At PAX East, Carbine Studios revealed their first Dev Speak trailer, which gave us a detailed look at WildStar’s housing system. This feature is much more than simply decorating a floating island space home. Player housing is woven into all aspects of the game and rewards players with conveniences like personal training dummies, crafting workbenches, and raid instance portals. Sure you can decorate your abode to your heart’s content, but the fact that your home base adds tangible functionality that will really sell this feature to players. You can grow your own crafting materials in a garden and allow friends to harvest it for your if you go away on vacation!

Seriously, it’s that awesome.
