Our group could probably raise the 8m -10m for the smallest, crappiest plot on our server but no one wants to now. Because we weren't hoping for a HUGE plot but something midsized where a group of 30 active players could hang out. The richest person in my FC has 2.1m. Some have under 100k. For a mid sized plot we're looking at 30m+

Why reduce teleportation rates, airship, ferry and repair costs if you then do this? Your logic eludes me. If players are spending too much gil on those things... how on earth do you justify this?

If costs of those I'm just glad I'm not on a legacy server... I'm not sure we'll be bothering as a group to do this. For what is essentially a way to just get players grinding it's deeply unreasonable.

Player expectations were poorly managed on this and the delivery is appalling.
