All the “Other” Stuff: Housing, Crafting, and Roleplaying
For those for whom big numbers on the character sheet are merely nice decoration, WildStar also allows for creative expression. The game boasts one of the most celebrated housing features, where creativity knows no bounds. From thousands of items that can be freely moved in size and position (yes – completely freely!), every dream of owning a home can be realized.
Whether it’s a cozy tavern, a dark laboratory, or a noble palace, every housing project is guaranteed to be unique.
To be “that one friend” who knows every recipe of their profession, you also need to invest some time in the game. If you have a lot of platinum, you can buy most materials from the auction house, but crafting vouchers still need to be earned daily at the crafting stations around the world.
Especially the profession of architect is suitable, as many players enjoy getting lost in housing and are willing to pay high sums for the more challenging decorations – or offer eternal gratitude if one generously distributes a few among friends.
If you don’t want to know about any of this and want to try something a bit “fancier”, you might be tempted to have an evening filled with role-playing. The lore of WildStar is fresh, and whether in German or English, on the mega server Jabbit, you can find plenty of like-minded individuals to delight with the highly dramatic story of your own character.
Apart from these activities, there are plenty of little things to occupy your time in WildStar. Discoveries lure with special pets, various challenges provide dyes for coloring clothing, lore objects await in the world telling the story of the planet, and almost everywhere there are little secrets to discover if you just keep your eyes open.
In summary, we can say that WildStar has a lot to offer – you just have to get familiar with the various contents to ultimately find what suits you best.
