Maybe... housing will be DLC, so that if you buy it (or are subbed) you will have access to it and don't need to buy/bid in-game for the actual house. And if you could choose which region you wanted it in, even better.

The SWG version sounds pretty awesome... I could see myself spending more time in ESO than I currently do if it it'slike that. Which, for the record, probably wouldn't be healthy.

really hope they dont make a mess of it .. while i love designing buliding houses .. i have 8 houses in ffxiv arr.. they should focus on guild housing first allowing them to build and enlarge over time etc!! personal housing SHOULD be instanced /hole in the wall/ apartment type houses .. otherwise there going to be screming for server space or have a whole lot of issues (not unlike ffxiv ) if they mix guild with personal!!

The SWG housing system was incredible. I was 1 of those GLs that had a tier 5 city (New Solah on Bria). There were about 1400 items in my musti bunker, all 1 of a kind, dropped/crafted/trophys that more than 1 person came to the city just to see the bunker (it was public so any1 could come in a take a look around). The musti bunker had a built in bar in the basement (3 levels via elevator) that I had transformed into a giant fish tank, complete with bubbles, fish, plants, etc. For quests, Christmas presents to the playerbase, etc, SOE would come up with a new fireplace, painting, table, etc to be a reward/present/etc and at no time did a fireplace, or any other deco item, mess with PVP balance. There were so many different paintings in that bunker that I ran out of wall space and started putting them on the ceilings. I played SWG for 9 years and there was still 2 painting I never got my hands on. The game's been closed since 2011 and I still remember their names I looked for them so much, Dusk over Kirchirro and Dath Prison.

City Hall was deco-ed into a "health club" of sorts, complete with hot tub, pool tables, Big screens, and a "droid band" playing guitar-zan. The RPers in guild and in the city used that place quite a bit. City Cantina was deco-ed with tables, chairs, fireplaces, rugs, etc etc etc and was another spot that RP and non-RP seemed to use quite a bit. City hospital was deco-ed with beds, old med kits, etc. Another aspect of SWG cities was outside deco, outside gardens, street lighting, fountains, etc as well. I still have plenty of screenshots that the wife and I look back on pretty fondly.

I doubt we'll see cities here but complete deco of the interior of our own housing is at the least what I'm hoping for. I gave totally up on TOR the moment the released that "hook system". Same hook system was in STO when they put in ship interiors. I've got a lifetime sub over there and haven't logged-in in years.

We need to organize an expedition. Let's find ALL of these locations and post here, maybe?

One location - Glenumbra. Leave Daggerfall by the gate nearest to the Harbourage. Go towards the Harbourage, then go to the right - you'll find a new path. Follow this and you come to locked gates with a house/housing beyond them.

As entertaining as this thread is, this is the info I came here to find. Thanks!

I don't wanna live in Glenumbra though! I want to go back to my skyrim house in Falkreath.

Shadowfen has one in Stormhold, big mudpile with ugly fences behind the tavern.

Unfortunately, it didn't capture my cursor when I pointed at the locations for the screenshots. Some are obvious, some aren't. Easiest way to tell that a house is there is by looking for a building on the map that seems out of place. Example is just north-east of Nimalten in the Rift there is a small brown area with a path leading off the main road. A house is there

Edit: I'll keep updating that album as I find more. Added the houses in Stormhold and Wayrest and put a waypoint marker on the maps for them.

@Esquire1980g_ESO
Let me see the SS's!
I miss SWG so much. I've been scoping out the emu servers. Considering DLing.
If ESO housing was half as similar to SWG housing i don't think I'd ever log out

Does anyone think they will add housing in Alik'r or Eastmarch?

I would love a house in the snowy northern part of Eastmarch just outside Windhelm. Also, I think a Desert house in one of the Alik'r towns could be nice.

If bousing is done well it will be a fun time sink in the Rift i visted a lot of player houses and it was amazing what some players built and the attention to detail player housing is one of those things that helps you feel like you live in the world and not just playing through the world.

There's a bunch of us that can't quite let that game go. Our guild, over here is called SWGVETS in fact. I'd post SSs if I only knew how to post pics. lol

My sig, over at EMU, has a pic of the "tomb" I built for my pre-patch 9 jedi after the closure announcement. This was his 1st house and I had so much maintenance in it, I couldn't get rid of it. (millions lol) http://www.swgemu.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183117&page=2

I ran an EMU server for a year. Was called SWGCHOICE. Down now, was a very expensive ordeal with no way to re-coup costs. Servers are still in my garage, fully loaded with data, just in case ZOS goes out in left field and does some type of NERFWARS, CU, NGE, or C6CD. I doubt I'd go thru all that again and continue subbing.

Adding an estate to Lower Yorgrim and a cabin to the area around Darkwater Crossing would be sweet.

Super disappointed by what I see there. While im excited for housing and the houses there are beautiful, there is going to be no sense of community with a single instanced house. Was hoping they were going to go the way of a instanced neighborhood so you could meet and know your neighbors. I understand they cant do SWG's open world housing, and I HATED Lotros hook system but was hoping they would use lotros idea for instanced neighborhoods so there would be a sense of community.
