Greymoor Physical Collector Edition Cost Released
-
Blacknight841✭✭✭✭✭Maybe with the extra 30$ the statue will be a bit more sturdy, and it won't break in the box before it arrives.Edited by Blacknight841 on January 17, 2020 6:28AM1 -

✭Ooff, $250 AUD for the physical collectors edition.
Not sure the extras are worth that much...1 -

Breaks anyway.
Seriously these shipping prices feel outrageous in comparison to amazon and eBay.1 -
Lintashi✭✭✭✭✭When they announced Physical edition, I wanted to buy it, but after hype wave settled and I carefully considered all pros and cons, I think, I will go for cheapest digital upgrade. My reason for this are simple: I have Morrowind Physical CE, and It was not only cheaper, had beautiful big artbook, as opposed to coins, but you could send receipt of your purchase to support, and get preorder items. Since this practice is not working now, I "pay for inconvenience". I buy most expensive pack, and get to play 2 weeks later then those who preordered cheapest one ( 1 week early release+ 1 week for package to arrive to me across all Europe. Also, none of the digital items really fits my characters and their playstyles. Also, sadly, I cannot display such statuette proudly, since many of my elderly Christian relatives, will probably think, that I am part of some vile cult. I wish they made different statuettes, like Gryphon or Crystal tower for Summerset, maybe small mural of Alinor, and miniature barrow for or Lyris statuette for Greymoore.3 -

I agree 100%, it would be hard to justify displaying 3 daedric/vampire/gothic statues of Molag Bal, Vampire and Mephala to friends and family without coming off as a member of a satanic cult. That would be a red flag to any of my dates who came over. I think they should have something a little less offputting like you mentioned like a replica of an artifact like an elder scroll or a scale model of the city.
Even if I bought the collector edition, I couldn't keep the statue. What would i do with it?
I honestly thought going into the Greymoor live stream that they would be incorporating the nordic helm into the collectors edition might be more worth the price.Edited by skyhawk002 on January 17, 2020 9:13AM1 -

Cashing in on that Skyrim nostalgia. IIRC not even the Imperial Edition back in 2014 costed that much.
And that's like what, $20-30 more expensive than the Morrowind / Summerset CE. Wow, just wow.
If you're a collector, it's not going to matter much. CE's are not really for me as I never got into it, and tbh, I don't have the space for them, but for a collector, this just makes it more limited.
Don't get me wrong, I do have both the Imperial Edition and the Morrowind CE - they were overpriced but offered great quality, especially the journals and the statues.
Then came the Summerset CE which I bought, unpacked and instantly returned to Amazon because it was cheap and compared to the previous two ones a blatant rip off. If the Greymoor CE is like the Imperial Edition or Morrowind CE it's great but still overpriced. If it's like the Summerset CE you could even call this a scam.
For someone that is as negative as you are, you're here an awful lot.
Where does it say you can't frequent these forums if you happen to only post below positive posts? I don't necessarily agree with his negative comments, but he has as much right to post his thoughts as you or I. A tad similar to the internet mentality which assumes people shouldn't comment of stuff they have zero interest in after reading the text provided. I'm more thankful these forums are a complete contrast to the echo chamber that is the ESO sub Reddit. If folk just want to experience positivity, then using your logic, you too have a choice.3 -

✭£30 ($40 US) more than Morrowind for only half the box content (and that's before you compare the actual game content this Chapter fails to provide by comparison). You have to be joking.
This will be the first physical CE I don't get

Vinterskald✭✭✭129,99€ over here.
I agree it's sad that it doesn't come with an artbook of sorts, but I still got it because I love maps and statues too much. The only other CE I have is that of the Imperial Edition, and the thing I loved about it so much was the book that came with it, but well...
I'm just not sure I understand - in the German after-show stream, they mentioned we'll definitely get out preorder bonus with the physical CE as well, but I'm not sure on how we'd do that? Did they post any information on that somewhere?Barra agea ry sou karan.0 -
If you have a Best Buy store near you, I would recommend ordering through their website for in-store pickup to avoid extra shipping costs
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/the-elder-scrolls-online-greymoor-collectors-edition-macwindows/6398909.p?skuId=6398909
Does anyone know how people who order the physical collector's edition will be able to claim early access or the pre-order bonuses that unlock prior to the official chapter launch? Do I have to wait for a pre-order code from Best Buy or submit proof of pre-order to ZOS customer service?0 -

