Individual Player Housing

They said several times 6 months after fc housing in several magazines.

Having said that I'd be fine with yet another delay if it meant that personal housing would be more fleshed out than the bare bones fc system.
I've taken walks in many of the housing areas and nobody is using their houses. No one walks in the zones and the buildings look cold and sterile inside.

Maybe the system just needs to be tied to core gameplay systems more tightly and the placement of furniture needs to be more flexible.
Anyway right now the housing is kind of just vanity fluff.

What if they only release a small number of single player houses at a time and they are auctioned off? They could "set the price" at 50gil, but I bet players would pay millions.

If SE makes it 1 million, I will buy every single freaking house on my server and sell them at whatever freaking price I want; I bet there WILL be people who will cave in to whatever freaking price I put. Heck, even 10 mil is too cheap (unless SE screws me over and add more houses, which they just might do). Most all of the FC houses are already bought on my server, which is absolutely ridiculous, it hasn't even been half a year yet. Still, SE technically didn't succumb to the whining for handouts of the FC houses so they probably won't with this, but we'll see.

Sorry to hear that. I haven't visited all of the housing wards, but the first ward of Lavender Beds and Mist is almost fully bought on Odin. And there's always some crafters at market boards and summoning bells. The houses that I've been able to visit have been fully furnished as well. Guess it's different on every server.

I would imagine the houses would be one per player. There's no real reason to allow few players to hoard all the houses, is there?

As often as they mentioned that personal housing will cause a lot of stress on their servers (funny how f2p games can provide it without server problems), I assume that whenever we will get the chance to get our own houses, it will be a real money option through the Mog station.

Wait, so the patch included updates about gardening in individual homes, but we aren't getting player housing in the patch? I'm a little lost, now.

Lost? How?

You know they can't handle housing instances, what with their hamster in a wheel servers.

So dose no one remember 11....custom areas that you could expand and set anything anywhere that gave you stats boosts that everyone had from the start of the game that other people could visit...that both ff11 and every online phantasy star game has
