✭✭✭✭✭Did they actually state that the NM was going to be a replacement for Dungeons?
They said something along the lines that devoting resources to Night Market was a reason why there are no dungeon DLCs this year. They didn't use the word "replacement" per se; that's just a (reasonable) player interpretation of what they said.Nightfighters ― PC/NA and PC/EU

...Overland is a majority of the game, what do you mean? It is literally where most of the game's content and story comes from. Dungeons and PvP are peanuts compared to the content you get in Overland. Are you trying to imply there's next to no content just because people ignore Overland mobs?barney2525 wrote: »People just will not accept that Overland is Not the focus of the game.
Overland is the FLAVOR of the game. As you move through different areas you run into different types of mobs with some different and sometimes unique attack and defense.
But it still just exists as Flavor, as you go from point A to point B doing missions/questing etc. That's why you still see plenty of players just flying past you, ignoring the mobs.
So we were given the option to increase the difficulty because a loud minority of players wanted it. It's possible they assumed - more difficulty = better mob drops and more gold. Well..... I guess it depends on a persons definition of " better "
The game's base main quest is Overland.
All DLC Zones' main quests are Overland.
Mages Guild and Fighters Guild quests are Overland.
World Bosses are Overland.
World Events like Dragons or Dolmens are Overland.
Likely roughly 90% probably of quests are Overland.
Scrying/Excavating is Overland.
Public Dungeons are Overland.
Delves are Overland.
Psijic Order's quest is Overland.
Farming mats is almost only done in Overland.
A majority of Leads are in Overland.
So what do you mean that the focus isn't Overland? A huge majority of it is Overland, far more than Dungeons, Trials, and PvP. Also I think it's just a bit silly to say a vocal minority wanted it considering the years' old thread with hundreds of pages about Overland Difficulty, not to mention all the separate threads about it over the years. And that's only the discussion on it here, there's been talk about it other places like Reddit and Steam too.Edited by Arunei on June 20, 2026 4:49PMPC-NA | Been around since closed beta | Alt account: Arunei PC-NA

No one's forcing you to complete the golden pursuit, and it has no unique rewards even.-First-Wave Closed Beta Tester of the Psijic Order, aka the 0.016 percent.
Exploits suck. Don't blame just the game, blame the players abusing them!
-Playing since July 2013, back when we had a killspam channel in Cyrodiil and the lands of Tamriel were roamed by dinosaurs.

Put it on Vestige. Go to Alik'r. Join the Dolmen farmers. Spam AoE damage skills. Hold block and stand in enemy AoE. Use a potion every 45s. Cast ulti 5 times. Do 3 dolmens. 15 minutes. GP completed.PC EU
Never get involved in a land war in Asia - it's one of the classic blunders!5 -

I admit I was miffed about it when I saw the GP, and that’s exactly what I thought. It took very little time to get the capstone reward though, and not much effort.
I just use that as an example to remind me not to take things posted here literally anymore. I don’t think that was anyone from ZOS that said it was optional though, probably just another player.

They said there would be a Golden Pursuit and maybe future rewards for higher difficulty in the dev livestream when it was introduced.
As others have said, you're also not being forced to do anything. It's a bit of gold. That's it. Nothing unique.0 -
Melivar✭✭✭✭Until it is impossible to cheese getting credit the extra xp and gold is more than enough. Was able to get most of the things and stuff done for the golden by waiting for others not on the setting to come by.0
