Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

Love the fact that we can keep plants in flower pots indefinitely now, but the sparkle effect kind of ruins it. Is there any way we could have the sparkle NOT appear on the fully grown plant?

we get an Easel but no paint set and Chilled Red,Spirits Collection with no cups to use unless you use the tea sets which looks dumb at the bar and able to make your npc sit on chair/couch/stools and more kinds of fish to put in tanks

Not enough chairs, tables, couches, clocks, fireplaces, rugs, grand pianos, interior and exterior fixtures, ...

Less tacky, more classy please.

We kinda have that already - classic housing skins for a weapon shop, an armor shop and a restaurant, inspired by classic FFs!

Ew, none of them have the large store-front show windows that I was looking for.

Um, ok. Could you guys like add more kitchen utensils, spices, and cookware to stoves, because some of the stoves look way to bare. And, maybe make it so that the furniture isn't too big for the medium sized races too. Like, why not just use levers instead of oversized door knobs.

I want the benches that the NPCs in Azim Steppe are sitting on for use as outside furniture. And I would also like more animal heads besides the behemoth for putting on the wall.

Apartments really need to have an outdoor patio where you can do gardening and put a few pieces of outdoor furniture. As of right now, it's impossible to do any real gardening (aka crossbreeding) with an apartment and even if you're in a GC you need to have access to the crops and hope that no one else messes with them. Even if we can only get 4 beds it would still be a tremendous help towards allowing the entire player base to access something that has been gated off for years.

It would also be nice if players could buy "suites" in terms of Apartments that are bigger in general.

One of the things that TRULY boggles my mind is the fact that a person who abandons their plot is rewarded with a percentage of their plot purchase price after auto-demo. Why?!? If I can't walk up to my house, demolish it, relinquish the land and get the same reward (as an active subber) why do they get that benefit?

The plot prices are already controlled, right? Then why on earth does the person that relinquishes the land get a percentage of the sale of that plot to the next buyer? I can't see how this would have any other effect than increasing churn/availability in the housing market. Please implement something meaningful here, because I'm tired of losing gil upgrading/moving.

Thanks,

It's designed to remove gil, it's not supposed to be there to profit or get a refund. The 80% back is because the plot was taken back without any say so from the character that purchased it.

It may be silly to hope, but I would love if large houses got another 100 item limit increase indoor.
Some other things I'm hoping for as well would be..
- Indoor training dummys.
- Rugs to hang on the wall like a quilt or such.
- Walls and Pillars that take the current wallpaper. (maybe a marble oasis pillar!)
- More varieties of plants and water features.
- Mayhaps the ability to choose different layouts for the inside like you can for the outside (Cave, allagan, garlean, moogle, etc)
Wallpapers and flooring are nice but it would be enjoyable to have different interiors other than the basic layout.

Suggestions on how to improve Apartments and/or FC Private Chambers:
-Allow people the ability to upgrade their apartment and/or FC private chamber. Like increasing the size, increasing the item limit (s), adding a basement, and/or adding a second floor. Make each upgrade a major money sink, that all adds up to the price of buying a Medium House (or maybe even a mansion).
-Give them an outdoor space, like a balcony.
-IF you don't want to give them an outdoor space, at least give players a way to garden and crossbreed plants indoors. You could even limit it to one-per house/apartment/private chamber.
