Stop complaining. You wanted this.

[Besame]

And you may ask yourself, "How do I work this?"
And you may ask yourself, "Where is that beautiful house?"
And you may ask yourself, "This is not my beautiful house."
Same as it ever was, same as it ever was, same as it ever was...same as it ever was.
And you may ask yourself, "Am I right or am I wrong?".
Letting the days go by, water flowing underground...

Here I sit content with what I have, happy I do not have to deal with SE's madness...

They will be a farm game, plant, tend and harvest for the wood texture on your unenterable shack.

when you put it like this sounds like welfare instanced housing lmfao. Jeez. I think it will be a lot nicer than that.

The writing is on the wall. Either you can't see it or refuse to see it.

Indeed it is. The writing is pretty clear. So clear infact that SE has stated it several times.

Island Sanctuaries aren't going to be housing. Period. It's going to be its own thing, revolving around Farming and Ranching. That's all they have said. Anything else is a mixture of delusions and wishful thinking. You're setting yourself up for failure if you think it's going to be anything but just a big ol' farm.

To that end, I hope they let us tend to a herd of Chocobo. That'd be rather comfy.

After today's fiasco I hope this isn't true lol. Either way lottery seems to be shaping up to be a bust.

They should at least let you withdraw your early bought tickets from FC lotteries if there is a massive sudden surge of tickets purchased, small fcs have basically zero chance against organized big FCs that decide to dump 40 tickets into a house an hour before it ends.
It's not you vs 40 different individual participants, its you and your 5 friends vs a conglomerate.

People called this the day lottery was announced. Most people made alts and still didn't win. The 0 bug is wild. Going to have more participants next week with less plots. Total chaos. Guess a lot of people will wait for either Sharlyan or Thavnir housing lmfao.

6.1 isn't even here and the salt is coming in droves. Clicking the placard was horrible it was. For us homeowners that got past it. Congrats boys we now get to watch them complain about the lottery system. I have seen a number of threads begging for a lottery system and now they have given it to you and you still complain. This is exactly what you wanted. Real housing OGs know that simply clicking buy was the best shit in the world. We could have begged to have gone back to that but instead you wanted lottery. Well when 6.1 drops you'll have it. Good luck. Odds are you'll win the cactpot before you win a house. inb4 someone says clicking the placard was better.

Or just stop using bots to buy your houses and we wouldn't need to rely on a shaky lotto system for some semblance of fairness. Stop price gauging housing in private discords and linkshells so that someone is paying twice as much as what they should for a plot just so they can have access to the game. You really going to be up here saying "Stop complaining" when you know the point and click system you're glorifying is rife with cheating and hacking? Go eff yourself dude. You're part of the problem.

No one is glorifying anything. Some housing systems were better than others. You sound upset, maybe you didn't win a house today? Lottery system clearly has not worked out this week. Maybe by next week they will fix the issues. Good luck to you. You may want to try to cactpot instead of the housing if your luck is running dry.

I mean, we had a perfectly functioning system where if you saw an empty house you could simply walk up and buy it. No bots, no bid shenanigans, no bugs, no shakiness; just you and good timing and the open road.

People hated it. So.. here we are. Your peers demanded this.
