Housing is a topic that needs in general a fix.
It cant be that you have housing in this game with servers full of thousands over thousands of players, and then this game actually makes it possible only for like a few hundred of them to actually own a house (among which are many FC Headquarts and actually no personal houses), while everyone else is forced to have maximum only an appartment. Thats pathetic.

Housing has to be possible for everyone. I don't need to have for this extra full housing villages. Would be enough if my house is just a personal instance to which I could invite others, it doesnt need to stand for me extra in an instanced village full of houses from others.

Make Housing if that needs to be a thing that costs like 1 Dollar/Euro rent a half year, thats 2 Dollar/Euro a year, if that use only 1 million active players theb does earn housibg 2 million cash that should be more than enough money alone already to upgrade servers with more than enough bandwith to ensure that everyone can have own houses who actually want to have one, because only due to that feature being there, doen't mean that all players want also to use it.
Not every player must be into housing and likes it, ther are also alot of player which don't care themself about housing in FF14 at all.

But everyone who cares about it, should also be able to use that feature, without being forced to play any plot lottery for years!!! Thats just ridiculous.
