Honestly, the reality of what is probably gonna happen is that nothing is gonna change. We're most likely getting the exact same set up as when Shiro launched when Ishgard rolls around with the farms being the compromise for not having private instanced housing.
Agreed. I'm just saying, if a change is done, my suggestion would be more in line with what they're doing. The reason they won't is because they care too much about existing owners, and I don't fault them for that. It is what it is. Like I said before, I've already had my fun with owning a house before, and I'm ok either way now with whatever they decide to do.

That would fit their original design, and give more people access to houses.
I've also mentioned that alternative. I just think, given the current problem, that personal housing would be less prone to abuse than FC housing.
