You're just proving my point. Supply is the issue. You add more supply more people get houses. If they had enough houses for everyone we wouldn't be having this conversation.

But that's not...

I can just see people standing around waiting for a winner to be announced only to find out that someone has relocated to the plot and that the time of the lottery at the plot that opened up is TBD. ...

As far as the new system compared to the old one, both have their issues. But for me it comes down to which one gives the most people a fair chance at a house.

Out of every 100 houses sold,...

I don't think he's saying buying a house for a friend is wrong. I think he's saying that the way it sounds like he was doing it is the reason why we have the timer. Buying a house from someone. ...

They can't do it now. They would just make the situation worse.

Having said that. It was a huge mistake to lower prices in the first place. You can't make something accessible to everyone...

I don't agree with this. You're not talking about streamlining a job, or removing an item evenly across every player who has it. You're talking about retroactively singling out specific players for...

Depends on the player. I spend a lot of time at home. I craft a lot. I like Triple Triad, so I have a board that allows matches in my house. I live in the mist, and I have benches in the yard...

Let's say they're 10K players on a server on average. There are what, about 3,500 houses on a server? That means that almost 2/3 of each server on average don't have houses. So, in theory, they...

Bandaids. What people want would require an entirely new or re-worked system, which is not going to.

A) Bring new players to the game

or

B) Retain current players

From a business...

I'm sure that SE engaged in some shortcuts and quick fixes to get the game up to par after the initial failure, but coding is not the main reason they won't overhaul the system.

Housing is just...

It's not that SE doesn't care, it's that they have bigger priorities. To make the Housing system what people are asking for, they would have to entirely overhaul it. But if you're SE, and you have...

You can buy houses with real-world currency in ESO. Which means that they have to make the system very good so that people will spend money. Then they take some of that money and put it back in...

SE would never hear the end of the crying about rewards being locked behind triple triad. Especially if they were something like mounts or glamours.

Are more or less people looking for houses going to have them after these wards are added? Obviously a lot of people who didn't have houses before will have them. How in the world is the situation...

SE is not going to retroactively go back and take houses, and they shouldn't. You can't go back and punish people for something that was not against any rule when they did it.

As for the housing...

It wouldn't be a privileged few, if SE were to do it, they would have to believe that there was enough demand to support what they're putting into it (ie...a lot of players). All people who would be...

And the thing is, I'm sure there are plenty of people living in smalls and mediums that would gladly pay to upgrade to a large house in premium wards, which would open up vacated houses for people...

One, that's not what pay to win is. Two, that's not even accurate what you just said. You don't keep your house solely by paying for sub. You keep it by playing. If you don't log into the game,...

I'd pay a fee for a house, especially if it means I can take a break and not have to worry about losing it as long as I'm paying. As long as it's optional I don't see the issue. I saw a couple of...

I'm assuming a lot of people would start with the base apartment and upgrade as they raised the gil. Depending on the cost, everyone may not be able to afford the largest size.

I could do with like a hundred more slots in my mansion. The basement is kind of open, but the top two floors are good, aside from tabletop items. It sucked at Christmas trying to decide what I...

Sadly, this would just allow people to bypass the system and buy houses from each other. All someone has to do is negotiate a price, once done, make someone a tenant and then just don't come back to...

I've always wanted less market boards.

When you come into the ward off the boat, there should be a central area. The regular housing vendors, and a couple of market boards. It would be a...

Yeah, I have miner and botanist levelled.

I think the mistake people make is that they don't do things together, or when the can really some benefit from them so it seems like more of a grind. ...

Amen to this. I made a quiet place in my yard just for crafting.
