Okay first, the majority of servers, have no housing. Hyperion has not had housing since a few months ... maybe 6 after "personal" housing was released which was when? Late 2013; early 2014?! LOL Also, you're right. Jacking up prices for a ONE time gil dump is not the answer.

For one, and I mentioned this in another thread about increasing the price, not EVERYONE has over a 100 million in gil or more. I have a decent amount that would afford me the chance to purchase a medium house but, if SE decides the best way to kill 2 birds with one stone is a massive gil dump, there will be a lot of players who will NOT be happy. Main reason? And people seem to forget this. After the failure of 1.0 this game changed from being a very hardcore group of former XI players to a "game we want to make for everyone." SE's words. Not mine. They made it more "casual" based. Well guess what? Casuals, who also want houses, don't HAVE that type of time to sink into crafting and gathering. At least not to the extent where I see players with over 500 mil in gil THEMSELVES! You also have players as was mentioned earlier in this post, who have more than 2,3,4 or even 5 houses! WTF?! WHY?! I know one player on Hyperion who literally posted on these forums a few months back, she's working on getting all 9 types of house! C'mon now! SE needs to fix THAT issue.

There's a ton of open plots on Mateus, it's just whether you're interested in paying $18 to get a plot now or hoping Square Enix doesn't jack up the price of housing.

I want neighbors... so come to Mateus. :P
Ummm ... you seem to forget that while spending 18 bucks is no big deal, to a degree, that server AKA World, is not in my time zone! LOL Sooo ... I spend 18$ to transfer. Lose 39 mil of gil I have busted my rear for to now be on a low pop server for a stinking house and now have NO ONE in my time zone to play with? Sorry. That's not how this issue gets resolved. It's not.
