    For any who have played Dark Cloud or Dark Chronicles from yeaaaars ago, it was an online version of that.
    Gods the hrs spent min-maxing substats while making a believable town & the early micro-transaction days for houses/decor with better/different sub-stats... don't get me wrong I cared WAY less back then about the small cost for items I liked to make my "digital" town but you can't say it wasn't there & honestly their are times I miss that game (which is why I still have my PS3 & the hard copy IRL)

    you are right thou its "instanced" towns idea was interesting, FF14 could do it in a slightly different way, like signing up for a "Personal" Town instance that requires a min-"parties" signed count, my quess is 24, (be them FC or Player) to be made. All affected "parties" house's would then be moved perminity to this "mini" houseing zone thus freeing up space in reg zones (some system would be needed to transfer a house from this "new" instance back to a reg zone if they become the last house standing & don't wanna stay there or invite others... AND a way to merge houses from 1 instance into another in the case of their being NO reg zone space)

    I don't remember too much as I generally relied on the towns of better players to get me my cotton bolls which is one reason I whole-heartedly approved of their handling of instanced content and community feel
