1 free race change per account but what about free rename?

Did they tell if the free re-race includes rename?

There is no point for race change if the new character is stuck with obsolete name.

    Especially if your old character is called Fire-On-Mountain because you thought it would be cool for an Argonian, but then you race change him into a Breton.
    Yeah .....

    *Edit* That's not my actual name in the game. Just an example.

    Just one? That’s pretty *** of them. Maybe the race changes won’t be as huge as we think.

    I have 20 characters. Do you know how much it would cost me in real money if I did race and name changes on all 20 of those? Or even just half of them?
    Not to mention, I'm a subscriber and spend a large amount in the crown store as well. I pay lots for this game, and don't particularly want a hugely expensive change to my game that's forced on me.
    Now, if they sell race-and-name-change tokens for a dramatically reduced price to make up for it, I'll be ok with it.

    I won't be changing my races at all if their changes to the racial skills are minor. If they're major, though, then I'll have a problem. How about you let us do our griping, and mind your own business?

    Yeah. Isn't rename also more expensive than race change?
    Would've rather had free rename instead then, lol.

    It must suck to play the game chasing meta rather than just enjoy a race you actually like to play.

    Wow 16% sale...even on black friday it was 30%
    They better lower the prive when these changes go live, or the changes are so small noone rly cares

    Maybe make the tokens 1k each, capped by your ammount of charsslots or so

    I do t think race change will have much impact on your current playstyle which Ou picked the race for rather if you are a mag altmer you'll now have the chance to play as a Stam altmer if you'd like and can choose passives that are as good as your current ones

    It's actually a very clever marketing ploy and I'm not at all surprised.

    Thinking ZOS should give you 20 Race Change Tokens because you have 20 characters is a bit far-fetched, even for someone as entitled as yourself. Be happy they're even giving you one. It's not our fault you decided to spend a large amount on the crown store (like wtf lmao).

    Where did @SydneyGrey say they believed ZOS should give them 20 race change tokens in the post you quoted? I must have missed it.

    Realistically the racial changes won't affect the flavour of the race.

    If you chose your character race just because of meta... I have no sympathy.

    So you wanna make 10 or more necromancers?

    The point surely, is to allow people to try the new class without buying a char slot, in case theirs are full.

    It’s not about just giving free race changes willy nilly.

    If you wanna complain about something you likely won’t even do - you’re right! You can! :-)

    The point is NOT to allow people to try the new class without buying a character slot considering Rich announced that Elsweyr will include a free character slot for that very purpose. The point of this race change token is to allow for a race change if you are unhappy with the changes they make to the racial passives of your character.

    If you have more than 1 char over 50 it would be nice you got more free race changes as I can imagine ppl wanting to get the most out of their char

    If I was your landlord (ZOS) and decided to rearrange your furniture, but then promised I'd fix half of it for free, and I'm the only person that can fix it. It is not greed that drives your irritation.

    Who would let their landlord touch their furniture?

    1. they said nothing of a rename.
    2. the idea is anyone who wants to change race (clearly due to the pending passive changes) can change the race of one character for free.

    The name does not affect the passives or anything about gameplay at all. If you prefer Zos might be willing to reconsider their position and not give anyone a free race change.

    OK then :) My mistake. but honestly - not like they haven't made race passives changes before. Hopefully it is not too bad.

    Ummm, are you two even talking about the same thing?
    SydneyGrey was talking about how racial passive changes might affect him if they are going to be major changes, because he has 20 alts. It has nothing to do with necromancers.
