More use for personal houses everywhere
-
The last couple tests I haven't claimed a house plot (and I'm a governor), because it's useless to me, except for storage (which the bank helps with).
I'd suggest reworking all decorative house items to provide bonuses:
- First, sleeping in your own bed gives you a "well-rested" buff of some kind (duration and intensity modified by type/quality of bed)
- Furniture and decorations (like mounted animal heads) may augment that with very specific buffs
You'd have "slots" for those kinds of decorations, so only X per house.
Ultimately, I'd like to see houses with furniture and decorations that match the playstyle of the toon, so an enchanter's house would look different from a smith's house which would look different from a mage's house, and so forth.
This would mean that while players could go to distant taverns to adventure, their best work would be done from home.
(All the same, I'd also like to see decoration in taverns work much the same way, but be balanced so that a home is still better.)
For that matter, I'd love to see appropriate, buff-providing decoration options for -all- crafting buildings. These wouldn't be based on sleep, but on auras: so while inside the building, you get buffs related to the crafting.

And from other Alpha's I have been part of, this is actually pretty smooth with a lot of 'stuff' already. I am sure this is just a glimpse into the depth the Dev Q&As and what not eludes too.With that-
Your desire seems legit. Right now I have a plot, outside the city with two houses on it. What for? Not really sure now. I am nearly "linked" to the city anyways for crafting any useful items. Only benefit off city plots have right now is you can rest memorize. So, a 2x2 with a fireplace. Other than that, storage.

@Roccandil I really want us to be able to make head mounts as stuff for houses. Hang that deer head up on my wall.
