Me to bro, haters gonna hate.

Making it so that one entire race is only available to a select few instead of the entire player base is a bad idea. It's like the half-elf comment earlier.

Because I can't preorder or afford the special edition, I can't play a race I normally always play as in the previous 1 player games.

This ruins the game for me, meaning that's one less person who's gonna buy it. I know I'm not the only one in this hole. This is gonna cost them some customers.

Hopefully they'll figure this out, and make the Imperials availble somewhere further down the line.

AtlanTES will sink just like TORtanic did. The only MMO that looks like it might be decent at the moment is Wildstar, but even that's iffy.

This exclusive pre-order race made me genuinely laugh and I'm glad I never bought into the hype.

Shit is pretty stupid, locking everyone else out of playing a certain race etc.

Hopefully they'll "pull an EA" who basically gave out the BF3 Karkand map to everyone who signed up to "premium" despite people paying extra for the collector's/premium edition box.

Again though, we're a dying generation of gamers... youngsters out there from WoW onwards are used to this shit now and it won't stop them buying it :/

A whole lot of the complaints about ESO (not just here on this forum) have been about the subscription. I think people are getting too used to not having to pay. A lot of the complaints about the imperial edition have been about either not wanting to pay or not able to pay.

And let's face it, $64 is not out of the ballpark when it comes to videogame prices. The average game now is what, $50-$60? (I paid $60 for BF4) So for $64 I get the game, my favorite TES race, the ability to play any other race in any faction, a mount, some useless pets, 5 treasure maps, two rings that give me and a friend extra XP when adventuring together, 5 days early access and $15 for the first month of play.

Or I can be a cheapass and say "wah I don't want to pay, everything should be free, I don't even want to pay a subscription".
