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

[tosmall]

Not to sound like im complaining but if ur worried about players buying up all the housing because they are rich would the obvious answer be to make it so fc's could only purchase 1 house and give the rest of us a chance tobuy a house instead of just these wealthy players you are trying not to let buy everything. It just seems idiotic too me that your solution to stopping the wealthy from buying them all is to make it so only the wealthy can buy them. In the meantime the rest of us have to wait to get content which we have been looking forward to for ages whilst the wealthy get to buy it all up before we can get achance. I mean come on how many months we going to have to wait for this new content we got promised just because we are not hoarding gil.

I think the scheme is fine. If a guild wants to be the first to buy a house and get the biggest one, thats a 120mil+ sink, thereby taking out a rich guild relatively fast. The other option would have been to put up houses cheap and have that same guild buy everything up and sell it for even higher prices. I just find it funny so many people are crapping their pants because they can't build their perfect house on day 1. I miss the days when people just played the game they were given instead of trying to change every stupid thing because it doesn't fit their personal agenda. What's even more laughable are people canceling their sub because of side content to the game not being attainable instantly. SE is doing fine IMO, and im glad i have something to strive for for a few months instead of being handed everything and then choosing to quit out of boredom.

Of course it's fine in your opinion, you are on one of the cheaper servers. Please, please, at least TRY to see it from the point of view of someone on the more expensive and most expensive servers. This is NOT attainable unless they drastically change the prices in 3 months.

Reposting my earlier comparison to try to elicit some empathy:

What if you chose a Legacy server because your friends were there. But due to the Legacy server having a higher population that already had relics, they decided to slow down this progression for everyone. Now, instead of going through the same amount of effort to get a relic as other servers, because you're on Legacy and other players already have them, you have to win Chimera 10 times instead of 1. You also have to beat each hard primal 10 times as opposed to 1. You have to get the base weapon and meld it 10 times instead of just 1.

But, that's not fair!!! Oh, but you see, there are so many people that already have relics, even some players that have a relic for every job, so you see, we needed to limit the number of people that got relics. So sorry, these requirements will ease up in the next 3-6 months. In the meantime, enjoy the rest of the content!
