Why is housing even being released

If this was XI, people wouldn't bat an eyelash at content released that is not immediately attainable and requires a virtual life's work. Relics? Mythics?

In Gimme Entitlement Reborn, SE can't release anything that takes time and work and community building and any of the virtues they hope to instill in the player base that are lacking in its instant grat channel surfing low attention span twitterati gimme the escalade now daddy existence.

your wrong about relics you had instant access once you hit rank 6, bought the clock item then got the base weapon from a drop after that it was just getting the old currency and dynamis only locks you out 3 days. never having to spend one cent it was nothing but content spaming.

FFXIV is BS because it wants insane gil prices. its making one week lockouts from content. no way can you sit there and say FFXIV's systems are ok.
mythics were even easier & faster to get, then mog trial weapons cost nothing but you doing trials which was content not a gil sink.

FFXI 72 hour poped NM's vs ffxiv 168 hour content lockouts
