Ready to quit over housing.

Ishgard is cold and depressing. Unless they offer instanced housing, no thanks.

I adore Ishgardian lore but I have to admit that I have some concerns over housing there. Ishgard is very very very very VERY grey. And where it's not grey it's white with snow and ice. This colour palette will get old very fast if the housing is done in the same style as the city.

However there is the Sea of Clouds, and we know Ishgard is trying to colonise the area. If the housing is located there I would be super interested.

Agreed. For me, even more than the housing design itself (which you can change with some effort), the design of the wards are most important to me. It's why I like Mist more than Shiro- I like the bright, white sandy beaches all facing towards the beach as opposed to beachside housing facing backward or sideways like Shiro.

If Ishgard housing is coming and I don't like the area, I'll probably see if I can relocate my current Shiro mansion to one that opens in The Mist instead and maybe skin it with the Ishgard housing skin if its cool.

I guess the trick would be messing with weather and lighting, and giving some good color options for the house walls or something. I actually really love the look of Ishgard, and the snowy atmosphere, but I can see it all getting a bit same-y if everything is all gray all the time lol

That's the aesthetic some people dig. In fact I'm sure it's why some people want it. I've seen victorian/gothic styled homes with Adam's Family decor plopped in the middle of Mists. Let me wallow in rigid social structure misery thank you.

Nah I'm cool with people liking it and I'm not going to throw a fit if it's as grey as the capital. I'd simply not move my plot location and be happy for other people. I like where I am anyway I was simply expressing why I personally wouldn't be a fan. I -love- colour, so Ishgardian architecture and terrain is unlikely to appeal to me.
