Yoshi mislead us :(

[Luso]

I have multiple people in my small fc that can afford a large plot at the start. its not hard to make gil in this game mainly because this is the first big thing to spend it on.

This is true. I know some players that can each buy large lots on their own. There is a reason why prices are so high and it literally says it in the patch notes.

I feel like if some of the players on these forums should spend less time complaining and more time in the game they might be able to make some more gil.

Each server has its own markets up and downs. Spend some time and find what you can do to make some gil on your server.

We would pay 4-8m for a small house.

We are not paying 40m for one.

i don't want to pay for a car. you know what? that's why i don't own one.

Yoshi also said that we will have more ways to make money in 2.1. I'd say we need a couple weeks with dailies/roulette and the added gil from dungeon kills to get a better feel for how mad we should be getting about FC house prices.

Oh the hypocrisy! You want to talk about chilling out over things that don't effect you? How about critical forum posts?

You dare patronize to us about complaining about trivial things? Unlike your issue, the prices actually effect us. Your complaint? That critics are bruising your fragile ego, by "attacking" a game company that makes a product you enjoy.

The insane thing is, that this problem will prevent you from enjoying the content too, but chances are you're either too apathetic to the content, or you're too concerned with appearing supportive to the company, out of misplaced affection.

So you sit here and wage a pointless war against other players, even it goes against your best interest. It boggles the mind how counterproductive people like you are to communities. You want to know why developers don't post on forums? Because they don't have to. They have people like you to defend them unconditionally.

Remember when 2.0 was scheduled for January 2013? Remember the original 2.0 screenshot with the Chimera? Remember how the first ARR screenshots showed 1.23's battle system? Remember when Crystal Tower was scheduled for launch? Remember how the new engine was supposed to fix most if not all of the lag issues?

It's not the first time something like this has happened, I get plans change all the time but fool me once, etc. It's hard to trust Yoshi-P when things like this keep happening.

This. It is time for people to wake up and start to realize that he isn't quite the ambassador for gamers that just want a fun final fantasy MMO that he originally advertised himself to be. With constant lockouts on all the content making this game a 1 day a week thing, the servers still being terribly optimized, our gil being reduced by 9/10 with the promise the markets would even out and it wouldn't effect us(decent food is still 2k a piece on my server), and now the housing prices which make the gil reduction even more detrimental, plus a plethora of other bad decisions it makes you wonder where yoshi is really going with the game. It is still passable, but if there isn't something huge in 2.2 then I foresee many people jumping ship. What was once considered to be a highly successful relaunch compared to 1.0 standards may end up becoming a floundering game if they keep using design policies that are more anti player than anything. I remember in 1.0 I was excited about what every patch ended up bringing to the table because it some how improved the game, most of the improvements were fairly substantial, but here we have virtually no improvements and some fodder content that is more or less dead on arrival to people to anyone that can even clear turn 1-4 of coil every week.

i don't get you people, u complain about the game being easy and now one thing that will not be easy of getting you still complain, suck it up. i mean i got 3 relics in a month it is easy , finally something hard to obtain,, finally

Housing is a great money sink for the legacy or hardcore players which will only benefit everyone else in the long run given the implications on inflations.

I agree with you. Its not as easy to make gil as it was at relaunch but I still managed to pull in a good 10mil this month. I am glad the plots are 312mil and slowly drop down over time makes something hard to get, provides some status among fc's and players and gives a reason to use gil. this will hopefully allow for prices of current items to remain stable and or incrase a bit as ppl hopefully will want to obtain as much gil as they can for items and not undercut by hundreds of K on certain items. Anyone who says making money is hard isn't doing what they need to in order to make gil imo. So stop whining and being lazy get off your backside and make some money.

Time invested does not equal difficulty, its just time invested. It will not be hard to get a free company house, but the way they are priced on anything but the cheapest servers will soak up more time than pretty much anything I have seen in any other MMO.

Ever heard of "PR marketing" , "lure more customers" ? Real life didn't gave you any hints already?
Also like someone pointed out yes, 3 players may buy house and furniture. Not the plot for sure lol

so who want to play real life in a video game?
