Why Housing Was Doomed To Fail

[Shazzinoth]

There was never enough supply, not by half. They did very little actually to fix that.

Just to address the understatement of the year - they actually made it worse by reducing the amount of personal housing.
25% of housing only for personals does not work, especially when on a lot of servers, most FC houses are just not being bought, and then saying it's only going to be addressed once every 4 months is... It's mind boggling how this was thought to be a good idea.

How was that mind boggling? If any at this point it's what's to be expected, they are clearly underestimating how much they are pissing off the community regarding the housing issue. Maybe when they lose even more players to Lost Ark they'll wake the F up.

I understand that the overall percentage of personal housing may have decreased, but hasn't the total number of personal plots on each server increased?

Or they actually shrink or re-zone the previously existing wards like the Goblet? I hadn't noticed that.
