Okey this is actually such a sick approach to housing.
It's not a different approach than any other game with good housing, but the fact that ArenaNet of all studios managed to do this is just mindblowing to me.
It's SO clear that SO much love went into this.
@@TheCooderix I mean, people have been asking for this for a bit, so about time they put some time/love into it lol.
Yes, I don't care much for housing in games as I had it in RuneScape and ultimately u just never go there anymore (except for in OSRS I guess) but this looks sick.
If you can create structures from individual parts, then it sounds like you can make your own jumping puzzles
You could already do so in guild halls (and mount racing scaffolding!), but with the new option to scale items up and down, there are myriad of possibilities, instead of the basic rafts.
Way more features than expected! You can show off everything!
I'm so glad that everything carries over like nodes etc and the auto collect button too is crazy!
@@lechosex6588 maybe true but I have been loosing volatile magic everyday since I never collect my nodes anyway, this is really good for people like me tbh
@@lechosex6588 is that confirmed somewhere? it looked like auto-collector had the ability to use glyphs
@@lechosex6588 You don't, you can see on the box that you have the ability to select glyphs for the auto collect!
Have to admit when the devs of this game decide to do something, they do it so much better than other MMO’s. I remember seeing stuff about the mount system in this game and how it’s the best of any MMO. Now seeing this alt parking thing with housing, I’m thinking why did the devs in my game not do this. Arena Net you’ve earned yourself a new player!
“Just turn into a bee, and fly around” can’t wait
I gasped when he clipped the lamps through the dragon statue to give it glowy eyes. YESSSS! This is the level of flexibility I was hoping for.
Yes, this looks aweseom! I can finally make an actual legendary armory I can show off. Now they only need to add a bookshelf for my Snargle Goldclaw collection and it will be perfect.
Honestly, bookshelves for all various collections would be hot. So many lore books that you could have instead of plain filler bookcases.
@@Dr.Death8520i totally agree. Half of my inventory slots and is filled with books I want to keep from various achieves (like from building my Legys).
A personal library is the only thing that could make this even better, but i think they might add it to this system very soon if it is not already there. Or maybe you need to do an achieve for this as well..
You could even have like folders with your receipes.
Anyways, I definatly support the idea if something of this coming!!
Literally as I expected. They did the best mount system. Now they did the same to housing. I knew they would do it right. Love it so Much!!
its so nice having an actual gamer testing out the game,
you can tell he plays from the way he talks about the game.
a stark contrast from the idiots at IGN :P
cheers PC Gamer, i'm surprised with how extensive this building system is!
Alt parking, mounts parking, wow! This is more than what I expected! Good job!
That's way better than what I expected. Nice
this is exactly what i was hoping for with player housing, Anet really delivered on this one
Thanks Phil! Always love your reporting on GW2, can tell you're an actual player. This looks great!
People excepted small plot with a place for home and we got huge bay area with a massive amount of features. ANet knows what "Gameplay first" means. First mounts and now this.
Looks great so far! :) Hanging out with your other characters is a very nice touch. :)
I had to watch that part of the video twice because I didn't expect it and now it's hard to wait. It's a great idea.
the editor to deco is amazing, really endless posibilities, self statue super too
This is ACTUALLY insanly good. Oh wow good job Anet! Also thanks for covering this!
AUTO-COLLECT HOME INSTANCE NODES
Sign me TF up!
But you lose profits if you do it that way, so good for those who don't care about that...
@@Gurukay Yeah, I got the infinite volatile tools, so I'll lose that.
But then again, if it's one of those days where you have to rush, or just feel too lazy, it's nice to have that option.
@@obsidianchilly There was a "Manage Glyph" option when he used the logging box at 2:40. So my guess is you won't loose any volatile magic or other glyph bonuses, as long as you have them unlocked somehow.
This is insane. I had NO idea it would be this complex or customizable.
My only wish was that we could pick WHERE in Tyria our Homestead was located, even if it was from a selection of different plots throughout Tyria: e.g., Kryta, Maguuma Jungle, Shiverpeaks, Ascalon, Elona, Cantha, etc.
@@ravenramsey3115 I think they may add different locations in the gem store, not in future expansions, but they might do both. I'm pretty sure that this won't be the only homestead location, and we will have alternative choices some time in the future.
@@davidmorris2234 if they give me a tropical place I will pay the money! LOL
You can bet your bottom dollar that there will be 3000 gem locations to buy haha
Looks amazing so far. The only thing I've not seen yet which I think would be cool would be different exterior architecture, Canthan house, Ascalonian house etc. I have a feeling these cosmetic reskins might be put in the gemstore. Or if they were able to add new homestead areas to other places of the game would be a nice touch too. I think this is more far fetched but one can hope.
