Housing is coming in 2.2.

[DoctorMog]

I didn't know the furniture bonus stats were released, where are you getting confirmation that the housing is useless?

Price is high yes, but I'm sure some will buy.

Furniture has no bonus stats.

Banners do.

Didn't see banners in the patch notes.

The Primal Furniture was supposed to provide boosts I heard. There will be 2 Garuda Couches, 2 Ifrit Wall-Lamps, and 2 Exterior Titan Lamps....

There are banners from each GC in the patch notes. Are those the ones ?

They're GC seal trade-ins, not crafted. Rofl. Check 'new GC items'.

Posted this in response to a similar comment on another thread, thought it was worth putting up here:

Yeah... on Balmung, even after the 50% decrease in 90 days, to get a large plot (just the plot, not the house), you'd have to have between 125-156 members contributing a million gil each. To get a plot anytime sooner than that will cost much more.

I can't think of more than 5-10 FCs on my server that possibly have that many members, and assuming for the sake of argument that their members are all mains with regular gil streams (not alts for RP or whatever), I still can't imagine more than a fraction of those players having more than a few 100k on hand. Maybe 1m, at which point theyd be donating their entire savings.

Indeed, most FC's I've seen of that size (not all, but most) are the kind of roflguilds that tend towards "invite first, ask questions later," so I can't imagine they'd have enough loyal players willing to cough up a million or more to fund this kind of venture.

So.. who exactly is going to be buying these?
