ENOUGH PETS ALREADY!!!!!!

Mopar63

Okay I get some people like the pets and collect them, that is all well and good but the loyalty reward should be something meaningful, or at least something more people would like. I now have two loyalty rewards and neither of them will ever get used by me because I hate the concept of a useless pet tagging along. Even the dog, a pet I might actually use, is basically nothing more than a dress item since it adds nothing to the ability of your characters.

Want to do some meaningful loyalty rewards, here are some ideas.

• Extra Character Slots
• Free Character rename
• Bag bag to give one character extra storage room
• Extra Bank Slots
• Special Dye Colors

This is just a few ideas that I think pretty much everyone would love to see. We appreciate the effort to do the loyalty program but please, for all that is holy, enough pets!

The pets are fun but I agree 100%, if you're going to "reward" players for loyalty, give them something they can use in-game that will actually help continue said loyalty.

It IS nice to be rewarded for loyalty. But it's only a reward if it's something we actually WANT. In a perfect world we'd have like 3 items to choose from, one of which would be a vanity pet, and 2 other "fluff" items. Then we'd have to actually choose one and download it. If we didn't like any of them we could skip it and not have it taking up mail or bank space like my TWO current rewards do. SIGH. If it HAS to be fluff I'd prefer a costume or an emote.

100% on board with this. Take Tera for example, the pets in the game actually do stuff. Some give inventory space, some are auto loot. Why can't pets in this game do different things besides just looking pretty?

Sandmanninja

And give them an unfair advantage over someone who has just discovered ESO? You guys don't know about game balance.

OP: If you don't like pets, delete them. They've already said they are working on something so it won't take up bag space.

I like pets.

Thanks ZOS!

BBSooner

I like the pet

I also appreciate that a loyalty reward (a reward that requires no effort to obtain) is pure vanity and provides no advantage.

I'm also to the point where I kind of hope the next reward is another pet, because it's kind of amusing reading threads how people go insane over a completely unimportant free item.

Evergnar

Meh, I'm ok with things like extra bank/bag space in addition or in place of pets but agree with @Sandmanninja that you don't want to give players an unfair advantage.

Zos has already said are they working on slots for pets, trophies and such. They also said they've heard our suggestions on other things besides pets for loyalty rewards so they are listening at least.

I like the idea of an extra character slot too as someone who has subbed for a long time might be running out of available characters to build.

ers101284b14_ESO

I agree we need wayyyy more pets!!!! Cmon ZOS we need pets for our pets!

OrangeTheCat

I like pets too. Just give us a special inventory to store them.

ramasurinenpreub18_ESO

Yeah, grand, and this new dwarven sphere makes noise *constantly*. Thanks for that Zenimax.

Back to muting the sound in the bank again.

ZOS can we please have a UI toggle to turn off everyone else's pets on our screens now? Please?

Ysne58

So far I have 4 pets.

Moonshadow66

I agree with the OP, but I only could say that we have "enough pets" when the Guar is coming without the plush and the shipping cost which doubles the price for me here in Germany.. Isn't it enough already that, per year, I pay 1 monthly fee more than Americans?!

brandon

I like the pets a lot and would be fine with getting more, but i wouldn't mind having other loyalty rewards in between pets if it will keep others happy. Keep pets as a loyalty reward though please Zenimax.

Xjcon

You just can't please everyone.......I like the idea of something useful for a reward. I've deleted more vanity items then I can think of.

yodased

You understand you just created a thread on a public forum complaining about the quality of free things given to you right?

It's free. If you don't like it,thats fine, don't use it, but seriously complaining about the temperature of free water is a tad crass.

Just my .02

Just wait for housing so we all have our little pet farm ^^

I couldn't agree more. Which is why, every single time I open my in-game mail and there's a new vanity pet waiting to reward me for this or that, I smile.

Then I delete it.

Thanks, ZOS!!

This would be really awesome.

Miyamoto

Some of you would whine about having to pay taxes if you won the lottery.

Get a grip. You already have an advantage over new players from being higher level, more experience with game world/mechanics, a massive headstart on crafting ability, etc, and you want even more advantage... for what? For paying the sub fee that everyone has to pay?

Get over yourselves. Seriously.

Special dye color. OK.

All the rest. No. Whatever they give should be cosmetic only. Pets. Dyes. Costumes.

Kartalin

Some of those listed, such as bag space, bank space, or character slot, are too significant for a loyalty award, but I agree that just pets over and over again is already played out. I like the idea of a loyalty dye, though. And a character rename shouldn't be a big deal either.

Wouldn't it be nice if the pets at least had some small passive buff? Like the Ice Wraith could give a slight resistance to cold for instance.

Never look a gift horse in the mouth.

Why claim a different gift and not just shrug it off. Did you ever make such a fuss on Christmas eve?

Rumba1

I think they should award a costume piece.

A Cape would be nice, with a different pattern/color for each stage of loyalty reward. You could then easily recognize who has been in-game longer (if they want to advertise it).

wont get substantially in the way in combat, tidy's up the city environment with fewer small things running around.

Erock25

I don't care if our loyalty rewards are fluff, but for *** sake give us the secondary pet/trophy inventory that you mentioned adding before hand. This stuff is just deleted garbage until my pets don't take up valuable inventory space.

We are not talking about char boosts, server entry preferences (if we ever get queues again) or some other stuff like Heirlooms (wows way).

A simple increase of the inventory or another char slot doesn't hurt anyone and new players will get these type of things as well once they were subbed for a few months.

In other games loyalty rewards actually had a massive impact like at SWTOR, or EQ Next & some other up & coming MMOs, nobody seems to care about that but if ESO would add something that doesn't even give an advantage and everyone will get over time, its wrong again.

Flynch

Seriously - just give us a pet-leash every 3 months that we can use on the creature of our choice and have that creature be our pet. That way it remains balanced, we get the pets we want, and more people are happy. Or maybe that's just me.

Beotor

ZOS already work on a Collection-System for pets

global_gbb16_ESO

Another loyalty "reward" in the form of a virtual pet that takes up an inventory slot.

Yay.

Black_Wolf88

totally agree. been against pets from the beginning. most useless and annoying thing in game after all the lag in cyrodiil.

Sighlynce

I hear ya, but honestly I can't wait till I get home tonight so I can run my dwarven sphere through Avanchnzel just to see how many players try and whack it for scrap !
