I'm looking to renovate the Housing system this summer for one reason and another, so I'd like to hear your opinions before I try to tackle it.
Generally, I need to know if you like the housing system as it is now, or if there's anything you'd change.
Specifically, I want to know:
- Do you willingly buy homes for your characters, or do you do this simply because you have to under the "have IC=buy OOC" rule?
- If you bought a home willingly, what do you find appealing about your character owning a house?
- Do you willingly post threads for your character's homes, or do you do this only because you're supposed to under the housing rules?
- If you did so willingly, what was it you found appealing about having a thread for your character's home?
- If your characters have ever moved home, did you upgrade because you wanted to, or only because they outgrew the home they previously owned?
- If you moved them willingly, why did you want to?
Names for the housing options may change as well to keep up with setting evolution. (For instance, Kiel owns a small apartment, but instead of a one-floor flat his place is spread over two storeys so the term "small apartment" doesn't really fit his place and I'm looking to widen the scope of the options.) If you have any suggestions for this, or just want to say if you like or dislike the current options, that'd be great.
Also, I'll be looking at adjusting the pricing for houses, too, so any input you have will be helpful. (I don't want to only hear "lower the prices!" though )
Thank you for your time!
