    Player housing. The single biggest waste of resources/focus in MMO history.

    Why not just enable your characters to carry a mobile device and play Pokemon in Tamriel instead?

    Never found the use for a house in a online game. Unless they give us a home storage for items, like a chest. Housing don't seem that much of a deal to me.

    WOW actually has pokemon in it. You can catch "battle pets", level them up, and do pet battles with other players or npc trainers.

    I love housing. Especially when theres lots of options to personalize and add utility your home. For example, a good idea would be that you would get a 20% xp boost when you logged out inside your home in the bed.

    interesting idea, i was thinking for furnishing your house they would use the "Crafting system" and materials some how like back in skyrim with hearthfire DLC

    UO had the best housing system ever.

    Archeage also did a awesome job if wasn't for the easily exploited system.

    If I get a house, I really want a big ole chest that adds at least 50-100 to my storage.

    And I want to access writs from inside my house.

    And I want all the crafting stations readily available right next to my house or in my house.

    And a stablemaster who cares for my horse.

    Otherwise, the utility is kind of lost on me. It was cool at first, the idea of it, but as time has passed, I've realized that without all the above, it's pretty damn useless. What am I going to do? Spend my online time in a house doing nothing? I can do that already if I want, though I will get booted. So player housing has to actually have utility, IMHO for me to see the value of it. If I can start and end every gaming session in my house near quick access to writs (bulletin boards in the house, on the property, or right next to it), and have a stablemaster, and crafting right near it or on the property so that any toon I have or make can quickly access all these things AND I get a nice increase to my storage (at least 50-100) then that has value. Anything less, I personally don't really get the need of it. It was huge in skyrim but partly because you could mod it to make it really amazing or DL ones that were quite awesome. Here, I don't know.

    Gardening, that would be awesome. I will be surprised to see that though.

    So, you must not have ever played an "Elder Scrolls" game before. Player housing is as much a part of TES as mage/fighters guilds,lusty argonian maids, naked nords, sweetrolls, fishy sticks, Uncle Sheo and cheese.
    I was skeptical about player housing also, till I took a arrow to the knee...:)

    Play a game....within a game...It becomes inception like.

    Still for games within this game there is the prospect of racing lizards and frogs and I hear tell of a Red Green Blue game too.

    Cheers mate to different playstyles in MMOs. I have never found much use for raids or non-public dungeons in an online game. But I have always enjoyed housing (EQ2, LOTRO and SWTOR are examples) and look forward to having my own place here in Tamriel as well.

    EQ2 has housing done right. Besides a home storage vault, size dependent on house tier, its a place to display your trophies from quests and dress up how you wish, even crafting furniture. Its very useful.

    I can't wait for housing.
    It will make it more like the other ES games.
    If we have storage, can stable our horses, improve our houses, that would be perfect.
    My favourite house was the home in Skingrad in Oblivion, and probably the Sentinel house in Skyrim.
    I pretty much bought all the houses you could in both games and had a lot of fun decorating them.
    Being able to plant a garden! <3

    I would really also like fields we could harvest for provisioning materials. :)
