This game starts to become dumb

Premium tomes battlepass + bonuses and with eso + Items shoud be free in premium tab or 50 % off.
Now it feels like i need to pay 2 times and then pay ingame for the already payed stuff.
This is so dumb.
You literaly could make the normal stuff be like it is, but if you payed premium + eso+ +bonuses. the premium tab shouldnt cost nothing or 50% off,only needs to be unlocked....
I talked with lots of friends and they think the same and half of them wont renew this month eso +.

Sorry for the rant, but this is stupid.

    I noticed this too. I am already subbed this month, but it acts like I need to sub again for the premium rewards to unlock? That can't be right. Giving them some time to straighten things out. I won't buy another sub for this month when I already have...

    It's not another subscription. It's a battle pass. It's separate from your sub. You're paying 15 dollars for the ability to earn points to unlock rewards on maybe 8 to 10 pages of the pass. Yes you're paying 15 bucks but the rewards are decent. The free pass also has some decent rewards, so you can interact with the system and not pay.

    Ah, so I get nothing from the tomes rewards for being subbed. Other than the freebies

    Ok so for being subbed you get, for each month starting in January, a token. It's in your currency tab. When you have 12, you trade it for a free season premium plus tome.

    Ok maybe if i would pay 15 Euros pls eso ok i understand . but if i buy premium batlepas + bonus + eso + , that stuff then needs to be free or atleast half priced

    I understand that part. I just thought a sub meant access to the premium rewards. Like the 14.99 sub was access to premium rewards and 29.99 sub was access to premium plus. It would have been nice to have more incentive to sub, but oh well xD

    I too think the sub has been devalued.

    How is this different than paying for the Chapter, which only would get added to ESO+ the following year? The pass individually is cheaper than the Chapter, but I do wonder about Season 1 and Season 2 on if the pass will be the same price despite having a shorter runtime. Spending 12 points to unlock a premium pass seems great if the passes are yearly (or even twice a year), but with up to 4 times a year, requiring 12 points to upgrade doesn't feel right.

    Because the tomes only include cosmetics and optional content that normally would have been in endeavors, daily login rewards, or the crown store.

    When they get around to launching actual stuff that would normally have been in a chapter, like the night market, you wont have to pay for that.

    You are not required to buy into the premium part of the tomes.

    Fallout 1st subscription unlocks the premium rewards on the season pass for 76. I always sub to it for the duration of the season for that game

    Access to the Premium items on the battle pass should of been included free with ESO subscription. That would of increased the value of ESO+ now that it's worth had been slipping.

    Then if they wanted to make more money just sell a skip everything tome that unlocks all items instantly and gives you all the seals and tomes up front.

    I'm not paying for anything beyond what I get for subscribing. I have supported the game with my subscription for years now, and a very rare crown purchase, and that is enough for me.

    No cosmetic is enough for me to pay a lot extra for.
