Housing in the game...

[nesrem]

I'm curious about the housing in this game. I see very little information about it and no pictures really. Are they instanced rooms? Are they like the character creation screens? Can others go into them?

I played SWG and that was one of the best features in the game!

An instanced zone yes- there are like the player creation screen and you cant bring your friends in yet

I forgot to mention they are really just used for storage

Ah, well, ok, I figured that's what they were like.

I can't wait for the R2 expansion. They we can have our own instanced domains I guess.

Thanks for the information. A very helpful community I might add

Hi there, SWG refugee here as well. I also miss the house decoration and all the beautifull useless junk I was used to... but this game really shines where it matters. It's stable, complex and subtle.

I used to looooove SWG but it gets boring as heck, but building houses where ever you wanted is by far the best feature on it

I agree, the housing was one of (and still is) the best features of the game. You need some place to put all that junk you collect.

It would be nice for Ryzom to allow players to enter others apartments. Maybe one day.

I kind of like to keep secret what I have in my private stash though

One good thing they did implement in SWG was bookshelves, trunks,etc could now be clicked on and used as storage devices. These counted against your total house limit but they still could be used to store stuff.

I agree, some people did like to wander around your house and look at your resources and what have you but anything you wanted private you could place in your dresser, bookshelf or whatever.

If you RP, the housing and guild halls are a great tool in my opinion. A good place to setup a shop if your a crafter as well.

Another SWG refugee here ... it's just to bad that you can't effectively craft out of an apartment (or so I hear, I'm still using packers for everything and treating their being too full as a sign that I should get rid of things).
