How excited are you for 2.1 after the Housing prices reveal?

Until a few hours ago i was really looking forward to this patch, 60% of the reason was the housing about 30% PVP and the rest was basically CT and King moogle.

Now i'm not sure if I should renew subscription or just wait for 2.2 and see what they add there.

I think I'll just unsub and wait for another game, this and the crystal tower system are plain retarded.

2.1 news is amazing.

Triple buff on DRG, a Holy Lance, new dungeons ....

Aaaaagggghhhhhh

going to unsub

i'm homeless :( help me yoshi wan kenobi you're my only hope :(

not interested at all.

between all the misleading se is doing and the be nerfing ive had my fill.

It's safe to say that between the CT lockout and unobtainable housing all excitement is now gone. Pretty sure half the population is going to unsub over the next 3 months just to save money between now and 2.2. Not sure how many will actually come back as ESO will be launching in April and by then they'll all be full of "who cares about that fail game" without ever looking at any patch notes for 2.2.

You're all hilarious.

1 drop from CT while potentially getting 6 (turn 1,2,4 on farm) from Coil and being higher ilvl. The ridiculous price of Housing for Large Plots (which will be needed for Chocobo Barns and Airship Hangers in the future I assume ). Oh and

Good luck healers.

i guess i'll quit playing until the personal housing

Aesthetician is all I need.

It was the only thing I was looking forward to as someone who loved decking out my mog house in XI. Now they expect people to pay 8 million gil for a house the size of one persons mog house in XI.......seriously this is a joke. Good to see they are already deleting threads complaining about it though, apparently the only thing SE can do swiftly is moderate forums.

I had a feeling SE was going to be doing their typical misinformation crap but I'm only being charged $7.99 a month (legacy/180 day) so... I'll probably keep subbing not like I really want to go back to WoW. All I do there is stare at my ugly toon standing in front of a mailbox. At least in 14 I can stand around and stare at my rather adorable lalafell instead.

Housing was going to be my dream for this patch, I'm litteraly going to need to hawk the markets for oportunities to make mad gil.

Saved up a million gil and have been gimping my fighting classes to save gil instead of power up my character, I see saving the cash was a wasted effort as my 2 man free company are going to have a hard time affording even the smallest housing plot in the poorest part of town.

So on Hyperion the smallest, crappiest plot of land is 20 million gil. I'm in a very small free company with 7 or 8 other real life friends. We will never be able to pay that. Ever. Even after 3 months when the price is cut down to 10 million gil, we still won't be able to afford this. I don't understand why they are adding a housing system and then gating it such that only the very rich or very large free companies will be able to do anything with it. It's a horrible design decision and shows that Square Enix still doesn't understand how to properly run and design an MMO. Systems like housing only work if they are easily accessible to the entire player population. Congrats SE on yet another awful design decision. Well done.

I'm still excited, just baffled at all the class and job adjustments to the disciples of magic, that, from what I had gathered in previous discussions were going to stay the same. If you take all of the changes made to Thaumaturges, Conjurers and Arcanists and to their respective jobs, it's extremely harsh. But anyways, there are enough threads about that already. I'm still looking forward to the content, generally speaking.

Let it burn.

I'm mostly disapointed in the direction Free Companies seem to be going. When I heard the cap on membership was 512, I thought maybe they'd do some really epic stuff. Instead they've pretty much set the game up for 4 man > add another 4 man to make a 8 man. The highest content is 24 man. There's literally no reason to have more than 30 or so people in a free company and it sounds like you can get by with 8 active members because there's no way to preform an alliance for CT.

500+ people chipping in 1.5mil gil would be doable but I don't know that there are that many huge FC's D: (not to mention even in the largest shown housing I can't imagine 500 people fitting into one of those houses without crashing it)

Not excited at all, but will remain subbed to play with my friends.

Same as before.

Besides, Hildebrand was all I required.

I've been lurking again, thinking about coming back to check out the new class changes and quests, but I'll probably wait for few more patches to comes through.

okay.. I can get pass the nerfing of JOBs. I can get pass the hair stylist. I can even get pass the one item per week thing for crystal tower. I get can pass a lot of the stuff... but I am seriously upset about the Housing prices. I know some people don't care about the housing but housing is one of the BIGGEST things that interested me about 2.0 that was different than 1.0 and wasn't happy about housing not coming out at launch like it was suppose to but was willing to wait. now we have FC Housing coming out and I was looking forward to it with a passion. sad to say that you couldn't just disappoint with the JOBs, crystal tower, and various other things but had to extend the disappointment to the housing too. seriously SE, who has so much money other than the RMT's to even afford those prices? why are you rewarding the RMTs instead of kicking them like you said you were? i am seriously disappointed in you Yoshi-p and SE!!!

