Are the Islands better than owning a house?

[Mimilu]

Yes but if you didn't have an island you wouldn't even have a bed to get rained on

If you enjoy getting water tortured in bed, sure. （*´▽｀*）

Hey now, don't shame.

Nearly, but not quite. With a house you can use the housing gardening system and chocobo stable to train your chocobo.

Though if you get an apartment, then only thing you're missing out that a person with a house has, is the gardening system. With island you'll now actually be able to use those outdoor furnishings all of the seasonal events reward.

I'd actually argue that the island is better for outdoor decorating than even a large plot.

I would never. If Sagacious wants to partake of these watery pleasures, I encourage it! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°
