Housing - what will you use it for?

    Nothing. I've always found housing a boring and useless aspect of MMOs. I'm saddened we'll be getting something this useless over some other content.

    I will still get the free rooms, maybe some of the upgrades (depending on what they cost and what else I want to do with the money) but I don't really get the appeal unless you're a serious role-player and want a private instanced space.

    In other games I mainly use housing as storage space - somewhere to keep things I want to hang onto but don't want to carry around (especially in Elder Scrolls games). Some I just keep in chests, some I display around the house, but the point is I keep my stuff there and sometimes appreciate the free, safe bed too.

    Since we can't store stuff and can only decorate with specifically designed items and don't need to sleep I don't really see any use for housing. I might go back once in a while to add new decorations, but I can't see myself spending a lot of time on it.

    I keep hoping there's something I'm missing and when it's released I'll have that 'lightbulb' moment when I go "Ah! This is why people like it so much!", but at the moment it seems unlikely.

    I'd go for half of the #1, #7 and #8
    I am the very model of a scientist Salarian, I've studied species Turian, Asari, and Batarian.
    I'm quite good at genetics (as a subset of biology) because I am an expert (which I know is a tautology).
    My xenoscience studies range from urban to agrarian, I am the very model of a Scientist Salarian.

    @andreasranasen I'll use the mannequin - the one thing of value that Housing brings for me.

    That is, if I continue to play ESO consistently after that update releases. My main incentive to continue playing was Player Housing and personally the hype is gone for me :disappointed:

    The leader board in Haderus says different ;) get your points up and get emp and you'll end up staying playing ESO !

    Naw I was just helping out Eric's group. I don't ever have enough time to push Emp.

    not nearly as excited as i was originally, for obvious reasons.

    kind of like buying a vehicle with no engine, you can sit in it, kick the tires, push it around a little, but you really can't get anywhere because something quite vital is missing.

    Speaking of the test dummy/skeleton, did anyone notice the weird part in the video where the character apparently "killed" the skeleton? Isn't the whole point of a test dummy that it can't be killed?

    I'll do the quests involved in getting one. Not sure I will do anything with it apart from owning it. I suppose I would go for related achievements.

    I wish there was an All of the Above option! I'll make due with lack of storage, as I am much an aesthetic person. I have my eyes on the huge manor in Mathiisen, and I plan on making it a beautiful home for my multitude of pets and mounts, as well as inviting my friends over to socialize, craft, and more! I fully intend on making my house a place worth being at.

    My characters all have different desires and ideals. My main is an ancient vampire and wants a huge gothic castle that screams 'VAMPIRE!' at passers-by. One of my khajiits wants a smaller, warm, cozy home, away from water and wind. Another wants a nice town house, etc.

    I won't be purchasing a home until storage is included. Until then, I don't even know what size home I need to buy. But, I will start saving for a home right now so that I'm ready to buy when and if storage is ever included with a home.
