Plots everywhere demolished and open!

Well, them adding a Crysta reward system wouldn't necessarily lead to them becoming more and more predatory, so I'd give you that. I do think there is SOME merit in the idea, for sub-based rewards, in general, but a system like ESO, I just don't think would work. At least not on a similar scale. I think there may be other better alternatives anyway, I'd rather see more unique rewards in-game, outside of the cash shop.

As for developer history, I don't really know SE too well, not outside of this game in particular. I tend to not trust most developers these days, and when I do, I get let down. Like CDPR - I don't excuse them either, they are actual liars in my book. Same level, maybe worse than EA.

Yeah, there is a ton of instanced housing available in that game. Granted, I think Zenimax uses housing as a vehicle to sell cash shop decor, but even so the housing at a base level is far more in depth and dwarfs this game's large plots in scale/scope. I don't necessarily think SE has to go down the road of instanced housing, but they need to do something. Housing is fairly heavily emphasized, and I wouldn't doubt if they add at least something new to it come this next expac, whether it's changes, or more of the same. I couldn't believe that clicking on a plot for tens of hours was the norm for trying to get a house on a populated server. It was unbelievable, and it's still unbelievable.

Oh, also, they need to add a glamour dresser function and stuff to houses too.

This estate hall is probably the ugliest thing I have ever seen for housing. I need to figure out how to get something better. Probably crafting.



Seriously, it's hideous. I can't believe I spent 450k on it.

Hey, I see you got a house finally, grats.

Crafting would be the way to go and imo this is where it really feels rewarding to be a crafter. You can literally craft your house. It will take A LOT of time, but it will be worth it.

Yes, but I'm not too invested in living in the Grand Canyon. I'd rather have Lavender Beds, or God Forbid Shirogane, but that'll be another struggle. Not too interested in the idea of Ishgard, I'll have to see how the whole place looks, if they do it. Ishgard would probably be really nice for a medieval fantasy inspired set though.

Yeah, I want housing to be kind of a big motivation to get me to actually level, or occasionally play any crafters.