If all you QQers want to leave thats ok with me,
PvP is going to ROCK, and housing costs just means we have something to work towards.
Stop asking for things to be handed to you!
Having something to strive for making is well worth it!!!

I don't care about housing and do not understand why other people care about it so I remain unchanged.

More to 2.1 then Housing -.-. Some people think 1 not so good thing about the patch means everything else in the patch doesn't exist.

I was looking forward to it, but the nerfs to summoner have me dreading it.
Only a few more days of being a respectable class to go, yaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

It's good. They shouldn't be cheap. People are so difficult to please.

Pretty unenthused, to be honest. Housing was what we were looking forward to. We were expecting the smaller places to be in the 3-6 million range.

Not 20 million. That's absolutely absurd.

Apparently Trion is one of the only companies that actually knows how to treat their customers properly. Squee sure as hell doesn't have a clue. The smallest houses should be FREE, and the money/time/investment should be in building them up, not acquiring them in the first place.

For some reason, I feel, the pricing they added 1 extra zero to some of those prices ( typo). There's a fine line between priced right ( but very expensive) and highway robbery.

( Unless of course in 2.1 there is various way of getting gil. Then perhaps it could be a decent price, but I have to see how much gil I get per day.

Just as excited as I was before. No changes :)

Could care less about about all the whining on the forums complaining about this, that or any other thing. I'll still be playing regardless ;)

Well after this it kinda killed me, I like playing a game I can play continously not once a week so now I think it's actually gonna die for me, that and I got a ban because I said management was poor and someone needs to be fired lol don't worry the BBB looks down on trying to cover up angry customers

To me, this is just a boring ol' patch right now, adding in some dungeons to keep me doing the same ol' thing: Fighting. There is nothing in this game but fighting at the moment, and people criticised FFXIII for having nothing to do but fight. They won't encourage a healthy crafting based economy because they are afraid of RMT, they won't allow us decent FC housing unless we're spending all our game time earning gil. What am I supposed to do besides fighting? I understand it is a major part of the game, but with that in mind... I could fight with my friends in AK/WP before. Now I can fight with my friends in [whatever dungeon becomes the go-to dungeon after patch 2.1]. Boy, it would be neat to have housing. I'll just sit here wistfully thinking about houses for a while. Maybe super-cheap housing could be set up in some random slum for us awful people who aren't good enough to make x amount of gil.

I'd say my excitement level is at around 15% because of WAR changes and the ability to join groups that are doing story runs or are new to fights, because at least these kind of things require me helping someone do something that progresses them in the game to a new dungeon. :) It was around 200% before the housing price bombshell, though. xD

Very, I'm not in a FC and was always waiting for personal housing anyway lol. Though i'm worrried about how many years I may have to save for that :P

mmm how bout regen? There are no monsters in PvP beside the opposing team to worry about enmity.

How about using Sacred Prism or using Equanimity or Purify. Even Attunement looks like it could be useful in conjunction with Sacred Prism and Equanimity. Even if the aren't the best CD, you will still get stuff off (well maybe once or twice ;P)

Super excited. Lots of new main scenario quests, new dungeons, new fights, new soloable content, improved system stability and increased server polling rate, awesome improvements to the cross hotbar UI.

Not all that interested in PvP, but it looks like it may be fun for people who enjoy that kinda thing.

The high prices of the FC housing are good, too. It'd be ridiculous if every single podunk FC has a gigantic house on Tuesday afternoon.

I'm looking forward to it.. But then again I'm not going to cry cause I can't afford a fc house and nerfs come and go. That's just the way of things. Looking forward to the new dungeons and quests.

Plenty to do, enjoying the game, running an FC with 3 coil groups.. Hanging with people I enjoy gaming with. Not going anywhere anytime soon.

I'd like to hear your gameplan that would get a FC a large plot for 625 million. Good ahead, if you are saying we are so difficult to please and the housing shouldn't be so cheap, well let me hear your gameplan for someone to earn 625 million to buy a large house. Since we are so difficult to please and cheap, I'd love to hear your solution. Go ahead, still waiting...

Some people are push-overs and don't mind being lied to and mislead, but many of us are not pushovers and we have the right to bitch and moan since we are paying to play this game and we have been mislead about the housing this entire time. So you can enjoy being treated like that, but those of us with selfworth aren't going to sit there and smile as we are forced to bend over and take it.

Bummed (and slightly annoyed) about Housing. Mostly because they leave it till near release to mention 'the bad news' associated with all the good things they have been preaching about housing for the last few months. It's the kind of marketing technique that leaves a bad taste in peoples mouths, formally known as 'the fine print'.

As part of the RP population the idea of a 'Home base' was a fun prospect to look forward to. My FC is determined to save for one still, but I don't know how many players will be left in 3 (or 6) months.

The rest of the patch though I am looking forward to.
