An Open Letter to Yoshida-san: Please Slice One Zero Off the Housing Prices

[LiadansWhisper]

Heaven forbid you have a goal you can't instantly get, that would be stupid. "I think bosses should have one HP and my relic gear should be handed to me. Why should I have to farm tomes? Why is there still a limit? That's so stupid, content should all just be handed to me at the press of a button."


You guys are goofy. Grow up. You don't know more about the game then the people who made it. They have actual data showing how much gil people still have. They didn't just go "Oh man one guy as a ton of gil so we're going to raise prices for every server!" Your gil income is getting increased for just questing, I know plenty of people who make well over a mil a day by just messing with the markets who aren't even that good at it (As good ones will tell you they make tens of millions).

It's supposed to be a big long term goal, not "Oh well I bought this house it's neat, time to never visit it again until next patch!" like you guys want it to be.

I'm sorry that you apparently can't be arsed to actually read the posts and are instead forced to trot out the most common straw man argument instead of actually reading for comprehension.

I really don't understand all the QQ regarding housing, specifically why people even care. I keep reading posts about how people were really really really looking forward to housing as if it was the only thing they were interested in. Are you kidding me? Having a house serves no purpose whatsoever. It's a completely vain nicety that has no impact on how I play FFXIV. What do people even expect to do in these houses...? Walk around and maybe do some /sitting and /dozing on the beds? Wow, that sounds like fun. Or maybe I can craft inside the house because the environment in which I craft is so important!

If the only thing you were looking forward to in 2.1 was housing, then I highly suggest you play a different game--something like Second Life.

I'm a role player. My FC is a role playing guild. Our house was going to be our in-world base of operations. It's kind of a big deal.

But to be honest, it doesn't matter if you understand it or not. You don't have to understand it.
