Can Square Enix stop killing off old content

I've seen a lot of people who think IS is gonna be something that's forever updated but I'm pretty sure 6.5 will be it's last update if any of the other expac's content is to go by...

I'd be curious to see the participation numbers compared to exploration zones. If SE looks at IS and sees a lot of people engaging with it, I could see them trying to make it a pseudo instanced housing. I'm sure they won't let it be a full housing system, the executives wouldn't want to risk the monthly rental subs, but I can see them giving us more than what is there now. I certainly hope they stick with it, I think it has potential, especially if they're willing to replacing mammets for say PEOPLE. Pretend we're giving jobs to displaced npcs or something, idc!

Sorry, turned into a bit of a IS rant.

There isn't really any reason to add more housing options to IS. Everything can already be replicated within Apartments or FC rooms. IS provides the scope to use outdoor furniture, so now all bases are covered.
At most, they could potentially allow for house models to be used as landmarks, but even that seems a bit ambitious. There's dozens of house models and so far, only 8 landmarks.

I totally disagree. Gardening, interior decorating with the ability to outside, chocobo stables, retainers, etc. I know, I know, FCs and 'real' housing need to have something special, but I have to wonder, if a feature has to be unique to something to make people like that something, in my mind, that something should be changed then. Just my opinion though. I hope SE keeps working on IS, I think it has a lot of potential.
