    I don't really understand what you mean when you ask what's in it for ZOS, just like any gameplay and content it just adds to their game.

    I guess one thing that they could directly use would be something like "new and innovative perma death mode dungeons" advertising.
    I mean, what would ZOS get in return for some sort of perma-death function? I suspect that they're interested in money

    And the return would have to be greater than the investment. Would they spend thousands (pure guess there) to create something that maybe a few hundred people would use?

    Well yeah if only a tiny bit of the population did use it, it would be pointless, but I still reckon it would be atleast 20%.

    It would be a big gamble but there are alot of people who love gambling.

    You can't get 90% of the population to set foot in Cyrodiil. What makes you think you'd get 20% to sign up for their characters to be deleted.

    And, there's the /thread moment. This would allow bots to continue to delete characters above and beyond the limit.

    It'd be an interesting exercise I guess.

    Maybe run a test trial....identify a specific dungeon and for a week or two disable any characters who die during the run. If there was enough interest, it could possibly justify a new zone / DLC / phase.
