I ask because I recently came across my beta account information (which I lost) and am thinking of activating it for sentimental purposes.

Sorry I didn't think about PC players who moved to consoles!

Also players who just wanted many characters!

    I have a second account because I love the game and wanted more character slots. I keep them largely separate and enjoy leveling the second account characters without CPs. I sub with both accounts.

    I would go mad if I had to farm all those sets again, train another batch of main characters and get the CPs. I already have 10 chars on my account that sit idly, waiting for me to play them. Not to mention the monetary costs of buying the DLCs again.

    I have four copies of ESO. One for PC, two from the character copy offer on PS4 and Xbox One and another Xbox One account I created using the physical collectors edition I bought.

    With regards to the latter of those I didn't want to miss out on my early access via my PC digital edition.
    I play on that Xbox account semi-regularly and currently have a 110 CP character over there that I do casual stuff on.

    Main account got full and i continued with second. But after first vet and first monster helmet i rethinked. This leads to madness with grinding all bound gear twice. Instead i moved everything crafting to second account and made a new main crafter there. It costed maybe ten million but was the right choice.

    Now main account is for builds, dungeons and trials with all the best gear. Second is support and crafting and never do pledges or dungeons. Third acco is mules.

    I have my main account, with 983 CP.

    I have my mule account, with 11 CP - 8 characters that do nothing except hold stuff.

    And then I have what started as a third mule account, but then I played with it for a bit one day and found, "Hey, it's actually kinda fun to start fresh, with no CP and a new character." Well, not entirely fresh since my main account clothed and fed this account, but it was a nice change of pace... and now that third account has 672 CP all the dungeon and trials skins and a fully-geared vHoF/vMoL-capable character. Totally didn't plan on this happening, but it was fun and now I'm attached to my third account almost as much as my main account.

    I have 3 ESO accounts.

    I accidentally created an account with the wrong name when I first got ESO through misspelling of my PSN login - this is my first MMO and I had never needed to remember my login details before ESO.

    I figured out my mistake pretty quickly and started an account with my correct PSN login but just left the other login alone. When I started having inventory issues while trying to hoard last years Witches Festival motifs and recipes (unstackable at the time), I used this 'accidental' account and created 8 storage mules.

    Since then I have created a third account, so I can roll new characters as and when I see fit, mostly for PVP (non CP). All I have to worry about is getting skill points on this account, as my main account provides all the armour, food, potions, soul gems and any gold I need.

    I don't have to worry about crafting/farming or wasting skill points on these skill lines and questing is optional. If I want to delete any character in here when I am bored with them, I can do so without losing anything.

    "it's important to state that our decision to go with subscriptions is not a referendum on online game revenue models. F2P, B2P, etc. are valid, proven business models - but subscription is the one that fits ESO the best, given our commitment to freedom of gameplay, quality and long-term content delivery. Plus, players will appreciate not having to worry about being "monetized" in the middle of playing the game, which is definitely a problem that is cropping up more and more in online gaming these days." - Matt Firor

    I do but none of your poll options fit.

    It was heavily discounted and I had finally figured out how to make a bosmer (male) I liked the look of (on the other server). But all of my character slots were taken on the server I played on (this was before you could have more than 8). So I bought a second copy.

    Then I ended up switching to the second account as my main and stopped playing the first. Partly because I was happier with some of those characters and partly because I made all my characters on the second account in the same faction, which I figured would be easier especially for pvp if I got serious enough to join a guild. On my first account I split my characters across the 3 factions because back then that's what you had to do if you wanted to be able to play with friends who might be in another faction.

    Having bought mounts and assistants on the second I now just use the first for storage. Slightly sad to lose my beta monkey but I've suffered greater losses.

    yup. because i m in australia and started on the EU- when i was told both servers were equally good for me. and they were the EU was going at pings of 350 then. Then at Homestead- about 7 months after playing- the pings went to *** for my continent.
    average 450-600. i went to the NA to test it- and saw the pings were 250- so play an unplayable game- or start again?
    i got so depressed i didnt play for weeks. after that i decided - screw it- and the end i d one day have 2 accounts on both servers with all toons. so i started again - all the dungeons, all the sets, vma, etc, etc, 8 toons- all classes 1- 630, all the vet sets, etc, etc. its been about 5 months now of steady grinding and i have almost what i had on the EU. though i miss my old guildies and friends on the EU. and ironically now the NA servers are declining pings- getting 350s now. would love to play on a 100 ping just to know what it s like.
