[QUOTE="Admin, post: 70208, member: 1"] [IMG]https://assets-prd.ignimgs.com/2025/12/04/wowscrnshot-120425-150753-1764883655299.jpg[/IMG] Blizzard has partnered with real estate website Zillow to create Zillow for Warcraft, a goofy Zillow-like website intended to promote the game's new player housing feature with humor, information, and a free in-game item. The website, accessible at [URL='http://feeds.feedburner.com/ign/zillowforwarcraft.com']zillowforwarcraft.com[/URL] or [URL='http://feeds.feedburner.com/ign/zillow.com/warcraft']zillow.com/warcraft[/URL], is, to be clear, a goof. At the moment, it doesn't seem to be showing off actual houses built by real players. It instead has a curated selection of both Horde and Alliance homes that seem to be intended more to offer inspiration to players working on their own homes than anything. Besides, it's not like you can actually buy someone else's fully built and decorated house in the game, anyway. The website is cute, though. It's got a handful of different housing options on different plots in both the Horde and Alliance neighborhoods to skim through, with humorous descriptions of decor decisions and, frankly, some pretty good ideas that I hadn't really thought of for my own rustic shack. You're guided through the website by Bek'tar Donhammar and Hazyl Fizzlehorn, two fictional Azerothian real estate agents who each have their own profiles with "reviews" from satisfied customers, all rife with in-jokes. The main reason you might care to visit the website, though, is to get the free item. If you link your battle.net account, you can get a free "Naturally Elegant Doormat" which will show up in the in-game mail after the fact and become available for use in decorating your house.
