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

    Sorry, but offering a smaller discount than previous sales is not improper in any way, shape or form.

    Insisting that every sale be 40 to 50 percent off or threatening not to buy is absurd. This is just more of the outrage culture making it's way into every nook and cranny of our world.

    Why's it absurd? We're the consumers. They should be trying to please us, not the other way around.

    Better than nothing! I mean yeah I would prefer maybe 50% or more... But a sale is a sale! Might as well wait for a sale to buy crowns. Although I believe it would be kind of nice if ZOS had a large crown giveaway, like a lottery for crowns!

    Oooh, interesting idea! Use crowns to buy entries into a big crown sweepstakes!

    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.

    I play on both the NA and EU servers. So any time I want to buy something for crowns, I have to buy it twice.

    [snip]

    So if I want something, and I don't have enough crowns for it, I am happy to buy them. I love ESO and I personally like every member of the team that I've had the pleasure of meeting. But since I have to buy everything twice, I never buy crowns unless they are 50% (or more).

    Life is short. If you have not made love recently, please, put down this book, and take care of that with all haste. Find a wanton lass or a frisky lad, or several, in whatever combination your wise loins direct, and do not under any circumstances play hard to get. Our struggle against the colossal forces of oppression can wait.
    Good. Welcome back.
    We Khajiit live and fight together, and our struggles will not end very soon, likely not in our lifetimes. In the time we have, we do not want our closest comrades to be dour, dull, colorless, sober, and virginal. If we did, we would have joined the Thalmor.
    Do not begrudge us our lewd jokes, our bawdy, drunken nights, our moonsugar. They are the pleasures often denied to us, and so we take our good humor very seriously.
    Outfit slots are disgustingly expensive.

    Nope. I was waiting for the 50% sale to buy the largest option. Saw 20% sale and bought nothing.

    No. Didn't buy any. Heck, I haven't even spent a single Crown of my recent ESO+ allotment.

    The big reason the 20% discount is not sitting well with a lot of people is because the prices in the CS have started to reach stupid levels. If the prices in the CS were actually priced reasonably, then ZoS shouldn't need CS.

    Being that people want these things at 50% off, maybe ZoS should get the message and realize that the prices in the store are the root of the problem.
