Very cool. Thanks for posting !

I thought houses were still PTS only?

I'm afraid to watch, until we find out if they will go through with casino crates as the higher-ups have been pushing for. I am too afraid that all the cool housing stuff will be locked behind forced gambling and the whale with the biggest paycheck is the only one who gets to enjoy all it has to offer.

The only question I am really interested in at this point is "will housing be kept completely separate from the gambling boxes."

If not I may just be done.

It's not even there. Just the "pre-staging" mentioned in the patch notes. I'm hoping this isn't simply a
"regular" gamer showing that, but is instead some form of internal build from/provided by ZOS.

That would absolutely kill the game.

oh well 1 AM in the UK guess it's going to be a late one cause the game is very ill currently
but do want to have an idea of what the housing will be like so worth it lol

Nothing announced, but with FO4 VR being worked on, I can imagine ESO being worked on too as pure speculation.

my guess is that it'll mostly be seperate but there will be some store exclusive decos.

Terrible time for Europeans, but I guess we'll be able to rewatch it.

look on the brightside, watching it saved means you'll be able to fast forward through the useless introductory speaches and get to the relevent info. or just skip it if it turns out to be just some guy looking at the closed off housing areas

It seems that vr isn't going to be just a fad. I haven't had a chance to experience a vr headset yet, but I'm curious if today's vr technology is good enough to really trick your brain into thinking and feeling like you're really in the game? Or is vr more of a feeling of you being in the middle of some 360 degree theater screen, but the feeling is still that of you being in front of a "flat" screen?

How so? Sorry, just wanna add to the list of things that continue to "kill" this game.

@Publius_Scipio I tried a variety of the vr options and different games at E3 and it REALLY depended on the game. I play one game where I was in the intro and in space and the floor in front of my crumbled and I really got the feeling like I was standing on the edge and could fall. Other games it was just like.. I dunno. A video game but with "better" 3d mobs.

On topic. I miss this being a ESO live kinda thing but I'll definitely tune in because of my need to always tune in to stuff about ESO... lol

Trublz

I'm tuned in. ESO hasn't come up yet but it'll be soon so check it out

What I want to know is will one piece of buildable furniture at least be a vampire coffin.

Nighn_9

I wonder how much the large homes will cost...

Gilvoth

i want to live in a tent or a small house, really small house in a cave, something small just me and the woman.
the houses shown in video and all i have seen are too big, and obviously will be way too expensive for me.

Jaronking
