They have housing in GW2 too en i like it and then craft your own furniture.
I would love to see my alts in there too
Great. Now I can cry myself into sleep in my own little virtual room too.

Looking forward for all people starting to already dream about every insignificant things to be added to this and then cry a river when it’s live because it will be delivered un-finished or with a weird progress idea behind it.
It will either be FF14 shop or Runescape with a bunch of items.
That happened many years ago in WoD and never recovered.
But it does for the most part.
That’s full on wrong and not the case in any other MMORPG with housing.
Nah. In ESO for example it’s all real money store nonsense and people just use it to drop all their sentimental vendortrash into it. Very, very few people actually make a good home out of it.
Indeed. One might hope Blizzard will one day rediscover how an MMO works, but they’re doing a very good job of demonstrating that they have absolutely not the foggiest just since last summer alone.
WoW is still a good game without being an MMO, but it would be a substantially better one of it were.

I suggest visiting a city in FF14 and comparing how populated it feels compared to Wow.
IMO the reason the open world in WoD was so empty feeling was because there was next to no reason to visit the open world - thanks to a chronic lack of content.

I am happy about it.
Still missing the Tinker/tech based class though. 
Oh i do no disagree at all just saying that player housing will change nothing in my mind anything.
Every game is different. Just because it works in some it doesn’t mean it will work in this one.
But ok, optimism is a positive trait, i give you that.
I hope it will be like EQ2.
A single room flat for 1000g
And better housing for 100.000, 1.000.000 …
No dont give them ideas, token sales will go off the roof with this. Im already broke after buying few enchants now

Yay, another mechanic to complain about!
We can make complaints up for years before the damn thing even comes out!

I squealed with excitement when they “suggested” player housing in the stream. It was only later when they actually confirmed it that I “believed” 
My first MMO was Ultima Online where there was player housing and it was brilliant - partly because you could find a piece of open world land to stake your claim, pay in-game currency to buy a set plot size out of a choice of several and then actually BUILD your home using wall pieces, floor pieces, doors, windows, roofs, stairs etc and partly because you could furnish it with items you made through crafting - placing where you wanted - and you could set a vendor in it if you wanted, so that others could buy and sell.
I’m not sure WoW could cater for that. I think it’s more likely there may be a set location/locations with a portal into your instanced home - ideally like the old Class Halls from Legion I think?
If they do it right, you’d be able to decorate it based on your achievements. I really hope it’s not rigidly structured like the Garrison though and that there will be a huge amount of options.
I’m also really hoping they do Guild housing too … I understand WHY they’d do player housing - because some people may not be in guilds - but guilds really need some love. They were even mentioned several times in their stream tonight, but it feels like Blizzard have ignored guilds for far too long - if they’re making player housing, having guild halls too isn’t a great leap and would help maintain the “MMO” side of things.
I’m interested to see how they balance having people out in the open world/cities and having people able to enjoy and find player housing useful. Perhaps it could just be somewhere you could set a hearthstone to, but that also had a portal room to one or two main cities for access to the auction house and crafting tables, for example.
The questions is.
Will we be able to place items freely?
Can I place a vast set of doodads with different backgrouds to make a jumping puzzle?
If I can’t make a jumping puzzle it is not customizable.
Prediction: We will not be able to place items freely.
It will go the way of garrisons.

Congratulations for all those who wanted it
I don’t.
I do hope this is opt in rather than forced and cosmetic only with nothing that can give game advantage.
