Why is Housing even desired?

[Cherie]

There will never be enough houses...ever. Temporarily there may be when a new subdivision comes out (for maybe two weeks). It's a nice looking system to be sure, but there are so many hardware limitations (server and lovely ps3) to prevent increasing the number of houses indefinitely. I'm kind of surprised they didn't come up with a different housing plan. There is sadly no endgame i see for supply to EVER meet demand. I mean there might have been before they allowed players to share the same lots as fc housing. I guess I can see why people weren't pleased with that design choice. Maybe we will see more with the cleanup of player's houses that quit the game.

Having a house that no one ever goes to but you can get old. I feel good for the people that actually have friends over their house and stuff. But once a friend has seen your house there is like no reason for them to ever go back really, unless you do something drastic to it... "Oh you got a moogle chandelier? Neat!" "Do I need to come see you ask? Nah, I seen one before. I can't figure out how to get to your subdivision anyway!"
