    It's been awhile since I played ESO, but if I recall it doesn't have anything akin to wards, but rather each player's distinct house exists in its own instance, right?

    If that's the case, I don't think that's too different than how FF14 has apartments. There's no auto-demolition for those and absolutely everyone can have one. The lone different seems like it would be that apartments don't give you an outside of the house, while if I recall ESO might?

    I also have not played ESO for several years now. Their system is instanced, and you can even see the house locations in world. You could compare them to apartments, but ESO's properties are... just that properties. Some are only the inside, but others are large estates that you can completely decorate inside and out. There are styles for pretty much anything you are looking for. Having something like that in FFXIV would be a dream come true, for housing enthusiasts.

    Keep in mind, they do also sell many decorations in the cash shop (Not that SE doesn't do the same), so there is an additional incentive for them to have given out large estates (that need to be decorated).

    They just put ur house in "private ward".

    The thing is, why devs cant implement hybrid housing system, where ur large, medium or small house is placed in a "virtual" space, which can be accessed only via FC/frend list, or in a special list, while u are online (hello SWTOR).
    But in addition to this u can pay extra to get ur house "published" in a ward, like today's system.
    Aaand when u gone for 3 month, ur house is being moved back to "private" area, instead of being deleted. Instead of fully deleting ur housing progress to absolute zero.
