Latest comment from Yoshida regarding Housing + Inventory space issue

[Rustyhagun]

All the communicating he has done for this game... I think we can cut him some slack where this is concerned.

They give us live letters for crying out loud... what other company does this?

[xXRaineXx]

^ This.

I have never seen a Director/Producer be so passionate for the game and his fans. I mean he STOOD for straight hours for signing today, no table separating his fans (just a small stool next to him so he had something he could sign on), no chair, had 2 coke bottles on his table which was NOT touched for the entire day. Free photo sessions, skin contact was okay too.

I've been to many conventions and events where I attended autograph sessions. Never have a I seen a person stand for hours. Oh did I mention Superdry was the 'cameraman'? lewl

Standing for hours isn't all too special errr as an RN I stand and run about most of my shift...I think many many ppl do everyday lol

Its good you got to see him though!, but it is obvious (imo) he is oblivious to the main concerns with housing ppl are having and tbh to me a distinct vibe, he doesn't really care personal pride>product quality I assume , as it is with most ff series.

Personal housing is not an achievement nor should it be, but simply fun fluff that should be available to everyone from the start ( now that's just my opinion!) but making in line "work wise" or "achievement wise" with relic upgrades as you said is almost embarrassing if they think that way. lol sad.

just my 2 gil.

Are you or any of your co-workers famous? Does your company depend on your every single action? One misstep and tumbles down Humpty Dumpty?

I am an English teacher, I stand for over 60% of my day as well when I not in class. But that's not special.

What I meant is, with all the dev's I've seen so far including Celebs for a meet and greet, this was the most personal out of them all.

Also, I respect your opinion. Personally, I think it would be pointless if it's available straight from the start

Housing is a personal achievement. Do you know how I have come to that conclusion? The game's director said it is. People really need to understand that. This game's housing is a gil sink and something you're are supposed to dedicate TIME towards getting it. If you want casual housing this is not the game for you.

[xXRaineXx]

Good words.

Sometimes I like to visit random wards and trespass random homes *cough* Then I see how much FC's have dedicated their time to decorate their little base, it's really cool to see that; I even feel envious. But if everyone could simply get houses... I probably wouldn't even bother with it.

Please tell me you weren't serious with this, and that this was sarcasm over the internet.

housing is the last place I would want to get thrown in the pit of ridiculousness that is hardcore and casual...

Especially in light of other mmos having a better more expansive system for cheaper compared to this.

Whao it is like saying ATMA farming takes great skill.

Achievement does not mean skill. If you think it does, then you got a lot to learn in life

Getting your Relic takes low to no skill, upgrading that Relic takes no skill, it takes no skill infusing materia into it. But upgrading your Relic to max upgrade is an ACHIEVEMENT, not many others can or will do this.

Dedication does not require skill, but perseverance and effort to reach your goal.

Why does this need to be an expensive ball and chain around maintaining our subscriptions?

It's not combat, its not a title, I don't go around perusing other houses (I'm too busy "lazing about" with mining and df) , and It doesn't raise my dps or better myself as a character by getting one.

Why all the red tape and baggage just for your own place to sit down?
