I agree with Preypacer. I played EQ2 as well, and I had fun decorating my house, and also my guild hall. For this to be possible, the user interface has to be very robust, very responsive, and not clunky like now. Right now it's hard to even target a monster. This is my first wish when they implement house-decorating, that we can buy and sell items quickly, every clickable action instantly responsive. I doubt FFXIV will have as complex of housing system as EQ2; we all could hope for it. I'm thinking it might be more of FFXI style moghouses where you can put a bed, or hang a wallpaper, but not like EQ2 where you can make bowling alleys or kitchen counters using coffins, and aquarium using watery mirror between coffins to create illusion of glass, etc.
