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

[KraggyKor]

I think the major thing people are upset about is that the housing was the most anticipated feature of 2.1 and, whilst the pricing structure -is- in the best interests of long term game health, the inability to experience the fun of fiddling with your house on day 1 of the patch is a similar feeling to being told the patch will be delayed 2 months.

NO, it's MUCH worse that that .. this pricing means SE have PLANNED on 20% of FCs not being able to afford it after THREE months, so your analogy is wrong and should be comparing housing to an INDEFINITE DELAY!

If prices were cheap enough, someone would be a beast and just buy 100x the land deeds, and then sell those for profit. It's as if they pre-emptively figured out how people would try to gamble what is potentially a new market, and did something about it.

And the world continues to complain.

LOL, are you being deliberately obtuse or what?

SE can simply make the deeds NON-TRADEABLE for a period of months and/or until the house had been upgraded by x%.
