Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[MageBlack]

Hey there,

We're pleased to let you know that the dev. team is planning to implement a piece of furniture that will allow you to play Triple Triad.

That's awesome. Are you also increasing the availability of land so people like myself can actually make use of these awesome housing features?

I would just be happy if The flame storage bench didn't lie about the storage it offered.

It'd be nice if we could have more functions in private chambers. Personally I'm not finding a reason to get a chamber if it's just for decorations. If you are in a FC with a house it's most likely that the functions are controlled by a few officers in charge, so most lowly grunts don't have the same luxury.

So here are my suggestions for private chamber functions that each player (in an FC) can also enjoy:

1. Retainer similar to the ones outdoors [1 per chamber]
Has the same function as the ones outside the house (selling your stuff). I really want to have a personal butler or a cute maid tending to my (soon-to-have) room.

2. Personal mini-garden. [1 per chamber]
I'm okay with having just one 4-slotted mini-garden. Just let me grow my own Krakka roots! :'(

3. Mannequins to dress up [1 or 2 per chamber]
I heard a while back that this is a go, but it'd be nice if us lowly grunts who don't have housing rights could also enjoy this feature.

I am thinking if these benefits could also be extended to Personal Housing, though it might be redundant as they already own the whole house.

Part 2:
5. Chose where your cealing light is: Sorry but having that darn thing dead center of the room makes placing walls with out blocking it annoying.
6. Remove default wall pillars: These thing's are annoying. At least let us move or remove them. Because of them you have small spots where you can't put anything flush against the wall. Working around them is also meh.
7. Allow for item scaling (with limits): Maybe I want that rug to be smaller to fit in the space I am using, but don't want my whole room to be consumed by a moogle plushie. Or maybe I want to turn that desk into a mini desk for my plushies to sit at.
8. Change pose for beds: Sorry but some of the sleeping poses for beds just make me go O.o I'd love a change pose for sleeping so you can chose how you're laying. Maybe some 'awake but laying' poses. Plus... truely being laying. Sorry but my kitty with her head propped in her hands and feet in the air... I rather her be curled up.

I bet this has been said before, but some sort of storage would be nice.
Nothing big, just say 2 or 3 slots in barrels or boxes, I'd like to build myself a workshop when the expansion comes and I can finally get a house.
The fact that we spend millions of gil for these houses kinda justifies it in my honest opinion.

It would be nice if my friends could teleport to my house.

I still want personal chambers to private homes. Allow other people to set favorite destinations to private homes. Allow other people access to your home.

Just more storage space available in the houses and access to others who want to get there.

Maybe something like an actual way to turn wardrobes into glamor cases? I'm always running out of storage space and it would be nice to have more besides the inventory. And I'd like to be able to actually store clothes in our armoires/wardrobe items so I don't have to stuff my retainers. I have four and they're nearly always full with stuff because I craft too.

Storage space, glamor book and housing access to friend/eternal bond partners please! Let's have it!

Make it where we can move house without destroying millions worth of high cost items would be nice. If the general cheap stuff binds to player and can be moved why can't the same be done for the expensive stuff? Last time I moved house irl I got to take my rugs, couches, wall hangings etc with me, why do they bind to plot?

I don't want a damn thing added to housing until they first meet the demand on Balmung. You know, the server that sells out within the first few hours of housing release. And I'm not talking about adding 2 more wards, We need around 60 wards added to meet the demand. Also I think it is entirely pointless to have someone pay the SAME cost as a FC house and not get everything you pay for, I'm referring to personal chambers. Otherwise personal housing needs to be cut by a substantial amount when you purchase a house.
