Pulse of housing priorities

JHartEllis · July 2020

This past Friday, I asked people at the luxury furnishing party on PC/NA what ONE thing they would want added/changed for housing, and here are their responses:

Basic windows
Raise item limits
More water features
Bigger pet limits
Special storage for furnishings
Walking paths
Housing pet relation
Settings for controlling weather
No weeds through floors (smarter grass options)
More furnishing slots
Water that can fill spaces
Real looking water
Baskets for cats
More walls/foundations
Dwemer lifts
Ability to fuse items
Travel to homes other than just primary
Guild trader NPC
Houses that are just open fields
Elevation-ladder or rope (ability to move up and down)
Writ board
Controls for time of day and weather
Prefabricated fish tanks
Ability to add your alts as guests
Increase inventory limits
Increase limits
Dwemer/ayleid-themed houses
Goblin NPCs
Make it so storage items don’t count against limits
Make interesting stolen items into furnishings
Mountable Armor and weapons
Fishing
More items per house
Costume mannequin and easels
Gathering nodes and fishing
More special collectible slots
Paintable color palettes
Adjustable flooring and walls
Place to turn in master writs (Rolis Hlaalu houseguest?)
Weighted item limits
Object pathing (like character pathing, but move furnishings along paths)
Emotes for chars (e.g. houseguest sweeps/prays/eats while stopped)
Growing plants/pet
Ability to put your own chars in houses
Bards
Fishing
Settings to keep weather and day/night static

What's the one thing you would change? My #1 at the moment is settings for the day/night cycle--I'd love to be able to see homes as they are intended to be seen.

Option to buy multiple items at a time from the crown store in the housing editor. If you need a lot of something, it can take a while to buy them. This is less of a problem on live, but I have been kicked from PTS for spamming the crown store with hundreds of sales.

I made this mistake once where I mistook an item on PTS for home goods or craft-able items, and then when I tried to import onto live I found it was crowns only. Luckily it was 50cr each, otherwise I might have cried.

Day/Night cycle is my #1 right now. It's basically already implemented, and long overdue. Second/Third would be to raise the item limit and custom house guests, but I have a bad gut feeling that we're not going to get that.

Not strictly decor stuff per-se, but IDK why personal merchants can't repair your stuff. It's not like you can summon them in Cyrodiil anyway, so you don't have any unfair advantage over other players, and anybody in your group could use them in dungeons anyway. Besides, it'd boost merchant sales a lot

While I'd like most of the listed stuff, for me its definitely raising items limit - low limit is the sole reason i never bought a large or manor size home.
The only manor i decorated is hall of lunar champion, and i have shut off two wings, making suspended Cliff Village in moongrave wing and simple corridor in main room. With 700/700 I could use few more slots to add more details here and there.
In Grand psyjic Villa I always wanted to make hogwarts- style school, but again, not even trying, if it would either have to be half empty, or with several rooms closed off.
But hey, it's now a nice warehouse for furniture :')

I support almost entire list. My top request -

Ability to add your Alts as guests.

Preferred method: Use character editor to recreate Alt on a purchased blank template.

Reason: We have two accounts.

The Alt copy could have one or more text only greetings.
