Hey Yoshi, you said personal housing "will be far more affordable."

[Colino]

However, reading this again, I realize that this statement is extremely unclear. Also, because I wrote this quickly to try to quell the uneasiness at the time, I ended up causing even more problems for everyone.

That's fine, but leaving that statement completely unaltered for 9 months was irresponsible.

If the dev-team knew things would change, why not at least tell us in advance? To avoid the negative feedback they're getting now anyway?

Look, I don't even care for Personal Housing at all. In fact I didn't even get a personal room when I had the chance, but I do disagree with how this was handled. It's not even the decision itself, it's just this need to never tell us anything at all and then try to justify it afterwards. Explain these things to us BEFOREHAND and see how many less people complain. Sure you'll get the usual amount of outcry but not nearly at this level.

Also, no shit the average amount of gil has increased. Everyone was saving up for the personal housing YOU said would be affordable.

Trust me, had they known in advance how much it would cost they would not even try to hoard that much gil.

Just make personal housing an instanced area with a small house/garden which we can upgrade the size of when we have enough money for it.

That would require some effort. No sorry we'll just re-use all those lots which we didn't have enough of to begin with. GG.
