Housing Suggestions

[Almagnus1]

Why do you always fall into A straw-man fallacy?

Maybe I was giving you too much intellectual credit? I shall correct that mistake.

One person owns two personal homes. One gets force released, another person doesn't have a home, gets one. One person happy, one person sad, a 50/50 split.

One person has 7 alts and all 8 characters own a personal house, and all are in one person FCs, thus one person owns 16 houses. They get reduced down to a personal house and an FC house, losing 14 houses, thus 14 happy. They get mad and leave the game, thus, another 2 people happy. Thus, one person sacrificed, 16 happy.

That's like common sense 101 stuff >.>

dude there's like two successful subscription-based MMOs on the market anymore, and one is this one and the other doesn't have housing, why would you even use that as a reason against it?

Which proves the point that what FFXIV does shouldn't follow what the F2P MMO does because FFXIV is operating on a completely different monetization model, coupled with a general lack of store prompts that infest most of the F2P MMOs out there... so something (like their housing model) may not be as relevant because F2P MMOs can get away with doing server inefficient stuff (like instanced housing) because the F2P MMOs don't have the population that FFXIV does.

Housing is also one of the reasons why WoW grossly simplified the concept and implemented it as the garrison in WoD.
