I feel like they should do a combination of ESO and SWTOR housing system where there at set locations that you can go to visit and within the house there’s a set place you can put decoration and items in it. They also need to make all decorations all be made from player professions and unique based on player race/achievements/etc and not be obtainable at all within the WoW store (none of this cartel coins credit or crown credit or real life money like in other games).
Then maybe later on add some house decoration to be obtained in either dungeons/raid, quests, trading post, black market auction house or even npc vendors that come every once in awhile (holiday events, WoW anniversary, or random special events)
I get what your saying but if there going to do that they need to make it only a few items and have those items still be obtained though the trading post as I said they should do later on
I largely agree, however having it where only Blood Elf can make a Blood Elvin tapestry and have craft that be race locked will encourage a wider array of trading so then you can go to an Orcish crafter make you a Orcish rug because because you like it better than the other race locked design.
You can still obtain the deco but you would need a certain race to craft the item in the first place
The best stuff for your house is going to cost $25+. Probably $50+. While we’re being realistic, just owning the house or plot of land in WoW will be $100+ and that won’t include the building.
Nothing good will be earnable through gameplay other than the usual fomo ksm/arena gladiator crap that might include some trophy for your house.
Everyone would be able to get a house and it wouldn’t be mandatory. It would work like ESO and SWTOR. In ESO you can still visit the house and be around it even when you don’t own it yet and in SWTOR inside the house there are set locations where you can place items and decorations
So true! Even in FFXIV, every dye is available in-game except for the most sought after - Jet Black.
It also reminds me of those 3D character modeling apps. You’ll get the basic assets for free but anything that makes your character look awesome, gotta shell out.
Yeah, honestly I feel like it’s pretty expected by most people who want housing in WoW.
I think it’s fine, personally, especially since WoW’s cash shop will always be better than other MMOs purely by virtue of the fact that you can trade in gold for store credit, effectively making it a slightly more complicated in-game shop as long as you’re willing to farm.
Nah they need to make all these items both craftable, AND drop from sources from all expacs. Reasons to go run an old dungeon or raid, or do something in the outdoors in an old expac. They want player interaction, thats how they do it.
No matter what they do they will never come close to Second Life for player housing. In 2ndLife there are furniture stores, all the furniture has animations to allow your avis to do things, there are lamps that work, complete kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms etc.
So maybe Blizzard could work a deal with Linden Labs and subcontract out their housing. It would be several orders of magnitude better than anything any MMO could provide.
