Dilapidated Houses

[Valleo]

This would have been a good idea if houses didn't cost texa$ to buy in the first place, and might have been a nice alternative to the big up front cost.

The way the system is set up now, it doesn't make much sense to suck even more gil away from players.

Good point guys, how about a option to see a dilapidated house, and you can pay to make it look different? Is that a better option?

But I see all of your points. I also realize that there is already many many options to make your house stand out. This would simply be another one, maybe something that is crafted? i.e. crafted spider-webs and such?

Would also be very useful for Holloween and such?

If you are looking for immersion, you can come over to my house and cosplay a BLM while mowing my lawn.

There's a game called Animal Crossing that lets you upkeep your town and it turns to crap if you don't maintain it often. Go try that.

the only novus that doesn't cost a min of 6 mil is a whm's; every dps will be using criticla hit, thats 300k for stage 2, 600k for stage3 and 3mil + for stage 4 assuming 0 brakes. so for crit alone, with 1 fail stage 3 +, thats 4mil gil. add in determination if your a job that uses that and your at 9+ mil. you can buy a small fc house for the cost of a novus, why would players wan't to spend their gil repair someone else house for them, when that player is to lazy to upkeep their house? what benefit would it have outside of helping the lazy?

FYI - I read from healers' forum, most WHM prefer crit as well ^^;

This is about as funny as stapling your eyelids open. If you’re trying to crack a joke, then stop.

Please.

The very idea of stimulating an economy is to inject money to promote purchasing goods or services. A gil sink like what the OP is suggesting is something that destroys gil (no player gets it) and is therefore the exact opposite of a form of stimulation.

I support this in a way to show FCs that have not been active. As in no members logging in over months of time. However, I really don't like the idea of living in a run down neighborhood and/or having an eyesore next door.

I have to see Detroit too often in real life, I don't want to see it in game as well. No to this idea.
