Housing Rant

[DeNada]

There's nothing wrong with owning multiple services accounts to partake more of the game content you enjoy. Those who do are paying more to get the additional access.

The problem is SE not limiting the number of houses a single service account can have when there are not enough houses for every service account to have one house let alone multiple houses. The problem is SE prioritizing FCs without setting standards for what separates a FC from a solo player.

If the limit was 1 personal, 1 FC house per service account then someone with a single service accounts would still only have 2 houses. Because the limit is 1 personal and 1 FC house "owned as buyer" per world per service account, someone with one service accounts is technically able to get up to 9 houses per world and up to 80 houses total. Getting all 80 on a single service account is not likely to happen due to competition for plots on most worlds but we see it's certainly possible when there's no competition.

We can complain about what other players do all we want but as long as they are playing within the rules of the game, they are doing nothing wrong. It's on SE to fix and enforce their rules.


They are doing things. They aren't doing meaningful things that will solve the problems. They only deter those not really committed to housing as content, or who lack the time needed to take advantage of the loopholes.

But then that's what comes from having players insist a lottery will make them happy when a lottery doesn't solve what's actually making them frustrated.

Yeah, I thought a lottery system would prevent hoarders from buying up several houses in a single round due to the 30 days restrictions but somehow the hoarders managed to find a loophole and circumvent the restrictions? This is especially obvious in Materia where a single FC has bought over the entire Ward 2 of Goblet district in all 5 Materia worlds, which should not be allowed in the first place? Unless each single FC is a separate service account?
