That being said though if nobody paid for anything in the game, no sub, no crown store no nothing where does the money come from?

You think in the case that ZOS actually sees the numbers go down (as in they get less money) they will just drop the game like a hot potato and move on? Abandon their investment for over four years or maybe look closer what happened and if they can fix it to continue to make money? The whole 'don't give them less money or the game will die!' argumentation is really based on a rather odd perspective how companies actually work.

Where did I say they drop the game? Don't believe those words ever got typed. it's a legitimate question. If there are no subs, no crown stores, no other micro transactions where does the money come from?

The game runs fine for me in Cyrodiil and everywhere else. I almost never have lag and I rarely crash

Dont tell me what to do with my time or my money and I won't tell you what to do with yours

You can tell him what to do or not to do, but he can’t tell you... but YOU clicked on HIS thread.

Lol And we’ve found the brightest crayon in the pack.

I love how people come in here and dictate to everyone how they should spend money they earned.

Lol you call me the "bright crayon". Take off the helmet and step away from the buss window.

Do you really think that if we all stopped spending money and/or left the game that Zos will miraculously find the fix to all the issues the game has? Sorry, but real life just doesn't work that way. If they could fix it, they would have by now.

The OP clearly wants attention and agreement but that's the risk you take posting on an open forum. Not everyone is going to agree with you.

Yea I clicked on thead because it was posted to be read. Otherwise why post it at all?

Think I'm gona go buy 5k crowns tonight BECAUSE of this thread, or should I make it 10k?

Because shareholders are told about the total number of people playing not just ones that are unhappy. If all the people that are so called "fed up" leave and don't play then the numbers drop. If the numbers drop then shareholders start asking why are people not playing your game. If people aren't playing your game people aren't going to invest in it.

That is really not how it works. Lets take a look at Facebooks 19% stock drop yesterday ($119 Billion dollar drop ).

Yes I'm sure the shareholders felt like they got ganked when the company said, "number of active users is growing less". But that really isn't why the stock dropped. They got hit by sload scum when the company said, "Our total revenue growth rates will continue decelerating in the second half of 2018".

My point is, people can continue playing the game for free ( voting with their wallet ) and the investors will notice. The investors are looking for profit and future revenue growth.
