To all those folk that are yelling about more pets being put in a game with issues...something like this will, I suspect, have been worked on for quite some time. Cosmetic or not.

So no one has said, "Oh gosh I am tired of fixing issues...Imma gonna go make some guar pets!!" They would have been working on these things for a long, long time.

Now give me a huge silt stider so I can send it stomping some people...yeah that would be awesome *goes to dreamland.*

Absolutely. It's not like they launched on 4/4 then started work on Craglorn, or pets, on 4/5. All this kind of content, and others, have been in development for quite some time.

Sure they can work on other projects, but what does it look like to us with problems when they design cash shop items, and bring them out before theyve fixed issues from beta?

I guess the money being spent on this vanity garbage is more important than fixing what is already released. What a bunch of ( ! )clowns.

It's something that could wait a while. I mean who knows what they will break when they release this stuff, they could screw up so badly that it would make the game totally...oh wait, we're pretty close to that, hold that thought.

I want a pet mammoth that i can take to the bank with me while i spam healing spells ...

Oh yeah, trust me, I'm not happy. I am seriously questioning ZOSs dev team priorities. Actually, I've given up trying to understand them. I was just saying, some people seemed to think, any of of these MMOs for that matter, that release end game content prior to fixes carry on as though the devs started the new content the day after launch. More than likely, this "new" content was probably intended for launch, but just wasn't ready in time.

It looks like different teams work on different parts of the game? Or did you mean what does that look like to people who can't use the rational half of their brain?

Also, what issues from beta? I was in a number of the betas. I don't see any of the issues we had still going.

Well when it happens then I will decide if I want to be pissed about it. I'm not going to go get my panties in a bunch before then.

I agree that they shouldn't bring out cash shop items before the game is in a better place as far as bugs. If they bring out cosmetic items that you can get through gameplay, that's fine, as that's something that some of the player base will like a lot so it's just improving the game for those people. Bringing out cash shop items, on the other hand, would look way more like a cash grab than a legitimate attempt to improve the game for anyone. I'm OK with cash shop items (within reason - there's a fine line to tread with them) when the game is relatively bug-free. I'm not OK with them at this time.

SFBryan18 · July 2014

These items are already in the game. They were made with the vanilla game. It's not new content, but stuff that hasn't been released yet. There's a big difference between new content such as the veteran map that they already released, and content that is already there and just needs to be unlocked. I'm sick of seeing these beta monkeys everywhere and not having a cool pet of my own. It's totally unfair. Sure I have a the Guar, but it's ugly and so is the mudcrab. I just want what already exists. Seriously, if you look at my created thread history, I almost quit this game when I found out that they gave monkeys to beta testers and nothing equal to everyone else. It's ***. I even opened a support ticket requesting a monkey and they denied it on the grounds that it would not be fair to beta testers. Well then make something similar so we can all have nice things! I hate feeling punished just because I decided to wait for news about consoles.

There better be a Frog among those new pets if they are really coming!

Sarmoung · July 2014

Good thing the devs are busy with pets, instead of fixing the bugs. Ugh...

By no means does that mean it's coming soon. There's tons of stuff on ESOhead that not only may not be coming soon, but might not ever end up being used.

coincidently those are some of the actions you can make in a very naughty mmo.

petting the grey dog is definitely slang, afk checking the urban dictionary.

Just saw a guy with a pet cat, and then he switched to a pet dog. I asked him how he got it, and he said he knows a guy who tests stuff on twitch, and that these pets would be coming out next month. I can't wait to get that cat!

Yes. Please give us virtual pets because it is such a staple in TES.

No, just no. My wife loves frogs and she plays only on consoles, so if there would be frog pet I'd have to buy her PS4 so that she could run around with pet frog. Too expensive imo...

Enodoc · July 2014

I hope that some (or indeed, most) of these would be available in-game somehow as quest rewards or random encounters, like how you get Meeko or the Stray Dog in Skyrim.

Also, Pet Fox please.

Katanawraith · July 2014

Since the start of the game I have wanted a hunting animal pet. The Senche Tigers appeal, but Wolves, Bears, Spiders also appeal. I know there are those that do not wish this to happen, but as a soloist I would love to have a companion pet that battles with me. Also as a side bar, I would love to be able to set up a campfire to do in the field cooking, resting up etc. Hope you Zen devs see this post.

I would list exactly ZERO of those as companion pets. They all look cosmetic.

i would love a small pet mirror image of my character to help me in pvp

who ever clicked "awesome" on my post and comment " i thank you"

being that we nightblades have a "shade" he realy does not do enough damage to help us so, i think it would be very helpfull for us nightblades to get a mirror image character pet of ourself to help us do more damage and help us survive longer in pvp.
in Oblivion single player game there was a quest we did that we fought a mirror image of ourself and when we beat it we won a prety nice Long Blade, so, i know it's very easy to make and very posible to do on the developers side.

Google fails to come up with a single entry for that .. unsurprising really when most 'urban dictionaries' are the figment of teenagers' imaginations because they want to be 'different', while being exactly the same.

forget pets, I want a pack guar

Tigers, wolves, bears & spiders would fit in nicely with a new class (Ranger) for the purposes of having a animal fighting companion. Vanity pets just follow us around.

:sadface: Tried to make my nightbow with the idea of a ranger (mostly bow abilities). Le sigh.
