WHAT?! 625 Million for first class House?

[Wilan]

Calling houses a luxury is just stupid. The big villa may be considered a luxury, but housing itself is a FEATURE. Like, "hey in this game you can kill stuff you can craft stuff and oh you can have your own house" kind of feature.
This kind of content is usually targeted at those who are not interested in grinding and doing endgame content the whole time, who play a game to feel immersed in the game's world, to enjoy spending hours just happily doing emotes with their friends chilling out in their company's headquarter, rather than play with the numbers and only care about the next drop.
Yet, with prices like these, the only people who can use this feature are only the most hardcore players, leaving the players who are actually intended to be the target of the housing system outside.

Sorry, am I the only one who's finding this whole thing absurd? Like, not making ANY SENSE at all?

QFT.

And the worse part of it is that buying land is the very first step in order to start using the housing system. Without it you can't do anything, you can't see any kind of progress or say "Phew guys, after 3 months we finally got to finish decorating that room with what we wanted, it looks awesome with that EX Primals and Coil furniture. Now we can start with the rest". No, you can only see the gil on your bank slowly growing (super fun), without being able to play that content. Would you like that after you talk with J'brohka to enter Coil she tells you "Ok, and now I need you to bring me 100 millions of gil to... uhm... Oh, yeah, to buy explosives to open a new entrance for you *Smile*"? It wouldn't be fun, right? I know I would have wanted to kill her if she had told me that.
