Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

Make it so tenants can make a private chamber in a personal home? I think it would be pretty cool.

That would be fun to have. Perhaps as a safety net they could let you purchase an "apartment" when those are released and then tether that to estates you have tenant/FC access to. If something happens to the FC or the house you're a tenant of, your room is just unhooked from the estate, still accessible from the mansion/apartment building thing and there's no loss of 300k gil or obliterated on removal furniture.

I'd also like the door to the private rooms to be moveable.

Is there an option to allow visitors to Private chambers without allowing them to move (and thus steal) furniture?

[Solarra]

Yes, but it's not an option. If your room is open nobody can interact with the furniture except you.
We discovered this when one of our FC officers decided to turn his room into a bar/bistro for the FC, we could all enter but we couldn't move furniture, interact with the npc barman or eat the food.

A housing-related comment from Hino.

Hino: No one comes to my house. I would really like something similar to the Animal Crossing series where if someone visits my place, they can obtain special fruits, or something like that.

Yoshida: Adding something like that would have to be balanced. If there's too much motivation to do this, people will feel they need that they must take part. If there's not enough motivation, then it could end up feeling a bit weak.

This got me thinking... Can we have gates for our houses? No no, not gates, GATEs...

OK, maybe not something on that level... But lets say there is a piece of furniture from the Gold Saucer, you can place it in your home... Provided you've set it so people can visit, there is a chance that piece of furniture will spawn something, perhaps one per Ward/Subdivision, that when found will reward the player with MGP and spawn somewhere else... Sort of like the Magic Pot that you trade an Elixer to to get the Sun minion, except randomly spawning in peoples houses rather than a fixed location...

MGP seems like the perfect "not too serious" reward to generate interest in housing wards...

Can we get an indoor version of the market board. There's nothing better then staying within reach of the Indoor material seller, retainer bell and the Market board all in the comforts of inside.

Can we get a Hedge Wall outdoor furnishing? One thing I've always wanted to do with my FC yard is make meandering garden paths, but I'm just not able to do that with the current furnishings. The Lattice Planter is nice, but it's not nearly long enough! Please add some long walls for yards!

[WandererSabaku]

I'd absolutely love it if I could rotate my house. I just want my mansion to face the gate/entrance of the yard, not the side!

[Amarante]

Forgot if I asked for this, but I was thinking it today.

Bring back Scary stuffed Moogle! And more stiched up Stuffed friends. This can be craft able or a Halloween event items. What do you think?!

[Lissandra]

To tack on to Amarante's post, can we get plushies of the moogles from Thornmarch? The King included, yes please.

its my hopes that they'll make it so that if you have to go inactive for a long time for whatever reason(s) that your tenants will be able to negate the property reclaim situation.
