World of Warcraft jabs with housing plans in Final Fantasy 14

Player housing is coming soon World of WarcraftAnd, Blizzard first introduced how MMO will handle it. In a new preview, the WOW team browsed early details and even made a quick poke to Final Fantasy XIV housing in the process.

World of Warcraft is Add a popular housing feature In the upcoming expansion of World of Warcraft: Midnight. Among its pillars and housing goals Recent development blogBlizzard has listed “Everyone's Home” as one of its goals.

“As part of our focus on widespread adoption, we want to make sure that housing is available to everyone. If you want a home, you can own it,” Blizzard said. “No high demands or high purchases, no lottery, and no Heavy maintenance (If your subscription fails, rest assured that your home will not be taken back!).”

Essentially, the player's housing sounds like this: the player can buy physical houses in these MMO worlds and have enough personalization and decorative space for other players to visit. This is a very popular aspect of Final Fantasy XIV Leads to theater productions, nightclubs, cafes and museums.

Of course, Final Fantasy XIV also has some notorious housing dilemmas. Each server has a limited number of drawings, you have to pay a lot of Jill and enter the lottery, then Risk of demolishing a house If you are alone for too long.

According to Final Fantasy XIV, World of Warcraft’s goals seem to oppose some concerns about housing. Even shared housing in the squad, so characters can come and go, and rewards can be shared on the characters and factions. While human characters cannot buy houses in the tribe area, the troll characters in the team can be used and then the characters can use it.

Furthermore, while World of Warcraft housing will be divided into only two housing areas and “communities” of about 50 plots, they are instantiated and have both public and private choices. The former is maintained by the game server and created as needed, so there are no clear restrictions yet.

The blizzard seems to be the same as the World of Warcraft housing for a long time. The team, on its prescribed pillars, is with “unlimited self-expression” and “deep socializing,” he said, hoping that housing will be a “lasting journey” of its own roadmap and updated to future patches and extensions. Of course, it feels like a promise, and despite its pokes and pokes on XIV's system, it also shows that Blizzard has realized the trap.

From now until the expected summer unveiling of World of Warcraft: midnight, there are more details to be addressed.
