WHAT?! 625 Million for first class House?

[Ecks007]

I just read this... and holy hell. What in the hell? A large house for Diabolos is 100-125 Million gil????? Are you freaking kidding me??? How rich do they think we are? Sure I suppose there may be a few FC's that can manage that, maybe even a good handful or two at most. (though I'm thinking there's maybe 5 prominent FC's that can handle that money and that's about it) Holy freaking cow.. All I can say is that I hope personal houses are far cheaper because there's no freaking way I am ever going to get that much gil without devoting years and years to accumulating the gil needed.

And damn do I feel bad for the servers that got it even worse that we did. So.. yeah. Guess I won't be seeing a house for a while.

my servers prices are god awful our fc was raising money for one thinking it would be around a mil or so but yea we were off by 100x

I've already put aside my riches (a modest 300 million gil) for next week's housing.

Good job.
Seeing as you're 1.0 player.
You got another good 2-3 years to make a big house.

I also wanna point out that this won't be there for too long ( 625 mil that is)

The price will change dramatically I can safely ensure you. Just don't buy a house for 1 month it should be reasonable then.

In one months time most of the population won't play anymore because of this.

Bu...but we should be able to buy a house now!

Never mind the fact that, if people could just buy a house instantly, content the developers have spent a staggering amount of time on (go check how many fences, walls, windows, roofs, furniture, etc. there are) would be blown through in a couple of weeks.

You're right though, they'll probably be changing it pretty soon because, shock horror, 2.1 is adding a whole new avenue to the games economy! Anyone who actually read the patch notice and saw how many Housing related materials (quite literally bricks and mortar) there are should be aware of that. How will individual servers price these materials? They don't know yet, they can't know yet, so what do they do? Overprice Housing. People with ridiculous amounts of Gil from 1.0 finally blow through it, everyone and their grandmother doesn't blow through the content instantly, and when the economies for these new materials settle, they can take a step back and reevaluate the cost based on that.

Overprice housing and then lower it weeks later, so that people have already been bankrupted trying to just get a smaller house (which they can't then sell back for the gil they spent), and so that people will have spent however much time being bored out of their minds (and getting annoyed at the game) grinding/farming so they can scrimp together enough for the house? After the economy has been further screwed up by everyone trying to sell everything at once? And making it very difficult for people who actually use the things like apkallu eggs to get their hands on them, due to people trying to farm the crap out of them just for extra gil...?

Yeah, that's a *great* idea.

If people stop playing based on the Housing alone, This "Forum" community has more major problems then I thought originally. I agree that housing prices is outragous, I don't agree on people leaving based ONLY on housing. ( They can leave that's there right, but I feel it is a bit silly.)

The white knights and Lcy players are killing me....

[Syamic]

A lot of people only stayed around for the release of 2.1 to see exactly what extra content and the FC housing is going to be like.

This has just made there mind's up to leave now well it has for me.