✭✭Anything with the words, collector's edition, tend to end up not being a collector's item.
It's just a way to get you to pay more with no real value or rarity to the collectible.1 -

@Personofsecrets Those are from a book collection called The Hero's Guide to ESO. They produced a limited run of 10,000 copies and numbered them all. They're very high quality, and the alchemy journal is especially impressive since it's full of illustrations of ingredients! You should be able to find them online but I'm not sure what the pricing will be like these days.Personofsecrets wrote: »Darkstorne wrote: »Not falling for that again. I can wait until next Christmas and see if they discount it 70% like they did with Elseweyr.
Yep, think this is the first time I won't be buying a Chapter day one, but waiting for a big discount. And I bought the physical CEs for all the Chapters that had them, and the base game CE. Mostly for the beautiful art books:
This Chapter is just so underwhelming. No one hand and spell line, no bard line, no arena, only a tiny section of Skyrim since almost half the new content is underground...
The vampire revamp is fantastic news, but it's also confirmed as a base game update too, so no need to buy the Chapter for that. And as great as archaeology antiquities sounds, I'm not paying $40+ for that.
ZOS know that their previous Chapters have always lacked in content compared to other MMO expansions, and it's always been a big criticism. Yes, they churn them out faster than the competition, but they also charge crazy high prices for their expansions. And 2020's Chapter looks like they're experimenting with how little they can get away with charging for. Other than antiquities there's nothing new here mechanically. It's just a relatively small new zone to quest in, for $40-130. That's a hard pass from me
What are the 3 front most books? I only recognize the ones in the back.
I loved the deer antlers and sheepskin they used in all the promotional shots so I sourced some of my own to display them in a similar way in my cabinet
Mine:
So yes, disappointed that there won't be an artbook for the second Chapter in a row, and it should speak volumes that despite this collection I have no interest in buying Skyrim/Greymoor this year, both for lack of gameplay features and lack of CE artbook.
But since ZOS were happy to sell items like Elsweyr's Wrathstone tablet separately last year, maybe there's still hope that ZOS can produce a new artbook to sell on the official merch store? Nudge nudge @ZOS_GinaBruno
Same size as the original game's and Morrowind's CE artbooks, covering concept art from Elsweyr, Murkmire, and Skyrim would be amazing, and I'll happily throw my wallet at that for you 2 -

✭✭✭✭✭Collectors' items don't need to be rare to be collectibles. Different people collect things for different reasons. Some do it for sentimental reasons. Others do it for aesthetic reasons. And others do it because they have a compulsive need to collect a complete set of something. Not everyone does it because they're hoping the items will become extremely valuable some day so they can sell them off to... other collectors.I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!0 -

I think it's crazy how people have latched onto an icon that's been openly used within the game for the "Skills (K)" menu item for at least the past 2.5 years (ever since I've been playing the game), and probably for much longer (since the game's initial release?), and believe that it's some sort of "datamined" indication of a new skill line.
I mean, it's great to think about what sorts of new skill lines might be nice to add to the game, and how they might work. Let your minds get creative and have fun with that.
But for people to claim that a long-existing icon has just been "datamined" and then get all worked up about the name it had been given way back whenever is just asking to be disappointed. I've fought mudcrabs more fearsome than me!1 -

Klad✭✭✭✭After playing for a month I picked up all three CE's new in the box for a decent deal (around $250) I liked the first two, but I wasn't impressed with the Summerset one
So this time I made my own CE
So I got this for 150.00 new
and purchased the CE upgrade for 50.00

January1171✭✭✭✭✭So just for some perspective:
Physical CE Upgrade- $130
Digital CE Upgrade- $50
So you're paying a difference of $80
You also get a month of ESO+- $15 value
So basically for the exclusive physical items you're paying $65
If you were buying everything separately-
1 collectible coin- $15-$20, you're getting 4 in the pack-- that's $60 by itself.
Statue- anywhere from $25-$80 (Alduin statue is $25, all other game relics like the reliquary, horn of jadarri, and wrathstone are $80)
Even with just those five things, you're still getting a discount from buying everything separately
And that doesn't mention the steelbook and map1 -

Dude... no offense but you are the reason they keep offering less and charging more.
The CE is actually 165 shipped no art book just a really ugly statue and a few polystyrene coins. The First and Second CE gave us items that were worth the price even without the statues and the Morrowind statue was badass.
This is in no way shape or form a good deal, I don't Blame Rich or Matt however, this is all on their marketing team.
But it's your money...I doubt this will be sold out any time soon though...the Reliquary that is another issue.1 -
