Players desiring Small Houses now (while none exist because further instances are not being developed) is a sign that they have never been able to benefit from housing since it was implemented 6 months ago. A desire for a Small House is more about being able to utilize the Gardening feature that is demanded in a significant amount of content and the Chocobo Stables for expanding and personalizing their chocobos.
Players desiring a Medium or Large House are more looking for the Vanity and not the locked-out content.
Since the sole reason people cannot get a Small House is because the developers' unwillingness to provide the instances and the fact that it puts all of these players at a distinct disadvantage to those with gardening/stabling access, i think that Small Houses should be presented at their lowest depreciated value once any new Instances are allowed by the Developers.
I understand the "Supply/Demand" aspect of having over-inflated initial housing prices to slow down the purchases when it's a vanity aspect (medium/large housing), but when it's purely the Developers' fault that people do not have Small Houses and it is purely the Developers' fault that people have missed out on millions of possible gil revenue because of being denied Small Houses; i think Small Houses should be a flat-price to allow these people to finally access content without being taken advantage of in a way that doesn't benefit anyone.

Small houses will be a million or so and has been stated are coming next patch. Also, curb the feelings of entitlement: the developers are to blame for nothing. They are making a game and have been steadily building up to personal housing. As far as missing out on millions of potential gil, you wouldn't have made that had everyone a house as the market would be completely saturated.
Hang tight and wait a few weeks and you'll have your house and garden. -
09-03-2014, 05:15 AMYolteotlActually it has nothing to do with me, FC has a medium-sized house and has had it for about 5 months now.Quote:

My FC is among the many who are homeless... just waiting for SE to add more FC housing again.
Hopefully they do it sooner rather than later. It sucks not being able to take part in the housing content, and I want my personal room! -
09-03-2014, 05:45 AMAlberelFor something of low priority it seems to be coming rather soon... 2.38 is 3 weeks away.Quote:

Was it confirmed that more FC housing wards are coming in the next patch?
I missed that... but if true, that would make my day. -

Pretty sure they confirmed one new ward for each housing area in 2.38. Personal housing will be launching at the same time which will presumably be in another district through the gates in each housing area that are currently locked.

I agree 200%. More wards - more small houses for small FC's so we can do the chocobo and gardening stuff!
-
09-03-2014, 06:26 AMYolteotlIt is rather soon now, but not rather soon relevant to total timespan of the issue. The fact that it is 'rather soon' now is why I made the thread to be like 'There really is no need to further disenfranchise those who could not have housing by inflating the prices when they already are at a disadvantage for their inability to garden and the long amount of time that has been available for those currently housed to garden'Quote:

With gardening - the same problem, medium and large houses allows to get more garden plots -

The only area remotely close to full on my server is Mist. Are there servers where all three districts are full? Don't blame the devs blame the people who used themselves and three alts to self build an FC because they were too impatient for personal housing. Blame all the houses that aren't even used/belong to dead FCs and the fact everyone threw a fit when the devs were going to time out dead FC houses.

09-03-2014, 09:01 AMYolteotlAllow more sure but not necessary. It is necessary to at least have a small house to do any of that at all though regardless of if u can do even more.Quote:

I've only found confirmation that personal houses are coming in 2.38... but I've found nothing from developers saying when they'll add more FC housing.
If there is confirmation on this, does anyone have a link? This housing situation is driving me crazy... just horrible, horrible planning on SE's part. -
09-03-2014, 12:53 PMLitheraNot horrible planning...intentional planning. They can't go crazy with FC Housing wards before they launch the Personal Housing. They need to gauge the impact Personal Housing has on the server network first.Quote:
