Concerned About the New Subscription Direction

You mean like transmute geodes? If so, that just sounds like more inventory clutter.

The caches aren’t an inventory item. They are actually counted in the (rather clogged) currency list, even though they’re not currency either.

I wish they’d just list how many you have on the Tome page where you open them, like how you have to go to the crown crate page to see and open crown crates.

I love crafting

the craft bag and the double bank space are all the motivation I need to subscribe.

but that's me

You know what I just found out, since I'm waiting to renew my ESO+ until Update 49 launches tomorrow. But I found out I cannot even use the costume dye section of the outfit station if I don't have ESO+. Who knew.

So a yearly sub as mine is gets 24,000 Tome Points on renewal this sounds great BUT... since only 2000 can be carried over to the next season its not a good thing at all

Wait what?

Players who buy monthly get their Tome points spread out through the year but a player who buys yearly gets them all at once, BUT must spend them all (except 2000) in the month they renew. That can't be right?

It's missing the fact that the eso+ tome points are delivered in caches you can open or save. We got three to sample during the pts testing and you didn't have to open/use them.

Less in game inventory and more like unopened crown crates/crown store gift inventory. When you go to the Tome ui, at the bottom it will tell you how many caches you have and ask if you want to open them.

All new content is free so if you're paying for content the game is a lot cheaper now.

Are we even getting new content this year? I know Kevin said that we're not getting a new zone this year. So far the only content I'm hearing about is the TG and Sheogorath quests, which seems pretty sparse.

We do have new content this year. We will have a stream in a few weeks to go a bit more in-depth. We have some new gameplay systems, more quests, new quality of life systems, a new trail, and adding solo dungeon variants of two existing dungeons. You'll hear/ see some of this stuff off in the coming weeks and coming months as things get to a semi-presentable state. That's for the teams to show off.

I watched the stream.

You’re releasing a tiny fraction of the content you used to release. Minuscule. Really.

And everything else is a base game update - that you used to be honest enough to call a base game update - masquerading as “new content”.

You’re gambling that new players will have enough to keep them occupied - but you’re offering nothing to those of us who’ve been here and kept you going all this time. It’s a shocker.

I'm pretty sure the stream in question is the one that will be on March 31st.

The stream is on March 31st. Also, update 49 replaced the usual dungeon cycle not the usual chapter model. 2 dungeons vs the Night Market isn't a tiny fraction. Update 50 is the one that would compare to the previous chapter updates.
