Why exclude people from Chocobo raising?

[Waeksyn]

Maybe the reference to "garden" really means you need a garden and not just a yard. Perhaps it requires growing specific (exclusive) choco food items? Having the two activities inter-relate wouldn't be so bad.

I only hope that they will eventually do the chocobreeding and gardening on the personal houses and that you can get a decent sized house, not the one room mog house from FFXI. It sounds like the furnishings and such wont affect you at all either, thats a bit disappointing. Still can't wait for all these systems to get flushed out!

They said that the FC rooms would be a little bigger than the FFXI Mog House. So I would hope the personal houses would be somewhere around the FC ones LOL.

They say the FC rooms would be the size of the first floor from a small house.
No info about personal house size. I still think that we can also buy the 3 sizes S, M and L for personal houses with enough gil.

It's just better for the game that way. Incentive to join FC, incentive to get house, incentive get money, incentive to level crafting class, incentive to play the game more.

Disagree... looking forward to meld my Novus, i won´t be able to afford that ^^ same to all FC members, which where i am one of the ppl with more money...

we even have one who is so broke he regularly has no gil for teleport xD

I don't understand how people are lacking money in this game. You can literally (yes I'm using this word correctly) make 30,000 gil a day JUST from duty roulette and dailies. If you're a player who can't scrape together money for teleports and repairs, much less a house, you're either fantastically lazy, grossly ignorant, or both.

To those of you that answered my question intelligently, I thank you

So many of you jumped on this as some sort of 'OMG I can't get everything right now or OMG I want everything as a solo player' post, neither of which is the case.

The majority of my time is spent in group activities because that's where the fun is. I won't join an FC just to get a house because FC's are more important than that. A good FC is about having fun with a group of people you respect and are on the same wavelength as you, until I find that FC I guess I'll just have to miss out, though I still don't see why it has to be tied to FC housing?

To those of you giving advice on how to make money and set up your own FC, thank you I know it isn't unreasonable, I already have 1.5 mil, I have all crafting classes maxed, I can make the rest , I guess I'd rather just find that elusive FC I can call home with a home


I just really can't see why it has to be tied to housing, really don't. I appreciate there are those who see this as something rightfully theres because they worked for it as an FC, but as this thread has pointed out again and again, a solo player can make that kind of money and get an FC house. On Odin there is plenty of space with some plots under the 2 mil mark, I could have one next week but seriously I don't want an FC for a house I want an FC for the FC.

I can't find it in me to agree with SE's choice to tie it to FC's. Soz.

I actually like how its tied to housing. I think it should only be to the personal housing though and not to the FC. I also think it would be better if there was a new DoH or DoL job to come with each the chocobreeding (Beastmaster) and the Gardening (Farmer) that would make it more than just a quick side thing.

The thing to remember is this is just the foundation of the systems they are putting in place. They will be flushed out and expanded upon as the game grows. Offer advise and input but there is no need to think that this is all we will get and it will never expand beyond what we are speculating before the system is even released.

You are already excluding yourself form all the benefits of being part of a FC. So this is just another benefit.

I'd like to offer a reason to all those suggesting 'why not buy a small house they are only X amount?'
Well, I personally think its a bit cheeky calling them a house, they're barely an office. A more appropriate term would be 'shed'
I don't even consider them big enough for personal housing let alone for an FC, even a small one. I certainly wouldn't part with 2m gil for one.
