Housing is the biggest load of crap

[Yuniko]

I remember at the LA Fan Fest when Yoshida said something akin to "...and I've managed to sort out expanded housing item limits for everyone! Who's excited for that?" and the crowd was pretty muted in their response. At that point I kind of said "oh, no - he was excited, the crowd isn't - he's going to see that as housing upgrades not being a priority." And that seems to be how this has played out, to some extent.

It made me wonder, though, how much of that muted audience response was just down to people at the Fan Fest not being able to get houses to begin with, or being angry at the state of the system on their servers.

Yeah, it's BECAUSE housing is far too little in the world for players. I've been trying for many many years now, since housing released. and no chance at all. So im tired... im so tired and fed up man.

I can get that, with you being on Mateus - that's been pretty full for years now, and I can only imagine the bid counts you guys must get on even a small.

When they combined everything into Crystal I know there were quite a few plots on the other servers like Goblin. Are all the wards on all the worlds on Crystal prtety much entirely taken these days?

Oh yeah. It's pretty crazy, i've seen a single medium getting 200+ on mateus. on Balmung i once saw a med get up to 900 tickets.

That's just awful - the biggest I've seen on Siren has been in the 170s, if memory serves.

I remember hearing about a Large that had over 1700 bids, I think it was, on Balmung not long after the lottery system went in. I can only imagine the walk of shame through a horde of angry non-winners the winner had to do after they claimed THAT one.
