vacuuming: a poor housekeeping debuff?

ok, so you have  house. wouldn't it be fun for you to have to vacuum it? for you to have to do the dishes after you use your awesome pot?

you could have a debuff for too much time spent outside if your chores aren't done.

the bigger your house, the more housework you have to do.

someone has to clean all those window in alakol!

wouldn't that be fun?

  • No thanks, I really don't see any fun in chores and losing points.

  • Me neither. This ranks up there with filing taxes/getting audited, in-game lawsuits, mortgages, and the Ur Highway Patrol and MSHA as "fun" that really isn't.

  • it might be realistic ... but not really my idea of fun. :P 
    your mileage may vary.  Maybe you should be a vacuum business tycoon!

  • I'm really glad that my house doesn't run down or my crops wither when I'm not home.  Been there, done that with Farmville.  Guess what game I'm *not* spending time in right now?  It's bad enough that pigs die when not fed, but at least the other animals aren't a problem that way.

  • Fun? o_o
    Housework is not my idea of fun! lol  
    I do enough of that in real life, would rather not have to worry about it in game as well.

  • Presumably flask doesn't have to do housework in real life.

  • Ooh - I was about to jump in with a 'noooo - not *my* idea of fun', but then I thought - one of those floor cleaning robots would be ace; it could trundle 'round the house picking up loose items on the floor & slot them in available spaces in the cupboard/ bags in the cupboard, if any.

    ok, ok... I just want a robot! :D

    Don't much like the idea of house maintenance requirements though; it's one of my least favourite aspects to LOTRO, although I do see how it frees up real estate for active accounts.
