Fix the Housing!!!

[SekanCross]

Just SHUT up oh my GOD. people like you are SO FKING exhausting "privileged" this and "privileged" that. You people claim to be woke by staying "up to date" on drama that isn't even yours and do nothing but try to seem like a moral better.

FFXIV Housing IS a problem EVERYONE knows this, the only people who act like it is not are the ones who believe "this is a fair system" like it is a faith. You have ZERO critical thinking for yourself, a sheep. SE is a greedy pig when it comes to its slave players. Milk everything they can and act like they care. IF that was true why are they making people buy a subscription and limit the material offered? THEN if you own a switch 2 you have to buy a subscription to FFXIV AND a subscription on the Switch 2? why? because Nintendo is charging SE for the servers, and what is SE doing about that? making the gamer (the consumer) pay for its business deal.

World of Warcraft has proven that housing can be made VERY simple.
Getting a house in World of Warcraft: Midnight is designed to be very easy and accessible, costing only ~1,000 gold per plot with no lottery or limited availability. Upon logging in, players receive a quest to start the, which, when completed, allows them to immediately choose and purchase an unoccupied plot in a neighborhood. also, the quest rewards you with 1,000 gold.
SO to break this down
1. Get housing quest, rewards = unlock housing, gives 1,000gold
2. Complete quest.
3. Use completed quest gold to buy a house.

As a person who has a house and a FC house in this game i can tell you right now. the system is not fair it is bullshit gatekeeping. Houses should be account locked, so people with alts can't own 3+ houses. You are mentally ill if you think this system is balanced and fair.

World of Warcraft is likewise milking their players dry... same strategy, so please?

The system is fair. We're all subject to the same rules when purchasing a house. Each of us has the ability to take advantage of the "loopholes" in the system if we're willing to go to that effort to get additional houses.

What the system isn't is good. I suspect that Blizzard is using cloud technology for it's housing system while Square Enix is using standard server hardware. That allows WoW's neighborhoods to expand as needed on demand while Square Enix has to do some major advance planning.

WoW housing is also regionwide, not realm (world) based so they have a hard limit of 2 houses per game account regardless of how many realms a player has characters on. To have more than 2, a player has to have more than 2 accounts. Compare that to here, where I can potentially have 85 personal houses on my account (one per world) and another 440 FC houses assuming I can get that lucky in the lottery on each world.

I'm still not exceptionally impressed with WoW's housing overall but definitely they learned a lot from the complaints that FFXIV players have about housing. It's still got problems - having to level the house primarily through endeavors to increase room and item limits plus variety of rooms but only being able to gain endeavor XP for one of your two houses at a time, having to grind out old reputation/renown currencies to purchase most decor items, a crazy amount of lumber farming needed to craft most of the crafted decor items, some steep gold costs for other decor items, etc. But getting your 2 houses is simple enough and the item placement system is superior. WoW at least addressed those problems that we see here.

Okay, from my purely logical standpoint.Everyone has an equal opportunity to get a house. The thing is equal opportunity does not equal outcome.You can all have the same opportunity and some of you will lose
