Apparently. Personal Housing can 850k?

[JTribal]

850k is pretty reasonable between all the gil sources nowadays with maps, challenge log, beatmen daillies, roulette bonuses, etc.

Hmm, I've seen a few women on the corner of my street that make money in real life doing that too XD

Retainers that dont cost 2.00 a month more

I thought that was a one time fee?

I thought that was a one time fee?

Nope, it's a recurring fee.

Sounds about right for a small, and what I thought it would be. I think a medium will be 2 million.

Ooh boy... if the English magazine mis-interpreted this to be "housing will be 850k", SE needs to step up NOW and make the clarification!! ><' Otherwise this is gonna be a shit storm like when they released the FC housing prices.

Which one of you broke mugs is gonna be the first to sign up for a sub-prime eorzean mortgage? Hope you've been working on your moogle credit rating.

Was he in a FC. Didn't he just buy a personal house? ^^

Nope. This was from back when FC House was being discussed and Player Housing was an "at some point in the future" goal.

I am guessing that you are one of the many people that didn't notice during the stream that he was a level 1 LNC (I think it was LNC. I know it wasn't PLD, and it was level 1), but was wearing PLD AF. Nothing in the stream could be taken as "This must be how things are going to be." My LNC is level 35, and I still can't wear PLD AF, so I must be doing something wrong.

My point is; NOTHING was SAID about pricing. People just made crazy assumptions based on something they saw in a video that was intended ONLY to show how the house purchasing process worked. Just like I made a crazy assumption about LNC being able to wear PLD AF (I obviously didn't assume this. It was just to make my point).

The question was point blank raised about the amount of gil being required in the early video. The response then was to not worry too much about the pricing and that it would more than likely be lower than what was shown in the demo.

I wonder if it'll be based on server just like FC housing.

Siliconera posted a translation of the original famitsu article, but they were wrong.
The article has been going doing the rounds. Please upvote for visibility or the QQ when personal housing finally launches will be unbearable.
Straight to the chase.
吉田：snip（個人向けの家の）価格は85万ギルくらいではきびしそう。フリーカンパニーが所有する家ほどは高くしないつもり。
Yoshida: You're not buying a house with only 850k gil. But they will not be as expensive as FC housing.
Despite the way the article was written, it was originally some light banter between Yoshida and assistant director Takai Hiroshi. Hiroshi mentioned that after gifting most of his gil to his FC, he's left with about 850k gil. He wonders if it's enough to get his own shack.
Yoshida replied, "uh, I don't think so".
