Housing QQ

Who care about the FC housing seriously? It doesnt give anything else than swagger...
The price are actually OK, what did you expect ? to be able to buy the largest house at the patch release?

People should QQ about the coil drop still being worse than the ilvl90 mytho gear.

inb4 PvP balance QQ.

Okay then.

I care about housing and I think you should stop telling people what they can and can't care about.

I see multiple housing threads and one easily over 300 posts. I've seen threads on housing way before patch info. People must really care about their "swagger" it seems.

More people care about having a FC house than Raid. PEople thought that it would be more accessable than the coil not significantly less

Obvious troll, but I'm going to feed it anyway.

Some people care about more than endgame, and like to have things to do for fun. Housing has a lot of potential for people to play around with designing a house and making it just perfect for themselves. It would have been a great thing for entertainment without all the drama.

As for what I, and most people I would wager, expected: We expected that, after having saved up since launch because we knew this was coming, we would at least be able to afford a small or medium plot of land with a small house. Come today and we find out that we only have about 10-15% of what we need for the smallest, lowest quality plot of land on our server, and can forget about ever having a large plot of land and house because we only have about 20 active members and that would require each person to donate 6.25-16 million.

Adding on to what Djeserit said, as an FC leader myself, I simply cannot fathom asking my members to donate 10mil plus to purchase an LS house, when they ought as well save it for their own housing, since we (rightfully) suspect that personal housing will also have absurdly high prices.

(o.0 ) Now people on the boards can scream all they like about "entitlement", but the content was heavily advertised as being (A. accessible, (B. at-your-own-pace, and (C. for fun and not for progression.

None of these things are true. o_O Now, if people can farm 16h a day to make 20m a week, that is fine for them - sad, frankly, but whatever - but not many folks can do that.

Even fewer will be motivated to, even though they might be able to grit their teeth and do it, because the absurdity of the work-to-reward ratio is easy to see for those who care to look at the matter objectively.

So, with ostensibly-casual-friendly content in a game supposedly aiming to be friendly to casuals, what is to be said when the content turns out to be, essentially, a three-to-six-month lockout for most everyone except maybe five or six thousand folks who have accumulated over a hundred mil, or perhaps fifty thousand out of the 750k+ subs who have accumulated 5~10m and feel that it would be a wise action to unconditionally surrender said money to their FC leader, trusting that said individual will use it for the stated purpose.

After that, you'd better hope you get a say in how the house gets decorated.

If you read anything about housing, you should know at some point we will get to build "Air Ships."
That we will be able to Fly!!
So it is WAY more then Swag.

To what end?

For what purpose?

Pie in the sky theoretical content in the distant future, nothing more.

Sarcasm on

Yeah because people have no right to be upset about the fact they've been told for month in advance what to expect to see it change two day before the patch.

Sarcasm off

-Price all the same on all server - Nope
-Price of small housing can be afforded by 4-5 man FC - lol 40m house.
-The content going to be accessible - Hahaha

I've played Eve Online, it took us month to build a space station that we ended up loosing anyway. But that what we've been told from the start.
Never they said: "Space station gonna be for everyone".

Here we just told to fuck off because some people have fat wallet. What the Hell ?

I'm pretty sure they actually gave hints long ago that housing is going to take many players at least a year to save up for, which is why many early crafters were in such a rush to make bank.

Seriously though.
A FC can hold 500 people * 250,000 per person = 125,000,000 this can pay for a large, first-class plot nearly in all none legacy servers.
Legacy it's the same, with the added cost of hoarded gil, and gil carried over from 1.0
So the numbers are correct, the bigger issue is SE seems to have forgotten that XIV has no real economy. So making back what is spent
is not easy. I see housing being in large a collection on 90% empty land lots as few will spend gil for something, when there is no real way
to recover the monetary losses. If i had 100,000,000 right now, i would not spend 50,000,000 if a way didn't exist for me to make that gil back.
