Why no Guild Halls?

BrotherMaxHealing

Has anyone from Zenimax had anything to say about why there is a lack of Guild halls in the game? Guild halls are important to the social aspect of a guild and would fill a gaping hole in helping connect the community.

DO they have any plans to integrate Guild halls at a future date???

If you aren't a developer and you have no info on Zenimax's plans..... what do YOU think about Guildhalls? Are they a necessity? How does your Guild put gatherings together?

My opinion ? Nice idea. But not a priority right now.

I've thought of a few ways to fill that gaping hole.

Same reason housing is not in the game , both would be great , but they never had the time to add them , hell we even lack 2 major guilds , i would not expect to see guild halls or housing before those 2 are added for example.

Well, right now guilds can claim Keeps in Cyrodiil,
but they don't function as anything useful.

They were supposed to be public store fronts for your store, but apparently Zenimax thought that was a bad idea...?

They planned on implementing this before release, but failed. You can tell by going to another guild's keep. Talk to the siege merchant. You'll have the option to use their guild store, but then it will tell you to join the guild to have access. Hopefully they fix this soon, because it would add a lot of fun to pvp.

I think that they need to do SOMETHING to make guilds want to participate together more. Some sort of way to compare to each other. Lots of other games give you a way to say, "hey! We are the best there is!" I like that.

As far as guild halls go, they don't have to be large, basically like diff maps the size of a large cave. Guild leader chooses one and everyone in the guild can warp there to hang out maybe theres a merchant, etc.

I dont feel like it would take very long to make a few small maps.

While you are correct that it is not a priority (last I heard they estimated 2 years before that) it should have been a priority from the jump. And should be now. What the game needs more than anything is something to do besides solo quests, and something social, fun, and that encourages community. But rather than do that, they are prioritizing what they already have, rather than what they lack. More quest lines, more Craglorn VR, but a Theives Guild (while cool) will add maybe 8-24 of gameplay. Guildhalls, housing, and social features add YEARS of gameplay.
Whoever is making decisions up there... what are you doing.
Worst. Management. Ever.

But that might turn my Guildies into friends instead of an audience to sell to.
