I know this has been mentioned before in one form or another, but I can't find it in the forum.
Some people have asked about having roommates, or shared housing or families.
We have been told group lodges are in the future. All of those are great, but I'm hoping we get a spare key to our homes that we can exchange with another player-- the idea being that even if I am offline, said friend can stop by, water the plants, feed the pigs, plant a few veggies of their own in my garden and take in the view. I, in turn, can go to their house, play with the fireflies, scrape a barnacle, and plant a few herbs.
Yes, I want remote region connections. From Alakol to Shimla... or wherever.. a spare key to my house that I can loan to a friend for a game week, with either a currant price, energy cost or both to each player.
