At it's core it's a PvEvP DLC. The update will be dealing a body blow to the buff campaign structure today... but, it probably won't alter the existing approach to campaign management.0 -

How can it be a PvE expansion when all of the content is in a PvP zone?0 -
Johngo0036✭✭✭✭✭Hey,
This is a very negative post and not a true reflection of Imperial City,
I absolutely LOVED it,
Yes i think there are still issues with bosses that one shot you,
Overall my view is totally different to yours,
but each of us to what we enjoy,
I love the non stop action we had between the 3 factions and even though we were not a group, but a lot of randoms that just got together, we had huge fun,
I think there are issues with the way stones get taken, the longer you survive the more stones you lose,
think this is not good.. but i do believe this will revitalize the game.PC EU Megaserver

Dahkoht✭✭✭✭✭I still want to know why you oh so intelligent PVP haters bought a game that was very very heavily advertised as PvPvE before launch.
Doesn't seem like that bright a decision for the "enlightened pacifists" to buy the game when they made no bones about letting people know of you chose to not PVP you would miss out on some content.0 -

I have no problem with the game having PvP just as long as it is optional. Pretty much every MMO I have played has PvP and in each of them I have the option to ignore it and carry on progressing my character in PvE. All of the content for progressing from V14-V16 is in a PvP zone, which is a big FU to PvE players who don't want to quest there.
So there is a big difference between "missing out on some content" and having your progress halted unless you play through using an aspect of the game you hate.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭IC will NOT ruin the game. However, it will end up a ghost town like Cyrodiil soon enough.

Still have dailies and two new dungeons with 2 modes. Plus with the xp buff and lvlING nerf it won't take long. And the last patch of the pts had my main v14 already at v15 which I hope carries over to the live. This means you only have to lvl once. As for players who cry about not wanting to have to pvp for stones well you can still do the non-pvp stuff, earn gold, and then buy from other players. Still have a problem then go jump on a dead server and go to the seers in your faction territory to minimize the risk of pvp.0 -

✭Strictly pve. Will not be setting foot in the Imperial City.
And thus have no reason to purchase it at all. @ZOS_GinaBruno, @ZOS_JessicaFolsom, I hope it's been pointed out to management that their decision to not include any actual PVE Zones in this DLC is really going to cost ZOS a lot of revenue...... Those who ONLY PVE will not purchase this DLC as it brings them NOTHING but hassles.
This is the first DLC of ESO and marketed to the "limited PVPer's". Not a wise business decision by a long shot.....NA Server - Kildair1 -

IC was created with PvP in mind first ... ZOS management has acknowledged that already. With only one PvP zone in the whole game, the release of this type of content makes sense.
As one who likes both PvE and PvP, it still bothers me that there are PvEers still complaining about IC when the current ratio of PvE to PvP zones in the game is 22:1. When Wrothgar and Murkmire come out, it will be 24:2.
As you indicated, if PvEers don't like IC after testing a character on PTS, they simply don't have to buy the DLC. Easy as that.1 -

It is as easy as that. They will sell a lot more DLC's in the future if they include updates for both types of game play. I am getting IC for sure as I really enjoy PVP and PVE.
It's just mind boggling that their management was "ok" with this decision.NA Server - Kildair0 -

This game is for people to play as they want.You do not NEED to PvP at all to have a solid strong character.I have two well built vets and have never once done the PvP bit. And I have no plan to. Too many egotists in PvP for that. I just want to play.
As to the OP,I am in agreement.Unlike some people,I dont mind taking a moment of my time to r ead a longer post.It has relevant points,and I thought well written without being in the 'complaint' style.0
