Well I wanna say , I am aware you are running a business, and trying to encourage players to upgrade their houses by designing desirable furniture to make it look tempting. Honestly from a feedback of players that has experience with game , with current state of housing they dont really care about it , this will cause your designing effords of new furniture wont pay back.
The fun of housing might seem shining in forum at the moment, but its just because its pretty new, just like pirate ship guildhall. Its temporary
The idea is fun and its popular because its new, but for an average player there is no space to use their furniture, or to store them. Even if you design some shiny cool looking ones and sell it like avengers vanities on limited time, it wont be tempting for many simply because they cant do much with it.
But if you allow them to be able to use diffent furnitures with great space of almost unlimited combinations, people will be more interested in it. then you can make sustainable profit out of designing furnitures in future like vanity business.
I also enjoy the idea and support it, but at this state my hands are bound, i cant desgin house with 5 furniture. I hope you guys can see this outcome too.
Sincerely
- increase the space for house decor
at least make 10 when opened house
cap decor house can be 100.. 25 is very small space
not worth to spend plat on 25 space :(- arlor house! there can be house where all players can join there ( like towns )
- buy decor space with cryostar tokens
- no one is able to see the stash box on your house
because yasterday i had big party on my friend house and they kept try open it
And there was 300 messege ! annoying!
Thank you!
All i want to change is the outside of the house, looks horrible
The housing reminds me of sims andanimal crossing
But ya I second that motion on a garden or something to make the house look less eerie with the black void around it
Houses are too dependent on plat right now, don't you think so? We need some way to buy furniture slots so I can fill my house with bee- I mean, so we can get more stuff for our houses. Frankly 1 chair and 1 table with beer and candles on it aren't very attractive.

Indoor plants would be fine too! Flowers and trees indoors!
1. The upkeep should be lowered - those who spend 1k plat on a tavern shouldn't have to pay such high rent fees. If you do it alone, that's $80 a month in rent for pixels! If this is not an option, there should be an option to for players to donate estate tokens for upkeep (not the ones that cost plat). That way, those who enjoy other people's houses can help contribute towards maintaining it. Alternatively, there should be more ways to farm for estate tokens.
2. The black hole void as the backdrop needs to be removed and replaced with something else. Hopefully, Housing 2.0 can work on that. Let the backdrop have customization similar to housing as well!
3. Housing is too plat dependent. That is fine, but there should be options for platinum players to sell houses or platinum exclusive related housing things to the general public. That way, if you really enjoy housing (such as myself) you can farm and purchase your house.
4. Housing items should also be sold as components. For example: beds. If their components were broken up and sold for platinum and could be allowed to be put together, it would allow players to create some really awesome looking beds!
Would be nice if we could join other players' houses if they aren't on our friends' list. I really wanna go to a tavern but I don't have a friend who has a tavern ...
And a garden outside, with a driveway and a mailbox at the end would be nice. I wanted flowers to put in my vase tbh. And it would be funny if our pets had somewhere to sleep .-.
And for us to be able to get more story tokens. I mean, 60 story tokens for 2 estate tokens per week is a bit much, don't you think? We won't have enough story tokens to buy anything else.
Btw, would be awesome if we could see whose house we were in. For example, "Starter house, Tippertwo's house." Same for cottage, etc. It is really confusing and quite awkward if you don't know whose house your friend is in, his friend's , or his own, and you join him to find that he's having a private discussion with his friend. Right now we kinda have to guess which house we're in, and it gets embarrassing.
I would love to donate for the upkeep of party...um, hangout places!
First of all... The plat prices are a little to high? 1000 plat for a tavern when it does benefit you in any way but look at it.
I would also want another house bigger than the 25k one that can be purchased for gold like 500k maybe.
The rent with story tokens will be hard to keep up with becuase you also need tokens to use on the new pet stuff. So it's getting kinda hard to be able to do that.
5 furniture slots is VERY sad. A mug,candle, table,chair and a painting. That's sad as well. Can the furniture slots be purchased with plat and be tradable?
Fix the black void to something more appealing
A place to play with your pets :):):)
I have seen the wall dividers. But what's the purpose of it if you can walk through it and it doesnt divide :/
The stash chest, Is tbis only available for 250 plat. Many people asked for this and it was what I was looking forward to
Overall good job o.o
The big glass stain windows ive seen in Guildhalls! I always thought they look cool the effect for it and I want one in my house :):):):):):):):)
Wahahahhhhaha
-Welcome Message (MOTD like)-
-Change the black void outside the house- ( we can pick of a theme EX: winter/summer/spring/fall)
-Low Rent FEES-(make the upkeep payments monthly not weekly) do you know how much will cost us?
