    I can already tell you that the last two things are improbable, as they would lock features behind the Subscription.
    I can also tell you that ADDING anything to the current ESO+ concept Is absolutely ridiculous. You think ZOS will keep ESO us the same price and just throw in 30 free crown crates? That's 10k free crowns. The amount of money that would cost ZOS is insane.

    The idea of another tier of subscription is interesting. But again, there is no way ZOS would give you 60 free crown crates... That's 20k crowns. 21k crowns cost 120€. And you want them as a GIFT, ontop of other features, for 20 bucks. Please think about those numbers.

    I'm not defending ZOS' money grabbing tactics, but your suggestion is literally for ZOS to just throw away money and give us a lot of things for free. It's a nice fantasy I guess. :D Nothing about this increases their revenue in any way. Sure, in paper, as loot crates have no actual value, and they make more from the subscription.... But the amount you're talking WILL make them lose out on crown crate sales.

    I don't like the last two points and I think the price is too low, maybe 24.99 or 29.99 would be more feasible. Also, I don't think this ever actually happens but it is an interesting take on things.

    Who on earth would want 30, let alone 60, crown crates per month?

    Good luck with performance if you have unlimited crafting and housing storage plus housing items and collectibles. Did you mean to omit inventory space?

    Not being a PvPer I have no idea what PvP island access is, then again I have no idea what exclusive horse track house is either.

    Adjustments can be made, I was simply finding a rough gist of it. The horse ranch would be a gimmick but Zenimax already excels in those. 30 crates was a reference to the one gift every day design from advent calendars. If crates are really that popular the active subs would jump up quite a bit.

    I didn’t read that far. Zos isn’t going to be providing all those crates. Not even close. One much use reason and logic which coming up with ideas.

    You're still underestimating how many people buy crates. There are people who buy 100+ crown crates to get radiant mounts. A lot of them. Most people who already pay for ESO+ also buy crown crates. Giving them crates for free, and THAT MANY, means at least half of those people will stop needing to buy crates as they can get most of the small stuff and probably a few big prizes for free.
    Again, adding anything to current subscription model would just be a waste of money for them. I assure you they'd rather have someone spend 70 bucks on crowns in single purchases. Right now they get people to do that AND pay for ESO+. Their big incentive for ESO+ us invo management, which is why most people sub; that pull is strong enough.
    Adding exclusive Zones is against their business model and would cause insane backlash, especially from PVPers.

    Your idea would in no way increase gross profit. It would lose ZOS a lot of cash money. In order for your idea to be profitable, ESO+ would have to be AT LEAST 30-50 bucks a month, and ESO++ I don't even know. And that's just ignoring the potential relation between raw crown value (currently from crown stipend alone) to RL money being applied to your crown crate idea... Oh and crown store discount, so people will buy even less crowns. Your ratios are just way way way off.
    Sub rates in ESO are very high, and the people that don't sub do it for very different reasons. Cosmetic and loot incentives aren't the best strategy to draw them in.

    Edit: To try and tone this down to be more realistic: if ZOS were to find it reasonable to put some teaser crown crates as an ESO plus bonus, it would probably be around 3 per month. You're suggesting ten times of a realistic number.

    Edit: Just to clarify, most end-game people sub, and those people are simultaneously the biggest source of crown sales. More casual players prefer to buy crowns for specific situations and have no need for a subscription. Your idea is just already doomed to only affect a tiny niche of players.
    In the end you're basing this when thing in the misguided belief that ZOS in any way needs more subs or income. But the truth is they have plenty of both. The current system is very successful in that regard.
    Personally I think a small adjustment to crown pricing (either what items cost or what crowns cost) would actually increase sales as it is one of the most expensive premium currency I've ever come upon... But even then that's just my speculation.

    Yeah, I especially don't see the free crown crates thing, certainly 30/60 (MAYBE 1/2).

    Also, the price for such a service would much more likely be $29.99 per month, not $19.99.

    Lowering the prices or increasing drop odds had occurred to me previously. What price would you think for a single crate? 300 perhaps? I was picturing 100 and people just spend the same amount total in that scenario,considering that drop rates are so low. As for the gem price being adjusted it begs the question how many for an apex reward.

    I would much prefer that a lifetime plus option available, even if it meant you no longer received monthly crowns. As for the price, I am sure it would cost more than a year long subscription to plus.

I was picturing 100 and people just spend the same amount total in that scenario,considering that drop rates are so low. As for the gem price being adjusted it begs the question how many for an apex reward.

