Hello,

i tried to transcribe the AMA/Interview hosted today on twitch.tv/kyledempsterstudios.
I hope that i didn't miss too much or wrote down anything wrong.

(English is not my native language, but i tried to get everything as clean as possible)

The interview is also availble as a VOD here:

Q: Will we ever be able to gift houses to other players?
A: We know a lot of people want it. I can't guarantee it,but we are looking into it.

    I have about 12 million gold saved up hoping this happens.
    and then the parrot said, "must be the water mines green too."

    It'd be nice. Houses used to be giftable on the PTS, but there was a bug that prevented players from gifting houses that they owned. Hopefully that can be fixed so players don't have to beg Support to see if they can "gift" the house.

    This would be rather neat, and I imagine also profitable for ZOS. Seems it would be win-win. I haven't put a lot of thought to what the downside to this would be, or how its different to gifting any other asset from the crown store. (ideas, anyone?)

    There were problems with people not being able to gift houses they already owned (via the automatic button system in the store), and there are also issues with people not being able to gift furnished houses, as apparently there's a problem that keeps ZOS from giving furnished homes for free (which is how the gift looks on the crown store end of things). It's why free homes in game are always unfurnished. I imagine they're looking to resolve one or both of these problems before instituting any kind of direct home gifting in the store.
