Same! I serious do not understand why they have made housing this difficult to get, especially if you are wanting to upgrade to a medium. I was the only bidder for days and when I logged out last night I was still the only one. Someone swoops in last minute and I lose again. I just turned the game off because my hopes we high with the new wards, but nope. Still lost.

I won a house as a joke on my alt.

:)

Better luck next time for 4 years here.

Dude just transfer to Dynamis or make a "house alt" on it. With exception of Seraph, the wards are practically empty. If you're getting legitimate anxiety over having a house... idk man, I would either exit that stuff entirely, or adjust your goals to be more attainable. Dynamis is pretty much free real estate, you just have to show up.

Telling people to move to Dynamis isn't a solution. Its like telling someone to move to the corn fields of Ohio or something because it has housing. Nobody wants to give up their FC, friends, etc to move datacenters even with DC travel being a thing now because its incredibly inconvenient.

Welp, although I said I was going to go big and bid on a LB-41, I chickened out in the end and went for a LB small but someone else came to bid as well and won the coinflip. I'm happy for them though as the winner is from a RP FC and only entered to be in the same ward as their FC house.

Still I guess it's back to the Limsa sewers for me since that's my one decent chance on Balmung :(

Still a good chunk of smalls to choose from on Gilga at least for the next cycle.

Sure would be nice, but I'm not holding my breath for the future.

Going to expect to enter in whatever scraps are left on my server and keep losing weekly until we're back to having no plots again for purchase.

Bit over it by now.

I have an FC room and an apartment, but I can't really decorate them the way I'd like to due to hitting the item limits, and I'd love to use some stuff like the wisteria trees but... those are outdoor items only and neither FC rooms nor apartments have a yard, unlike XI's Moghouse had.

I'll have to catch up to access Island Sanctuary stuff, but even then that still doesn't cover that I would like to decorate a nice garden.

Was nice at least to see everyone in the Goblet on my server wishing each other luck, but sucked in being the only one there and online at the time to have lost in that entire ward to a coinflip, whilst others had no one else bid on their's at the last minute, unlike the plot I was going for. :/

It *is* a solution. It's just not a solution you like. There is nothing stopping you from going back and visiting your friends when you are not at your house, DC travel is a thing. Or just make an alt on Dynamis, it's quite easy to raise the 3 million to afford a house when it hands you 1 million for free, or you can just travel to your home DC and ask your friends to load it up. It does take a little bit of effort to get to 2nd Lieutenant, but it's not an especially onerous task.

The solution to the problem exists. If people don't want to go to the trouble of it, then clearly they do not want a house as badly as they claim to.

i would hate to move to dynamis only to not secure housing i wanted
