Elsweyr - Did you buy the collectors, normal, or not buy at all?

    I have not committed yet! I have not even finished the Summerset chapter on a character yet. Too much content for this casual gamer. Good problem to have right!
    Celebrate for life is short but sweet for certain.

    I have not bought it yet because the pre order items do not appeal me. I really wanted the collector edition but turns out to be around $70.00 canadian dollars and right now man.. I just bought a car and I am saving for a down-payment for a house, it really puts things in perspective!
    I will be buying the normal edition of Elsewyr probably a week or two prior to the release =)

    I'm a personality junkie. I knew I'd be buying the personality by itself sometime In the future if I didn't get the collectors pack . When looking at the crown cost of buying a personality individually, plus the normal chapter price it didn't make much sense to buy it separately. And even though I could do with out the other stuff I viewed it as a cherry on top. The mount is nice and the pets were cute so it was a nice cherry 😊.

    Don't care for cats or reptiles...and necromancers? The idea of playing one is about as appealing as killing innocents for the DB. Summerset was irritating (like the design of Alinor, the developers didn't know where the hell to go with it). Murkmire was an absurd disappointment...defined more by the endless slew of combat nerfs that came with it and ZOS seems committed to perpetuate. Like the capping of CP's, developers seem intent on stripping away the fun in lieu of their own interests. For me, ZOS as lost it's gloss.There is nothing in Elsweyr that I find even slightly appealing.

    I always go for the most expensive digital version if the price is reasonable.
    I'm not poor but still I won't support greed, except my own ;P

    I compared the differences between normal and collector and decided that I could live without the collector one.

    My daughter wanted to pre order it for me as an early fathers day gift, i asked her to hold that thought.

    I am not into wasting my own money let alone my daughters who has twins to look after, how the EU server issues play out determines if i spend another penny on this game or not. At the moment it's not.

    If the server issue's continue, i will ask her to get me warhammer chaosbane instead.

    Come on dude, don't quit on ZOS and @ZOS_MattFiror they need money, we must finance his pina coladas no matter what condition the game/server is, it an obligation we at EU server have, we must pay to him

    But why? I can continue to get the lag, the fps drops, the load screens, the DC's without spending anymore money on the game, so for people who buy it, thats ok, its there money, i wouldnt dream of telling somebody how to spend there hard earned.

    Just not for me, every evening it's the same, and sometimes worse.

    I just need the final patch notes and Im a buyer. It will probably be regular edition. I need to see where nightblade ends up. After accepting the reality of an overall nerf, the class is very fun at the moment. There's just so much qq I'm worried they're not done making changes.

    Collectors upgrade. I returned to the game not long ago and thought i'd support the game by buying the better version. It also helps that I want that mount.

    I got it as I always get them when they are on pre-order. However I have been drawing less enjoyment from the newest content so I don't really feel excited enough for new shinies to pay for them.

    I will make a necro for sure. That's the one and only selling point for me. I am not interested in the quests or the new stories. I still have a LOT of that to do in previous zones/base game so zero rush. My trials/dungeons guilds have all disbanded and the people I ran pledges and DLC HM dungeons with don't seem to play anymore, so I have zero interest in the trial. But I digress.

    The thing that caught my eye was the new mount, of course. But after I pondered for a bit I realized some things. First, everyone is gonna have one. It kind of devalues it in my book. Second, it looks bulky. Like a bear. And it probably moves like one too, bringing instant motion sickness when sprinting. Third. 'Exclusive' just means that it's the only one now. Before long, we'll see black, white, striped, armored, ghostly, cyborg, and fluorescent variations. So why jump at the opportunity now and pay more for a bland version of it?

    The other items don't lure me in. Another pet. It's cute. But there will soon be versions in all the colors of the rainbow so not jumping at this either. I also have plenty of pets already. A costume, I already have too many of those too. Emotes. A nice cultural touch but is it worth the extra price? Not to me. Same for the memento. And I dont find the dragonbone armor interesting at all.

    So yeah I bought it but I didnt't pay for any extra goodies.

    The only reason why I bought the collector's was for the dragon bone armor. That's literally it. The rest is trash. The update is trash. This is the biggest cash grab update I've seen from ZoS lol. Furries, furry fan-service, dragons, and immersive necromancers all in one go. Niiiice.

    100% sure that Dragonbone will be motif style to grab in Elsweyr like Morag Tong and Imperial were previously so it seems kinda wasteful for me to buy collectors upgrade, but hey it is your money if it makes you happy I see nothing against buying it.

    I'm sure too, but I liked that I could convert anything to it. Previewed the style on PTS and rather liked it, so it's whatever for the extra 10$ for me. But yeah, not impressed with the next update at all.

    With servers being a total pile or poop, I have no intend to help zos financially if those finances are not budgeted for performance improvement.

    Normal. I don’t have any interest in the extra items offered in the collectors’ edition.

    There is only one game I regret buying more.. Bless Online.

    Since I didn't guy it on ZoS website can't refund it now... Stupid me for trusting them, I never thought that a game as big as ESO could be plagued with such bad server performance.
