Worst housing system in the world

[BaroLlyonesse]

ah yes, the armchair accountant
"they cant do it, it's too expensive. the awful way it is is a necessary evil"
"if square enix did it, they wouldn't break even on their expenses"
im not dignifying this with more than theyre probably making 600 million a month on entry level subs alone.

Not for nothing, but aren't you just doing the exact same thing? You're just presuming that they have the money, so why should anyone dignify your thoughts, either? We don't know how expenses are working for them, so to presume either way is folly. What isn't folly is to listen to the developers. They've been very open with their mistakes and limitations, including definitely not-lying about the parts shortage; it can be proven.

even if they tell you it'd be hard they're probably lying.

Why? What's the logic behind them lying here? Isn't a bureaucratic process still 'hard'? Case in point: I work for a corporation, and I explained five years ago that a project I was working on would save money. Four years later, they implemented, and immediately saved several hundred thousand a month. The comments from up top: 'Why didn't we do this earlier?' Well, because you blocked me, and it was hard to get it through.

Look at this from a different point of view: If they could do everything people in this thread ask for, instanced housing, free housing, easier furniture, all of that... why wouldn't they, regardless of work required? It would reduce their overall stress, remove negative comments and therefore increase new populations and higher retention rates, and generally gain positive press. So there have to be actual reasons why it's not happening.

You sound really burned by all this, which I understand, but I'm not certain your logic is any better than anyone else's.
