What are your thoughts on XIV content creation?

As well appreciated, and Beautifull as it is, There's simply Not enough Utilities for Island Sanctuarys. I have spoken with dozens of other Island owners, and all near beg for their own Personal, decoratable house, Retainer Bells, Mailbox, FC Vault. Myself included.

For me, It is simply another daily chore to get tokens. (two diff crowries silly & confusing) To buy a few Market sellables. None of my friends actually host anything there. With zero amenities, It's simply a Giant postcard to Ooh and Ahh at. "Oh wow! this is beautifull!. but I have to go now, thnx for showing me " Is the usual response when inviting friends over.

Like Gridania, It too Rains Far too often, for too long. (In my Fantasy game, Rain is a rare, unliked event). Glamours are limited to plaza, walkways.. and not the cabin / buildings /land marks themselves. Every players Island a cookie cut postcard. with zero difference, no Utilities.
Private time there nice, but gods forbid you afk and auto-booted hosting a party. Unlike Housing Zones, nobody who isnt a friend/FC member can visit to rate, marvel at your island home. Allowing 15 players there is pointless if nobody wants to go there.

Since there are 100s of Empty FC plots, and No personal plots available in housing zone, why can't we have a home on our Islands?.

We love the Islands. But as we spend Hours and days working on it, we want retainer bells / Vaults etc, to make it far more Worth building, staying / visiting.
