This sums it pretty much up for me "It seems almost like a “damned if you do, damned if you don’t scenarioâ€. If you offer great exclusives people will complain that not everyone gets them, if you offer lame exclusives people will accuse you of exploiting or nickel-and-diming your customers." ESO isn't the first MMO with a p2p system which had a premium edition with a mount. One of those I remember was RIFT and there the community wasn't upset with it. I really have the feeling that a big part of the ESO community is a extremly whiny croud.
