everyone. you think everyone wants player housing. the only time i ever hear those words put together is by the same 3-4 people on these forums. i am sorry to be coming off as a cold sore on the topic but wow is not the game for this sort of feature. the world in wod was dead because people sat in their instanced garrison. what makes you think housing will be any different.
i said it before and i will say it again. if there are no mounts, pets, toys, cosmetics, titles or achievements tied to it and the non player housing crowd is not âFORCEDâ to do it, then by all means start working on it now and bring it on.
Ion said they are working on it slowly over time, bit by bit, since it is a tier-worth of effort and they donât want to sacrifice a tier to get something as non-content as housing.
I believe the problem there was too much stuff you could do while hiding in it. There was a mine, a mission table, profession buildings, invasions, herb garden, fishing hole, pet menagerie, and those are just the things everyone had.
I donât want WoD 2.0 either I just want 100% optional Player Housing not tied to progression. If you want to know what Iâm talking about look up Wildstar Player Housing⌠it was one of the very few things Wildstar Devs got right.
Why not Runescape? Runescape had TREMENDOUS success with the construction skill and created SO MUCH UTILITY for players. Is that a good example? No? Oh wait this isnât Runescape and the majority here doesnât care.
I love osrs, but PoH in that game was developed early on, and that game Iâm assuming (back then) wasnât as much of a nightmare as wow is to work on
Definitely needed another thread asking for a feature that was already attempted (garrisons), widely disliked, and still having a negative influence on the gameâs economy 10 years later.
And player housing will be part of WoW for many. Including your wife, friends, and guildmates who are yessing you in hopes that youâll drop the subject.
