I don't care.

I purchased it a year ago knowing full well it would be cheaper in future. I've had and enjoyed the expansion for months and got my value from it.

It's strange to see people so upset about this when we can all go buy any game and see it in the pre-owned or discounts only a month later. If you want to play at a launch you pay the RRP, if you want to save money or get things free you wait time.

ppl waste their money on all kinda skit

but when it comes to gaming everything should be free

Wouldn't that be great?

Except...how do the folks who make these games pay their rent, buy food etc.?

I've been playing the Morrowind content since its launch and well got my money's worth, so I really don't mind.

And if this offer entices new people to buy the game and try it out, I feel we'd all profit from that as well. The more people joining this game and keeping it alive and healthy, the better!

I'm more annoyed that BG's - the main reason I bought it - have the kind of problems that makes me just not play them.

This kind of makes it not worth the money for me personally - then seeing it free feels a bit like getting kicked while already down.

Makes me want to not bother paying for Summerset - I mean, I don't think there's anything there I really want enough o warrant paying for - unless the Psyjic line turns out to be a must-have in PVP - so I'll assume they're following that model, leave it and get it free when the chapter after comes out..

Kinda upset - paid $40 for Morrowind digital upgrade. Didn't get a mount, only got a pet I will never use, and the "treasure maps" were broken for so long they were essentially useless. Still haven't played battlegrounds as I'm not a PvP player and all I hear is "pre-made groups win, don't bother if you're not good at PvP."

It's nice ZOS lowered the price on supposedly more area to explore, AND give you a free expansion PLUS a mount, but that makes it seem like early adopters are just ZOS chumps. Be excited for ESO so we can milk you to give free *** away later when we lose player base with an overpriced, overhyped expansion that was mostly PvP and the PvE players were pissed.

Kinda like launch...my Scuttler is named "PRE-ORDER EXCLUSIVE" and my monkey is "PLAYED IN BETA". Mounts seem the opposite - better buy it in the Store, or you'll just be out more later for *&^#$^&%&@#$ crates.

Pretty much this. ZOS seems to care less and less about long term players and more about new players every major update. This has begun getting on my nerves and now "free" access to the last expansion with the preorder of this one just makes it seem like they are laughing in the faces of all who bought/preordered Morrowind right away. Gold edition was a hint of this but atleast there was an alternative in eso plus for the dlc

Idc or I'm happy. I bought Morrowind on full price, then leveled my warden main, playing happily with him. I'm just happy if more players can have access to the trial. I'm not jealous.

It's not bad that people couldn't get the morrowind can now have it. I believe it can make battlegrounds a little bit more populated too.

I'm upset that they could have made dlcs with no explorable zones free. And I'm upset because this expansion is no different than a dlc so why eso+ members paying for this?

Not at all, but guess all the entitled people will be stressed.

I bought MW for BG and enjoyed playing them all this while (except when they went CP) for £20 ive had my value, if people get a better deal a year later who cares. And it means BG pop will spike.

On the other hand Summerset delivery nothing of value to me.

I bought Morrowind in August for £17,86 from G2A .com. That seemed a fair price for the content to me.

Games are often cheaper or given away for free when newer content comes out, nothing unusual about this at all.

It's tempting me to wait a year so I can get Summerset for 'free'. Don't know if I'll be that patient. We'll see.

Bought the physical collectors edition last year, worth every penny. Buying the physical collectors for Summerset, I'm sure it'll be worth every penny.

I'm a bit disappointed that I pre-ordered it at full price and then found out a) all the "pre-order" bonuses I wanted were still included in the collectors edition after release and b) it was 1/2 price just a few months later. If I'd known both those things I would have waited and bought it after release.

But even if I'd known then that it'd be free with Summerset I would have bought it earlier. It was frustrating enough waiting from the announcement to release to make my warden, I wouldn't want to wait over a year, and then have even more content to catch up on.

I'm happy that they're bundling them together though because it reduces the perceived barrier to new players joining and returning players coming back. Same as when they sold Morrowind and the base game together. If someone has heard about Elder Scrolls Online just recently (or maybe knew about it but for whatever reason didn't play until now) there's likely to be 2 things putting them off getting it:
1) Everyone else will be at/close to the max level so newbie zones will be dead and they'll have hundreds of hours of solo grinding to do to catch up.
2) They'll have to buy loads of different things to get the whole game, which will be very expensive and potentially confusing.

But now if they do some research they'll find out that:
1) Level scaling keeps all zones current for everyone so they're still well populated and they can play in whichever maps they want right from the start.
2) Buy Summerset and you'll have all the boxed releases. Even better buy the Complete Edition and get the first 4 DLCs as well.

I am expecting some complaints from people who buy Summerset/Complete Edition and then find they have to buy the DLCs separately or subscribe to get them, although I hope not because I can't count how many times I've told people on the Guild Wars 2 forum "in any other game the Living Story would be called DLC, everyone would have to pay for it and no one would be surprised by that". But we'll burn that bridge when we come to it.

I don't care. Whys hould I? I wanted an early access and bonus items for Morrowind pre-order, and I got them. I had a lot of fun at Vvaedenfell. If I knew the Chapter 1 will be free in a year, I would have pre-ordered Morrowind, anyway, to get early access and bonus items and fun at Vvaedenfell.

I feel that they should have include something extra for Morrowind users.

Only thing which really saddens me - those people who already have Morrowind don't get any discount for pre-ordering new "chapter" bundle. We could get at least a copy of Morrowind/base game - it would be very nice to gift it to someone else, or create a "mule" account for myself
