Why no Dungeon Enemys in the open World??

Why are there no Skelletons and Zombies in the Overworld or other Dungeon Enemies?

Could make to overworld less boring and have more random and diverse Encounters.
The Banditcamp and Animaltrail gets old very quick.

[steel yarrow]

Undead and proselytes are near special places.

[sand stag]

Why mot scatter them more around? They should have lairs of thier own, like the bandits.

Because both undead and cultists don't wander on their own, they're drawn to respective places of power such as crypts and abbeys. Having them all around the map as regular encounters will triviliaze them as enemy factions, and they need to be something you can meet only in designated places.

the piles of human sacrifices magically make their way into the catacombs

[vernal garden]

Undead don't go to cemeteries. They get made in cemeteries. And human sacrifices don't get produced in catacombs. They get sent there... probably kidnapped then transported there. Devs can implement random events in the future where we might be able to rescue certain NPCs from ending up in catacombs, or disrupt corpse deliveries to cemeteries, who knows...

[sand stag]

That are just some made up Ingame reasons, that can be concluded in some way.
That it would trivialise them is maybe true, but having a more empty world with less enemy variety is just as bad

Change your game lore so that my brilliant idea starts making sense 😡 😡 😡

[regal lodge]

that's why orcs and goblins are planned, as well as a random encounter system

[inland raven]

but it is true that the world is empty though which will be worked on later

the logic only really works for crypts though since the indead are risen from within

[neon kite]

Most corpses there are either uncorrupted monks who lived in the abbey or pilgrims visiting those abbeys

[inland raven]

bruh nobody has common sense

people still makong pilgrimages by the dozens it's pretty commom word theyre getting merked for cultist rituals

cant convince me this many people are willingly walking into these abbeys like that 😭

[neon kite]

Proselytes are fairly recent (like, not even a full year has passed) and their existence is not a common knowledge. And the rumors also actively suppressed/downplayed by Hieron

While pilgrimages are one the main tenets of hieronism, so there are plenty of them still travelling around

[chrome steeple]

Vehements are also sent to fight them once in a while so I guess some don't make it out alive

and proselytes also sacrifice their own

their name does suggest they are trying to expand

no clue how their recruitment process works tho

[inland raven]

idk there are piles and piles of corpses renewing every time

lots of vehements and pilgrims apparently

[neon kite]

Yes, and bastions layouts change every reset subtly hinting at their inherently magical nature

[inland raven]

maybe the goons get tired of the scenery and some weekends they do major architectural restructuring

yes im joking
