Star Wars: The Old Republic News - A Hint at Player Housing?

Posted by Michael Bitton on Aug 26, 2009  | 70 comments in our forums

SWTOR-Station.com have a short preview of Star Wars: The Old Republic (in German) describing some of the things they heard at Star Wars: The Old Republic demo at GamesCom. One bit that stood out in particular was the mention of player housing, something I don't think any of us were expecting to be included in Star Wars: The Old Republic.

As translated over at the Darth Hater blog:

And this article will also contain the following information we heard at the demo cinema the last day. As the typical MMO features of the game were enumerated not only PvP, auction houses and crafting were mentioned, but also housing was part of this list. You can imagine that we stared at each other in disbelief! Nothing has been confirmed yet, but it’s a good hint at the fact that conventions make you tired and even BioWare employees let something slip out then.

Could we really see player housing in Star Wars: The Old Republic? I don't see why not. After all, with as ambitious (and expensive) as the project seems to be, why not go for broke? More features? Yes, please!