I LOVE IT!!!! Can't wait!
Also that music piece that is playing is so, so pretty! I love the "Fear not this night" motif incorported in it :D
I love turning into a bee! Such a cute, such a cool, such a small thing that just brings me joy
This looks incredible.
Just like that all my worries about it are gone. GGs Arenanet.
I am so blown away, this is amazing.
The xyz-axis for placement, rotation and scaling, alt parking, mount and skiff parking, home nodes carried over, everything.
This is very exciting, I can't imagine how many hours I will be spending in my own homestead for decorations!
And the auto collect all resources is gonna save plenty of our time in future, I hope the friends in my party can do that as well when they are in my homestead.
Wow, wow, wow. Except for teraforming, which I know is impossible with the current engine, they really included EVERYTHING, I could think of. I couldn't be happier. Huge respect for anet and also great video!
I'm thinking they might be able to makeshift some items/feature to (pseudo) terraform! Like maybe a stone set or grass blocks? Crossing my fingers!!
@@XOCOLACh yes, I think that could be definitely be possible! What I had in mind when I said teraforming was digging a hole to create a lake and rivers and also Crete mountain. But given that you can create a lighthouse I can totally see you creating jumping puzzles!
@@AATproducer Yes! I was aware it was what you meant XD, hence I said 'pseudo' terraforming! Genshin players used this to create levels at their home instance. But yes it's still hard to make a lake, or to dig down, currently just viable to build upwards (or maybe they can stack the main level instead and leaving gaps for pond/pool items then concealing them to make a believable lake/pond ;-;)
Either way, looking forward for ANet to introduce even more features!
Had no idea they'd ever add this much content to the homestead. Entire expansion is just worth it for this alone
reminds me a lot of the housing system of Rift, which i loved so much. Great work, Anet! Very hyped for Janthir Wilds!
OMG Yes. Looks like I'm eading back to GW2
Was legit having a chat with ppl about this an hour ago doing dragon bash. Nobody knew an answer and I'm glad that this gives one. Especially if the guild decorations work in it too!
Hopefully you can later change where the house is in a future expansion. I like thw wilds but I do miss my Rata home at times.
Exceeding expectations! the alts, mounts, and skiff? skin display? FISH TANKS? the tweaking and bee no-clip? 😍 wowow time to buy those last 2 S4 nodes Ive been putting off
Oh boy! I can see myself spending unhealthy amount of time in the Homestead lol
That sounds absolutely amazing! I'm happy how much thought they put into it, and it's really nice that they used a different way to level the crafting.
im really looking forward to this. gonna build many guildhalls and a pretty home for my griffon ladies
Better than I thought it was going to be, so that is a good sign for the Janthir Wilds expansion. That plus the new spear animations for every class, or profession, plus the beautiful new maps, is enough for me to purchase the expansion. Looking forward to Aug. 20th, and hoping that the lore and story will not disappoint.
This is exactly what i wanted! Full freedom of building anything from everything and being able to resize it and move it around. I love it!
The Grove home instance is my favorite. Heathens.
instantly best housing system out there o.O
This looks absolutely amazing- so versatile and player friendly! I just really hope the furniture also have color channels, that'd truly be the icing on top!
This is soo sick! Love the alts, mounts, and skins hanging out in here. Also the decoration controls are huge. A proper 3d editor.
This is really cool! Can't wait!
Anet just destroyed every other mmo’s home system. Awesome job yall!
Yeah. Destroyed. With instance zone which cannot be seen by random players. Sure.
@@OleksandrProkhorovskyi We don't know if that's the case yet, they could reveal it next week.
But yeah, not being able to visit random houses, like you could in Wildstar for example, would be weird, part of the appeal of player housing is creating cool stuff that others can see.
@@dango4ever719 I mean, what in this is unique? It's like they just copy pasted Genshin Impact's Serenitea Pot with some minor adjustments. I was excited for this kind of customized building when Halo 3 came out with forge, but that was almost 20 years ago.
@@SaintOfFire Let's not insult GW2 by comparing anything to do with it with Genshit.
I'm so impressed by this! Anet did such an amazing job on mounts that are better than any other game -- now they're exceeding expectations with player housing! Another reason why Guild Wars 2 if my favourite game. 😍
This far exceeds what I was even hoping for! I truly CANNOT wait! Fantastic job, Anet! We love you!
Best housing system in the MMO market
@@Seb7an the video creator mentioned GW2 true endgame, which is fashion. hahaha
Best? If Rift's wasn't bogged down in item shop, it would be going to Rift.
Rift player housing walked so GW2 housing could run.
