Current Housing issues - The Lack of Actual Housing

I mean is that the only way to get one now?

Pretty much and only for FC plots since you can't trade personal plots. They are very expensive, typically selling for 600 million gil for a Goblet large to 2.5 billion gil for a plot 35 Mist.

lol they were taking potshots at pretty much everything we complain about here. I don’t play WoW and usually I’m not in favor of the “XIV needs to be more like WoW” arguments on the various forums. But this paragraph? All for it! Obviously they’re seeing what isn’t working over here to try and make their system better. Hoping XIV rises to the competition… imo XIV is a better game with a better world, and housing is great but there’s so much more they could be doing better to update things.

WoW is a way older game than XIV but you see they are reinvesting the money they get from subs atm and that means they are not giving moist azz excuses; like the director of XIV

"We can't because it's old code wah wah"

Wow is a 30 year old game you have -2 legs to stand on.

There are flash games released 20+ years ago that have had better housing systems than XIV.
Fucking Club Penguin absolutely destroys XIV when it comes to housing

Ayup... either FFXIV gets their fingers out of their mouths.. or an exodus might happen again... back to WoW. .-.

NOT ME mind you, but im talking about others.

FFXIV is a better game, better world, better classes, better story all together... but this housing situation will HAUNT FFXIV unless they do something SOON

I don't think that WoW housing is going to impact FFXIV player population all that much for anything to haunt SE. The art aesthetic is so very different in WoW that players wouldn't be able to create the housing designs popular here. Getting a house won't mean much if players don't like how they end up looking and there's already negative feedback about the concept art, especially from Horde players. They're tired of always getting sticks, hides and mud associated with a race that only about 10% of them play.

I also wouldn't count on what is described in the WoW article being what they deliver. WoW has a very long history of overpromising things (like all the Garrison options that were supposed to be available but never materialized).

The article is also vague on some key points, like if every character will be able to have a house or if it's going to be limited to one Horde and one Alliance house per warband (a warband is all the characters on the same account).

I genuinely don't think that WoW housing is going to have much impact on FFXIV housing or FFXIV popularity in general. Depending on how the WoW system ends up working, at most it becomes another "but that game was able to do it" argument for players wanting improvements to FFXIV housing.
