Why must I "agree to the legal terms to play the game"? It's absurd that you expect this from players, especially those who have bought the game long before the policy was changed and continue to dump money into a dying game. Stop assumimg that people will stay loyal and swallow every every pill you shove dowm our throats when we've already been through enough BS across all your games...yet now you draw a line in the sand when many are already fed up with your company. I love all of the games under the Zenimax umbrella but bad business practices have tainted that love..hopefully someone takes some sense to the next board room meeting before you lose more fans and future profits.

Our life is a chain of deals. Everything we do in life is regulated by deals. Actually we make contracts before or when we buy food, drinks, homes, cars, pay for our education, find jobs, pay for entertainment, make friends, love, form family relations, communicate with the state, prepare funeral, call for taxi, watch TV, etc. - everything. Simply sitting on toilet is already a result of several contracts: first you had to make a deal with your housing and public utility service to maintain drainage, then you had to make a toilet purchase and installation agreement, to buy a newspaper to read it there, to buy water and soap to wash your hands. Don't forget to make a toilet paper purchase contract. There are lots of contract types - verbal and written, commutative and beneficence, bipartite and multilateral, service and labor ones, license, purchase, loan, lease, rental, etc., etc., etc., regulated differently depending on the country you live in and it's international agreements. Some contracts are qualified as adhesion contracts - they provide little or no opportunity to negotiate the terms. You either accept or decline it entirely. Some contracts even outlive their parties - the parties of the Egyptian-Hettite Eternal treaty signed in 1259 BC are long dead, but the agreement they entered still exists .

You make contracts beyond the game and within the game - buying and selling goods to in-game merchants, joining guilds, summoning your Daedric servants (well, some of them. This book shows an example of a bad contract with a Dremora), participating in raids, etc. There is even a certain Daedric Prince of contracts - Clavicus Vile ! Our relations with Pacrooti is a simple gambling contract. Ah, what I personally dislike is the way quests are taken - it's almost the same way: you come to an NPC who needs your service, he tells you his terms and all a player is able to do is either to accept or to decline it. Stop! I want to know the terms of payment before we make a deal! It's a service contract, not a gambling one!.. I want to know the price he offers, the exact amount of experience, money or items I will receive for going out to the Killing Fields and applying my skills and knowledge there. But the dialogue lines do not allow us to discuss it. This is why I like PvP modes more - it's all clear there before you start. Much better than dwelling in dungeons earning keys you spend on those Undaunted boxes with an uncertain chance of getting the pauldron you want. It is important to discuss the terms before the parties make a deal. Simple misunderstanding leads to arguments, quarrels, wars, chaos. Moreover keep in mind some contracts can be qualified as bogus or sham agreements. Well, it's a very huge topic, I only tried to show a very small part of it using simple non-legal terms. People spend years to study it in universities .. Ignorantia juris non excusat - ignorance of the law is no excuse. But every law is directed to the ignorance of it. Sometimes it is the reason contracts are that huge.
