Elitist Housing Must Go. Every Single Player Should Have A House.

[Seraphor]

There is a medium with 30 bids and a medium with 0. People need to stop being so picky.

But if it doesn't have a nice view it's not really a viable option. SE just need to make it so I can get anything I want.

Different people have different tastes. Chances are most (if not all of those bids) are from players trying to relocate and clearly one of those locations is more desirable than the others.

If you're after a medium yourself, you could always follow your own advice and bid on the one that no one else is bidding on.

I have been trying to get a house since stormblood. Missing a few weeks due to sickness or breaks/vacation I have tried to bid on a house every week. I have yet to win a house. Before it was people using autohotkeys to use a script to repeatedly bid on plots, and now its just plots with 50+ bids on them.

This has been the sole reason of why I have taken unsubbed breaks from the game over the years. You might say that is stupid and maybe petty, but its a feature in the game that is advertised. Not to mention all of the outdoor furnishings we get from events every year, none I have been able to use.

Seriously SE needs to fix this.

There is no reason you should have to feel the pain of losing over and over again and being excluded from a major piece of content.

I want you to have a house!

Our housing lottery period just started and every single house has multiple bids on it within the first couple days.

0 Larges available

16 Mediums with 15 bids min and 69 bids highest currently

Multiple bids on all smalls

Can't wait to see how many bids are on every property by the end of the lottery period!!

Seriously things are not looking good here...

When you say you've been trying to get a house... do you mean you've been trying to get a specific house?

Because there's tons of Smalls with 0 bids week after week.

I've had three different houses since I started in Stormblood. None of them were difficult to get. Two lucky active placards with no one clicking, and one lottery win. All Smalls of course.

I know a lot of people love having neighbours and stuff, but I personally don't care at all about that. why? I have friends who I play with and that's my main focus. I'd be happy to have a house that I can invite them to. that's enough for me. In eso I owned several instanced houses including the Kvatch Sanctuary for Darkbrotherhood which served as my guild-hall. I preferred the instanced housing because I didn't need to compete against others to secure one. I hope square enix embraces the future and transitions into instanced housing.

During stormblood I walked up to my mist 17 small plot, a decent upper B-tier small, and just bought it straight from placard, no wait. At the time tons of goblet plots. That was on Hyperion, on exodus more so.

You can make valid points on lottery without being disingenuous on when the difficulty of obtaining a plot began.

Aren't there hundreds of personal houses available on Kujata?

I mean yes actually. Instanced housing would literally solve all of these issues permanently, yet we still see people want to keep the joke system we have right now

Except it wouldnt, not with ward housing existing at the same time, people would still want ward housing, a huge percentage at least, it would change nothing
