Unlimited Storage for ESO plus member's.

I am honestly surprised that that Zenimax hasn't thought about offering unlimited storage for ESO plus members? And I am not just talking crafting material. I'm talking about all storage. Of course, if Zenimax did that. They couldn't sell us the microtransactions. But they could definitely more ESO plus memberships. Food for thought.

    Only if you don't mind spending minute waiting each time you open your inventory. Cause they need to store and retrieve from secondary memory cause they have no way of telling how much memory will each player require.

    Bag space is one of the implemented gold sinks, not to mention Crown store Bank Space Upgrade for 1K
    So no, I'm not surprised.
    Happy? No. But also not surprised.

    How about doubling the storage crate slots for ESO+, like the bank? It's still a cap, but it also rewards committed paying players.

    The crafting bag deals with a limited number of items we can collect vs what is in the game. The relative server load between what the virtually unlimited crafting bag can cause vs what a virtually unlimited inventory bag for everything else is huge. The sheer number of items available for our non crafting inventory is a great many times more than what our crafting bags can contain.

    Zos specifically said as much when they stated they would not add a furnishings bag and what OP is suggesting is so much more than that.

    Sorry to bear bad news. Also, please do not argue with me about this as I am not arguing against more space and I really do not care either. I merely stated the fact of what Zos has stated on a related item and the general idea of the db query load on the server.

    Edit: This also makes sense of why the last time Zos added storage it was via the limited size chests as they are smaller queries on the server.

    How about we finally get more bank space upgrade like every sensible MMO does, instead of asking to be given the "honor" of paying to avoid this huge issue ZOS maintains for the express purpose of getting people to pay them ad infitum

    Sadly, I have to agree there, that is a very valid reason why we are not gonna get any of that "unlimited storage".

    Men, I'd be happy with a bank expansion someday. Would love to see the personal bank raised to, say, a nice round 500 slots, and the guild banks to 1000... (Oh, and if they would allow small "circle of friends" guilds to unlock their bank with crowns instead of inviting strangers, that'd be great too!)

    Or a limited furnishing bag... I would just want to stop having to juggle furniture, thank you very much, even if it was just 100 or 200 items, a "furniture storage" that is collecting everything from all characters in one place to, well, place it in our homes... it would also make upgrading to a bigger homestead so much easier that I might actually start thinking about that someday...

    what would you do with an unlimited storage? would you spend weeks to find and store one million carrots in it? personally i have a lot of free space even without eso+ . use your gold to buy mats when you need them

    Your off your rocker man that would lag the game everytime someone opened their bag as there is so many items in this game and crafting is unlimited so you could craft the next 10 years of daily crafting writs if youd like and i know i would 2 minutes per toon would be lovely but then i think about it and the lag would be 10xs the hell it is now so NOOOOOOOOOO
