One more update on the ESO Store: The sale for ESO and Morrowind on PC will be live around 1pm EST (not 11am EST.)

We don't have a Crown Pack sale as part of our Black Friday offerings this year.

So my question is, would you have preferred having a crown sale or are you fine without it?

    I assumed there would be a Crown sale for Black Fredas this year which is why I skipped splurging during the last sale (QuakeCon).

    I would have liked a sale but it's whatever. Not like Crowns won't ever be on sale again at some point in the future.

    Even if they released a fire breathing flying dragon mount, I wouldnt buy crowns for their full price cause it's ridiculously high. I expected and hoped for a sale but now I guess I will spend my money elsewhere.

    I bought some during the last sale, seems kind of soon to have another. If they have too many crown pack sales people wont buy them for normal price, and people will buy less during the sale.

    Well you got one thing right, I'm not going to buy them full price, I have zero reason not to wait, the DLCs are not going anywhere and none of the crown store stuff interest me that much.

    Assume a new plan is coming after the 2017 backlash or complaints on eso Plus excluding Morrowind housing costs and crown crates.

    Among other issues with eso Plus if they did away with the current crown packs and eso Plus setup there are better options that gamers currently accept.

    Perhaps redirecting eso Plus to a season pass model. And changing crowns to a bundle pack with set items so they can offer these without adding and removing listing from the store.

    The crown store would stay as ppl would have crowns to use but it’s more likely that players would like choices on how their money is used vs being rolled all into one currency with major fluctuating values as this currency is also used for support issues, gambling, dlc, cosmetics, limitted items and housing.

    Yeah...right now. But if something you really want comes out in a coyple weeks I bet you will feel tempted to buy crowns at full price. Happened to me when that grand topal island property was up for a limited time, in the end I decided not to buy it, but that was because of the island, not the fact that crowns were full price. It showed me that I better have crowns on hand from a sale in the off chance ZOS releases something I cant resist.

    I don't buy houses, I'm fine with my current mounts and pets, it would have to take a mount pretty awesome for me to do so. I was to buy the crowns for Clockwork and any upcoming DLCs

    Not if they stick with this fake mount models (made from sticks, bones, metal and rocks) and charging mount prices for a ugly bone pet.

    I am stunned. I was going to buy crowns for the first time ever. I wanted to get 2 new character slots, and then depending on the prices consider buying Clockwork City or Morrowind. So sad...

    And also, PS4 players are screwed over regarding Morrowind:

    "PlayStation®Store: 11/21 to 12/6
    Note: In Europe, ESO: Morrowind and the ESO: Morrowind Collector's Edition will be on sale in the PlayStation®Store from 11/ 21 until 11/27, then the ESO: Morrowind Upgrade will be on sale from 11/28 until 12/6.

    During the first week of the Black Friday event period, we're giving away a free Nix-Ox War-Steed mount to all ESO: Morrowind players. This includes both current ESO: Morrowind players and anybody who newly purchases the Chapter between now and November 26!"

    So if I buy the Morrowind upgrade next week on sale I won't get the mount. Thanks Zos. Great job.

    I was trying to decide how to split my gaming budget between an anticipated crown sale and Steam's Black Friday offerings. This makes it easier, it all goes to Steam!

    Side bonus, the Mrs doesn't play Steam games, but does play ESO. So I'll get a little extra to spend since she was planning for the sale as well.

    With three of us in the house who play, buying during a sale is how we do it. If we don't have the crowns to get something from the store, it's not a big deal. It's just a matter of being disciplined with our money and spending it when we feel we're getting our money's worth. I'll just have to stretch my sub crowns a bit more :)

    It's not that long since we had a crown sale, as I recall. End of August? While I wouldn't be averse to another so soon, I wouldn't expect it.

    People who don't buy any crowns?

    (remember, the question is "Would you have liked a crown sale this year", not "would you have liked a crown sale for other people this year"... I'm not looking to buy any crowns, so I have no personal need or desire for a sale on them. /shrug)

    Disappointing to say the least, but maximum profit on the new crates must come first. We wouldn't want to risk upsetting the shareholders.

    They had multiple crown sales this year, but finally I own Orsinium! The only DLC I really loved :D

    I would love to see DLC sales, not Morrowind.. I was overall disappointed with Morrowind.

    Put away some money just in case they did. Guess there's more money to spend on something else now though I would've liked to get some of the things that were datamined recently. Oh well.

    They don't call it Black Friday for nothing. Traditionally, it was when the stores went from being in the Red (no profit from the year) to being in the black (positive balance on the accounting book). It's one of (if not THE) top spending day in the United States all year.

    Do say you don't want to be a part of that spending experience is basically to admit you are a complete marketing dummy.

    I would have bought a couple of packs and bought my wife a couple of packs. But hey, as other people have pointed out... more money to spend elsewhere.
