Golden Pursuits minor UI bug

NeoniKa · November 19

I already completed all objectives from Golden Pursuits (mainly motivated to reset the yellow button), I also collected all rewards. So, it's all done, I have nothing more to complete for the Golden Pursuits, but unfortunately the button remains highlighted for no reason on the menu:

Yes, and on PS5, the words "You've earned a Golden Pursuit reward! CLAIM REWARD" remains emblazoned across the screen even after you have claimed the rewards.

Work around... you must re-log to remove the words from your screen.

Also, even after you have completed the Golden Pursuit, the words ACTIVITY FINDER on your menu list remain golden even after claiming the rewards. Not sure if this was actually intended.

However, I like the Golden Pursuits. It is a nicely rounded list of activities which you can complete with relative ease.

Now I always remember which one is activity, which one is friends. Thank goodness. Those icons drive me nuts.

Something is definitely wrong with the UI for Golden Pursuits, maybe it's not such a minor thing after all. I already completed all the objectives yesterday and also collected the rewards, however, the button in the menu remains yellow and when I logged in today, an absolutely exaggerated alert continues to appear in the announcements, as if I haven't finished it yet, on top of that extremely highlighted, way more than anything we've ever seen in this game's ads.

That's just the Announcements splash screen, which shows you stuff whether you care about it or not.

For instance, right now it's advertising that the Grand Psijic Villa is available in the Crown Store, even though I already got it for free some years ago during the Summerset event.

It's advertising the Oathsworn Pit painting, free to ESO Plus subscribers, even though I already collected it over a month ago.

It's all just announcements and advertisements.

Whether or not the announcement for Golden Pursuits is displayed has nothing to do with whether or not you've already completed 4/4 of the pursuits and collected both of the rewards for doing so.

It's not a bug, it's a feature.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist.)

At first, I also thought it might be intentional, but I don't believe it is. Considering I paid for the game, paid for all the DLC, and still always pay for the ESO+ subscription, then it makes absolutely no sense that I can still be a spam target in this game.

In fact, this type of promotional aggressiveness has never happened before. It's clearly a mistake. For example, in that announcement area (different than the one you are pointing), when the month ends and there are no more daily rewards, the ad disappears. In this specific case we have been spammed in the header menu, we have a highlight within the Group Finder and there is also this abysmal exaggeration in the announcements. No, it doesn't seem to be intentional, it's not normal. I still understand, being something new, that they did it to get noticed, but after finishing all objectives and collecting the rewards, still pushing all this really feels like a bug. Well... let's hope it is.
