    It's not time.

    The base game has 1,800 storage slots, or 360,000 stacked items.

    Additional Characters and Housing storage takes that to 4,160 storage slots, or 832,000 stacked items.

    ESO+ is not required. Is the Craft Bag a convenience with subscription? Sure. But there is plenty of inventory space without it.

    Where do you even keep gear then?
    If you like to play game of storage simulator I agree, but if you would like to play efficiently, ESO+ is pretty much mandatory

    Not gonna happen. Crafting Bag and the associated inventory issues that happen without it is one of the main reasons people subscribe.

    Why on earth would ZOS shoot themselves in the profits by devaluing the current Crafting Bag?

    Because they are above using inventory extortion to get people to sub? Or maybe because they finally decided that annoying people into subbing with constantly filling up inventory is not how you build good will with the consumers especially new players that don't want to deal with that nonsense but also don't want feel pressured into paying 15 dollars a month for a game they don't know if they want to keep playing? I have suggest this already. craftbag limited at 200 just to free up room is not going to stop people from subbing. It gives them an idea of how nice the craftbag is so they'll want to buy the limited one, but it would be great for new players.

    So, with got a new patch. Now I've got to farm Lokkestiiz and False God. However, those old sets like Siroria and Vicious Ophidian don't get obsolete, they are still good and depending on the content I use them. I've got more and more set pieces on my characters.

    I play Stamina and Magicka DPS, a healer and a tank. I play 5 characters both in pve and pvp. I do crafting.

    No, I don't have enough inventory space. Of course I've maxed it on every character + all chests + maxed bank. I subbed for two years, but I don't do it currently.

    I think bank space should be increased, maybe by 10 slots every patch. ZOS could even increase the size of the housing chests. ZOS might even add a "siege bag" and a "furniture bag" and make them crown store items, I'd totally buy them. Right now I store furniture in my psijic villa, but it's inconvenient and I don't understand why we have to do stuff like that. And look at the sieges. You can't even stack the oil! Why? Because they couldn't solve the problem of stacking unused 100% sieges and used and re-collected sieges which weren't at 100%. So maybe make only unused 100% sieges stackable?

    If you play enough to have mats problem its time that you pay for playing this game.

    Is not a pay to play game. They dropped the mandatory sub thing a long time ago. It's paying to bypass and inventory system that intentionally makes the game severely unenjoyable to many people. No one wants to play inventory manager simulator 3.0 and to intentionally set it up so that you have to spend 15 bucks a month to bypass it, it is going to *** people off and then most of them just bypass the game all together, shrinking the player base, making it less enjoyable for players that do want to pay the 15 dollars a month. Itys not necessary to rely so much on subs for income. And its not necessary to use strongarm tactics. The subs are worth it simply because people want stuff in the crown store!

    Either the title has been changed very recently, or 95% of the respondents can only read it as "gib craftbag".
    Maybe ZOS can implement such a thing, players would carry around something that works similar like the chests that we have in housing. They count as 1 item in inventory, but can contain 60 or whatever items. Make it earnable through a series of quests maybe. As long as the container isn't unlimited like craftbag.

    Nah 20 units per item is nothing, might as well not have it.
    Also if you know how to manage your inventory, you dont need ESO+ :)
    Also use free ESO+ trials to fill up your crafting bag as much as you can.

    This is not an issue. All you have to do is announce the change in advance. Since we now have 12 month subs, they need to announce it 12 months in advance so people can decide if they think the sub is still worth it.

    Count me as one of those who will cancel the sub, since crafting bag and double bank are the only reasons I sub. The crowns with the sub are getting silly as I am up to about 29k crowns with nothing worth spending them on.

    Haha. Hahaha. Oh my. Such a sweet summer child.

    You know the saying "Make a problem, then sell the solution"?

    Sorry, ZOS is 100% using inventory extortation to push people to sub. Good will? No, ZOS is happy to get people paying for subs whether they "want to" or feel like they "need to." Good will doesn't drive players to give ZOS a steady stream of income the way the convenience of the crafting bag does.

    That was a charming bit of naivety. ZOS is in no way going to devalue the main added value of their Crafting Bag out of the sheer goodness of their hearts to win the goodwill of their players when they can keep the value high and get the money from their subscribers.

    I thought they meant 20 stacks.

    Thing is, 20 units IS something. It allows you to autoloot without filling up your inventory immediately. It allows easy transfer of most mats to whichever character you use as a mule. It would remove a lot of hassle. It would even be enough for many style mats that accumulate very slow day-to-day.

    The problem with mats is that there are so many different types that you can easily fill your inventory with one-ofs in 20 minutes. Just by having that limited crafting bag, you could hold on to all those provisioning mats until you get to town and use them all to create whatever for leveling.

    As someone who used mules for mats pre-crafting bag and who decide to just not play because switching characters to manage inventory is an unenjoyable waste of limited gaming time, I can see plenty of value in even the very limited crafting bag.

    No it's not the only one. Access to all DLC is a huge bennie from eso+ as is all the crowns. Unlimited craftbag may seem like the biggest bennie but it isn't alone in the value of eso +.

    Not only that, giving people a small amount of craftbag doesnt infringe on subscribers one iota.

    I did lose access but why would i care? PvE is boring and i dont need any of the sets. I have the things i want/needed from all the dlcs.

    The biggest problem with crown store & ESO+ is basically a limited option and lack of choice.

    The first think I would like to say is - I get it. Game has to make money. But what if some players out there simply buy all chapters and DLCs that come out ? They also support the game. They dont have ESO+ , although they support the game, their gameplay experience is worse. Should this even be a thing ??

    You see, it is not about "money" (you are poor I am rich so F you etc.) It is about convenience. Some ppl like subscription models, others likes to pay up front. It is a matter of taste & preferences. Forcing ppl to do what is not convenient for them is never good for business. The point is - if some one does not like subscription model there is no force in the world to make them use superscription model.

    Making a problem and then selling a solution for it is not the way to go imho. And just be clear, for many craft bag is that solution and playing without it makes a lot of basic aspect of the game unnecessary hard / tedious. It is a deliberate design. Also I would like to point out that - situation here is similar as with "console fanboys" wars. One camp bought product Y so they will say anything to defend to justify their purchase decision.

    What I would like to see is "an option". And option so I could have a substitute / ersatz / makeshift / stopgap (whatever you call it) of something that ESO+ have but available as a account upgrade. I do realize that it will never be as good as "Premium account" access - so I dont even ask for something that is equal.

    There are 2 particular things I would like to see:

    - Bank Space upgrade after you reach 240 slots:
    It could be sold in a Crown Store as an upgrade for crowns (Yes, I know best way would be to buy it for gold or just grind but, - the game has to make money). That way, those who dont find subscription models attractive, could buy some bank upgrades, So their gameplay experience won't be hindered and they will spend more money on the game - money that they would not spend otherwise.

    - House upgrade tokes:
    Simply put, so you could have more furnitures in your house. Crown Store houses are ridiculously expensive, and imho they should have it included in a 1st place. I mean think of it. How many people are buying hoses for crowns ? And how would that look like if they will have more furnishing slots if bought for crowns ? You see where I am going. The game would simple make more money that way.

    So the results are unanimous. 38% of respondents voted yes. and the rest voted ytes and yes and yes.

    there we have it.


    Also it wouldnt effect people subbing. If you want unlimited mats in the craft bag you would still sub for eso +. But as an added bonus, let eso + subs get to put their crafting maps in there as well. with some stacking limits of course.

    Not even a good trolling attempt.
