Some details on housing from Massively.com:

Curious about Black Desert's sandbox pedigree? We are too, and it looks as if the newly announced Korean import from Pearl Abyss isn't skimping when it comes to player housing.

The game's Facebook fanpage revealed that players will be able to purchase all of the houses in the game's cities and towns. That's not all, as you can also turn part of your humble abode into a shop or a crafting area as well as create furniture and cabinets to store your valuables. Pearl Abyss seems to be aiming for lively cities and towns, as it will not allow players to build houses anywhere in the open world, though temporary tents are an option.

I have been saying on this site for years that THIS is the BEST way to do housing in a MMO that you could possibly do.

Glad someone is finally going to do housing in a MMO correctly. If they pull off the rest and make the game not suck terribly, the housing done this way would be reason enough for me to check this game out.

Yes, I completely agree, and it does sound great.  But, let us not forget, that oftentimes these great sounding features tend to get cut or dumbed down or otherwise diminished between first-detailing and release.  Hopefully, they will really do it and start a new trend of housing, but there's still a long time for this game's developers to start stripping and cutting those on-paper features.

I can't count the number of times where developers give details to some great-sounding feature, then scrap it sometime during/before beta because they either don't want to bother with it or don't have time for it.

Where is the Game Listing on MMORPG.com?

Pass.

I'm having a lot of trouble overlooking that aswell. The game looks good and the concept is really good, but it's a shame it isn't being made by a western developer.

Racism? That's all I can think of because the worlds art design isn't even eastern, and most of the characters in the preview don't look Asian.

We are two now, and it is nothing about racism, but this is the kind of game with very beautiful scenes and models but I can assure the features won't be more than what we already have seen. Look at the combat, it looks Dragon Ball Zish.

Calling a game rubbish because you don't enjoy that game type isn't really objective.  I hate open ended sandbox style games, but I don't call them rubbish.  They are just not my cup O tea.

It's not objective to pass on a game simply because it's Korean and you don't like the past ones. That's like saying that since the last movie you saw was bad, you will pass on every movie to ever come out because you assume that they will all be just as bad. It ignores the very fact that most if not all of the developers working on this MMO are different people from those who developed past Korean MMO's.

Pass on every Korean MMO made, because they haven't made one you like yet, so they obviously never will, because Korean's are incapable of making MMO's that you like.

That's extremely subjective, and racist.

Wrong analogy IMO.  Its more like watching Step Up and then passing on every dance movie thereafter, which is perfectly fine because you realize that type of movie isn't your cup of tea.

LoL just thinking the same thing.  I see Korean and it's an instant pass... 

Korean and Sandbox has become terms that lead to massive instant passes.

somebody should make a thread about that...
