    How is this SLIGHTLY more?

    The difference in prices between Non Legacy/Legacy for a small, less desirable area of land is 12 million Gill.

    8 Million for non Legacy, 20 million for Legacy. That's over 100% more expensive than the non Legacy plot. How is that SLIGHTLY more expensive?

    As an aside... since we Legacy were stripped of MOST of our Gil which we managed to save from 1.0 - then assured we would not miss it... well we are now. GIVE IT BACK!

    You're on a server with more gil. They want a gil sink so they adjusted the numbers based on the amount of gil in the world. Sounds right to me.

    White Knight it all you want, YoshiP said the difference in pricing would be slight, he lied. If you can't stand for that to be pointed out, I suggest you leave the forums.

    Don't take Japanese phrasing too literally. That's just how they phrase things.
    That is all there is to it.

    I'm sure the Japanese language has words for "a lot more" or "a significant amount".

    A better gil sink is to have the housing at affordable prices. If the prices are too high, no one will buy the houses and the gil circulating in the economy will remain the same.

    It doesn't make sense to me. Why should say my FC be punished when 12 of our 15 players are NEW players while only 3 were legacy so we were on a Legacy server? If we had been on a non-legacy server and re-rolled we might have had enough for the first class small home. But nope, on Legacy thats a HUGE jump.

    And just because there is more money out there, doesn't mean it moves. Its like how the market is in real life, banks sit on hundreds of billions of dollars but it doesn't move around at all. End game rich players have no need to spend gil on petty lower things on the AH. If these people all have lvl 50 classes and can just farm say their DL and have no need for lower level gear, then that gear wont sell well.

    They understate things as a matter of form.
    Clarity is not a priority in their phrasing as it is in English.

    I'm not even here to defend the choice or anything. The idea is that he lied when what he said is quite normal when used in Japanese.
    A little can mean a lot, but in less blunt terms.

    If they want a gil sink, allow players to buy the whole housing instance for a stupidly high price, say 625m gil and let the rest of us, humble players, buy one piece of land for a reasonable price!!! Large rich FC will gladly buy the whole thing for the glory even if it cost an arm. there you go, a targeted gil sink!
