personally, i think having houses and jobs would make it feel like a fantasy version of \"The Sims\" but, jobs could be nice, if like ur job didnt have hours, like u could be a merchant, or even like a guild leader as a job(it takes work!), as for houses, think of all the area u would need for them, although, it is not a bad idea at all, and every good game needs spells effects! instead of at the bottom of hte screeen saying, u hit enemy b for 2 points of damage with ur evoke fire. it would be nice to see good combat motions instead of a corny _\\|/_(thats a sequence of a sword moving forward, i am not flipping u off
