Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

I see this;

And think of the original crafting system in 1.0, where you'd craft the parts then use them to craft the gear (similar to the i70 weapons, but more than 1 part) and that leaves me wanting the ability to craft unique gear.

Have a selection of different parts for each piece of gear, similar to 1.0, and let us combine them in various ways to create something "unique" to act as a sort of uniform for your Free Company. For example;

You have a body piece, you pick what the main body is (light/medium/heavy), then pick something to customize the design (plate/chainmail/etc?), add sleeves from a selection, shoulder armor, coattails? Cape? Perhaps ornate parts to decorate it? Could do a lot with it, mostly for body gear but still a few options for helm/hands/legs/feet. You'd just craft the parts regularly, then put them together in the not-Aetherial Wheel thing to preview and craft the final gear.

Honestly, if crafted gear is only ever really going to amount to vanity pieces come endgame, you could at least go all out and make gear crafting a modular thing to give us full customization over it with that fancy basement crafting station. Designing and creating a Free Company Uniform seems like the next logical step between making a house and airship construction.

1. all houses on the same size lot. I personally want a mansion lot with a small house, or even a market shack.
2. Trees with usable hammocks.
3. interactive world map table. This would be great for FCs too.
4. Personal figurines for the world map table if the above isn't possible.
5. Movie viewer or tv like the "Unending Journal" but allow them to play interrupted. Would be able to share videos with our friends (or my kids) when online.

Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this, but how about the ability to set your retainer to a specified action. Something such as tending to your garden or chocobo stable or maybe even the ability to sit down or interact with the Striking Dummy. It makes them look a bit more lively and not just a simple garden gnome. I know it's a bit far-fetched and could cause some issues with server loading and what not, but would be nice if it's something that could come somewhere in the long run.

Also how about the ability to let other people see your retainer's name.

Would it be possible to give the Serpent/Storm/Flame Armoire furniture the utility of effectively being a Grand Company Quartermaster? So we can use them to exchange Company Seals for whatever, maybe turn in items for Seals too?

Allied Seals might be pushing it, but I'd love to have a Hunt Board in house... For that matter... Why don't we have the Company Actions NPC in house? That would be really useful.

Also, way too late for this, but please please please make the Triple Triad board as a table top furniture. I already set up a little games area in my FC Estate for Triple Triad, would love to put those boards down there. Also hope you can sit down while playing (all screenshots so far are standing...).

I would like to request a smaller fountain. Not that I do not like the ones we have but a small and large stone fountain for the yard as well as a small fountain for inside the residence would be nice. Also although reaching too far a small intentior exterior aqueduct piece (two separate pieces to set the illusion of have running water from inside the house to out) would also be cool ala greco roman / taj mahal since a palazo type house is not possible.

I would just like to have a house. We have the Gil. Balmung doesn't have a single plot left of any size in any ward.
