It appears Japanese players are in agreement.

Thanks to Google Translate...

Translation of title: The price of land is too high

Translation of OP: Well it's probably not gonna change anything but I still can't help it so I'm gonna provide feedback on this.

After looking at the patch note, I was surprised at how extremely highly priced legacy server plots are.
Even M size fifth class plots start at 0.15 billion gil...even after 3 months it's still 80 million gil...

Yes there are probably people with that much money, but aren't they just a very small portion of the population?
And it'll belong to an FC, so I also think it's not exactly right to have one person pay all that...

I don't know how much gil the system calculated to exist on the server after the patch, but isn't this price a little too high?

If you say real life land costs about that much, well I think that's got nothing to do with Eorzea.
This is very sad. I was hoping we could enjoy it more leisurely. </translation>

Remember, that's Google Translate, I'd love for someone with actual knowledge of Japanese to translate it. Thanks, Zfz!

Either way: 657 likes so far. Let's add some weight from the non-Japanese speaking world to the group that are likely to be listened to first! 'Like' that first post of theirs!

I'm...rather surprised at how cutting some of those remarks are, relatively speaking.

Thanks for this. I'm glad to see that the entire community is united in outrage over this.

[Cyrus-Wallace]

Yeah, I like the game so far, but those prices are unreal. I'm glad the JAP playerbase agrees with this, so we have better chances to get this modified soon.

Jesus, a lot more Japanese players must read the forums. 600+ likes in a day is more than 6 times the amount of likes a popular post gets on the English forums.

We spread our likes across 50 threads with the same topic.

It because they are actually discussing in the same thread while EN forums have 100 threads about the same stuff.

Going through the first 10 or so threads on Japanese forums, the majority are about housing. There's still stragglers.

More NA/EU players read the forums in any given day. Every third NA/EU player, though, feels they have to make a new thread instead of just consolidating their opinions into one common thread.

Maybe we can look forward to yet another apology 'letter' from Yoshi, with feigned tears and everything.

They're beginning to become a bit of a quarterly tradition.

The sad thing is, Square will end up winning back quite a few people after everyone rallies behind Yoshi and says that "He understands us! He's a gamer! Unlike every other company he cares about his customers! C'mon guys, let's give it up for Yoshi-P!".

The crocodile tears meant nothing before, and they'll mean nothing this time. I don't want apologies, or tears, or promises.. i want them to actually -do- something; Actions speak far louder than words after all, and unfortunately they've been shouting all the wrong things lately.

I'd say that's more because a lot of threads on the English forums get derailed (which, ironically, i'm contributing to in this post. >.>) or arguments on the issue start, so people think that making a new topic might be better than putting a comment at the end of a thread that won't be read.

Funny thing is people where swearing it was a minority complaining...yeah right

People will always say it's the "minority" if it's something they disagree with; A lot of people attempt to marginalize every argument without even realizing it. :P
