How would the playerbase feel about buying a housing plot from the MogStation?

[Rinuko]

I can actually see SE doing something like this with future housing. In order to buy a plot, you need to first by a token off of the Mogstation. The reasoning behind this will be to limit the amount of players that can buy a house and somehow ease the burden on their servers. The token will be tradeable too.

You know that going turn into actual RMT. Person A buy token for real money. Person B buy it from person A in PF for Gil

If they add it to the mogstation, it would have to be a in game trade-able token. It's the same thing when looking at other games and you see things like token items for game time. By definition: Real-Money Trade, or RMT for short, refers to the practice of exchanging in-game goods or services for real-world cash. Such goods and services commonly include gil, powerleveling, and even entire accounts and characters.

They already have shown they do not care about RMT because they have a cash shop which is very much RMT (in game resources such as mounts, outfits, dyes, jump potions (essentially a character) ect for money), the difference is it supports the parent company and not a third party.

While this game SHOULD NOT have a cash shop because it is sub based, it does and as such SE actively partakes in RMT. Something like a housing token would be the only way to go forward with a mogstation house. The goal of the token is to provide a in game house, not make gil. That is just a potential outcome.
