    It's almost like the housing and acquisition system in this game is dogshit.

    Houses were never really given a chance to just sit so that one could leisurely stroll through and buy them. Glad you had that experience on your server though.
    I mean, Cerberus isn't a quiet server, but that is essentially exactly how it happened for me.

    Strolling through Goblet one day and a plot right by the pool was just there, empty, no campers, nothing. Even the timer had run out. That was the best plot, IMHO, but it was by no means the only one.

    Not that any of this is an excuse though, the housing situation is still bad, you shouldn't have to wait a couple years for a really long content drought in order to buy a videogame house. That's literally longer than it takes to get a real actual house in the real world, in a lot of places anyway.

    Not surprising at all, lol
    Took me well over 3 years to even get a house on Levi and is a small only

    Yeah a lot of the FC's I'm aware of that were wanting to upgrade to a Medium or Large have been reporting that a lot of them were snatched up by people moving their personals. It kinda defeats the purpose of letting FC's have the first crack when anyone with a personal can just up and move at the same time.

    All medium and large plots on Cactuar were gone before I could even log in. Ah well.

    Godsdamnit, I thought the housing would be at least a little bit delayed, my internet is slow so it takes hours update. Looks I won't be getting that house in the lavender beds I wanted T^T
    I still have 118mins to wait to get in, due to the slow download speed :/

    Ah well, at least I still have a medium in the mist. I'll just have to make do for now, and keep an eye out for if the house opens up in the future.

    I'm so glad you got a house I have had one for a long time, since before the purchase timers were implemented, and it's hard watching friends remain perpetually unlucky. I will always advocate for a better housing system because what we currently have, even though I have greatly benefited from it, is only good for the few.

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means
