ESO doesn't need a sub but you do need to buy the game. Their sub service is pretty good though, you get all the expansions for free and $15 (the price of the sub) worth of the premium currency.
although if you want to engage with the crafting system at all in ESO the subscription is basically mandatory provided you don't want to see every single inventory space you know and love on every single character filled up with hundreds of different crafting materials
I just fill up my chests with crafting materials I can't easily replace and wait for ESO+ free trials to shove it all in the craft bag to free up the space again.

True, the lack of a crafting bag is bullshit and does essentially lock you out of the system.

I'm not running out of bone any time soon.
You get all the DLC for free but the latest chapter is always behind a paywall.
It usually doesn't go to ESO+ availability until the next big one comes out.
