Bring back the Mog House!

[gifthorse]

You make a very valid point, It was a bit dreary and lonely. It would be cool if you could not only invite your friends/party inside but host events or play board games, monopoly, battle ship anyone? or triple triad maybe? (even though I never played triple triad, just a suggestion). There are so many cool directions they can go with this. How about picking or earning cool housing locations? Having tool benches for alchemy, blacksmithing ect, to hold you supplies or refrigerators to keep all you cooking ingredients in

The main reason it was lonely was because it was totally instanced. You didn't have neighbours, a view, etc.

Other games allow you to physically build your house anywhere you want in the game world, providing its flat land. FFXI didn't even let you choose the shape of your mog house or the colour of your walls etc.

I understand this is SE and they hate freedom so we'll never see something so interesting in FFXIV, but some kind of happy compromise such as an instanced zone with tree-lined streets and neighbours or something would be ok.
