  Community Spotlight: The Norrathian Homeshow  [ 2 Comments ]
Print News | Mail News | Category: General News - Vault News - Official News
One of the most fascinating things about MMO's are the little things people will do within the game to make it more of 'their own.' Take housing, for example; many use their house as simple vaults and never put much effort into the decorations. There are those select few though, who go beyond the basics and spend hours designing their homes to fit a certain theme. In today's spotlight, we stop to take a look at a few designs, and share some inspiration for us all to roll up our sleeves and start rearranging our own furniture.

See some of the really well done homes over at EQ2Players Norrathian Homeshow

Last week the folks at Destructoid.com had a Photoshop contest themed for Echoes of Faydwer.

What do you Think of the new Fae race coming?
I think they'll be cute
I think they will be interesting
I will be playing one as my main!
I still think a Fae is a Fairy...
Fae? Huh?
I really don't like the idea of the Fae.