-Other colorful Stuff for the house-( all i can see is green,brown,white)
-House stash cannot be click by visitors- (it's annoying when they try to open it "spamming"
-Pets will be automatically dismissed-
-A bigger House can be purchase by gold (the 25000g was too small and make it atleast 10 slots for furnitures)
-House Chat Colour-
1. Welcome Message announcing the owner's name when we "VISIT" a house.
2. Ability for friends to use house-items without needing the presence of the owner.
3. What exists in Arlor that we would like to decorate with? - Flower Pots. Think I saw some in Garetta. Vases should have flowers in them. They could be decor items and also gift items for friends.
4. House slots for gold.
5. More Musical items and more dancing moves. :P
I'd like to say I am happy with most of STS's latest releases, current decisions, ideas, implementations. My suggestions are just minor tweaks for refinement but its almost perfect without tweaking too. Thanks for the new systems!:loyal:
Maybe you should a put the name of the owners house,I know its just a smal problem but I think its a great idea to identify who's house is this
It's currently far too plat dependent. I don't mind dropping 1k plat for the biggest house, but the upkeep is insane. Currently I've just been visiting other peoples houses and it does look great. When I get mine, it will just be the smallest 25k one since it's maintainable with daily story log in. I would like to see cheaper estate fees or just get rid of it, and also would like to be able to hang my vanity sets on the wall or in cases.
The low amount of items per house really limits the creativity. I enjoy using pieces in unique ways and overlapping items...I quickly hit max and can't even buy more slots.
More more more...double it..at least!!
See overlapping items to create bar below.

Also...consider rent is paid by month. This allows for 4 weekly estate quests & a month of story token collecting. This will at least seem more reasonable. Otherwise, it's cover charge time. :)
This is what I want :
Like 70% of the game uses the starter house right now , it needs more furniture slots . I can't decorate my house with 5 pieces of furniture I can't even do anything creative with it lol . Make it at least 10-15 .
That black void of nothingness outside my house looks horrible . Atleast add something out there ( not to much ) also , why is the wall of my house missing? Maybe something can be done to that..
Houses cost insane amounts of plat , and I'm OK with that ( you need to make money after all ) and huge houses cost huge mounts of tokens to keep... and you will HAVE to use plat in order to keep a tavern in use. And all that for a place that does not benefit you more than the guildhall , only the gh is free , has no upkeep , has a free stash , is bigger and it has a cheap potion vender . Maybe giving some exclusive features to each house can be a nice idea for the future
Also , I want to hang all of those banners I got over the years in my house XD I bet all of the players who play for 3 years + have well over 15-20 banners from events or lb that they can't really use . ( Should not take furniture slots , how is a banner on the wall considered "furniture"
those shuyal floating lanterns look awesome , maybe add them for planar fragments ? Xd
how about .... MANNEQUINS....there will be 3 types... war/rouge/mage.... we can put vanities and weapon on it and dress it up as a doll for others to see.!!! good idea no?
I posted my opinion in another thread. Housing is nice. But upkeep I'm not to fond of. It's like renting..and the feeling of owning the property isn't to popular. I'll be sticking with my guild options.
I don't log in as much and even to sustain a very expensive home. If you are treating this game like animal crossing, (you need to try it) when you purchase the home it's yours...and not constantly renting what you paid for.
As it stands it's a nice addition, more options are great..like eating and gaining some additional power ups would be great to...like earing gold for daily log in or gaining potions to make befor you head out. I did see an alchemy table on one of the homes..so maybe letting us farm for our potions/armors/and pet leveling food would be great to...how about a vanity construction area?
Anyway..to sum it up..we need to own our property...not renting something we buy with plat. Creating items we need within the home would be a benefit. And even making our own vanitys would be nice.
Housing system doesnt affect anything in gameplay, guildhall is larger than it. In the guildhall I can find Poison seller, stash, and portal to the cities. IMO kinda weird there is a disco ball, dance and etc. Is it being dance game now? Arlor have changed too much. Rather than this system, you can put all your effort in the weekly event, upcoming big event, renewing the tomb (watcher tomb for example), refreshing the city, fix the pvp system, and etc.
I like that variety is being added to the game. It attracts more players. And if you dont like it, dont use it imo. But if you do like it, isnt it great that it is there to enjoy!! I will say no one likes to pay rent, usually. So if rent has to be necessary please just add other ways to pay it and make it a little less painful (not cost so much).
