Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Malakai]

Found another board (in miners guild) that could be used as a FC message board for notifications and stuff. So players don't have to go to forums or websites to check things.

Thank you for the new seeds! Suggestion though, can we try our hand at fungiculture?

Doesn't have to be entirely accurate to life, but I think it would be kind of nice to be able to take items like Button Mushrooms and Black Truffles, and effectively use them as seeds to harvest more.

I'd also be incline to think it would be nice if letting crops spoil could result in the harvesting of pests... Botanists (and Fishers) can gather a fair few slugs and other insects... Lets say I leave a rare crop to wither, perhaps some silkworms did the deed and I obtain some silkworm cocoons in the process? IDK, might be overkill essentially giving Gardening access to almost all of Botanists Gathering Log... A nice idea though...

While I totally appreciate the lighting feature it would be nice if at some point we could get it separated into upstairs/downstairs. Sometimes you want your basement dark while your upstairs is bright and cheery!

I came here specifically to suggest this as well

Ello!

I believe someone made this request before, but pretty please, give us trees to use inside the house this Xmas / Starlight Celebration!

And not white trees. Green leaves!

Maybe with some blinking lights on it, that would be amazing with the new feature to turn off the house's lights!

Thanks!

I just wish that partitions were affected by the light changes as the normal walls are. They begin to not match their respective brightness when you put the lights down. While you're at it, have full wall partitions on each floor adopt the wallpaper for that floor.

Stack of Books / Pile of Books as a tabletop furnishing, not a furnishing (i.e. can only go on the floor).

I want a pile of books on my table!

(Also, thank you for all the housing goodies we got this week. New, dyeable doors? I CAN FINALLY DYE MANOR SOFA? LIGHTING LEVELS??? It's like christmas came early.)

From my original post.

Furniture Suggestion: Sandbox "Spring" toy !

Replace the silly seahorse with maybe a chocobo, wyrm, dodo, coblyn?

(im not exactly sure what this sandbox toy is called in other languages, so im just gonna call it ""Spring Toy")

Im hoping mr Yoshi-P & the dev-team can give us something simmilar
"Final Fantasy Theme'd" rideable "spring" toy for our free company houses.

This toy should be an outdoor toy/object that anyone can mount, and swing back & forth on.

Standing around just isnt as cool as riding a toy like this in the garden for no obvious reason,
but atleast it's a fun thing. ....and i love fun things to place in the garden.

Also, Consider making it "Portable" so i can bring this thing with me on adventures & put it on the ground anywhere in the world of Eorzea.
(Mainly for awesome / fun screenshot purpose ofcourse) - They did something like this in World of Warcraft by the way.

So Pretty Please FFXIV Team, make it happen pleeeeeeaaaase !!! XD

(also, thank you for the Housing light settings!)

oh! and please dont forget to look into adding "Fish-tanks" as you promised yoshi-p!
(We old FFXI "Mog-House" veterans love our Fish tanks!)

I assume this has been suggested before but 93 pages are a lot to read through, so..
can we please have simple, plain, white wallpapers? Everything is incredibly colorful or busy. But paintings and portraits and other wall furniture could stand out so much nicer on a simple, white wall.
It would also help to not have trouble with colors not going well together if you already have colorful furniture.

Something like the stone cieling in Limsa would do, or it could be normal wallpaper without any imposing structure on it.

Can we please remove the 50 items only restriction for the individual room?
