Tagging @TESOnline at this point in the hope my opinions might find the ear of someone prepared to listen (not aimed at curator of the twitter account, of course).
Question: how is this fair or reasonable?
Yes it& #39;s just fluff & not necessary to play the game, etc. But...

… part of your player base rly likes fluff & developing their characters. For me, I cannot justify spending money on crowns to buy crown crates in the hope I find sufficient duplicate items to convert to crowns to but a crown exclusive item. That would be irresponsible of me.
Usual caveat. I love this game. Love the hard work & care the devs put into making this such an overwhelmingly awesome experience. Not bashing them in any way. You& #39;re all cool. But the Crown Store has long been a shitty entity imo.
Limited time availability? Crown gem exclusive? & #39;Making space for more items& #39; & thus things removed from sale? Oh, come on. We& #39;re not stupid. This latest Crown Gem Exclusive tactic is an appalling move. Prob not for you, but what about the wider player base?
Here& #39;s the thing that really annoys me. The thing that matters most to me & hence this uncharacteristic rant:
What about those unable to afford ESO+ & get & #39;free& #39; crowns& #39;? Those unable to afford buying crowns to but rates to convert duplicates to generate gems, etc.?

How about you find a better, more honest, transparent and fair way for ALL players to obtain these (really cool) items you create instead of limiting them to those able to buy a crapload of crowns regularly? How about thinking about ALL of your player base?
