Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[InkstainedGwyn]

Hate to say it but this is just a real life issue. When you buy a house, you're going to be OMG look at all the space I have I'll never fill it. Fast forward a few years and you'll be wishing you had a bigger house or complaining about having too much stuff.

It is and it isn't. While one can argue that if you don't try to do 'fance' things with your house (like clipping, lofts, waterfalls, etc), you should have enough room to make it look lived-in, the fact is that we had to scrap a lot of the cool ideas we had for our medium because we either had to choose between an indoor garden or actually being able to put lamps out and pictures on the wall. It looks very empty, and I'm very sad about that.

I know I'd max out another 50 slots and keep asking for more, etc. etc. but I've also made a list of everything I would add to my house if I could, and it comes to wanting about 50-75 more slots. And given that a medium is roughly 250-300% of the space of a small (if you double the small you get the main/basement of the medium - and then add a top floor), I think not even having 200% of the items is too little.

200/400/600 sounds fine to me.

I Agree that we do not have enough space because there is too many restrictions & that also getting more space would encourage everyone to want even more afterward but even then, ineractive items make other items disappear, & I myself also speak about outside too, like while I get that server stress is real with wards, I wanted to put hedges around my whole medium house, couldn't do it, because we are not allowed to layout enough items, so at the cost of having hedges all around the plot, I cant put anything else on the land, its barely if gardens fit.Housing could be 1000times better with simple contributions (as things like this: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...g-new-stuff-SE )but instead we get ppl defending discountinuation of gears & content with items lvls & much more like everyone who would jump on anger housing threads to say everything is fine & then insult others who claim there is a problem with the whole system.I want a revamp of wards (exterior land:change house facing,move positions, more allowance for items layout) & inside customization over a new expansion to the game.

Some suggestions I would love to see.

- Possibility to change Interior or remove Pillars (Toggle or extra Interior slot)
- Make current housing Skins (Base/Roof chimney/Awning) Free to use in all wards. (Also Doors/Windows etc)
- Add new Housing skins outside of the Workshop ( like the current Walls and roofs items) also either make them purchasable or made by crafters.

More magical implements / artifacts would be great!
crystal balls, tarot cards for astrologians, glowy magic circles / effects (place them like a rug or wall hanging) open magic tomes, etc

Also:
- An unfurled map that can be placed on a table (the current map table is just huge)
- A blackboard / schematic board
- more wall hangings / pictures / schematics / sconces / lamps that aren't interactive
- more vases / plants that aren't interactive
- profession-based items. (toolboxes, woodworkers tools, looms / sewing kits / etc)
- victorian-inspired furniture (fringe lamps, tufted velvet couches & settees, iron poster beds, etc)

Housing skins outside the company workshop would be a dream come true...

Usable astroscopes!
I always thought it would be so neat, if it could be interactive. It could use a similar zoom thing affect that's been used for many quests. We could use it to zoom in on the sky, and actually go star gazing!

Here's a housing request.

Change the Demolition requirements so they only effect players who are not actively subscribed for the current demolition time frame.

Paying subscribers should not have their housing or housing items destroyed if they are paying for the subscription even if they haven't checked their homes.

Why are you not going inside your house if you are still subscribed though? >o>

Strands of twinkling lights (multi-colored and white versions) without all of the Starlight decorations!
