Player housing and comparison to other MMOs

I would ask why are they not investing that 5% into something to improve the actual game itself.

And what would that be?

New Game Modes. Balancing Classes. Balancing Dungeons.

Maybe some new content, rather than rehashed old content.

Rather than having the trading post, maybe they could Develop more quests and achievements to earn those cosmetic rewards. To make them feel more enjoyable.

reported for trolling.

I’m not trolling, I’m discussing the topic.

Dismissing others opinions out of hand while parroting your talking points isn’t a discussion.

Im happy with the current dungeons and raids.
I kinda enjoy going back to old dungeons in the M+ seasons and trying again.
I dont care about cosmetics as they dont increase my Player power.

All the things you listed dont bother me. So for me this would be a waste of resources.

[Sinaaki-argent-dawn]

I sadly didnt play wod so never got to experience the garrison to the fullest, only done a bit while i was working on my pathfinder achievment i think.

I do enjoy building in other games, i would have to see how it would be in wow before i can say its something i would enjoy and engage with or not. I do think it would be a nice addition if implemented, as long as they keep it optional.

Cool.

That’s fine.

But they do me.

<---- Look here.

The evidence says otherwise!

Out of context quoting at its finest.
Why not include the part of the message that counters your reply:

@Punyelf-draenor

Wow appeals to a lot of different types of players, housing will appeal to people across the board. Not everyone ofc but collectors come from all forms of the game.

That pretty much counters your statement, doesn’t it?

Besides that, I hope you’re not assuming that you represent all players?

@Emberthal-magtheridon

New Game Modes.

Housing is a new game mode. Like it or not, it factually is.

@Emberthal-magtheridon

Balancing Classes.

Different team.

@Emberthal-magtheridon

Balancing Dungeons.

Different team.

@Emberthal-magtheridon

Maybe some new content, rather than rehashed old content.

Like brand new houses?

@Emberthal-magtheridon

The trading post is already here. I hope you’re not suggesting removing it?
That’s opening a whole new can of worms.

@Emberthal-magtheridon

But they do me.

That’s not a reason for Blizzard not to make a lot of other players very happy.
Sorry.

[Tesladin-draenor]

Yes. In every othwr post you are discussing. In this one. Not.

no, I’m referring to players. People who actually play the game. Not just the interior designers.

Right… So everyone in this thread?
Everyone here does content. Whether it’s world content, dungeons, pvp, raiding.

We’re players too, surprisingly.

We don’t want WoW to ONLY be about housing. Of course we don’t.
That would be very very silly to think.

Yeah it totally needs to be optional. Just creative fun and evergreen so it’s not just a one expansion wonder.

Players have been asking for this for as long as I can remember. I’d love to be able to have my own space to make my own.

[Sinaaki-argent-dawn]

Yes, i’ve seen this request come up alot over the years and i think alot of players would love it. And those that wont can just ignore it.

[Punyelf-draenor (Punyelf)]

The fun thing is collecting is done by players from all sorts of backgrounds, from casual to the full on hardcore 1%. Others have zero interest and that’s fine.

Just like I have no interest in PvP but I’m not chomping at the bit announcing it as bad for the game or any other such nonsense. But people need to stop discussing the nonsense and actually talk about housing

Like I totally get that people didn’t want to have to do the mission tables in any of their formats. I think the Vault is a far better alternative to having to do missions in your order hall for a chance at extra gear.

I actually liked it, when it had the big money missions.
I know I have weird taste though.

I didn’t mind the mission tables until we got to SL and suddenly not all covenants were equal. I was in one of the weaker covenants and getting missions done successfully was a mission

[Sinaaki-argent-dawn]

Yep, i for one is not a collector. Which is why i was a bit meh abt remix at start. But im having fun in the mode, so i play it. If i didnt enjoy it i wouldnt cause im not a collector. Would be the same with housing. If i enjoy it i would use it and maybe go out to collect some stuff i want for my house. And if not id just not do that part. Just like i didnt do plunderstorm, dont do pvp, dont do world quests and so on.

[Clare-argent-dawn (Clare)]

I think SWTOR has a pretty good player housing system. It is instanced and thematic based on larger hubs. Too bad that a lot of the cosmetics depend on microtransactions.

Got to be bliss if you don’t even care about any of the collections. You can just plough all that bronze into upgrades and be the strong super goat!

I just finished collecting every single item

[Sinaaki-argent-dawn]

I am upgrading my evoker, the other chars i use to buy the mounts. I have gotten the mounts i wanted so the rest is just cause i can
