    I think people are not understanding what op is saying.

    He wants to be able to play on pts on a computer. He normally plays on xbox and just wants to be able to log onto pts on pc without having to buy the pc version of the game since he already owns the xbox version

    He does not want to play on pts on xbox. Just wants ability to create a pts account without having to purchase the game 2 times
    Yup. And on other side we might like the game better on pc and than buy it again , so making this request real is opportunity for zos to make aditional profit and also have more testers and keep thw customers happy .

    I see no problem on ZOS giving a PTS-only key to console players.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Why not release a console developer version of the game ...

    A small sand boxed version of the game maybe the size of a starter island with just enough features to be able to test gamepad mode addon being developed instead of testing on console it's self

    Bundle it with the uploader so you use your console log in linked to Bethesda .net account and you could easily allow PTS access via the same version

    Does a couple things allows easier development and less addon bloat ,

    Ability to to test addons in the PTS environment to ensure compatibility with new update if PTS available

    Limit the free PTS to same developer island

    Maybe you can claim your free version as an ESO subscriber or buy it for a nominal fee like £5 as it's not a game .
