    You are completely correct in your observation of the "feel bad" that happens when someone who has paid for a cosmetic that sees it given away for free. Very simple solution is to give the player crown gems or seals of endeavors appropriate to the item's value.

    I have no issue with old crown rewards been given away, I have a fair few but I understand not everyone has a income to support micro transactions, if someone can get a mount or item that I may have paid for in the past, and it makes that person happy then power to us both for finding that enjoyment.

      @@mjlee8013 true but how would they compete with the store if better cosmetics could be earned for free? then people wouldnt spend the money. let me ask you, if you're a hardcore end gamer, what do you want as a reward? a skin or a mount? because end gamers are so serious about the gameplay mechanics and min maxing, they dont seem to enjoy anything anymore. theyve been here for years, so how to please them? it seems like its a better investment to cater to casuals and new comers who find any little reward special.

    Golden Pursuits looks interesting. My guess is that the prizes you saw on the PTS were placeholders, and the real rewards will be a mix of new and old items. And I'm gonna be the bad guy for a minute here and say that if some of the prizes end up being old crown store items that you already own, you shouldn't take it too hard. You apparently loved that item enough to shell out real money for it. You had it for so much longer than some other people did (for some players it's going to be completely new). It may be offered for free now, but that just means you get the week off lol. You don't have to bust your ass doing Golden Pursuits like everyone else, unless perhaps you want some of the secondary prizes. However, I would totally be in favor of players getting a consolation prize if the reward is a repeat for them, like Seals of Endeavor or Crown Gems, or maybe even a couple free crates.

    • @Moon-Reacher
      @Moon-Reacher Місяць тому

      I agree with you, as a long-time but recently-ish returning player I still don't have a lot of stuff that's now "old" to others. It's nice for new players too.
      I grinded Endeavors like hell for the one single apex mount I really love and have zero regrets about it. I'm glad I got to use it all this time, it's generated a lot of dopamine for me! 😂 If someone else gets it a little faster through this system, that's ok.
      But I also understand why people feel it's unfair. Like those who bought Wrothgar items only weeks or months before zos gave them away for free - that really sucks. I do think some alternative prize like Seals or something is a great idea.

    I agree with your criticisms - largely reskins and things that have already been in the crown store. Very unimaginative imo. I also am not a fan of them not being constantly in the game.
    I wouldn’t want a battle pass for the game unless it completely replaced the gambling crown crates - I’d prefer neither.
    Happy to see them adding more rewards into the game that are earnable, though, finally

  • @LemmyHQ
    @LemmyHQ Місяць тому +1

    I think it’s okay to put past or existing crown store or crown crate items, but I would make sure there is always a new exciting thing as the capstone reward. I wouldn’t even mind if they put that capstone reward in the crown store a few months later or something for those who missed out but giving endeavors for already collected items seems like the common sense choice for them to do. Great video!

    Like the look of this and basically a lift and shift from wows monthly trading post format which I much prefer to ESO endeavours since I can complete my monthly grind in a few hours and get a couple of mounts or lots of cosmetics each month.
    Endeavours require daily grinding and even then are really slow to get anything of “value” and the rewarding feeling is far too delayed. Having this will improve that and I’d like to think if it’s a hit they can revamp endeavours with this long term.

    I think they are trying to make a battle pass.
    Due to new in game currency laws.
    That's going in a couple of months. In 39 countries in the Eu, including the UK.
    No clue if USA is also implementing this law.
    Basically there are loads of new laws coming based around loot crates and currency. Like eso crowns and v-bucks. 😂😅

    I think giving new players, or players that couldn't afford it originally the ability to earn it is fair, thats not unheard of. They have been giving away full chapters and in the daily rewards that ppl once bought with either IRL money or Crowns so its really no different. I think having a "you already own this here is gems or endeavors" is a good option. I honestly think that cash in option should be on anything. I have so many mounts and pets I've got from crates that I don't want. I'd have rather cash them in and use the gems to buy stuff i actually want and would use.

    • @NinjaPulls
      @NinjaPulls  Місяць тому

      Hi, Kaan here! Order's Wrath + Briarheart isn't bad tbh! Briarheart's damage stats aren't especially strong (identical to Hunding's Rage) but if you don't have a decent Healer then the free self-heal can be handy. Should be enough to complete dungeons and get started in trials. Relequen (Cloudrest) is obviously excellent against single targets, and if you're sure you already have plenty of healing and sustain, then you could replace Briarheart with New Moon Acolyte (another crafted set) for stronger stats. But it will make sustain tougher, so tread carefully. Remember if you're on PC EU/NA and need a guild to learn and farm trials, you can join Ninja Pulls (Discord & in-game guild).

      @@BigAapes I'm hesitant to recommend anything without knowing the content or the groups you're with. But personally I would ditch Briarheart first unless you actually *need* the healing. Nirn and other proc sets are also situational - they don't necessarily work everywhere, whereas Order's is pure stats and will work in any situation. Finally, try to get a Medium trial set at some point with Minor Slayer - it's free damage!

    I really hope it doesn't turn out to be a requirement to complete the Pursuit(s) to do a PvP thing. I loathe PvP and absolutely refuse to do ANYTHING involving that even if it costs me Seals completion for that day/week. Some of us are quite happy to only do PvE, so don't penalize us for it. If I wanted to do PvP, I'd go to Imperial City (or another game entirely) to do that. It wounds my completionist heart to not have all the skyshards and achievements in Imperial City but I can't move past my utter loathing of PvP so it'll remain forever untouched on all my characters.

    Longtime MMO player here but I have only been playing ESO six months. I absolutely love the game but I have never played a game that I love this much but I’m so disgusted with the people that made it on a daily basis. Fake tanks is definitely high up on the list but by far the most egregious thing this game does is via the trade system. It’s a complete joke. Like I actually feel bad for people that don’t realize how insulting this is to quality of life. It is one of the most massive gold sinks I have ever seen in a game And such a pathetic attempt to make your game seem populated forcing players to travel all over the place if they want to try to find a specific item or a good deal. Like it’s actually disgusting. Bunch of insecure losers maybe if you had a good game it would be populated without you having to rape people of all their gold just to be able to sell something in a populated area.
