    Loyalty Program

    Later this week, you’ll find out more about our Loyalty Program, a new feature that will give you special in-game rewards for spending your time subscribed to ESO. It will start out relatively small, with an Ice Wraith vanity pet that you can obtain, but we’ll be expanding it over time to include more items we think you’ll really love. Everyone will know if you’re really a veteran player! Stay tuned for details.

    As long as I still qualify for keeping my "subscription" active since Early Access via game-time cards, then I'm cool with it I guess.

    I'll show Zenimax my loyalty when they show me theirs by actually communicating with player concerns, something they have promised to do better but have yet to deliver upon.

    Subscription? So the game time cards don't count? Dang it, I was gonna cancel sub in November and come back later with game time cards.

    Anyway, if you want to show Appreciation for Loyalty, then give the existing players the same incentives you give new purchasers.

    I saw one of those Wolfhounds yesterday in Coldharbor, he was all alone too. Really like the texturing and modeling on that dog.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    As someone who was planning on maintaining my subscription anyway, this is fine with me. It doesn't affect my thinking at all when it comes to "will I or won't I stay subscribed" to be honest. If I get something I like from it, that's fine with me.

    I just want the rewards to be LORE FRIENDLY! Hunreds of Ice Wraiths pets running around do not sound LORE FRIENDLY to me. I rather have a few "free" days added to my sub or forum badges or may be a cool title ingame instead of pets. THE MOST IMPORTANT POINT TO KEEP IT LORE FRIENDLY!

    yea the ice wraith thing seems stupid, and trivializing a rather cool mob.

    I can't wait until I can have a baby dragon pet. ^______^

    Additional game time bonus sounds good
    like one week free game times for 3 months sub, 2 weeks for 6 months, and a month for one year sub.

    Though I highly doubt that'll ever happen.

    I have to agree on the pet thing. I'd like it to be lore friendly as well. But I have an even bigger fear: The problems with the pet (including sorceror companion) collision!
    Many new pets = many new players with pets out = banks and other places where you almost can't turn around :s

    Please ZOS, turn off collision for *all* pets and companions! (at least in towns or banks!)

    it's a bug, they are working on it.

    Anyway, what about actual physics? Wouldn't Ice Wraiths simply melt on the sunny beaches of, say, the Summerset Isles? Will we see characters being followed by ambulatory puddles of water?

    Questions upon questions... :P

    What's lore-unfriendly about a summoned ice wraith?

    They are powerfully and smart critters. Some might even go as far they are form of "people" in many aspects. It is short like having an Nord NPC as pet. The term "pet" kind of imply that like dogs or Guar Level of smarts, Ice Wraiths are a step or two about that. Argonians or Khajiit or other races (besides Dunmer) players should not have a "slave" as a pet.

    Well, your average Nord has the brains of a mudcrab, and we can have mudcrab pets, so...

    What makes you think they're smart? I've never seen any indication that ice wraiths are any more intelligent than skeevers or other animals.

    Seconding this. They're basically wisps but ice, I wouldn't even consider them sentient.
