What happened to 800k personal housing?

Seems this is the way for SE to fix the issue of players forming 1-man Free Companies to get an FC house all for themselves.

They made it a regular thing and removed the FC requirement.

Seems I don't have enough to get my personal large house as I wanted, but at least my friends and I will be able to finally get our FC a small.... I hope I can make it.

I dunno, I'm probably in the minority here but I would say anything that either deters people from moving to or encourages them to move away from overpopulated servers is a good thing in the grand scheme.

If that were the case, we honestly would've seen Excalibur and Balmung reach equilibrium with other servers a long time ago.

Everyone wants handouts. You want a house, earn it. Me and my boyfriend started our own fc ranked it up on our own (no other members) with 2 alts to buy a house. At first we saved for a small (4.5 million). Then a medium (25 million). We did NOT use rmt or sell carries, we worked damn hard playing the market/crafting to get it legit. All the people complaining that all they want is their dream house could have done the same thing we did. Work for it. You now are afforded an option to buy without grinding up a fc first, something not available previously.

I agree with this, cause me and my wife did the same thing.
At the same time, I still think its complete crap they lied about prices being way lower and instanced.
We did that work for an FC house, but for personal housing , SE just straight bullcrapped everyone.

It's called Plan B by SE.

This was a major feature for me and they just killed it. I am so fed up with this game, RNG and pointless gil sinks. It's time to move on.

like another said, they should turn the inn room onto our personal rooms (like the MH of 11) like it should of been from the start...

You know for an MMO that has serious RMT issues, crap like this sure as hell isn't helping reduce it, to many weak people as is, all this will do is make them more attractive for weak/terrible players, which means far more black listing in the future.

Talk about reverse progression.

I was also looking foward to this but with those prices it's not going to happen, I just want to know why we were we lied to, this is NOT "far more affordable"

[cryptic_angel]

It isn't that people don't want to work for it. It's that we've been mislead, at least a couple times now.

SE sucks at communication and managing expectations. =/ nothing can really be done about it.

If you roll with a Coil static and sell carries on your alts that's how to afford a house. Who would've guessed. It's no mystery as to why they oppose unlocked 2nd Coil in solo queue Duty Finder.

Remember when 2.0 was going to keep the old combat system? Remember when 2.0 was going to release on January 2013? Remember when CT was going to be included at 2.0's launch? Remember when FC housing would only cost "about 3.x the gil you can make from leveling from 1 to 50"? Remember when FC Primal summoning and roaming primals were heavily advertised and planned to be launched shortly after launch? Remember when the Golden Saucer was heavily advertised and scheduled for around 2.3-2.4? (though you can still give them the benefit of doubt on that one, but going by recent interviews it most likely won't make it to 2.4)

You should know by now to never ever trust anything that's mentioned about this game, it'll only result in disappointment every time.
