I have an in game house in ESO, its in Cyrodiil and its all mine, I would tell you the exact spot but last time I did that a few players came over and killed me.

But its still its mine, I have the ownership papers around here somewhere, a player sold me the rights for 42k. They laughed a lot when I brought it, but it was a bargain. My very own house. Having issues 'moving' stuff around and it would be nice to be able to 'port' to my house but I am sure that will be fixed in a patch or two.

How would you go about buying/selling a house in eso?

Lol... I would totally rent a room from you if we could move furniture around

I read nothing of a Telvanni Mushroom Tower and I'm not sure how to feel about it.

Really great, well thought out post. My hunch is that we will get housing someday. However, it will be far in the future. Why give all the goodies out right away? In the coming years, this game will depend on updates or it will feel stale. It's like a card up their sleeve. Just when you think the game isn't going anywhere, BAM, housing (or whatever other update they have in store).

Sorry about that, I purposefully left a lot of specific information about styles out because there are soooo many different options to choose from

I'm going to resurrect this old thread because it's outright awesome.

I love your ideá in general, even while I myself would prefer to have a creepy cave underwater for my vampire to hide and sleep in his coffin, your system is outright awesome. Plus, as a player who values housing dearly in any game, I feel that ESO would benefit 110% from a system like this which gives player choices as to what they want.

Games like Runescape, Wildstar and even SW:TOR now all see huge amount of players who solely play the game to RP and build their house. Espically SW:TOR had a giant spike of players returning and coming to the game as soon as player housing was introduced.

While the new Justice system will most likely do slightly the same for ESO, a housing system like this would be awesome.

Please though, allow us nasty old vampires to have a coffin instead of a bed, that pesky sunlight ain't good for us =P

I wish I could press both Insightful, Agree and Awesome, though agree for now would have to do!

I usually prefer the KISS approach to new features ("Keep it simple, stupid").

All they need is one house, instanced to each player (with maybe an option to allow players to invite other players inside).

But right now I would settle for a separate "trophies" section so I don't have to waste inventory slots on them (think they may have already said that was in the works).

For this game to succeed and follow TES games housing is needed and i fully support it!

Don't hold you breath on this one. With all of major and minor bugs in this game still not fixed since beta, you want buggy houses too?

Wow; you wrote a lot. Just to bump though, Housing is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay way way over due. I suspect we will see something akin to what exists in LoTRO or SWTOR, which is fine by me.

As someone who is not going to participate at all in the upcoming Justice System, I'd have to disagree with the stealing part of the OP. I don't mind the inclusion of such a mechanic, but I'd like a way to opt out. Some way to make all items in my house non-theftable. (I just made that word up. Oxford!! Print it!)

Volkodav

A portal would be an awesome way to do it.Have a portal to the area your newly bought home is. :} Like the portals we already have for certain quests.
Oh,and if someone doesnt own the house,they cant get in unless given access permission.Hence no thievery. :]

I want housing in eso so much.
