You guys - how is it handled in other games? I've only played XI. Surely someone has an idea how this would work - I'm pretty clueless. Yoshi does seem to borrow from other games so knowing this might help.

I've heard in WildStar that your house is it's own instance and that you teleport to it. You can add people to your "neighbor" list so you can visit them. But it's not wards like we know as our Free Co. housing.

I do think when they say "the issue of how many plots to add" is referring to FC housing/wards.

I really wish that a Rep would pop in and just say it will be accessible to everyone (gil dependent) and that it cannot "sell out". We don't have to have every detail, but to know that would save everyone a lot of stress and sleep on patch-eve, especially those who cannot be around at log in time to do anything about it anyway.
