    There are still countless Small Plots available at the moment, it's not like he won't still have his chance once individuals are allowed to purchase new plots. It's absolutely fair that FCs get dibs on Large and Medium houses.

    The whole housing system is still broken though, it's just not quite as bad as before.

    You're right, it is absolutely fair that FCs get dibs on Large and Medium houses. However you're missing the main point of the post, it's that the situation is UNFAIR for individuals. Why in gods name is it so hard for Square Enix to put in enough houses for everyone? It's a fucking game that we're investing our time into, they can create as much virtual space as they want to. I love FFXIV, but this whole thing is honestly ruining the enjoyment of the game for players like us.

    FFXIV easily has, from a technical standpoint, the worst player housing I've ever seen in an MMORPG, you won't see me disagreeing here. The point remains that there are still countless Small and even quite a few non-Shirogane Medium plots available. They're not all gone, individuals will still have their chance; so at least wait until you've actually been screwed before complaining x)

    Problem is that small plots are a total waste of time, honestly they shouldn't even exist. But don't worry, I plan to sit here and watch as anything worth buying gets snatched up seeing as we have no choice at this point. Again, I don't see how it's so hard to actually add more wards. The only thing they are doing is pissing off the community and turning people off of games like this.

    Ah ok. I figured you must be new here.

    Contrary to what you believe, it's not so simple to just "ADD MORE WARDS HURR!!1!"
    Wards were not designed in the best way. While houses are instanced, wards are not. They take up server space, something with Square Enix apparently doesnt have a lot of.

    You'll find many requests are met with "We can't, server limitations!" or some other thing relating to the terrible archaic spaghetti code thats a remnant from 1.0.

    So they release the housing system as broken on patch 1.0 and it's still not fixed by 4.2? They have players who have paid $60 which is a full priced game, on top of paying $15 a month just to play the game which is more than an xbox live membership and I'm expected to believe that this situation isn't preventable? It's not a matter of being new, it's a matter of common sense.

    Housing is a secondary point. Housing wasn't even released in 1.0.

    What they're referring to is the actual game history. 1.0 was bad. 1.0 was effectively scrapped. You can dig around for videos about the end of 1.0. All that Calamity stuff you learned about at the beginning of the story? That was 1.0. The Calamity was the devs ending 1.0 so they could redo the game. But to get it out fast, 2.0 had to be built on the broken rubble of 1.0, which at the time worked well enough, but as years go by, they continue discovering all the limits and restrictions they accidentally built for themselves. Many of these problems simply aren't fixable without gutting everything to start over. So most of them are simple worked around with alternative solutions.

    Ah, ok, the real problem isn't the scarcity of plots in general, it's the scarcity of plots you think aren't beneath you. Got it.

    Oh yes, I should be content with fitting 3+ people in a small house because we refuse to leave our FC to enjoy the game. Makes TOTAL sense -_-
