Player Owned Housing

The ONLY way these will be successful is if they offer benefits

Portals that have NO COOLDOWN
Multiple different Hubs on both continents to get to your POH
Someway for extra storage
Achievement Displays

…NVM just copy OSRS like yall did with SOD/Remix and you’ll be golden

I want an open concept kitchen and dining/living room, 3 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and a screened in porch.
And a pool, I have to have a pool.

All I can say is, you havent seen anything if you’ve never seen a fully decked out ESO house/guild house.

They get insane with utility

Amen, if it can’t level professions / player set portals I don’t need it. Hope it has a grind too.

I swear some players don’t remember how empty the world felt in WoD when everyone sat in their garrisons all day.

Very little felt impactful.

World feels empty now. What do you mean.

Depends where you play I feel. I’m on Proudmoore, and I see other players constantly out in the world. It gets even more populated in War Mode oddly enough.

On my server, Dornagal is always bustling, and I encounter people at world quests and delve entrances all the time.

I think War Mode is still server-specific, so Proudmoore being overwhelmingly Alliance means Alliance players leveling a new toon feel pretty safe doing it War Mode for the XP bonus since they’re unlikely to get kill-camped by Horde when just trying to level up faster.

Converse is true on overwhelmingly Horde servers, like Thrall or Illidan.

That actually makes quite a bit of sense! Thank you for the insight!

I wanna know if it’ll have a driveway to park my new Undermine hot rod or if I’ll need to use the parking garage.

I see people from other servers in WM all the time.

Some smaller servers are joined as connected realms (like Duskwood & Bloodhoof) while mega servers like Proudmoore & Thrall are not connected to any other servers. If you do see players from different realms in WM on a mega server, I’m surprised, but I don’t doubt your word as I haven’t touched WM since BFA.

If WoW’s system had none of your picks it would still be popular, if it was done right. If its a train wreck as some of their special systems turned out to be, then nothing will save it.

So basically rebuilding a chair over and over again or dungeon doors?

Who here is excited to do Mahogany Homes to get to 99 construction, lol.

And let’s not forget the gold cost.

It better be locked behind a new profession too! Lol just no ridiculous quest lines please

Will we have to pay a mortgage?

Sounds like you’re describing…
A garrison

Just know, you’ll probably just get a house.

Yep! I own about a dozen properties in ESO. One of my favorites is Moon Sugar Meadow, which starts off as a very large meadow with a large water feature (river) and has no housing on the property when you first buy it. I built an elevated fishing lodge above a bend in the river using some Summer Greenhouses. If you jump in off the back deck, you land in Slaughterfish :rofl:

Another of my properties is one of the in-town small apartments close to the bank and Guild Traders. I turned it into a steamy bathhouse with vines on the walls that have the glowing blue flowers. After a battle, it’s nice to get freshened up :wink:

My main is an Argonian Dragonknight named Thinks-He’s-a-Dragon.

I put my sub on hold to come back to WoW pre-TWW… I’m beginning to miss ESO and their system where you can use any weapon you want and any class can be any role. I love the fact of only having 5 skills and an Ultimate available at any one time rather than the button bloat we have in WoW… Dangit, now I’m starting to think about renewing my sub, lmao…

Oh yeah, they’re super nice but I was more talking about the houses that have every crafting table in the game, target dummies, vendors, NPCs, etc.

I’m always amazed by how much they’ll let you put into your house.
