SE being hypocritical.

I'm sorry but does anyone with a medium and large FC house feel a bit unfair about this 2.2 change?

-The maximum number of furnishings for a small house has been increased from 50 to 100.

And then we get this excuse from the Live Letter:

Q29: Will you be increasing the number of furnishings you can place inside and outside of houses?

A29: While it’s not difficult to raise the cap on furnishings, we expect this to increase stress on the server and this will affect the release of personal housing, so please give us a bit before we increase cap.


So we pay 20 to 50 million gil more, and only get 100 more slots...that seems right.

You pay more money but you don't have to live in a tent.

I don't see the problem.

They're adjusting the small house size to make it more pleasant (as its currently horrible to use your camera in) and adding a basement, so the adjustment is reasonable based on the new floor level being added.

Yeah and dat massive e-peen for your whole company to wave at the plebs.

At least be happy they're providing more room for small houses.

Now we have a basement room.

The small house adjustment was mainly added so small houses could have a basement so they could have the space to build an airship later on.
As for the 50 slots... isnt that much of a issue but main issue is large houses are actually too big for 200 slot limit. The game just needs larger furnishings that take up more actual space then slot space. Game doesn't really need anymore useless furnishings that dont actually do anything for actually having them in your house.

Small houses are getting their floor space doubled so it makes sense to double their furnishing capacity.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that any crafting workshops for things like building airships would be below the lowest floors for all houses and not take up any of the current usable space.

This. I was already 50/50 just on the first floor. When they said they were adding basements I was getting ready to just wall the basement off until they someday increased the limit. No point adding a basement if you can't furnish it.

There's still little incentive to actually go to the living areas.

Actually, the game needs more items of a variety of types. I may just be used to the staggering customizability of Rift's dimensions, but I really appreciate being able to personalize the housing space. Things are already so limited in XIV in terms of customization, it would be nice to have more doodads to place around to help set an atmosphere and just generally decorate.

Would really like an increase in the number of items we can have outside too. >_>;
