JAMBPT - Just another "More Bank Space Please" Thread

Last threads were in June, we were due for one.
You guys keep adding sets and sets and changin them, therefore, making some useless and some relevant. With all this moving around, after farming so long for the damned things, I'm not about to decon what I have.
It would make sense to allow those who pay for ESO+ to not have to worry and micromanage inventory. Forget comparing to this or that MMO, I frankly don't care what other games did unless it solves the issue at hand.
So? What do you guys think? Should someone paying for ESO+ subscription still have to micromanage inventory? Double bank space is nice but not nearly enough.

✭Ther's plenty of ways that we could do this.
I imagine ZOS's preferred approach would be to sell you a dummy in the crown store at 500-1000 Crowns a pop. They would also like to sell you that drawer in the Crown store. Basically, I think anything housing would involve Crowns IMO.
I'd rather it be something like, unlimited space for sets set pieces with different trains count as 1 item (only 1 unit) or an entire set takes 1 item spot. Idk, like I said, many ways to do this, I just wouldn't pay for more on top of already paying for a sub.

It wouldn't have to be crown store if they let us interact properly with all our furniture0 -

✭✭✭IT would create more data to be transmitted to the already overtaxed system they use. To do as you suggest, ZO$ would have to spend more money, from what I am seeing between trade guilds merging, and going social only, the player base is down. This is also reflected by how much more they are charging in the crown store.
I don't think they are at the point where they are willing to spend money, when it seems like they are going into cash grab mode.3 -

I think a lot of people at end-game just sitting on their subs grinding trials or housing or fishing for dye colours could afford it and it'd be a useful thing for them to spend their idle crowns on.
For other people it'd be something to buy with their piles of gold.
So unless someone is going to call it p2w I don't see how letting people buy more storage is bad. Limit it to furnishings to reduce server load if necessary since that way they don't have to transmit your bag and bank inventory all the time.
Even limited-use furnishings might be good. Apple baskets that -- OMG WHAT A BREAKTHROUGH -- holds apples? STOP THE PRESSES!

✭✭Always up for more space. I suggested once that they add a small storage container (30) foe each DLC and a large (60) for every chapter to just store new sets.1 -
Hixtory✭✭✭✭Agree, they need to double the bank space already. 480 for base game and 960 for eso+
It's about TIME ALREADY ZOS4 -

✭✭✭✭✭Something like Destiny 2's collections system for drop sets would be pretty cool. Being able to reclaim them would require reworking how the game handles crafting, a little, but it would take a lot of weight off our inventories.1 -

I would sub if I had the feeling my sub money went to fixing bugs etc. But aslong as they keep pumping out content and expensive crystal senches without fixing age old problems I won't be subbing3 -

✭✭✭✭Inventory is a disgrace in ESO
It’s not playing, it’s not game interaction, it’s a tedious process that reminds us that ZOS do not give a *** about their players.
It could be made easier and simpler, but ZOS don’t give a *** about their players.5 -

Same with wanting to change hairstyle. Bored of your hair? Spend crowns to change it because we don't want to put any ingame barber in!0 -

Meh. Because the base hairstyle packs are account wide, and can be added/removed on a whim, it's actually one of the friendlier pay gated character customization schemes I've seen.
You do have to pay, at least once, but once you have, it's there, and you can tinker with it at will.
Only downside is, you can't change the hair color at all, so that a negative.1 -

Not to be insulting but I'm surprised you got an insightful reaction from that statement.
Are you aware of the cost of data transmition these days? I remember reading 13 years ago that it cost around 16 cents per GB of data. It's is much less than that now although I couldn't find a number. My 2-5 Mbps connection with 100GB of bandwidth back then was more than 40$ per amd I now pay around 65$ for 940mbps and unlimited bandwidth.
Now as far as items go: How much data does 1 item use? I'd be surprised if it was anything above 20-50kb per item.
Now you say the player base has gone down. Why? Don't answer, there are many possible reasons but anything that's annoying to a player (e.g. Inventory micromanagement) is a factor that could contribute to your user base leaving your game so you have incentives to invest in that area.
To be clear, I did not say that inventory micromanagement was responsible for people leaving, I said it is very possible that it is a contributor. Trust me, the last thing you want to see when switching characters from 1 raid to another after dealing with lag, crashes, bugs etc. is a full bank and inventory where you can't move anything anywhere. An example of a great bug: got stunned into an AOE during a trial the other day and couldn't break free and died and we had to reset. When it happens in pvp (can't break free with full stam) it's frustrating but you're only wasting your time time, when it happens during a trial you're potentially wasting 12 people's time.........Edited by CleymenZero on October 18, 2019 3:38AM0 -

I find no fault with your statement. I don't get to play but a few hours a day and what little I do get to play it seems like am always doing inventory management.0 -

I don't think the insightful comment was due to me talking about the cost of data, but rather the rest of my comment talking about why nothing will be done.
I agree with you 100%, but based on what I am seeing it does not look like they have any interest at all in spending any more than they have to on this game.0 -

It's not as common as it used to be, but there are posters who use it as a kind of, "no **** Sherlock," button.
Way back in the day, we had the "LOL" button for that, and people used it as a, "point and laugh," rather than, "that post was hilarious."0
