Never, buying a house in FFXIV is when they get you. Now you have to maintain a sub and log in even when there is no content in the game.

But really it should be removed, they said a long time ago this would never happen and its in the game. It's another great example of Yoshi P lying to the player base. Is what they need to do is take houses away from players that have been grandfathered into owning multiple houses, create instance housing, add more housing wards ect. These are things that should have happened years ago but the developers always have some sort of excuse as to why they can't. Maybe once an expansion we get some sort of housing update, but its never enough because SE has let players grandfather older systems. On Gilgamesh there are multiple wards that are owned by a single player and that is the sort of things that should never have been allowed to begin with. Even WoW had instance housing at one point with the Garrisons and that game is way older than FFXIV.

But again they will never remove the timer because SE knows its a great way to force people to pay money. It's like getting locked into a bad lease.

People have this weird "all or nothing" obsession when playing games.
I wouldn't consider this an all or nothing obsession. I would simply call it a bad system that could be fixed in other ways than locking players into keeping a sub and logging into the game to keep a house. The demolition timer is like putting a band aid on a gaping wound.
