Guild and perosnal Houseing

Throughout TES games player housing or a place to put yo lootz, has been iconic, even in TES games such as Morrowind where you didn't actually own a house, but could find one somewhere to call your own.

The lack of this in TESO makes the game even more shallow and paper thin immersion wise then it already is.

On Guild Housing, this is definitely a feature which needs implementing, TESO above all else is a Lore/RP game. It's really hard to RP a vampire or Werewolf coven/pack (Or even a trade Guild), without a place to call home which suits the RP of your Guild.

A random collection of people doing whatever they want without a central place to gather, preform rituals and initiate new players, is not a guild. It's just people in a private chat channel. "Pretending" Or RPing that they are in an RP guild or in a guild at all.

    I make Poll threads, so that Devs and Community staff can see actual player interest. Player interest determines subscriptions. Besides, As pointed out above the fact that both of these features are not in game or currently planned for the game is an insult to the TES franchise in general, which If I may point out, Has included such in every single "Modern" game in some form or fashion. As stated it is an integral and Iconic part of a Modern TES game.

    I think it would be better if there were empty group dungeons disguised as buildings in the capital cities where guilds can "meet". Each guild 'assigns' themselves to one (although an unlimited amount of guilds could be assigned to each), and that city becomes their "home". There could even be a kind of king-of-the-city thing going on; the guild that has the highest score (as a combination of all players' scores) in each city gets named as the "king".

    Instanced Housing only. Nothing creates more Real Money Trade than a limited number of houses on the map. Or house spots. Nothing makes a game uglier than player made trailer parks.

    Instanced Housing has been done in several games and done well, so I would like to see it here. I would like to see it be a gold sink and time sink but not a billionaires club only thing.

    Hi guys,

    We'd like to implement Housing on The Elder Scrolls Online in the future, and we want to do it right. That said, we don't have a time-frame to share yet.

    As previously mentioned there are about 50 threads on this topic if you used the search function.

    As always, give me the option to make an account wide Telvanni Tower and I'd be happy. That is all.

    That's fine, we can't really expect you guys to give a date yet. BUT... anytime in the next 2 months will be fine, no rush

    Housing is certainly of interest. But I think the first thing I want to know about, customization aside, is weather or not these houses will be instanced in a town or be more 'free-lance' where you can basically put houses anywhere you want in the game.

    I, personally, am for the former (but not through the bare standard, one-door-in-town-multiple-phases-inside system). But I want to know ahead of time, as I see the 'placement system' as the core base of the housing system overall; and both methods have pros and cons.

    Instanced doorways/islands/whatever help reduce lag in certain areas as opposed to free placement in the game world. But free land claims in Tamriel can prove to be exhilarating in term of scenic beauty and 'sand-boxy' nature.

    Just give me that little nit bit...c'mon...give us at least this to chew on.....instanced or not instanced....tell me.

    Can never have too many thread on this topic (IMO) should have been in from the start, not something that needed to be asked for. Housing is an integral part of TES gaming experience !

    I just hope it's all instanced so I don't have to see thousands of homes cluttering up the landscape.

    Make a quest / multiple quest that, after completing it / them, rewards you'r char with housing. Not a give away by just picking up a lost deed somwhere in dungeon / cave, and be done with it, but somthing thats needs effort to compleet.

    I would love to see both individual housing and guild housing (halls), for me it's a necessity that they are instanced, only available to myself, the people I invite, and for guild halls obviously only members of that particular guild.

    Additionally I would suggest having multiple properties available per zone, giving us some options of what architecture appeals to people, with the interiors being customisable, the ability to invest and expand houses and add either crafting stations/social areas (possible mini games if you invite friends).
    it should also be a gold sink too, I think you should be able to purchase more than one property, but either have some houses very expensive, or have houses increase in expense determined by the amount you already own.

    Just my thoughts.
