Moghouse Beautification: The storage space trade off

[bungiefanNA]

Thank you for the reply. If it takes just as much resources to give us 80 more slots for any sort of items, instead of a separate inventory just for furniture, I think this would be just fine to just do that instead.

After all, I doubt a lot of people have more than 80 furniture items, so most people would get what this thread asks for, and extra spare inventory in addition to that.

Which would then turn furnishings into comsumables, since with the attachments you can't sell them once they are put there, as there is no way to remove them. Turning an item from a tradable item to a comsumable would mess with the economy in some way, which they've quted recently as a reason for not changing other things, like logs and ores to stackable items. It doesn't matter that the economy is flush with so much gil from cruor conversion and NPC sales of items from gardening and VW drops.

What really be cool if they added more wall space. Flag poles would be nice, sticks where you can hang your nation flags on then put them anywhere in the room. That free up wall space.

yes please =)

Or just a larger mog house! Through a quest or something. Anything that doesn't involve camping the AH or bazaars to buy rare, expensive items.

The trouble is, our mog "house" is nothing more than a small single room! It can't even be classified as a bachelor flat because it has no WC!

What we really need is mog HOUSES that are more than 1 room. Take your pick of Ranch, bungalow, chateau, ... (oh, and also have the furniture not take up any other storage space). You could quest larger accommodations. Each upgrade would provide more rooms, space for furniture AND more storage space for other items. Pantry for food. Closets for clothes. You get the idea.

I'd even be OK if the real estate for the above was limited to Andoulin as long as connections and communications to other areas was easy. Maybe something like warping from house to house while inside the house! Exit in the zone of your preference.

It's all about content. Questing accommodations. Collecting furniture. Keep those subscriptions flowing!

Sorry Kingfury, but I have to completely disagree...

You would have had him if you drew a picture to bck it up. lol

This is what I'd want...

Personal Airships (Mog House addition)
We have outgrown our Mog Houses. They may be nice quiet places to go while in town, but why can't we have a more dynamic base of operations (while keeping our Mog Houses)? Airships are the perfect platform to use for this purpose, flying buildings that aren't limited by location.

* They should have more than one room that we can decorate and store things in, possibly allowing us to set up several rooms with different mog enhancements which we can choose from as our activities change. (And a "Fat Chocobo" room where we store stuff in the big bird & moogles aboard the airship can send the stuff to us at any time from any place

* They would also allow us to quickly go where we need to go without waiting on pre-set airship schedules. To avoid the problem of docking animations: place a teleport rune on the airship and at locations where we can disembark (likely near savepoint crystals and in our Mog Houses in each nation). Moogles can run our airships and manage our landing sites. (Adventuresome moogles may paradive down to create new landing site locations for us! We may have to reach locations by "normal" means before we can simply warp down in the future.)

New Airship Zones
Basically, you'd be on the deck of your ship, "In flight", like other automated flights, but without a time limit, so, it's until you choose to disembark.

These zones would be for airship fights, possibly with Wyrms and other enemies flying around that you could fight on the deck of the Airship, but more importantly, they'd be ways to access regions of some areas that are inaccessible from the ground, similar to the first mission in FFX-2. Clearly, there wouldn't be a sky for every single zone in the game, more like:
* The Skies of Mindartia
* The Skies of Quon
* The Skies of (one for each of the outer continents - maybe one zone entrance is in the highest mountains of an area surrounded by the emptiness below, working its way up.)
* The skies above the Shu'Meyo sea may be too dangerous (need special protection or flight devices) for our airships, requiring the use of Cid's airship in The Sealion's Den in the Safehold. That way, Tu'Lia and Al'Taieu stay off-limits - though, you may be able to teleport to Tu'Lia through the green teleport pads or maybe a new moogle location near the region ownership flag.

New Airship Battlegrounds
* Fighting monsters on the deck while in flight will be possible (HNMs that take a group - remember we can invite other people into our moghouses now - same function here) and we can keep our ships in flight for as long as the battle lasts, instead of being tied to scheduled departure and landing times (we don't actually have to have a destination).

We could equip our airships with weaponry (cannons, energy nets) to help us in these battles (furniture), and gather support NPCs (moogles, adventuring fellow, reflector monster) like Tenzen did (Chebuki triplets). This personal airship may also be the only way to reach certain destinations that allow access to HNMs.

And of course, I'd want all the furniture stuff to be in its own separate inventory type thing that doesn't take space from storage that people would want to use for "more important" things... this storage set aside just for this purpose would ENCOURAGE mog house experimentation, rather than discourage it, by making it an expensive hobby for people who have extra inventory room.

So yeah... that's what I want I can go on... and on... and on... if you want more ideas

This is for SE and relates to a game change. I'd like to be able to remove flowerpots from the layout without losing the dried flowers (plants) in them. This would make them another furniture item and it would be nice to be able to sell them on the Auction House or trade them to friends for their Mog Houses. As it is, when you dry a plant for a decoration it is not removed from Gardening and remains part of the Moogle's Gardening task. You can move it around your Mog House as a decoration but not replace the pot to grow something else. Appreciate some thought and help on this.

I was originally going to care how my Mog House looked, but then:

Wrong furniture breaks Moghancements
Gil cost of furniture

Mogenhancement hosing and the need for storage space are two big hosers for making a nice-looking Mog House happen for the average player. Having a way to expand the Mog House itself to a two-room deal- and the second being "decorative only" would be nice.
