Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Naychan]

Eulmore dance pole. Please.

My whole FC approves 2nd's this!

I was always semi curious how the housing instance technically worked, but it'd be pretty cool to be able to buy a small plot and "upgrade" it to a medium, and further to a Large. I understand the reasoning on why it would be a problem considering the design layout of the wards. But one can dream I suppose.

Eulmorian furniture in general. The Louis palace interior look is unique to the game and far more interesting than the Crystarium stuff we have received so far.

With their tendencies to reuse assets from everywhere, I wouldn't be surprised if those are included in the upcoming master recipe books.

Now that we can use all exterior features in all wards, can we get more?
Like fences, windows, roofs, etc?

Can we have the option to place our retainers inside our houses/apartments? We have the ability to place them outside in the yard, but I'd like to be able to place them inside too.

Can we get either an adjustment to, or a variant of, the Display Stand? I'd absolutely love if these could be handled the same way as picture frames, just for displaying Minions instead of paintings. Since I imagine it perhaps needs a consumable to function, much like the picture frames, perhaps give the Joyous Painter a friend who makes Minion models? That would allow us to convert obtained Minions into a consumable to display on such an item.

If I'm not mistaken they said they had something in the works for us regarding minions and having them around yesterday during the live letter.

I think it'll be for a different content piece. Although might I suggest a playpen area, that's something they could put into housing where the minion(s) have a specific space they can play in and so they don't just wander around aimlessly. Also that new housing pool item from the summer seasonal could be another suitable minion pen I think (have them floating about inside the pool space).

Q62:
I'd like to be allow my minions to roam around my house, like they do in the Gold Saucer's Minion Square.

A62:
I’ve mentioned this before, but for minions to walk around the house, they would need to avoid other objects, which doesn’t seem like something we can do with the current housing system. It’ll take some time before we can announce it, but we’re planning a sort of “farm” for them, so please look forward to it.

Yeah I think a good compromise is to say have a minion furnishing and choose to display a minion of your choice. For instance, a dog house which a dog minion or beast minion will animate popping out of every so often. Bird cage for flaying minions, cat tree for felines. They don't have to roam around per se I just want to feel like they're part of my home.
