Why can you only have one main? I created and progressed 8 characters at launch of early access. I did this because there are multiple classes and one character can not do everything in the game because of that. I wanted to expierence the entire game so I planned ahead. It sounds like other people simply piled all their eggs into one basket and are now having to deal with the consequences of their actions. That is life.
What’s the big deal to negative nancies? If somebody wants to pay for a sex change. Or rather change their class, name, and/or race? Have at it.

It takes a long time to learn a class and all its capabilities. When a player joins a group the other players expect that player has done his share of learning of how to play that class. Its not a guarantee but is usually the case.
A race change option is there because the differences have little to no effect on that players capability. But the class change is not, and shouldn't be, because it is a radical change.
Well he's going to learn that class strengths and weaknesses! Yes, and he may as well roll a new character because that's how long it will take him to actually understand it.
I don't want a bunch of newly created top level classes joining my groups - they won't know what they're doing and ruin my enjoyment of the game, plain and simple. I'm against the idea.

Why would i care about it? I mean this is obviously Elder Scrolls Online, which means this is not other games, which also means it doesn't have to be like other games.
Nothing ever exists without a first time. And i simply don't care what other games are doing.

If other games aren't doing it then maybe there is a reason

Then don't assume on the stuff and put it more clear. Let's say ZoS gave us the option to change a character's class just once in every year, what terrible conclusions would this lead to?

Its pretty obvious why they don't institute class change. Because if they did and you could flip back and forth at will, not only would the meaning in choice be almost none; they'd also have no reason to sell additional character slots, or really keep anyone in game longer than the time it takes them to get bored.
The same applies to skill freedom. Some things are always more powerful than others by nature of their design. In the real world Melee combat was the most noble pursuit and took decades of training and prestige. Then the firearm came and any skilless hack who could point in the right general direction could take down masters of a lifetime. War changed in time it took a lightswitch to flip.
In similar fashion, classes stand as a gating. One that you cant overcome and run the same thing as everyone else. Take away classes and the outcome is obvious. At first you would have the most powerful heal, paired with the most powerful attack and defence.
Then they would homogenize abilities because of complaint until everything was basically a complete (unlike the partial of now) reskin of everything else. If thats not boring to you, then gosh. I doubt my insults could really do the lack of intelligence justice either way.
Personally im sick to death of these topics. Nobody cares that you cant be bothered to do something. This is a game of more people than just yourself and actions, whilst constantly said to be 'not effecting anyone' effect everyone by proximity and availability. They are never personally orientated at all, because other people have to live along side the consequences of them.
5 year old logic.

Easy enough to level to 50 within hours. Buy or geta friend to run you through skyreach. Theres plenty of 720 skyreach players running around and they are awful players. No to class change, learn the class by leveling properly.

Thank you I have 13 Characters I know how to grind it's just a pain in the arse. I have a Character that I don't even play with. If zos added Class change it would save losing all the skill points acquired horse training Ect, and you'd still have to grind your skills up on your new class that you changed it too. I just want another Magic Sorc for PvE so I don't have to mess changing skill morphs and cp all the time, I do a lot of PvP and PvE with this Character. I also do a lot of farming with all my Character's it's not about being Lazy. Also I don't think Zenimax will lose money because I think a lot of people would spend Crowns if they introduced this in the Crown Store.

Really, 13 characters and not one of them is a PvE Sorc??
It may not be lazy, but it’s certainly not planning ahead either ...

I’ve seen mmos with class change btw and if you’re worried about inexperienced players there’s already enough of those to go around, plus simply getting to 50 does not make you experienced. Especially considering the fact a lot of people power level to 50. Let’s not strawman this one up.
No one knows what Zos will add to the game, not even zos. People said 2h would never count as 2 pieces and people complained about beating a dead horse but now look.
Ps. Don’t confuse entitlement with convenience.
You don’t need 50 levels to learn your class. Plus there are a gazzillion guides on YouTube.
I’m confident players spending real money for a class change would be very serious about learning to play.
If you’re so worried about grouping with under performing high level players, you should seek a guild. As for Pugging - we’ve all have had our share of horror stories. With high level toons too.
I don’t have a desire or need for this feature, but offering this service - like other MMO’s creates more opportunities which keeps more players.
