I don't understand this philosophy either.
I think pets should be only for those that purchased the DLC with Crowns (you get enough Crowns being Subscribed anyway).
Or at the very least, make it so that for each Subscribed month or two, you get a reward.
Not my experience. When I was subbed none of the DLC showed as being able to be purchased. Regardless it doesnt matter. They are paying just like people who buy the DLC are paying. They should not be forced to buy the DLC and pay for plus as well simply to get a pet. Thats just ludicrous.

Being subscribed for 2 months is enough to get 3000 crowns, which means you are able to purchase any DLC you want. You are not paying extra. It's the same as buying DLCs separately right from the start.
The fact is that if a player has Subscribed for one month, he shouldn't be getting all the rewards at once. If there are 4 DLCs out already, he shouldn't be getting 4 rewards just being subscribed to ESO for one month. He should be Subscribed to ESO 4-8 months to get all the 4 rewards, or he can always purchase the DLCs separately and get them immediately.
It just wouldn't be fair to award the players so good for a measly one month of subscription (13€). Especially not when there are players that have been subscribed for much longer. The most loyal players won't be happy about that.

I think you are confusing "facts" with your opinion on how things should work. Both are paying customers and both should have access to the same rewards.

I'm not confusing anything. Speding 80€ for 4 DLCs is not the same as spending 13€ for 1 month of ESO+.
You do the math and tell me how is that the same?
Also from a business perspective, that's a very bad managment. There is no incentive to Sub if you get all the rewards subbing just 1 month. I have no doubt starting with TG or DB they will address this and change it accordingly.

I think tying the rewards to the DLC is a nice solution, but I do agree that it can lead to future problems with someone subscribing for a month ($15) to get the vanity pets from a good number of DLCs and then unsubbing. That's a lot of "rewards" for only $15. However, how many people would actually do that, since if they unsubbed, they'd lose access to all the DLC and would just have the vanity pets to show for it. Granted, some might do this, but I don't expect a lot would.

Not necessarily. In order to receive the reward, you have to complete the achievement first (it's as simple as walking into the area, but still a step you have to take).
I have never understood the appeal of vanity pets, but to each his own. I would ban them in Cyrodiil because I can't imagine that they help with lag or frame rates, though.
You know… you talk and criticize like you know what you are talking about, but I feel like you didn't read the article or play the PVP part of the game AT ALL.I have never understood the appeal of vanity pets, but to each his own. I would ban them in Cyrodiil because I can't imagine that they help with lag or frame rates, though.
Anyway, I would like to see some variety to the loyalty rewards. Instead of a pet every time, how about a costume, dye set, or mount? I'm not looking for anything that will give an advantage in PVE or PVP, but something to recognize that people play the game differently and value different aspects of character.
I am sorry if I make this sound angry, @Delegator, but I do feel that as a principle, if you are going to criticize the contents of the article this forum thread is about, the least you could do is read it thoroughly. I have myself failed to do this in the past and will sometimes keep doing so in the future, so I can't go by example. But it would be nice at any rate.
