Instanced Housing?

[KRIPTICON]

I'm not a computer expert by any means, but wouldn't it generate an unmanageable amount of server load to create that many separate instances in the game? The servers have had trouble in the past with instance based content as it is.

instanced housing is only loaded on an as needed basis and there is nothing forcing you to go there enmasse, like a Rauban Housing Extreme. Currently there are many areas similar to that, like the rising stones, waking sands, every apartment and inn room.

Additionally, instanced zones take up very little space, even when loaded, compared to any zone that has NPCs of any kind. The fewer NPCs present, the fewer scripts that need to be called.