Just my thoughts....and the rest of the suggestions in this thread are pretty on point too. Keep up the great work Sts!
1. It would be nice if you can put leaderboard somewhere on the wall.
2. Stash is usefull, but make it only visible for the owner
3. New dancing moves, including pets( if owner is dancing, pets make some tricks )
4. Owners achivements somewhere on the walls, like pvp banners or event banners
Armor stands / mannequins so we can display our collectables og whatever people want to show, i personally have way more items than i ca wear, and even though i am very happy to own each of the pieces i have i would like to have them displayed in my house instead of hiding them in my stash.
It would be very great if you would lower the fee for those who bought big houses, and now need to pay plat each week to keep them up. It does say BUY a house, and not RENT at the Arlorian Estates.
It would be very nice if we could see what the items looks like when browsing things for our houses, in CS.
At last i would like to see more furniture slots, in all houses. One can easily fill the house slots, since most of the items looted, are very small, but nice imo, but its just sad to place 2 cups on a table, and then have 3/5, then a chair= 4/5 and well... yea the house looks empty.
I am a great fan of housing though ;)
small house should be upgradable to bigger ones
Suggestions:
1. Upkeep is little too high as many have said. It needs to be lower or create more quest or drops from bosses, so we can all farm more estate tokens.
2. Any basic home bought initially must have more slot than it currently have. There's just not enough. And the price for buying extra slots are too expensive.
3. Which is what IMO is what the majority of the players wants. Make the ELITE MOBS we kill to grant us their trophy heads as a non tradable furniture, so we can hang on the wall or display it anywhere in the house/home. I think the amount of kills should be at least 500 ELITE bosses kill to get their heads. It's better than th current AP that's available. This way it shows what you have accomplished and display to All can see.
4. There should be a personal CS in each establishment if the owner chose to have one by paying 1000 plat. This way, the owner can put his gears/items on sale so others who join can see what he has for sale. And only those items are in that establishment by the owner. (and/or can also implement where the owner can let other list their items also, to make him a real merchant without shouting out loud) This way, every Establishment will have a unique inventory of what is being sold. This way, it will make whoever that is famous or more popular. Word of mouth advertisement goes a long way. And the one that can't afford it , they can still use the CS.
Upkeep is to much the average player wont be able to afford imo and there is just way to much upkeep in game alltogether between the dailys and pet system quests etc etc its just way to much i liked simple arlor. Its getting alil complicated nowadays im so lost on farming and crafting lately. I think if your not gonna remove the upkeep system at least have the option to pay for it in gold instead of just estate tokens
I hope we can sell houses too. :livid:
Upkeep after spending 1k plats (80 pounds) for absolutely nothing of value is wrong.
1. No upkeep or forget about my money,
2. Whoever owns a house should have stash slots increased. Its ridiculous that i still have 250 slots shared between 15 chars.
3. Let us hang our banners on the wall.
4. Including house decorative items in locks will make me less prone to spend more money on this game as ill get less chances getting what i want.
5. Houses should benefit players in some way, there should be a bonus that lasts specific amount of time. Otherwise, i dont really see the point in having one.
Just for the record, it might've been a smarter idea to upgrade to houses first, then do the double plat offers, not offers first then houses. In my opinion that's just dumb, just saying.
Upkeep lowered for all houses
Do you REALLY need that much plat? everything is plat dependant.
More slots for furniture, 5 makes one quite mediocre house
I'm a noob. Every time I log in they try to sell me a house. Why do I want a house? What is the advantage?
-Not being able to walk through furnitures like wall drivers etc
-Make pets dance too :)
-Furniture like doors that can open and close so you could build rooms (need not to be able to walk through furniture first)
The upkeep definitely needs to be lowered or removed. Any game I've played that had housing has always just used Gold for upkeep, if it even had upkeep at all.
Furniture slots need to be increased. What's the point of a house if most of it is empty?
I'm not spending Platinum on a completely pointless feature that doesn't benefit me at all. Give me some benefits for buying a house. A personal Alchemy table that gives discounted Potions like the vendor in the Guild Hall. A personal crafting station that gives a small reduction to crafting times. A pet food station that can slowly generate free food.
As it is, Housing is a huge waste of time and serves no purpose. I think some more thought should have been put into it before it got released.
The black/blue universe around and the open wall in front where we feel like falling out of our house is not very cosy. I would like our houses to be accessible from townes with the town specific surroundings like pl Humania or swamps houses:
