I can't believe this hasn't happened. SE outside of 14 has a very heavy micro transaction hand. The could increase the number of items from a large and call it premium housing. Or give it some sort of extra item storage like FC chests. And truthfully they know the players or a decent minority will defend it like 30+ mounts. "It's optional" or "They have to pay bills" or "They need to make money"


I saw some data mining that showed housing on the island. So they could have been testing some things but it never panned out. Or islands are like squadrons, something to test a theory but not the end goal.
