Is 20% off crowns enough discount to get you to purchase?

As the title says, is 20% off crowns enough of a discount to justify buying crowns on sale vs. when they are not on sale?
In my opinion crowns are grossly overpriced, and it's hard to justify buying them at 50% off.

✭NoA discount is a discount. They dont have to give any discount
That wasn't the question.
Personally, I don't see the 20% off as a problem. But it's also not enough of one to spur me to buy Crowns, especially since my 6 month ESO+ sub just renewed and I still have leftover Crowns from the last sale.10 -

✭✭✭✭✭NoIt's too late for them to change anything now, and we won't get another sale for a few more months. I still won't be buying them this time though. May showcase is very lack-luster so I don't feel the need to 'impulse' buy.

✭NoFor the first time ever, I will not be buying crowns on sale
Nice one ZOS
That's where I'm at. I think it's overpriced for crowns, grossly, but I do want stuff from crown store occasionally, so I will buy them during a 50% off sale. I will not buy them at only 20% off. For crowns, 20% off doesn't seem like a sale.31 -

LordSkyKnight✭✭✭✭✭NoGo make my Harley payment and maybe I'll think about it."And 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. The fact that the word "monetized" exists points to the heart of the issue for us: We don't want the player to worry about which parts of the game to pay for - with our system, they get it all."

✭✭NoNope. This is the first time I'm not buying crowns when they are on sale.
Also notice that ZOS advertise this sale in a different way. When you navigate to the site where you can buy crowns, you can't see the old price and the size of sale. I believe that in the past you could see the old price and that 50% tag.12 -

✭NoA discount is a discount. They dont have to give any discount
Do you think companies offer "discounts" to save you money?
Edit: Sorry, don't mean this to come across combative, it's simply irrelevant that they don't "have" to offer something. They don't "have" to have a crown store in the first place. This is business and we are providing feedback. Granted it's more for our own amusement since the only thing that counts will be the result and the created report that will end up on the responsible's desk etc.Edited by Rouven on May 4, 2018 6:35PMReal stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time. ~ Terry Pratchett10 -

Cost them a couple hundred bucks right here.
I wait for the sales every year, and throw down on every one.
Not this time.

Think you're missing the point to that response by a country mile. Like every single other profit making business in the world over, ZoS aren't doing us [the consumer] any favours, we the consumers are doing ZoS the favour every single time we buy something. It isn't rocket science.
No consumer, no game. No game, we just give our cash to some other dev.14 -

✭✭✭✭YesIt was enough for me to afford the bundle I wanted without having to save up anymore, and given that they are not likely to do another until the winter holiday season, I thought it was sufficient. I'm not delighted with it, of course, I'd rather they did 50% off, but it's been clear that they are getting more and more expensive so I was not broadsided with surprise at it like some seem to be. I fully expect this to go down to 15% or even 10% as time goes by. It is pretty obvious that Scrooge McDuck bought the company.3 -

You do realize that ESO+ is a better deal for crowns than 15% or 10%?PC-NA Goat - Bleat Bleat Baaaa7
