Grandfathering ONLY applies to private purchases prior to the rule changes in 4.2. Free Companies are not grandfathered. The rules changes stopped people from buying more than one private house per server and is working as intended.Quote:

And why would they open so many more wards to FC and privates...? since sadly a lot of people abuse FC's as a personal for the workshop, etc. -

No wonder Yoshi reacts like he did after somebody asked him about Moon/Sharlayan Housing. People cant be pleased anyway.Quote:

It’s not that “people can’t be pleased.” It’s that supply does not meet the demand. As long as that continues there’s always going to be complaints, and justifiably so.

02-22-2023, 02:27 AMYodadaIts not only the demand. What do you think is gonna happen when Bolmungs demand on private houses would be met someday? Buhuuuu didnt get a Large, buhuuu didnt get my Beachfront, buhuuuuu didnt get a Plot in Shirogane and so one. The overcrowded servers wont be pleased until Square is giving them all instanced LB41s or M35s or whatever their heart desires.Quote:

And honestly, that’s why I support instanced. Because the current system isn’t even letting everyone participate (and by that I mean actually owning a house, not just throwing bids at a lotto every 9 days), let alone giving people what they want. An instanced system can do that. A lot of people can’t get a house at all right now. And for others, it’s a reasonable expectation to be able to upgrade when they’ve earned the gil to do so. But just throwing more wards at the problem isn’t going to solve that problem either. Keep the wards for those that can luck into them. Make instanced for everyone else.

But seeing more and more of this lottery silliness... isn't making my toughts go to instanced housing being a thing... -
02-22-2023, 09:19 AMKaiprobertsInstanced housing is great for those who want it. They would still need to support the people who don't want instanced housing. Every other game with housing has instanced housing and there's a reason we are not playing them.Quote:

I’ve said elsewhere what I’m looking for out of instanced housing is pretty much the same exact thing as the ward housing, only made into private plot instances. And I really hope someone at SE is working on it in a quiet secret corner somewhere… lol
