They should rename the game Final Reality XIV: A Capitalist Realm.

I'm still trying to wrap my mind around the reason they formed the housing system to the point where the people in charge of housing looked at real estate and took that, instead of making housing reasonably obtainable, since its a fantasy world and people shouldn't practically alter their lives and neglect life responsibilities all for housing, which is just a side feature. To see a FFXIV version of the the 1% rich and famous, should not belong in this game in the first place. Obtaining multiple plots reminds me of a Monopoly, staying up late at night like the opening of purchasing rooms in a new apartment complex, and a game that has near similar concepts as these things? This should be nowhere near an MMO fantasy world.

All in all, I personally wanted a mansion, but since SE made it unrealistically obtainable for me, I'll have to either save up for 3.0's Ishgard implementation, or never participate in one of my favorite things that a game can offer, because by the time I DO have enough for a mansion, the other people who have more time than I do to save up will get it first.