    The gem pricing is a bit difficult in my opinion, as I do understand the concept. I think it would have to be the last thing adjusted on the other changes. I believe the logic behind it is "The player wants this mount. After how many crates of trying we say okay, you're unlucky and deserve the mount." Then multiply that number by an average amount of crown gems you may expect to get per crate.
    In my personal experience, drop rates for most things (so not radiant Apex) in crates aren't that low, so to be honest I don't think I'm a good source for that. Outside of radiant mounts, I usually expect to clear out all lower tier rewards, 2 Apex mounts, and most of the medium tier rewards in 30 crates. With gems to buy 1-3 100-200 gem items plus any small stuff I might miss, that basically makes it my experience that 30 crates is enough to roughly clear out a season. 45 I would expect to have everything but the radiant amounts, though I can't recall ever buying that many. (There was once, but I was chasing a radiant mount ok)
    So yeah, I'm hesitant on that topic. I do think 300 for 1 crate seems reasonable; 4 for 1.1k, 3750 for 15? I just don't think ZOS would do that and has any reasons to change it.
    I mostly think that either the crowns to RL currency should be changed, or the general pricing of crown store content. 10 bucks for 1 single extra character slot. Most special mounts are 20 bucks, and there's just a general pricing discrepancy between actual game content and cosmetic items. I believe if mounts for example went down to half their price or at least 75%, it would help sales. Right now the prices are just too far behind the threshold where people can't justify the purchase. I know I would buy more things if the prices were adjusted just a bit, because I do really love treating myself... But you need buyers to be left with a good feeling after the purchase, like they treated themselves just a little and the purchase was worth it.... That balance is missing.

    I firmly believe that crowns as a premium currency are too insanely priced and not at the most profitable point for ZOS.... But they know their numbers, and we don't. We may be naive.

    Anyway, to come back to the OP: Aside from those issues, I do still find a second tier supscription interesting. As I said earlier, inventory management is the biggest draw of ESO plus ATM. A second tier that offers more in that area would in my opinion reach a certain audience and succeed.

    I still think the permanent discount + crates is too much together.
    Locking the PVP feature behind a subscription doesn't work, make it a DLC that is also purchasable. The Maormer fish skin is too long-awaited to suffer that fate, people would be furious.
    The cash-cow title is a beautiful addition to their pay-to-lose category and I want it.

    If they want me to pay for a subscription - they need to return to the original model of DLCs with large zones included in the subscription.

    Moving to a once per year paid chapter, with mostly dungeons as the 'free access for subscribers' content, is so not worth it.

    It seems to me the proposed price is too low. For benefits like those, we should all worship ZoS.
    I'm amazed how low the customer expectations are in these years...
    Game is broken mate. Servers are a mess. We play this game despite ZoS, because we love the game/lore.

    Game is in a so terrible state, we are having triple maintenance and cancelled events (Yes, still no news regarding the Pelinal event).
    Fix the game stability first, then we can talk about the ESO Plus price and benefits.

    ESO Pro would hypothetically cost $19.99 or so a month.

    ZoS has said they can't increase the amount of furnishings we can place because of performance issues. Some players think that is just an excuse. Either way it can't happen now behind a new pay wall. Players would see it as ZoS lying to them all this time.
    Same with storage for furniture. We have been told it can't happen because of the sheer number of different furnishings compared to number of materials.
    No way they are going to give $80 worth of crown crates for $20 subscription.
    PvP is already underpopulated. A new zone would make that worse. Locking it behind a subscription would alienate way more customers than it would draw in.
    I doubt they want to create a new pet every month. If they were to do this it would just be something already in game with a slight color difference. Players would complain they are paying for a new pet and only getting a reskinned pet.

    Your idea does nothing to end gambling practices unless ZoS simply quit selling crown crates. In fact it might make things worse for some people.

    My inspiration was Core Crystals from Nintendo's Xenoblade Chronicles 2, which come with the game but a few extras come with the expansion pass. I have made changes.

    They should put crown crates back with sub as it used to be.

    I do not recall crates being part of ESO+

    That's 10k free crowns. The amount of money that would cost ZOS is insane.

    I respectfully disagree here. 10K crowns costs nothing to Zenimax. It's fake currency. Cost Zenimax nothing and if Zenimax puts in more crowns, there is no inflation and value of a crown goes down. So it doesn't matter. To give out that much or what ever amount is to get people on a monthly plan, or a more steady stream of revenue.


    To @Avariprivateer how is this stopping gambling? It adds more to it. I thought this post was to eliminate crates. Having MORE random loot boxes doesn't end gambling practices, it's the same old same old, maybe even getting more people hooked who wouldn't have before.

    I just say, make a great product and people will buy/pay for it. Since Zeinmax/Bethesda Online can't or won't make a great product and rely on gambling to make money, shame they work more on gambling than making a great awesome product.

    Not my quote but I love this saying

    "I would pay It for support. But since they choosed we are just numbers and not customers, i dont mind if game and zos goes to oblivion"
