I would pay zero dollars. This sounds like a money grab and you missed the option for not buying anything. I purchased the Imperial edition and regret it

I have 3 imperials, they are a great addition to my character portfolio. And yes, Shaiel, this is a money making suggestion for ZOS. I didnt put a 0 option for a reason.

For what reason then? Do you even know how to make a non biased poll?

Because you knew the 0 option would get the most votes.

Its got my vote, for sure.

This thread is for people who spend money on the crown store. Sorry.

As for your other replies implying that the people voting "no" to your biased poll don't buy things in the crown store, FYI I've spent at least $1700 USD on this game. This thread & use of the forums is absolutely for anyone that has this game. ANYONE who has ever bought a copy of ESO is a paying customer, not just people that spend extra on the crown store or people who have ESO+. ESO's business model is Buy To Play + ESO Subscription + Crown Store Cosmetics & Upgrades.

Your suggestion is a terrible rip off, especially when compared to other mmo games like WoW where they make extra races unlockable through playing the game as part of an expansion.

Games like Star Citizen will charge tens of thousands of dollars. In fact, I paid $27,000 for their bundle. See, I can use examples too.

So are you telling me you paid $27k for a bundle that includes extra races in Star Citizen? LOL. As far as I know, Star Citizen isn't even out yet. When is that MMO even going to be released?

And I was talking specifically about YOUR topic which was implementing extra races in an MMO. And I compared how an already existing game within the same genre as ESO has done that without putting it in their crown store. Plenty of people came back to play the new expansion with the new races and they incentivized leveling new toons, which means they made money since people bought the expansion and continue to sub as they play.

Nice way of ignoring the rest of what I said, by the way. Sounds like you went off topic and just wanted to mention how much money you spent on Star Citizen. Your poll is biased and isn't even in the correct section of the forums.

I would definitely pay for Ayleid, and adding diversity to lore is always a good thing

All the Lilmothiit are dead. All the ayleid are gone (King Dynar is literally the last of the Ayleids). The Dwemer are all gone (except Yagrum).

That's what we know so far for Ayleids but there are Wild Elves with vibrant and secluded culture and those who possibly made it to Summerset and Direnni Island. They could really expand on these

Part of the reason why King Dynar’s story has the impact it does (without being too spolier heavy) is because he is the last.

You start filling Tamriel with Ayleids and you render that character arc pointless.

Why would you desire this?

Because I did that quest 4 years ago.

Yeah, screw those new players doing the Main Quest for the first time! They don't deserve lore-driven character arcs that makes sense or to experience the emotional impact of Dynar being the last of his race.

/sarcasm

Again, I really don't understand the reasoning that leads people to throw out the lore in order to get cool things. Its sacrificing interesting story for shiny cosmetics. Ugh. One of the reasons ZOS still gets my money is because of the lore and the interesting stories.

Its not that big of an arc. lol

So because it isn't "that big of an arc" means that King Lalorian Dynar doesn't get to keep his title of being the Last Ayleid?

Whew lad. What a dumpster fire of a thread.

People who are for it just vote and go on their way. People who are against Crowns typically reply with frustration. At the end of the day, this is just a plea to get more races - any races.

There are quite a number of us in this thread who are not against Crowns at all. We are however against adding races without thought for lore. Apparently you have a hard time getting the distinction.

I think you'd do best to cut your losses. If you'd actually provided a "no" option, it would be leading the pack from the posts. Of course.... you didn't provide that option, because you knew very few people actually would be interested in this. You have a grand total of 28 votes covering some sort of "for".

I don't see your point really. And I can actually see the point in some of the most oddball proposals made in this forum, even when others don't.

Giving you the benefit of the doubt, perhaps you just wanted to pad your post count?

Crown Purchased Races:

The Crown store has been lacking on skins and polymorphs recently, and I wonder if it was because of their poor sales. Because of this, and with the introduction of Time Rifts tied in with the Psijic Order, I thought there might be a golden opportunity here.

I am suggesting that the forgotten races (and some still in existence) of Elder Scrolls be purchasable through the Crown Store, just as the Imperial race is. These new races do not require custom poly-skeletons as they can match to an existing structure; but these would have unique features, skins, and colors. Additionally, these new races could have unique combinations of passives; or simply copy existing templates (e.g. Lilmothiit would have the same passives as an Altmer ( Yes, a true furcaster ) or Alyeids would be the same as Redguards).

I believe this would be add a lot of diversity to the game, increase Crown revenue, and make a lot of people happy.

Examples of Poly-skeleton Cohesion:
Altmer:

• The Ayleids
• The Dwemer

Khajiit:

• The Lilmothiit

Dunmer:

• The Chimer

Breton:

• The Akaviri

Argonian:

• Naga

Although 0 is not a poll option, ESO could grant races during special months of Daily Log Ins. Or, I could gift them to you

I just want to look cool. If its a good price and isn't pay2win then by all means add them to crown store
