Actually, it most certainly is. They said the price is high so that land wont sell out, meaning there is a finite amount of land. Reading between the lines, they are not implementing enough server capacity for all FCs to purchase land. So not only is the high cost off putting to so many people, even if they did consider endeavoring to save up the gil they need, there is no guarantee land will be available to them once they have.

Arbitrarily restricting content because they are not providing sufficient server resources is BS and unacceptable. Especially considering the successful launch (and tons of cash flow that resulted).

BTW, when the developers were hyping this content the entire time, the cost they were suggesting is about 10 times less than it ended up being (and that's not even considering the inflated prices for legacy servers). No one is kidding themselves, they were simply misled by the devs, as has been the case on multiple fronts in this game.
