This is an interesting point.... So many people buy houses and keep them, but you have to wonder how many are using them? Since I've bought my Shirogane house, I have seen only one FC hanging around and one other player. I walk around the ward a lot. I look at people's houses. In my area, many houses have no lawn decoration and some haven't even built the house yet (perhaps resellers idk).When I was in Lavender Beds, I saw more people than I have here and that's shocking to me since it literally just came out. Although I guess people could be busy doing other content..........Quote:

I wondered why he didn't just use an apartment.... But I guess you can have more vendors this way.

They should really increase more large at least 2-3 more per division and 3-5 more for medium considering how many people now have more than 50m.

10-13-2017, 06:43 AMVahlnirI have yet to see anyone come up with a good, logical point with this suggestion other than "my FC can't have it so you shouldn't either". I agree though, people should be allowed to have options, not be punished for simply wanting a bigger house for personal use.Quote:

10-13-2017, 06:48 AMVahlnirYou know, I was hoping they would do this at some point...surprised it hasn't been done by now. This would help considerably, but would definitely require redesigning the wards a bit. I think it'd be an excellent idea...along with adding more wards and/or instanced housing (interiors and exteriors).Quote:

I realized not everyone has had the chance, or perhaps they are completely broke from just buying the plot. I don't know. Personally, I've been crafting and preparing tons of decoration for myself + to sell for profit in the last few months.Quote:

it's kind of a double-edged sword, you would want furniture that can boost crafting so someone would actually want to go into their house and go to their crafting station to do crafts. you would want extra storage in a house (that's for not just furnishings) so that people don't just use the Retainer Bells in Rhalgar's Reach / Kugane. the problem is when you make houses actually useful this would make it even worse that there are so many players who don't have them.
and owning a house is incentive to do events/quests that reward furnishings. what's the point of having a Christmas Tree if you don't have a yard to put it in. -
10-13-2017, 06:52 AMCyllaOh i know it, because i'd be one of them people if SE pulled that. If anything maybe they should decease the amount of small houses and give more M & L if they are in more demand then a S house. Though I suppose with the current system, they wouldn't be able to decease the S houses and add more M & L.Quote:
