Seperate subscription required for eso on Xbox. PC sub will not work for xbox too.

No I understood perfectly. I would expect to work exactly like this ... what you are describing is what I want.

Try this in your scenario. You have a toon on US and you want to now play on EU starting a new toon with friends that just startes. They tell you to buy another $60 box and pay another .. different subscrption just for play on the EU. So now you bought
2 boxes and pay $30 a month to keep both active., even though you can only play on one at a time. That is what they are doing with xbox.

Now ask yourself how many ppl with pc and xbox will buy into that. Little to none for certain. If we already had a sub for pc and it allowed xbox access many of would buy another box and play there too.

IMO they are losing business and xbox server will suffer greatly because of this as no one with a capable PC will touch the xbox server now, many of us want to but waiting 2 extra months and paying double, yeah that is not happrning.

You mean the FF14 that bombed epically and had to be almost totally reworked? The new version has been out for what, 6 months? Give it some time and it will certainly fail. SE needs to recoup millions from the first release on top of having the game run
at a profit currently. That's asking a lot of a genre that's falling apart, specifically subscription based mmos. To make it worse lots of fans went back to FF11 or never made the jump in the first place. If FF14 is still doing well in another 6 months it'll
be a miracle.

You're misunderstanding what I'm saying.

You create a character on the American servers and your character is "bound" to that server.

If you have a bunch of buddies in Europe who say "Hey, come and play a game with us" you must pay to have your character moved to that server.

If you then decide you're worried about latency and want to move back to an American Server no problem... as long as you pay... again.

Different character lists for different servers are to be expected. I would not expect to play the same toon on 2 servers ever. But most people make more than one toon, lots enjoy more than one server.

This would be the equivalent of them charging $15 for US and $15 for EU.

If they treated console servers as regions like they are for EU, I would be happy but the point is they are not.

If you think it's bad that you can't move your account from the Xbox ONE to the PC to the PS 4... wait until you finally deside which Platform you want to play on...

And then discover you have to pay to move your character from the American Server to the European Server because Bethesda made a big noise that you can play with your buddies anywhere in the world but were really quiet about the fact that they will charge
you to do so.
