What need is a "bank"... that will do the trick

But you can use a house for item storage as well as other things, have you not played FF XI? You could grow plants and even furniture wasn't just furniture, they had special effects. It was more than just a house.

True, it's not necessary. SE is too busy at the moment implementing auto attack.

I hope they don't strain themselves.

Jumping isn't necessary either. =p


Edit:
Or content. Or anything anyone says they want. It's really not necessary. It doesn't mean people aren't free to want it. And it doesn't mean SE isn't free to implement it when they are ready or if they feel it could be something that adds to the game.

True. This is so true.

People ask for unnecessary things too much. SE can't just implement stuff into a game whenever they feel like. They need to have a meaningful reason for it, otherwise we would have a game full of fluff content and no true content. We need true content like auto attack, for instance. Or instances, for instance.

Also, SE is a busy company. They can't just implement anything you want them to.

They have and are developing their vision of this game. They can take our thoughts into consideration, or choose to just ignore it. =p In the end, SE will decide what they think is best for this game, come the good or bad results. But, things are at least in motion, which is good to see.

Maybe player housing will come one day. ^-^;

You are the one asking SE to demolish the wards and bring all the retainers out into the main zone of the cities. That is definitely not necessary. If anything, that would cause more problems like the cities crashing and terrible lag, etc.

video games are not necessary

......why are you here?

im for it but i think need add other thing 1st

Mog house was cool and all, but EQ2 did housing better, as far as size, variety, and locations. Needs to be something to top that.

Wh... WHAT?! Oh my god, so sad...
Anyway, Yoshi has already announced Player House for 2.0. Be happy!

I couldnt be more excited for player housing ^^, in FFXI my house was a place to regroup and enjoy my decor not to mention it was my home for 7 yrs of ffxi and I miss it terribly. with the incredible graphics of ffxiv i forsee spending a ton of time in my home decorating and crafting when they become available ^^. I wonder how many of the people who say "they could care less if we get them" or "they arnt needed", played ffxi. It might be easier for those of us who spent years enjoying our houses in ffxi to understand why they will be such a wonderful asset when they become available. ^^

I'm not sure but wasn't room renting planned for patch 1.21 and housing for 2.0?

2.0

Yes, we are only getting "Creation of Private Rooms (Inns, etc.)" whatever that really means, in 1.21 (unless they moved it).

This. Cant believe this thread went 6 pages before this was said haha. Private rooms are coming in 1.21. We dont know exactly what they will have and the restrictions yet, cause im sure their will be a gimmick in there somewhere, but they are coming before the end of February(hopefully).

we will get private rooms when we get a damn mail box....2.0

True, but I am really not sure if we will be able to see them with 1.21 since I didn't read about it after the "Future of FFXIV" docs appeared and it wasn't on the planned release list of 1.21. Same about chocobo gear :S
Give me some hype for 1.21, devs :)

Mmh...

Well, my wild guess is that the private room system is there for people not in a Free Company, and thus not able to have a house of their own on a Company Estate.

Where Company Estate houses will (supposedly) enable furnishing and such (the old Mog-House functions), they'll also supposedly allow for the structure itself to be modified and improved and changed, gardening, chocobo rearing in said garden, and possibly a basement for larger craft projects.

So I imagine that.. in their final, 2.0 form at the very least, Private Rooms will not be limited in what they can do, but simply lack the exteranl customisation/gardening/basement elements.

I hope it at least had a tiny bit of depth of Xi's feng shui buffs furniture and gardenung depth and gameplay. If it's just a room with no connection to field actions or stats then I don't see the point.

I'm sure everybody is expecting the full featured version but given the past year we can only wait and see what features make it through the streamlining process.

Btw I like XI's furniture but it would be nice if making it was tied to monster kills and crafting like in mh3tri's multiplayer mode cribs.

Having a free company castle or base or whatever would be cool. Kinda like how it was done in L2.

/ignore the thread

/think
where should I live... forest or beach?
tough choices... :O

where you guys will pick?

That's what I meant. But in the german version of this doc is written "eventually Creation of Private Rooms" and there were some planned content lists for 1.21 after this doc from October(?) without rooming or chocobo gear on it :/

They should add them, and when they do they should be bigger, better, more involved than in XI. But right nowas much as I'd like to see them I'd like to see them not run out of money. You already see the word "cost" in letter to producer 10 what...a dozen times?

Money's tight. The servers are not at their best. Some sacrifices have to be made in the short term.

I have read somewhere recently that they will be called "Estates" which would lead me to believe they will be bigger than homes in XI. I hope so. I miss growing things in my house and making furniture. Furniture alone would be an awsome addition for crafters.

This electronic video-based computer game functions at an acceptable level, further modifications will not be necessary.

Beep.

Lighten up, geez. Maybe player housing could be...fun? :O

what do you mean "Still no mention" in the last letter from the Developer they said they're ironing out the final Details for housing.

And in one of the earlier letters they were saying how there might be bonuses related to personal space and how they might go the same route as chocobos and allow you both a personal housing, and an ability to rent a room in one of the city inns.

They have mentioned some teasers for player housing in 2.0 and I am very excited by that.

I also want to hear more about 2.0 as well as what they listed for 1.21, Creation of Private Rooms (Inns, etc.). Yeah, yeah, its possible they aren't going to implement it but I've not seen a dev post saying they aren't either.

More details in 1.21 please and thank you. :D

Hope you guys realize you're replying to a 7 month old thread.

5. Several important content filling topics listed on the 2.0 PDFs are coming "after 2.0." How long "after 2.0" are we talking for many of these features?

This depends on the content and system, but basically all of the content and system functions we revealed recently are our highest priority items, so we plan on implementing them in rapid succession within 2 months of the release of 2.0. In the early stages of 2.0, raid expansions, housing and PvP will be implemented.

I'm aware of nothing monsieur Seravi.

I'd be more than willing to comment on a new thread if you would be so kind as to post a riveting discussion full of mystery and controversial ideas, (please no cape/cashshop/game and story killing)
