Plot Prices? WOW

So for a first-grade large plot of land its 312,500,000m MILLION GIL. I thought I was rich but man I can't even put a dent into that price. Anyone even considering paying half of that for housing?

I dont even want to think about it. Maybe in a few years haha. I'll be lucky if i can get a measly 20mil gil house let alone a large plot!

Arent price dropping everyday?
It is so nobody has the biggest house day one.
By small one and as price drop, buy bigger one

Like wanting to buy a castle when you have a student loan. One step at the time.

Yeah they do drop everyday but to a maximum of 50% off. Still pretty expensive.

Price cannot drop past 50% of the original price. So all the waiting in the world won't make the housing affordable.

Just a reminder that these housing prices are for FC housing, since some of the phrasing of the posts so far suggests they're expecting to have to pay that all by themselves. 300 million split between 30 people isn't as out of reach.

I'm sure personal housing when it comes out will be much more in reach of the average player to purchase on their own.

Everyone was in shock when it was announced, thats for sure..

Even being in the largest FC on server, everyone's heart sank a bit. :(

Hard work and dedication and working together as a team will definitely be key to getting a plot for housing.

You expecting 30 people to put in 10 mill each into something that can go down at anytime....yeah, good luck with that. Guilds crash and burn due to drama all the time.I have personally never had more then 4 mil at one time, and putting that ALL into an FC....lol and love my fc, but nope.

I expect the prices to be patched.

I never said that. I was pointing out that people don't have to put up 300 million themselves for their personal house, which is what several people in this and other threads appear to believe.

I'll also point out that the 300 million price is for the highest tier land with the largest plot. There are several options far less in price for those who do not have or do not want to spend that much gil including waiting 3 months. 10 million split 30 ways is only 333,333k per person, for example.

I thought I would of solo buy for my guild, but /shrug, just means we gotta work hard towards it.

On that note, I am selling myself for 600 million gil...:(

Selling yourself? Hmmmm what does this price include?! :)

I expect this will blow up in SE's face a bit as far as the prices, but I also don't under-estimate the nownownownownownow types. ^^;

It's a nice idea @ trying to put a substantial gil-sink in, but probably won't be as effective as they expected.. at least I'm not on Ridill anymore (625 mil for the largest ones o.o)

You'd think that escaping into the world of RPG's where you can do supernatural things, die multiple times and get raised to fight again you'd at least be able to escape the class warfare we live in in real life. Sorry, I spend too much time keeping a real roof over my head to spend time trying to raise enough imaginary money to put and imaginary roof over my imaginary head. I played FFXI for 5 years, if this sort of thing, along with the nerfs, is the future of FFXIV, I don't think I'll make it a year. We pay for this game, give US what WE want.

The price is a little steep, we're a small FC and we haven't raised any where near that amount. It pretty much screws us over.
The entire game is a gil sink, the only Companies with enough gil is probably the Titan sellers.

I agree that this will probably bite them in the ass later.

It's ok Perfection will have the big plot Day one i bet half of them probably came over with well over 300m in 1.0 cash lol considering they had an off shell and in order to get in you had to have over 100m lol

The problem with that is that they plan future content around FC Housing, such as chocobo raising, growing plants, building airships, etc.
Also I remember reading (Will try to find for citation) Yoshi-P saying in an interview at one time that he was thinking of making personal housing something that you just attach to your FC House, an instanced room only for you. If that is how it works, all these people defending "It's FC housing, wait till personal!" will... well lets be honest, some people will just defend every decision the dev team makes no matter how bad it is
