    At $14.99 a month tops, it's difficult to see how it could be cheaper.

    That's 50 cents a day. 50 cents.

    No, but we should get more for being subscribers. They can do much better with the in game give aways.....it doesn't cost them anything, and they already have our money.

    It’s competitively priced for the benefits it gives. It’s actually quite cheap compared to other forms of entertainment. It costs a lot less than going to the movies, less than my Netflix and Hulu, less than my hockey fees, less than my wife spends each month on her hobbies.

    Anyone who finds this price point to be a deal breaker has the option of not paying and still getting access to a huge world, dungeons, trials, and pvp. Or just budget differently...

    I haven't subbed since Morrowind. If you don't find the sub to be good value, don't sub. That's the only way it will get cheaper.

    You're not getting anywhere close to $15/month worth of content though. It's one of the reasons why I stopped subbing.

    I was paying $180/year, in addition to the base game I bought ($60) and expansions ($40).

    Subscriptions are poor value. $180 is the equivalent of 3 AAA games. Yet all you get are a few short DLCs for that price (it doesn't even include the expansion).

    This isn't a problem with just ESO. It applies to subscription-based games in general (like WoW and FFXIV). What exactly are you paying for with the sub in those games? The value is even worse since you have to sub just to play those games (and you don't even get DLC).

    I'm a strong proponent of paying for content as it comes out. This is why GW1 was the perfect MMO/quasi-MMO for me. There was no subscription. There was no cash shop. ArenaNet would simply release expansions every few years, which would fund the continued development of the game. This model forces developers to release quality content that people want to buy, rather than creating carrot-on-stick systems designed to drive retention for the sake of retention.

    Yes because I only pay eso plus to support the game but the way the game is atm the lag is awful in pvp.

    Yes. I only say this because the games performance and reliability is so inconsistent that it makes no fiscal sense to get the six month or year long deals. Month to month is the only way to go as we often hit periods where sections of the game (most commonly PvP) are just unplayable due to performance issues or terrible balance passes or both. I take the most time off from this game simply to avoid mounting frustration with it.

    LOL. Should ESO sub be cheaper sounds like we are getting close to entitlement.

    It is competitively priced, not required to play the game and if you do not think it is a good value then do not pay for it.

    As far as the poll goes, it is pointless and Zos will be smart to not give it a single moment of thought.

    Apparently, ZOS didn't give it a 'single moment of thought' because this thread was made 5 years ago and they haven't lowered the price!

    Given the state of bugs in this game they should be paying us.

    Since so many people say they only sub for the craftbag, there should be a cheaper subscription that only includes the craftbag. like 5 bucks a month or something.

    Guys, this poll was not about an ESO+ subscription. This poll pre-dates ESO+ subscriptions. This poll is about the subscription that was required just to play the base game.

    I get an annual subscription- it’s cents per day.

    The game definitely has its issues, but for a form of entertainment that’s almost always on, it’s pretty much impossible to beat.

    I could pay more for a couple of new single player game and be totally done with them in under a week.

    I find the additional storage, craft bag and increased house limit to be solid QOL improvements - plus I don’t have to buy DLC’s.

    I rather make it more worth with more benefits. Cost nothing to the company and keep their revenue.

    I guess I'm a positive person and click YES by default!

    Yes. Should cost exactly the same that they are reinvesting to the game. Or use the sub money for eso and not other projects.

    The state of the game right now?

    With us "beta testing" the whole game for them every patch?

    They should be paying us to play.
