What happened to the pretty sunrise/sunset it looked like we were getting on the PTS? This was so gorgeous, seems like it was changed to a rather plain blue sky

Funny, in my case it's not blurry, but pixelated.

Personally? I think it's very different due to the pinker hue. I thought it was quite a bit softer and less harsh, especially since it didn't really have the orange lighting on the characters that gold road had. And I liked how it went with the login screen art.
The blue sky kind of lacks impact for me, it's a little uninspiring and doesn't feel adventurous or set off the ruins very well.
It's a pity we still can't swap between login screens, I'd love it if people could swap between versions depending on what they like.Legends never die

The Gold Road screen as well as the Coldharbour screen got a lot of hate for the coloured light shining on your character. I did not personally take issue with that (my issue was the CH background itself), but I do still prefer having my characters in a neutral light, with no big effects. So I think this is them listening to that feedback, and I am happy to see it!PC-EU | Long-time fan of TES Online: Furnishing and fashion simulator with massively multiplayer online chatting features.2 -
Thysbe✭✭✭✭✭it looks great - I liked coldharbour but I can understand why many didn´t want that
good to see that some feedback makes it into decisions1 -

✭✭I didn't like the Coldharbour background as it gave me uncomfortable prison memories. After all I was imprisoned there by the evil ones.
Really loving the new character select background.

✭✭✭Why did they chose this as a new character loading screen? It does not fit the feeling of the island. Why there are no sandy beaches, shells and palms with some Argonian huts in the background to see...?1 -

It doesn't really look tropical. I mean, yes, the stone of the Ayleid ruins looks darkened, and stone withering like that is more common or happens faster in a hot and especially humid environments (correct me if I'm wrong, but that's my impression from comparing the condition of structures/ruins in Middle Europe, North Africa and East Asia), but the vegetation doesn't look that much like it and without a closer look that could also be a scenery in Cyrodiil (also, the different hue might just be because they used a different type of stone for building).
I think I would have liked something different for once. Why not a harbour view? It would probably look just as static and flat, but it's the same with the current picture.@Syldras | PC | EU

✭✭Every time I log in and see this it reminds me of how much I just plain dislike that zone. It is dreary and depressing, you cannot easily get to where you are going due to having to open up all the skyshards on new characters. It is very unique and the glowing water is rather different I'll give it that but that's about it.0 -

I'm happy for a more neutral character select screen. I want to see what my characters actually look like. The past two had too much post-processing.spending a year dead for tax reasons3
