Time on House removal/reclaming is way to short! (private houseing)

[Kinseykinz]

Not see the main issue tho? What if I spent months building up my house then had to step out do to overplaying and becoming exhausted, I want to take a 2 month break to cram in things i've missed the past year bingeing on this game.

That 45 day limit forces you to pay a sub each month-ish just so you can keep your house you spent 10m/40m/60m on> (like I said, extortion). No other MMO does that!

I'm a very active player and have been since launch but when fatigue comes in and I need a break that means i'll lose millions just like that If I don't get back on when they say? They need to raise the limit to 90 days cause that house took more then a month to build up and i'll be dammed if I lose it in a fraction of the time.

The thing is some gamers like variety, they can't just play the same game each day every month till it dies out so they have to play it in bursts.

You get all your non-rare stuff+ 80% of your gil back. More than fair.

Another way of looking at it: If you took a 3 month break and didn't have a house, you wouldn't expect your gear to still be current or have value right? And every piece of gear you buy in game, once used=no money back right? So really, they are being kind in giving you back as much as they are with housing when you took a break.

Heck, you could even take advantage of this new system to get your gil back from a house if you ever wanted to upgrade or needed the gil for something. Yes, it'd mean not using your home for 45 days, and you'd have to wait...but people could purposefully use this as a way of regaining much of their investment to move up, or invest in their character in a different way.


And this of course, only would happen to you if you stopped playing/using the house for 3+ months. It'd also only happen if no one else you share the home with accesses it in the same time. (Being able to share personal homes w/ up to 5 people is inc....so really, if you know you need to go on an extended break, allow a trusted friend who's going to continue to play access to your home...even if it's on their alt=problem solved)

This is the fairest way for SE to make sure all resources are used by paying customers, limit the need for extra wards, and yet, still give more people the option for homes. Also, this is step 1 of their multiple step housing system fix/upgrade. But there is no reason for SE to waste resources on non paying customers. It's bad business actually.
