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

[Beimer]

Obviously Square Enix is catering to the wealthy & the RMT "Real Money Traders" that spent real money to purchase millions of gill so they can gloat in there million dollar housings!

Every on knows how hard it is to earn gil it takes me with a high lvl miner almost 6 hrs of play to mine 200K in ores.

Unless thats all you do period is gather, fish, mine, etc. ant nothing more it would take an average person that plays 2 to 3 hrs a day 1 year and 2 weeks to earn 7 mil.

SE is obviously being paid of some how or this would not of happened dont belive what they say for the numbers answer it all!

RMT "Real Money Traders" have been selling gill on this game sense the first version came out!

Se not only needs to delete those RMT's but the people that purchased millions of gill as well!

It is clearly stated in the Game contract and SE has admited they know who has the millions of gil!

You have been lieing to us from the start for you promised us you would eliminate the RMT and the people that purchased large amounts of gill instead you cater to the wealthy and create a monoply especially if those housing deeds could be sold!
You should of been at least set it up that housing is permanate that cannot be sold and limit housing to one per paying customer period no one not even people with multiple accounts should be allouded more than one because most of them are RMT's that will sell that account with real money!
This is the one an only to be fare!
Allowing the corupt with millions of gill to have special previlidges is dishonorable!
It shows who you realy are to allow this to happen!

[Beimer]

Exactually how much gil did you purchase online from a RMT?
It is impossible to earn $35,000,000 gill playing fair!
The Game is corupt for the weathy 1% in the game!
How would you like it if the 99% that dont have that privelige leave you think you 1% can support the funds needed to keep the game running?

So since it was stated before that FC housing would cost about 3 people lvling from 1-50 and we have these prices. What makes anyone believe that the personal housing will be "affordable" or even be there at all. I mean right now your having issues with server space for fc housing which is significantly less plots than personal will ever have. So your telling me we don't have enough server space to cover the amount of fc's in the game, but we're going to be able to cover every single person with a house that is fully customizable in a neighborhood the same size or larger than fc housing neighborhoods? Might want to prep your cardboard boxes to be permanent residences.

Just sell titan runs all the day from weeks, every day. I know a lot of players with many more millions than you imagine, not bough with RMT. Still ye, the system is heavily corrupted, most bought money from RMT and go free.

You know when things goes fun? When you discover further plans: personal housing coming soon is a room of a billionaire huge FC house we are forced to pay and own already, and hundred players are expected to have their room on that (obiouvsly if paying ).
Talking about realism and immersion, assuming technically the personal room would be a separate istance like inn room to not overload the main house istance (with hundred noones you didn't ever met with the same FC tag running around or doing a doze), explain me the sense of how that max-size house had hundred rooms..

Shame, i was looking forward at least for personal housing, it would have kept me quite interested for long. Let's see if a certain mmo coming on April has plans on it

My sincere congrats to you & your FC. It's nice when housing prices are inline with in-game earnings plus shrewd market board sales.

The equivalent on legacy worlds would have required an additional 213M gil and 525M gil to be brought in from outside the ARR economy. That's approximately 3M or 7M more per member of Mimic.

So the real question is do you think that he'd still be boasting the large fc house in the forums or if they'd be boasting the small one that they could afford if they were on your server?

It's actually alright though you know I just sort of sit in NINJA's front yard on Malboro and drive down their land value because I'm a homeless person that hangs out at their fire pit trying to keep warm through the snowy season. Anybody is welcome to join me of course who am I to say whether you can hang out in NINJA's front lawn.

I figure a better way is to ... restrict house plot size to number of players available to ensure that more small houses are bought than large.

Sorry - but I actually quite disaggree with this. The price should be "prohibitive" enough (and no - I don't mean current "smoked-up" prices but the realistic ones about 10 - 20 times less) and introducing additional obstacle like amount of FC members will put small tightly knit FCs to dissadvantage. Why should be small FC restricted from purchasing Medium or Even Large plot / house if they want to and can afford it (again in the realistic pricing)? And for those saying why would small FC want / need that:

- Because they can / want
- To be able to have the Workshop (Only possible in Large - main reason for me actually)
- Because they want to be able to expand their membership base in the future if needed without wasting money by loosing majority (if not all) of the investments in the smaller property and furnishings

Also - I'm not that much sure about "purchasing" the FC plot with FC credits (only) as that would (again) put in dissadvantage small FCs or those who concentrate mainly on crafting as those barelly generate enough credits. Maybe some reasonable combination of gil & FC credits (let's say up to 100 000 credits) would be acceptable as you would gain about that just by leveling to Rank 6 unless indeed you've used it for company actions.
