Everything's fine with the Crownstore. There are still no game changing things in it to buy and solely cosmetic things or timecutting useables but nothing which hurts the game

My only issue is the rare crown crate mounts that cannot be purchased with gems.They never should've implemented that.

Is this a joke ? I think they are great. I love having a mount noone else has (although i dont have one). And you cant simply go buy these you have to be bery lucky to get one.

As for a crown store strike ..... i will pass

Navoric_Envaldreth · June 2017

Passing. Dont see any problems.

Zer0oo · June 2017

I don't have a problem with the crown store as long as it is just cosmetical stuff.

Do i think that they charge way too much crowns for things: YES
Do i really need to buy it: NO
They may focus with the price of the crown store items only a certain costumer groups, but that is a business decision.

The only worry i have is that they will not release any costumes or other cosmetical things that i can get ingame.

I take issue with crown only motifs and crown crates. Specifically the crown crate consumables have to go. Waste of time, waste of RNG and honestly just insulting to get 2 or more of the same consumable in a crate. A decent rng crate system would prevent that possibility.

I think moderators are walking a fine line closing these threads.

We commonly see posts saying 'vote with your wallet' and 'if you don't like x then don't buy it'. I don't really see how a thread suggesting people collectively boycott the crown store until specific parts of the game improve are much different.

Most players will disagree with the boycott, so there is every reason to think these threads could lead to constructive discussion's about the best direction for eso, but if these threads are closed then it looks like zos is putting their crown store ahead of players (again?).

AzraelKrieg · June 2017

So because your other thread was closed, you decided to make another even though it will be closed as well for the exact same reason the first was closed?

The_Red_Viper · June 2017

Good job OP! With your strike, ZOS will surely go bankrupt in no time!

SantieClaws · June 2017

If actually everything cosmetic was available in the store this one would have many fewer objections.

However the store has been very poorly stocked ever since the crates arrived - the two things being related this one is sure.

Will Khajiit pay a reasonable price for an outfit - yes she will. Will Khajiit gamble for the same outfit - no she will not.

Will this improve as long as people keep throwing money at the crates - Khajiit is sure it will not.

Yours with paws

There is no fine line. This is their forum to manage as they please. The OP is clearly against their terms of service which we all agreed to. So I am sure this will be locked as it should be. Their is a very active thread to discuss the cave changes.

Opening new threads serves no purpose.

BigBragg · June 2017

Why is the Crown Store striking? Does it want more paid time off, better benefits, or perhaps just doesn't feel loved by the community?

Oh wait, did you mean boycott? Yeah all those frivolous cosmetic toys sure are ruining things around here.

Mysteri0n · June 2017

A few reasons one they the issue with crown store only motifs and the mimic stone issue, you can buy mimic stone make a rare style decon the sell the style stone for in game gold, Changing houses after we buy them btw the boulders dont hinder you from getting outsiede they actually make it easier good job zos, The issue with crates it is ultimately gambling. I agree with santie claws on the state of the store since crates came out they offerings have been really poor

Flameheart · June 2017

I have nothing against the Crown Store, I am a pretty loyal customer there, but I don't like the recent changes to Crown Crates RNG.

I realized that the real good rewards like the mounts are a lot rarer and harder to get now, bcause they get diminished by other rare rewards which aren't that high in demand, besides that you are able to watch the Nixhound Syndrom (20x ? more anyone ?) a lot. Also I am not a fan of the idea that you can't get all rewards by collecting crown gems at least.

Sigtric · June 2017

I'm buying more crowns today.

RIGHTEOUS_REPORT · June 2017

No wonder ZM are laughing right now oh my days.

Laughing all the way to the bank.

I'm kind of curious to know why a person isn't banned or even temp banned from the forums for continuing to violate the TOS with their posts?!? @ZOS_AntonioP

Which isn't bought from the Crown Store...

Reverb · June 2017

When do we start the "No More Nixhounds" chant?

Everything about the crown store is optional (except the pop up ads). If there's something about it you don't like, choose to opt out. I don't see value in discussing it to death on the forums.

abigfishy · June 2017

I approve of the crown store. Cool cosmetic stuff that is not pay to win. I just wish they had more stuff there and less in the evil crates!

imnotanother · June 2017

*yawns* one of these threads again. Great.

Title change so not violating zos precious rules, keeping discussion on track, the reason people are upset is after they bought something they change it, makes you wonder how many times this gonna happen in the future, and yes they is a pay to win aspec with the mimic stones, you can make a ton of in game gold off of them thats pay to win is it not. The crown crates have been lack luster due to horrible rng and the offerings in the actual store havent been worth anything since the crates

1) Their rules aren't precious. I know something else that is though...

2) genuine concern that should be answered.

3) Pay to... are you joking? What meta has a crafted item again? Right, none of them. Even if you could find a buyer, there are far better and faster ways to make gold in game as simple as walk and spam aoe.

4) Store has had a few highlights: dwemer spider mount, balmora dress (today), and a few things in the crates look good at 40 gems or less.

No complaints from me. And no, I will not boycott a cosmetic only store...

Oh and InB4 ZoS goons trample dissent.

AzraelKrieg · June 2017

Changing the title won't change ZOS coming in and locking down the thread.

Mettaricana · June 2017

I feel like they need more costumes like the lionguard sets just full set costumes of existing motif armors so much i could do with hallow jack or xyvkin costumes not the polymorphs hate those not to mention how many quick bucks zos could make releasing a bunch of 1k 3 costume weight packs. Since who knows when or if transmog will be this decade
