'm self employed. I'm into resales and now planning on going into the business of Nurseries & Gardening. Yes I operate my own business in the comfort of my own home. Had I treated my clients the way ZOS treats their players I would be out of business for sure because RL non gaming people would not put up such garbage. Gaming companies can get away with murder these days.Edited by raidentenshu_ESO on April 11, 2017 6:37PM1 -

@raidentenshu_ESO
Most people can read through the one misspelled word. I'll restate it better to help you out.
How much someone spends on crowns and how the spend it is irrelevant to you.
Hope that helps.
Second, Zos has a vested interest on working on game content itself. They know well that they must be able to keep player interest for anything else they do to matter.
Running a small business doesn't really mean you have a broad knowledge of business. Many operate small businesses but it is really their trade they know and not so much the busisness aspect. Your statements concerning the lawsuit clearly indicates you have much to learn about business and are certainly not qualified for management on the business side of a company the size of Zos and especially Zenimax. No doubt there.
Oh. Typing on my phone so I expect a few typos. If you truly run a business I trust you'll be able to figure it out.2 -
