    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.

    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.

    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

    -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!

    Yes, because it's really hard to do /Host Or /h, there is already something like that.

    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

    Expanding on this, I agree that mannequins to put armour and vanities would be an interesting idea, possibly even being an extra storage segment.
    Another thing I think would be interesting is a stable, as in the actual stable somewhere in the house (most likely the larger ones), where we can see the pets move around or interact with them for happiness bonus.

    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.
