Twitch Rewards Are a Step In The Right Direction.

Eso is now in the radar for twitch. Games like fortnite became popular with twitch and we may bring potential new blood with this publicity. However, currently the rewards are subpar and after a while when the rewards lose their luster people will watch less frequently, thus viewership will decline pretty soon.
How to improve them:
Add popular items obtainable in previous crown crate seasons such as the dro mathra senche, hero costumes, dwemer shades, along with the chance to obtain previously unobtainable holiday costume dyes to be used on our outfits. Maybe add a twitch token system that we can earn in these rewards that we can use to purchase purple twitch themed mounts and pets.
Get console up in this action asap, they have potential to up the viewership
Keep the rewards available for all streamers, don't remove the rewards from the less known streamers after Tuesday.

sounds like you are content with not receiving free stuff. Twitch rewards in its current state is to entice the viewer check out a game, and its a good opportunity to get players to get into eso but in its current incarnation it isn't worth viewing it. No impovements suggested from your post aside form its bad isn't really helpfulEdited by Aliyavana on May 18, 2018 6:40PM0 -

✭✭✭Best way to get someone in game is to offer them a change to play, not by watching an ad!
And lets be fair ZoS Marketing dept. believe that opening a box to see a green bottle appear is enthralling game play, removing that is a vast improvement and nothing a better reward
at least you dont have to mark it as junk and then find a vendor to carry on playing having freed up the wasted inventory slots

There's no ad to be watched. You get drops from watching someone play or making a direct purchase for a crate.Edited by ManwithBeard9 on May 18, 2018 6:48PM0 -

They don't say what drops outside the crate. Just that they crate is a possible drop. The twitchchat badges and emotes are only for purchases for an ESO twitch crate, which has the crown crate in it.0 -
Aesthier✭✭✭✭✭Lets be honest here, anything with the word crown crate is a trigger word and no one likes anything with a chance to get you what you want instead of getting what you want directly. Twitch rewards is a step in the right direction but the way they are implemented will cause a lot of salt among the community. Currently there is only apex rewards and a common reward with only apex mounts and consumables and the gap of rarity will generate anger. Suggestions on how to improve them. Add items from all crown crate seasons. Earning them for free would help generate viewership of eso if there is something worthwhile Guaranteed.
Create four tiers of items:
apex tier there should be new twitch exclusive mounts such as a purple dro mathra senche reskin and some more purple themed items (as to go with the theme of twitch) and should be a guaranteed drop for watching eso live, with a lower chance of coming from other streams
Free crown crates with the same percentage to drop good items as the crates from the store is enough.
I do however like your idea that different types of crown crates can be run through at different times just like the store does it.
I am completely against making any particular item from any crown crates a "guaranteed drop" as that goes beyond the chance that normal consumers of the crates get and should not be used in the promotion of a specific company or medium other than the crown store itself.
^ It is that sort of thing that will make me drop my subscription and the game as I have done with other games that began to use this sort of biased practice.
Before they begin guaranteeing drops through some other medium they better come out with those specific items for straight transfer of crowns on their own store; otherwise, its straight RNG like everyone else receives.

Beginning on May 21, should you make any ESO purchase via the Games on Twitch store and have a linked ESO account, you'll receive a free Twitch Crate. This crate contains one fun ESO-themed Twitch emote (with eight available in total), an Ouroborus Twitch Chat Badge, and a single Welkynd Ouroboros Crown Crate.
Doesn't say that the badges come only from the bought crates tho, says you can buy something and receive a free crate. Its a free crate and so it would make sense that crates you can get from streams also have those badges0 -

Why?
(seriously, how do people who watch games instead of playing them, help game companies? But, then, I'm one of those weird old-timers who doesn't understand the attraction/purpose of streaming & esports to start with. How the %$#@ people actually earn money at this silliness is beyond me. Sign of the decline of civilization, along with 'social media'. /oldmanyellsatcloud)4 -

People can watch sports instead of playing them, so it can be applied like that . People who watch sports support a brand just like how watching streamers helps popularize games like fortnite. I fail to understand how this shows the decline of civilization considering both young and old generations have things that can be argued as declining0 -

The Twitch crates you buy have them emotes and a crown crate. The crown crate doesn't have the emotes. The emotes could also be in the drop pool with the crown crate (not the Twitch crate).0 -
Rain_Greyraven✭✭✭✭✭I love threads where folks act like they speak for everyone.....
many of us are perfectly fine with the Twitch rewards...
looks like the 15-20 perpetually outraged are going through the bargaining period of the 7 stages of tantrums.Edited by Rain_Greyraven on May 19, 2018 12:36AM"Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split, as a general thing.”

✭It's all a bit messy and confusing for me. Freebies are great, but why don't they just give you a chance to win something that's already either in the crown store or been in crown crates? That way, those who don't want to bother with twitch wont moan about exclusive mounts and people still get the chance at free stuff, which I'm sure we all love. Forgive me if I'm talking out my jacksie, I rarely watch streams and am not familiar with how Twitch works yet so I could be missing the point. I will say that it's not really a draw for me, because it's just more RNG, and RNG absolutely HATES me.PC EU & NA0 -
President_PUG✭✭✭I'm continually baffled by what people expect from something that is offered for free.
i.e.
Free work vehicle just needs TLC.
People in the 2018's response...Is it a Lamborghini or Porsche?
Free Crates in game.
People in the 2018's response..Is it a Lamborghini or Porsche?
It's like the $15 a month supposed to provide $1500 worth gifts.
Seem's the attitude is..give me give me give me....
The workers at ESO don't need to get paid, they are jacking Me anyway.
How come?
Serious I know America is a Free Country, but Jeez...“Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better.”0 -

Yes you can. Got a crate the other day and it contained consumables as promised, tripot, poisons, xp scroll, mimic stone. Turned the tripot and poisons in for gems.0 -

Oh. Well, they suddenly sound interesting now. Hmm, watching twitch for crown crates. This is going to be different.
