I felt more valued before 1.6... We are currently in the longest drought of ESO content and still have a month or two before anything new comes. It honestly amazes me that the Imperial City is STILL not out.

A month or two?
Better double or triple this...
Console release is in June, so surely we won't get any content before that and they will be busy roughly 2 months to fix bugs for consoles... so I won't expect any new content (aka zones, dungeons, trials, pvp additions) until August/September (4-5 months)... and that's even something I'd call optimistic.

Its only the deceptive f2p games that are effectively subscription only games that make an effort to make you feel valued.
Eso is different:
- Buying the box makes you feel valued because if you buy the box, there will be no gameplay restrictions.
- Buying crowns makes you valued, because if you pay for these, you can claim items out of the crown store at your choosing.
If you want to feel special for subscribing this game is not it.. They're not trying to twist you into thinking that subscribing is special.. ESO IS B2P, there is 0 effort pretending to be otherwise, which is exactly why you don't feel valued.

Ya, but I don't think Crown sales are exactly skyrocketing either.
Most of the crown store stuff you're seeing in game are from people who had long-term subs that got crowns for buying the box, subbing first month, and the whopping 100 crowns per month for past subscribers.
I'm guessing the loss in subs after boing to B2P is 100 times higher than what they are seeing in crown sales.

Edit: Please explain your thoughts below so the poll doesn't sink.
I've also unsubbed.
Been a member since November 2013. Yep, 2013.
Subbed continually since pre-release. Pre-ordered the Imperial Edition w/ Adventurer Pack (which we were told was a limited time release.. just like the Senche I guess....).
Had high hopes for this game. Especially when they said they were going with a sub model because that was the only way to provide the quality game they wanted and keep up with the content updates they wanted.
Well..unfortunately, none of it was true. The only content we've seen in a year is Craglorn, which was actually supposed to be included at launch but got delayed.
They had promised Theives Guild and Dark Brotherhood by 1.3. Never happened.
They showed off Imperial City and Osirim at Quake Con last year, saying they were close to release. Never happened.
They promised us Justice System with PvP. PvP part never happened, what we got was half baked "max out your stealing every day to get a sneak cost reduction" system.
They promised us massive PvP battles with 100's of players on screen at a time. Never happened.. now the server is brought to it's knees with 2 raid groups, fully desynching damage and crashing/disconnecting many people. Lag in PvP has only gotten worse since 1.4.
We were told by Matt Friror they wanted to go with a sub model because they felt that advertising to players while they were in the middle of playing went against what ZoS was trying to accomplish. Apparently that mentality didn't last as they are now abusing the broadcast system to spam messages about limited time mounts in the store.
Then they flat out lie to us and tell us they couldn't use in-game mail to notify people about the mount. Even though they have no problem using in-game mail for loyalty rewards just short time ago.
I guess this is what console gamers have to look forward to.
I honestly think ZOS is just trying to push the console edition out to make a few bucks before shutting the servers down. Because the path they are on does not seem like the path a long-term MMO would take.
I hope your seeing this zos looks like subs are drying up.
No.
I don't feel 'as' valued as I should be. I understand it's a new system but I think it should be better.
I don't want it to become "Pay to Win" but;
5) Horse skill refresh every 8-10 hours instead of 20.

I missed a screenie of the English version, but fortunately ZoS was kind enough to spam it again 5 seconds later in French, then German. This was from a few days ago, if there have been more since, I don't know, but here ya go:
In English, the message read "Add the Senche-Leopard to your mount collection, today! Only available in the Crown Store (press ",") until 4/20."
Context:
No, I feel that I am not valued as a subscriber due to:
• cross-screen spam messages...
The lack of professionalism is what bothers me with that. There's a massive number of creative and even artistic ways of pulling it off, but they went with a very poor method. Just plain lazy.
• continued lag...
The reason this bothers me is that I do not see the money I put into the game being used to improve it.
• lack of new content...
This bothers me when I see development promises made over a year ago still not being worked on. Gives the impression that every penny I sink into ZOS is going right into making the console version, a version I will never be playing, and not into the version I do play. I can expect that if ZOS goes to Quakecon this year, it will be the exact same presentation as Quakecon 2014. I find the division of builds between three platforms will severely handicap their ability to produce more content in a timely manner, and the PC version being a continued test bed for future builds, continually keeping the PC build in a lower quality state (buggy, laggy, less responsive, etc.) than the consoles.
•and a feeling that my feedback isn't valued or heard...
I know they hear me, I've been loud enough too warrant them pushing the mute button on the remote. My issue is I don't think I'm being heard or valued by the people that make the decisions, the guys pulling the strings. Pretty sure the people busting their asses to work on the game can hear me just fine, though whether they value that is entirely subjective. I don't presume just because I have an opinion that it is valid, correct, or even worthy taking note of, nor do I require it to be perceived as such. I'm not entitled to be heard, I'm not entitled to be valued, but I am entitled to my opinion...and that opinion prefers to be valued and heard
