Dumb?
Do you purposely forget that garrison’s were supposed to originally be a thing where you can place them any zone in Draenor
Have buildings themed to your race
Garrison’s were originally supposed to be bigger than the level 3 version
Buildings were supposed to be more in depth, like having an actual inn for example
There was a planned level 4 version that would have gave you MORE things to build
Lmao…so was dragonriding, but here we are.
YOU say its a small percent son, but casual players make up the bulk of the base in way way or another.
YOU aint the one with any authority to say if its a waste of time or not.
100% he is. Posting style and everything reminds me of Chases
his surprise…lol…the entire account is suspended, not just a character.
You can have multiple wow licences under one blizz account. Many people avoid bans that way.
exactly.
make it…find it…farm it…run group content for it…same as we do with mounts and mogs
So he hit and run? lol
not worth the waste time. Muted bait thread
They tried doing that with void elf bait thread as well lmao
You just proved yourself wrong…
It’s still not a house, it’s a fortress.
We know that some people want housing and some people do not. They can’t just throw housing in as a little side project, that will just leave the people who want housing disappointed. For housing to be a feature that makes some people happy it will require expansion level development resources. When they make something that big their goal is that the vast majority of players will engage with it, but we already know there is a big divide on this issue.
This is why player housing in WoW is doomed to be a waste of resources, because the resources required would demand that housing be a central game system.
Once saw a Developer interview where they said everything was a small percentage of the player base. Raids? a small percentage of around 10-15%. PVP? a small percentage of around 10-15%. Mythic+ was a little higher at 20-30% but that is still a small percentage. So on and so forth.
You know a game is in bad shape when it can’t even do what a game older than itself (EQ) is capable of doing…
Meh housing would be a great addition.
Personally I like EQ2’s housing system. I like being able to craft items, set those items to scale smaller or bigger.
Don’t get me wrong I enjoy playing the game as is. But lets be honest, outside of Mythics, character leveling, and raiding the game doesn’t offer anything in the way of doing.
While being a social multiplayer game there isn’t many social aspects to the game outside of trade chat.
I’ve been back in the game for about 8 months now, and honestly the only time i talk in game is when I need something crafted. But meh, guess thats the way of the world now.
I don’t think we are devoid of outdoor content. They just made the rewards kind of boring for some of it. The gearing options have improved. I don’t know why people think it has not. You still get decent gear for playing outdoors. You won’t get mythic level gear, but we aren’t doing mythic level content.
Which MMO has housing failed in? It’s been popular in every game I’ve played that has it.
Would y’all want some cross-over housing items / skins?
Like D4 themed home or decorations?
It’d be nice if there was some villain themed things for homes.
The hogger home
pile of bones in the living room
torn stormwind banner as a rug
crummy roof that’s just a few 2x4s some leaves and twigs
An Arthas home would be pretty cool -/cough-
Murloc style home! live by the sea or a pond with many fish friends.
Do you have a source for that… or is it something you just made up?
Ion made very clear in the interviews they did during Dragonflight that the player base is diverse and engages in all activities and not at all aligned. Perish the thought that you will get PvP = 15%, Raid = 13%, Mogs = 14% – that number isn’t coming out.
There is a source for this, but it won’t change your mind because it’s not accurate enough.
If you were hoping to skip straight to the place where we have all underestimated how many people want player housing, it’s not coming. Look back at the posted interview on player housing again. Ion admits it is not even clear within their own dev team.
If it is what most players want and will bring more players back, it really isn’t a waste, is it.
Why is NASA sending people to the moon again? That money could be spent fixing the potholes in my neighborhood.
The OP claimed a small percentage of the player base. You can make an argument that all forms of content are a small percentage of the player base. But based on the context of what the OP said, it seemed an inference that the people who want player housing is a significantly lower percentage of the player base that other forms of content.
We do not know those numbers. And I am not arguing by any stretch that the majority of players would want it. While we cannot say for sure, I would think it reasonable to assume its similar to the numbers you listed for other forms of content - especially mogs as I would imagine there is a correlation there with rp.
