Otherwise no, some housing functions could easily be implemented into Guild halls, up to and including bed furniture, and usable furniture, we have examples of that already. The problem is that they're too few to be housing related, and guild halls do not function as the hub they should be. Guild halls not funktioning as the hub they should be is another mayor problem. Last sunday I went exploring the jumping puzzles in our guild hall with some other guildmates. We're halfway through the JP when one player leaves the GH and the instance is closed. Then we were back at the teleporter and no longer in the JP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berserkerkitten.2086 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I picked "I don't know", because "I don't care" wasn't an option. I wouldn't personally use it and have no interest in it, but I also don't see it taking anything away from me if it were a thing that exists.

Chichimec.9364 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Personally the thought of decorating a house doesn't hold a lot of interest for me. However, I do know people who really like that sort of thing. Two of my sisters used to make fun of me all the time for playing video games, until Facebook came out with those cutesy animal games where you could decorate your house and invite others to come and see it. Suddenly both sisters were spending as much time gaming as I did. :) One of my nieces first got introduced to gaming with some kids' mmo where you could decorate your house and hang out in it with your friends. Right now that niece and her mom are spending much of their current lockdown time jointly playing the latest Animal Crossing. My only caveat about introducing such things to GW2 is the amount of developer time involved. Oh, and another thought, rather than a house, I wish they would make the home instance customizable. I would rearrange my resource nodes if I could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trise.2865 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Should there be more options for customizing your personal play habits? Absolutely. Does that mean there must be a virtual dollhouse to play in? No. There's no fault in MMO games being "unfocused", but there are limits to how far that focus can widen before it loses itself; loses sight of its goals and identity.

Whereas many spend their gold and gems into cosmetics and leggies, I spend them into crafting decos in Guild hall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blude.6812 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Glad this has finally came up. It's a great new idea. Housing, you would think that this might have been discussed already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psientist.6437 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 The topic of housing comes up enough to show there is interest. Housing modeled on the home instance and public hubs could resonate so well with the game. I would like to see a network of interconnected public and private hubs with public hubs upgraded through the actions of all players and private hubs upgraded by individual players.

Dante.1763 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 To everyone saying guild halls cant be used properly? You lack imagination. The RP guild im a part of has turned our guild into a resort with private rooms, houses, bars etc. Sure it would be nice if there where more decorations and more variety which is why i say no. Build up the guild hall decoration variety, add more functions(crafters, vendors, etc) to the guild hall and allow for a higher item limit per each hall and more variety of guild halls.

notebene.3190 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 It would be cool if they put their 'spin' on it too, like they did with mounts. Maybe something to encourage you to replay content? Perhaps if you do a certain number of things in a LW map, then those vendors come visit your home for a week, and you have access to their resources (like the 5/day mats), or other small bonuses. Maybe there are styles or decoration types or themes that you can keep your neighborhood setup with if you've completed those objectives. Not too much work, just some way to encourage replaying with maintaining changes to services or what not in your home/neighborhood? But ultimately, 'Yes', and I'd be really interested to see what their 'spin' on it (like mounts) would be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thereon.3495 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 One word- Wildstar. Add housing equal to the housing system of Wildstar and you peak my interest as that was amazing. That being said... I put 'I don't know' as I'm not sure it's a good idea taking more people out of hub maps and guild halls. Maybe the option of a 'guild map' with dedicated, claimable plots for each player to build on and a meeting Hub in the middle? Again not ideal as larger guilds would struggle for space maybe but....hmm.... my mind is racing for ideas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bealis.6023 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 It would be such a wasted energy and time on an unoriginal feature, not to mention people would start to segregate if it was part of a reward system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GW Noob.6038 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I would love to have a smaller, more intimate living space within the home instance. Same thing with the guild halls, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeyteriKiyeri.4207 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Yeah, I would like that. In Aion I had housing en made or bought stuff for it. Add it to the home instance to make it more like home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronos.6532 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Not worth the dev time, IMO, especially as most people would never want to visit your home even if it had a function and wasn't just for decorating. Though I would like to see scribe materials become more valuable, so that part would be good. Maybe for *Guild Wars 3*, though. And if the home instance as it currently is was customizable, I'd totally move all the nodes to the entrance; that would feel pretty good to farm.

juhicha.7683 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Yes please, that would be great to have something else to do apart from neverending battle.

Jimbru.6014 Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 > @"Raknar.4735" said: > Something like Rift/Wildstar housing would be nice. Yes. Whenever housing is mentioned, Wildstar is the example I think of; it's almost the only thing that game did right. A home instance with an actual home that you can stock and decorate and others can visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Housing, you would think that this might have been discussed already. I hope people will be making new threads about this constantly, and I am NOT being sarcastic. :) The more Anet sees these threads popping up, the more it lingers in their mind. And I will post a big YES to Housing in all those threads, with an explanation why I think this is a good idea. Sorry man. Still A+ for sarcasm, I like it.
