    You read it again. Clockwork City is in Morrowind. I love me some content cutting so they can charge me twice.

    "Clockwork City is a standard DLC game pack and does not require the user to have purchased Morrowind"
    -the linked article

    Should clear that up.

    Nope, doesn't clear it up. It's still Morrowind content excluded from Morrowind "chapter". They'll add a boat or what have you to get to Clockwork City from a base game zone. Whoopdydo.

    You can't just declare something "Morrowind content". We have known about Clockwork City as an upcoming DLC since the announcement of the change to B2P 2 years ago, way before we even knew Vvardenfell was considered for development.

    That actually makes it sound more like cut content...

    Considering Clockwork City is basically a separate realm, how would it not make sense to be it's own DLC?

    It may have ties to Morrowind, but it is most assuredly separate from it.

    Complain all you like about missing access to thing within Morrowind: locked doors, quarantined areas, but even if Morrowind itself had been a free update, the domain of Sotha Sil likely never was going to be.
    Just because you don't like the way something is doesn't necessarily make it wrong...

    Hmm.. article says avail to all ESO players.. no mention of to ESO Plus.. and Morrowind purchase not required.

    Not sure I like those.

    Then you're misunderstanding the article. Base game patches are free for everyone, you don't Morrowind and the Dungeons and Clockwork City content needs to brought Crowns.

    Nope. Thats exactly the issue.

    You still don't get it, bro.

    You dont get it bro.

    They are releasing "Morrowind" content, without requiring the Morrowind paywall they created.

    And really it doesn't matter. It is sort of interesting to guess about, but one way or another no one will ever be able to prove if it was cut or not just to sell later. No ones mind will be changed. In the end it is just a question of if you want to pay for it or not.

    Although I am sort of sad to see the smallest content dlc be the one after they start making chapters. Hopefully they don't keep getting smaller. Making our subs even less of a value.

    People will never be happy will they? Want do you want them to do? We get some quests and dungeons. There is like 345680349 other things to do besides these things. I've played for like 300 hours and I haven't came close to finishing everything on my one character. I could still make like 8 more.

    Besides, play something else and take a break if you are bored. Come back when you want later and maybe it'll feel refreshed?

    You mean, the broken thing called battlegrounds, that they cant figure out why its broke? Yeah.. thats the only thing I see as being a benefit for owning Morrowind for this content. That they call Morrowind DLCs....

    Good lord, its called.. I paid for Morrowind.. how about I get the DLCs with my ESO Plus and the ESO Plus people who did not pay for the expansion not get the Morrowind DLCs.

    Is chaos ball going to be an ESO version of Hutt Ball? :o

    ooh I love hutt ball.

    Better give Templars and DKs some mobility though. Huttball is dominated by Sorcerers and Operatives exactly because of mobility and the differences in SWtoR are smaller than those in ESO. Sorcs and StamNBs are already like 80% of the population in BGs and mobility is a big reason for that.

    Very true. I mean; I did fine as a sniper controlling mid but the closest class to maybe do that might be sorc here, who also has mobility.

    I don't freaken care if it doesn't require Morrowind. Whoopdydo they added an entrance outside of Morrowind. Probably some idiot on a boat takes you there. It's STILL Morrowind content. That was cut. To sell as DLC. It should've been there to begin with, but ok.

    Actually, without going into too much detail, Clockwork City is not on Vvardenfell. The introduction might be part of the Chapter, but is it definitely not contained by the Chapter.

    It sounds like the Horns of the Reach DLC is based of the Shadows model, which I thought was very underwhelming.
    Make Rush of Agony "Monsters only." People should not be consecutively crowd controlled in a PvP setting. Period.

    This is pretty much saying that I should return to ESO once a year, for about a month or two (june/july). I'll be able to enjoy the chapter, and finish the three new DLCs easily. So that's like 26€ for ESO Plus and 40€ for Morrowind. Which is, again, very costly for a 1-to-2-month playtime. Pretty sure I'll give this game a boot if the things keep developing in this way.

    That works. They already admit that there are people who do this. I call them "Vacation players" because they swing by, partake in the local attractions, then go back to whatever it was they were doing before. Now, whether people are willing to pay to do that, is the question. My guess is that a lot of them will.

    On a related topic, I find this amusing from the announcement...

    "When Horns of the Reach launches, the base game will also get a major (free!) update. This update will include a new Battlegrounds map (Arcane University) and a new Battlegrounds ruleset (Chaos Ball), in addition to new homes, furnishings, cosmetics, Crown Crates and holiday events. "

    While talking about the "free!" update, they just happen to mention new homes, furnishings, cosmetics, Crown Crates and holiday events. Things designed to help separate you from your Crowns. Directly or indirectly.



    It is also funny that the first things they mention in the major free! Update aren't actually free, unless you paid for morrowind.

    Well, I considered Shadows of the Hist to be underwhelming. If all they are going to do in the Update 15 "free base game update" is add to Morrowind and put stuff in the Crown Store, Reach is going to be underwhelming for me, too.

    Only if you choose to buy them. The Dungeon DLC will probably be 1500 Crowns. I would be surprised if Clockwork City wasn't around 2000-2500 Crowns. Of course, ESO Plus gets both at no additional cost.

    Was hoping they'd include new BG maps / game modes in their Q3 dungeon pack. Seems like the perfect think to add with the new dungeons as they don't require overworld zones either. So very excited that they are in fact doing that. Now let's just hope they fix this group queuing for BGs soon.
