Guild Wars 2

It has surely been mentioned a million times before in a million other threads. The home instance plays such a small part in this game at this time that it might as well not even exist.

Anet has added the quarts crystal node reward to home instances and that was a good step but not enough. With no public plans to better the home instance and utilize it, I would like to also suggest player housing to be added to the home instance.

Furniture such as weapon and armor chests, armor display manikins and weapon displays could be crafted or purchased in the gem store.

Trophies of your achievements can be awarded and displayed in this instance. Maybe this housing can be upgraded from a shack or shed to a house to a grand hall or something as players become more wealthy or reach different achievement tiers.

This would give players more to work towards at 80 other than a legendary item, add more to the gem store, utilize the home instance and possibly even add a new craft to the game (probably not though lol)!

(as a side note, I know this has been mentioned before but I could not find anything using the search function. I would like to know what the community thinks of this idea, please try not to focus on “there are other threads.”)

I really want player housing, and it always made sense to me to connect it with the personal story. Then at least you would have a reason to repeat the later, generic parts on all your characters, rather than stopping after the racial and order chapters.

Yet another thread about housing. Still no Anet response about this . Because let’s be honest , apart from collecting Quarts, what is the reason to go back to Home Instance now ?

EXACTLY! It has no purpose and that’s a darn shame! They made a big deal about how choices you make will make a difference and they use the example of your personal instance. Well I have not entered that thing since The Personal story made me and that just doesn’t seem right. We might as well not have it if that’s how its gonna be. Give us player housing and a reason to go in there! Give us more in the game that will effect that.