@@Seb7an Only if you're a mindless zombie who only gets satisfaction from watching numbers go up :)
@@Seb7an nah man you have no idea what worst end game is, wow is worst end game, and so is ffxiv lmao. gw2 is one of the better ones.
The options to scale, rotate, and set it in the ground is just like Rift. I love it.
Great preview! This looks amazing :)
And thus, the price of all dumb items increases by 1000%
What @@P-ng6vb said. Now's the time to corner the market, while the items are still basically worthless.
Preview video shows new crafting recipes for decorations.
All TP barons: **BUY THE DIP BUY THE DIP BUY THE DIP**
My respects to anet. They're going serious.
I can't wait to try the new housing system.
I'm so freaking excited... everything is so cool auto collect, alt parking , so much furniture addition and tools omg
This is everything I wanted and more from player housing. Well done Anet!
oh this is so cool! im so excited!
this feature is easily 1000s of hours of gameplay, that can always be recreated and done over n over....truely endless endgame n showoff achievement n collections
Between how amazing spears where and now this, Jhantir Wilds is shaping up to be a fantastic expansion!
I can't wait to see what kinds of sick and awesome homesteads players will make this does look good and fun!
This is incredible, they are actually making such a polished expansion! Thanks for showcasing 💫
Absolutely hyped for this!
Sceptical of the build limit as it'll fill up quick with small decorations / independent buildings, hoping we'd be able to increase size with gems or something at some point.
Another big W for anet!
Actually pretty good 👍 loving the fact we finally have a place to show off our wall of legendaries! + Alt hangout!
I hope the overhaul of the editing system carries over to guild halls, because if it does the beetle tracks and jumping puzzles are gonna become even more insane. I'm so hyped
Wow. This is alot more In depth than I was expecting. Looks amazing!
Holy crap I love it! Amazing work!
This is very very nice. Well done Anet
oh my god, this passed EVERY hope I had. I may have set the bar low, yes, but I worried hoping for too much. This blew all of it out of the water, me and my mates are all going nuts.
I didn't expect that player housing will be thought out to this extend. I knew that ArenaNet will deliver. But mount stables, pier and placing in alt characters are a cherry on top. Not to mention that we can allow our friends to decorate our homestead with us.
WOW just look sooooo good, i hope we gonna have a jukebox ( maybe with song to drop on boss and meta event ) :D very nice job
The mount stable got me! I'm so excited!
This is kind of giving me hearthfire dlc vibes from skyrim I love it
Everything about this looks incredible. Zero complaints
Choosing armors / weapons to display is amazing.
Wild, love the improvements
can't wait to see!
I'm really hoping they add some of the decorations from old content, like from dungeons & fractals,
plenty of good assets within those they could make into furniture, so i can make an Asuran house
Oh! So many delightful memories from old Star Wars Galaxy comes to my mind right now, but now made it greater and better! Housing can be an addictive meta-game for many.
Old SOE's CMs encouraged it, making different contests about it showcasing the most beautiful and creative community member's creations.
It's a pleasant, beautiful preview! Thanks Arenanet
one of anet best moves in years. quality over all
I was debating of maxing my home instance, guess the time has finally come 😁
Ok! I'm actually getting a little excited about the housing now. Good job Anet.
this is beyond everything i would have expected
wonderful video thank you!
i didn't expect GW2 player housing to be this good!
Oh this is looking better than expected!
This is incredible!!
This looks... quite amazing
IM LOVING IT
Can't wait for the housing halloween decoration man!!!
This is amazing, why does it remind me so much of how wizard101 housing is today? I wonder if they took inspiration.
The jumping puzzle community is going to go crazy with this one
Wow! So many things that I've asked for!
Well now I'm hyped!
omg!!! i am so excited for this!!!
Arena nets been killing it lately 😅 they been doing so good! So hype
OMGGGGG ALL ALTSS IN THERE UP TO 30 !!!!!! YEAAAAAASSS ANETTTTTT U HIT THE SPOT
That's the perfect number, as I currently have 27 characters (one for each elite spec in the game). It would be great if we could interact with them, and script our own 2 or 3 different responses, limited to a couple sentences.
This is just AMAZING 😍
it was one of my biggest expectations for future content in guild wars (in addition to an archer spellcaster :p), I have at least one that sees the day, big bravo for this incredible and big novelty! :)
THE ALT PARKING IS SO COOL!
suddenly i care about the skins my main can't use !
Hi Tri, nice to see you there! Looking foward to the expansion of GW2 aswell!
alot of other games had it first but i can forgive anet for giving it to us late because its gw2 :v
yeah but if you park your alts at JP chests, bjora, etc then you'll never see them in the home
@@utmastuh this. im not about to lose a practically passive 3-4g daily income so i can see my alts hanging out. hopefully they can make it so they're just there regardless
