I couldnt be more excited for player housing ^^, in FFXI my house was a place to regroup and enjoy my decor not to mention it was my home for 7 yrs of ffxi and I miss it terribly. with the incredible graphics of ffxiv i forsee spending a ton of time in my home decorating and crafting when they become available ^^. I wonder how many of the people who say "they could care less if we get them" or "they arnt needed", played ffxi. It might be easier for those of us who spent years enjoying our houses in ffxi to understand why they will be such a wonderful asset when they become available. ^^
