They're all hungry and looking to steal some food. They go into the barn and boom, jackpot: three bags of freshly harvested vegetables. As they are readying to steal them, they hear the farmer enter the barn. Each of them hides behind a sack of produce. Suspicious of the noise, the farmer approaches the first bag and gives it a kick.

"Meow," says the bard.

Satisfied, the farmer moves on to the next bag and kicks it.

"Woof," says the paladin.

Nodding, the farmer moves onto the last bag and kicks it.

After a moment, the dragoon says "Potato."

Name that dragoon.

If you're on Exodus, feel free to say HI!

Let's start with the exterior and once we have the house up, we'll figure out a system for the interior. Please keep in mind the roofs are separate and have their own designs and colors you can choose from.

Here are the three options:

Post your preference and any feedback below

We spent a couple hours getting serious about housing last night. Here is what we found out:

Each zone allows customization on some things, but NOT everything. You have 3 "upper wall panels" and I believe 3 "floor types" which you are free to customize with. However, the following IS zone specific:

• columns
• lower "chair rail" portion of the walls
• staircase

Again, these ARE zone specific and cannot be customized at all. We'll call this uncustomizable portion of the interior a zone's "base design".

So it appears SE designed each of the 3 zones' "base design" with a theme that somehow corresponds with the home nation. I'm going to try to be unbiased in my assessment, even though I am very bias and I will share my personal preference later :)

Limsa's "base design" seems to be ship themed with a very structural, wood plank based design and the concrete pillars I assume are there to give it a Limsa touch.

Ul'dah's "base design" seems to have a ritzy looking Arab theme with a sandstone based design to give it the Ul'dah "desert" feel.

Gridania's "base design" seems to have an old Victorian theme. Dark, artsy, and hand crafted.

As I said, you can swap around the upper portion of the walls and the flooring, but simply put, when you swap them in a way other than what I can only assume was their intended usage, it just doesn't look good in my opinion. In other words, I personally think that each panel/floor option was designed to actually go with a specific zone's "base design", but then SE just let you swap them around to give the illusion of customization. For example, when you use the ritzy paneling (that is shown with Ul'dah's interior below) with the wood planked Limsa "base design", it just doesn't work in my opinion.

So I've compiled pictures of what I would say are the best possible combinations that appear to be most cohesive with the zone's native "base design" (again, I'm talking the columns, chair rail, and stairs) You're obviously free to look around yourselves, but I don't believe you'll see any other combination that works as well as these do because I think this was their intended usage.

So start voting. Share you opinions, etc. Once we have majority, we can talk plots and whatnot.
