Housing..

[DannyNobuser]

the housing is now a bit more reasonable I don't see a large issue save your monies and buy a house

[TeraRamis]

The price of housing is absurd, and the crafting and harvesting system in this game is outrageously bad. I used to farm and craft all the time in World of Warcraft and LotRO, but it's so heinous in FFXIV it's almost beyond belief. And that's not even mentioning the fact that many people lose a lot of money on their professions rather than making any.

I'm not saying everyone should have a house... but it shouldn't be some nigh-unattainable novelty, either.

Once again putting words into my mouth. *Sigh*

I said "or cut down on it". So yeah, instead of people using all their alts to buy lots, they could only use one character. And I'm not comparing dick sizes. I have no clue where you randomly pulled that out of.

Quoting myself:



I personally don't care if someone buys almost every plot of land.

If you don't care if "someone buys almost every plot of land", then why bother with asking for a limit to one house per account?

O.K. Let me recap.

SE said that they put the house price high because they don't want the same people to buy all the plots.

If they instead limited one house per account, they may not need to put the prices so high. Yes, people could still give their second, third, fourth, etc in command gil to buy plots, but they wouldn't be able to make a bunch of alts on top of that to buy more.

OOOOOOOOOOO:

That is why I suggested it.

I suggested an idea that might get the house price down, only to be randomly told that I am measuring dicks. XD lol

Also - to add onto the conversation - just because plots of land cannot be resold now, doesn't mean they never will.

Housing in Behemoth server is almost non-existent.. 3 large houses total in the whole server if we merged all 3 housing zones we would not be able to fill one zone.

It's not like you just create an alt and buy a house. The founder needs to at least have done the dungeons and story to join a GC and get to Lv 25. Then of course find 3 others, found the FC, and then get it to rank 6. Plus raise millions of gil. After all that, I say they have earned the house.

SE also said the housing servers weren't ready to support lots of houses at first, so the high prices were also to keep the total numbers low, regardless of who might buy them.

People can also buy already formed, seasoned guilds that are dying from other players.

That makes sense, but I think they went a little overboard at first. Last time I looked there were only five or so houses. Of course, that is just my opinion. I have no clue if the servers are already having trouble with just those.

A little off topic but which leves are you running? Are they combat or crafting leves? Thanks

Culinarian. Level 40 Apple Juice leve in Limsa (Made by Apple in Coerthas). It takes such little amount of effort its ridiculous. One ingredient. Apples!! Gather them at level 41 botanist. So easy to HQ also.
