Remember The Elder Scrolls Online? I don’t, even though I reviewed it! While I admit I am not the biggest MMORPG fan, the game just didn’t grab me. Sure it was pretty to look at, but man were those bugs nasty. Still, there are those who love the game and are still playing it, and they will benefit from a loyalty program.
The loyalty program was announced on The Elder Scrolls Online page (via Polygon):
Starting in September, we’ll begin emailing all eligible paid subscribers about the first of our loyalty rewards. Every paid account that has been subscribed for three months (excluding game time included with your purchase of ESO and any additional complimentary game time) will receive a High Hrothgar Wraith vanity pet that will let you show your dedication to saving Tamriel wherever you adventure in-game. The loyalty program will keep expanding over time, so keep an eye out for more tokens of our gratitude if you’re a longtime player. Our next reward will be granted for those who have subscribed for six months—we’ll reveal it to you soon.
That’s right, you will earn a vanity pet for those three months of hard-earned money you spent on keeping your subscription active! I’m so jealous right now, I’m almost considering renewing my subscription. Thankfully, there is hope for the likes of me. I can still receive these loyalty rewards.
If you haven’t kept your subscription active, don’t worry. You’ll still be able to get the pets and other upcoming rewards once you meet the requirements. Stick with us, and you’ll have quite the collection to show off before long.
Alright fine, I know I sound bitter, and I’m not really going renew my subscription, but that sort of incentive to show off a players dedication is actually quite cool. I’m a sucker for cosmetics now (thanks to Dota 2) so I can appreciate a reward like that, even if it is just a digital item which can never be touched. What do you think? Do you still play The Elder Scrolls Online?

It’s a little something to say thanks to subscribers, it’s a nice idea.

Well, perhaps he “got it all” this morning?
As the ‘other’ half of the official Lagz power-couple, we have you to ‘thank’ for his chipper mood?

I’m taking its not. When it is naughty they will be all like “ADMIRAL CHIEF, BEHAVE! STOP BEING SO SLOW AND UNRESPONSIVE AND EXPENSIVE TO GAMING”

At least it won’t be complex. Then again, it probably won’t be smart either.

That’s worst case scenario where it takes after him, I’m hoping it’ll get my looks & brains though.

What’s it going to get from the Chief then? His mouse?

Only the name, can’t you read? It is Trevor and Rince’s baby!
I HAVE NO DNA INPUT THERE!!!

Oh, wait. I got all mixed up there.
So if it’s Rince we should expect a RROD at some stage during the kid’s lifecycle.

I’ve turned over a new leaf. To prove it I’ll say something nice about you.

I find that hard to believe
(the saying nice things to Rince, not the leaf business)

I did the beta.. and it was a good looking game.. but it never held my attention for long.

It’s probably easier when there’s only 4 people willing to pay for it.

I love this game, Played it every day for months now. Vanity pet is super lame though, mine wont get to see the light of day as it takes up a valuable inventory slot. The rewards for playing PVP are way way better, in game weopons,gold, AP etc. they also releasing a lot more content next month, even though I havent even finished a third of the current content.
Travis
August 25, 2014 at 11:41
And Im not so sure about no one willing to pay for it. At prime time is hard to even get into the PVP campaigns as they are full lately. Yes they did reduce the number of campaigns though, but there have been some amazing huge PVP batlles lately, AD dominating 🙂

People pay to play this? Like, they pay more money every month? Surely there are charities and things like that where your cash could be more beneficial?
Sure, it’s my own awful opinion. Still, yeesh.
