Your House?

[Sieg Archaon]

Well i was reading some threads, and i kinda wanted to make this thread.
If it could be possible to build your house somewere in the world of Aion, so really build it, that other players who walk by really see it.
Were would you guys build it? And what would it look like?
I myself would place it on my favorit spot in all games; mountains covered in snow. I would build it somewere in a forest in the mountains, living with nature, having a wolve as a pet
And my house wouldn't look like a castle, i would keep it simple; just a mountain hut.
So that's were i would build it, second choise would be near a waterfall

Nice idea, but I'm afraid that the beautiful landscape is littered with houses. I really don't want to see that. Keep the houses in towns or outposts. Not everywhere

i would find a bug and build a house in a tree

I always preferred the "Hobbit" approach. Give me one under ground with only the door showing. If it is underground I can make it a big/small as I like it.

I really think houses should be instanced, but it would be fun if a person could chose the kind of landscape around their house, like a mountain, a forest or a river, and be able to wander in that medium-small instanced landscape.

If I could any spot I would be close to a creek or a small waterfall with many flowers, hopefully a place semi closed off and surrounded by a small mountain.

I would build mine on the top of a mountian where the only way to get to it would be to fly. but i would actually have a castle that basically WAS the top of the mountian =D
Not one of those scary castles you see in the movies, but like a really nice clean nice looking castle with the towers and the flags and the whole bit. =D

I'd build it on a flying isle, near a pond or a river slowly changing into a waterfall falling into space(or the other Asmodian side so they get soaked :3).

Hmm, idk, something about 5,000 people on the server each having their own house scares me.. Sure they could be made in the sky, on the ground, or even underwater (if they make it a possibility), but I'd like to see it kept to Guild Housing..Of course I have no problem with each player having their own, I think it'd be cool, but that's a lot of houses..And I think all housing should be out of the way of the game, and not interfere

K I had posted this observation in my earlier post but took it off thinking it wasn't too relevant, But now I'm going to go ahead and say it anyway.. I highly doubt this would happen as it's proven to be a mistake in older mmos, this thread is more fanciful then practical imo. Right? I think..

Though I like Elphaba's Devout's idea of instanced housing where you can walk into the house's yard instead of having just a door that leads to the inside of a house, it should be like a gate similar to GW, that let's you inside the 'courtyard'. It'd be extra neat if we had building tools and we could build any type of house we'd like with selectable scenery..

I agree with you, the last thing I want to see is a landscape littered with houses.

You could have zoned Housing development areas, where you can walk in and build a house on a specific kind of land. Say one housing site has 100 houses in it. Each area zone can be based on price. Expensive areas mainly for guilds or clans.
Or you could just have instanced floting islands. The bigger the island the more money you pay the more features you can purchase to put on it. (Eg. Mountain, waterfall, pond, trees ect ect)
I wouldn't like to see houses in the persistant world though. Would look unsightly I think.

I would build it in a busy town or outpost to use as my personal shop to sell of my crafting items.

[Katsuro]

I would build a perch with automatic machine guns on it AND GIANT ROCKS HANING FROM IT and i would sleep on it like snoopy sleeps on his dog house...MACHINE GUNS!!!
