    The point is you seem to desire to see other players. You don't like players hanging out inside instances. The MMO of real communities were dead the instant they made cross server groups. What does it matter if you see someone standing in front of a house? Core game play is instanced players just don't have to see each other. You seem to think game play should be designed around the idea that players should idle next to each other.

    Players in instanced housing has nothing to do with housing or garrisons. If gameplay is designed that open world interaction is pointless. Which it is currently in FF14. Once you have reached a certain gil amount you would never have to see another player outside an instance. Hell Once MSQ has everything unlocked you have zero reason to be outside. That is not the fault of instanced housing.

    Instanced housing doesn't need to be done right. You have an instance, players have a house period. If developers can't convince you to go outside that is a game play flaw not a house flaw.

    I realise I have double posted now but I can't believe someone has just said this. Instanced housing doesn't need to be done right? What?

    Well if that's what you want your wish has already come halfway. Apartments are instanced and they're most certainly not done right at all.
