I like how rather than try to make your point you just insult me by calling me stupid. That's a sign that A. You feel threatened, and B. You've run out of excuses about why your point is right. And I'm not even going to touch the "PC and consoles are so different comment!"

Now unlike you I'll continue making my point. They do need console gamers, more an more gamer have gone to console gaming or never played games on the PC at all. They need them especially if they want to compete with WoW and GW2. They need a new audience to keep the market fresh and console players who love Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim and other single player RPGs are the perfect target and not having a subscription will draw them in and having a shop similar to GW2 where most of the stuff is cosmetic in nature will help them make more profit and allow for the development of new content.

Also people who are playing WoW aren't likely to leave until WoW dies eventually, but they can get GW2 who might be casual players looking for a new experience by making it where they don't have to waste money on a subscription that could be used to buy other products (maybe even Skyrim and the DLCs which some people will probably do if they're new to the series after playing TES:O and enjoy the lore).
