I definately like your car anology and definately agree with the premise that ffxiv is good game in its infant stage. We don't know where this game is going yet but it has the potential to be really good. So far I like the baseline of the game and can't wait for the mature stages.

One thing I want them to do with housing in addition to personal housing/rooms is to add some ultility to housing. Adding the crafting stations was a step in the right direction but there needs to be more. Like buffs, and unique effects that can only be given by fc housing/ personal housing and if you have both even MORE benifits.

... burning piece of crap... hehehe ffxiv 1.0. I think I speak for most of us when I say, thank square for Yoshi P.
