FFXIV FC housing: the equivalent of FFXI relic weapons.

To obtain one the effort of many is pooled into the hands of a few and only those few have access to the rewards.

Sure you can be in a Free Company that owns a house, but unless you're the leader or a higher-ranking member (FC leader privilege pending), you do not get to customize or build any of it yourself even though you likely spend money on it. You can look at it and sit inside.

In FFXI you ran Dynamis with groups of 30-60 people, generally with no prospect to getting the currency to upgrade a relic weapon because the Linkshell leaders had chosen somebody specifically to make one. You spent 5 hours per week with worthless relic armor as a reward. You got to look at your leader's weapon?

Yawn. Personal housing coming when?
