Personal Housing Questions

[Sho86]

I've been thinking the same thing about the delay, considering the silent treatment. My biggest question though aside from friends being able to have permissions is just your account in whole itself, with alternate characters. Since we can't exactly friend ourselves, and so far they've been pretty adamant about no trading (without aid/FC chest) to alts. Might cause another problem if people buy multiple houses for all their characters lol...

Im guessing it'll be similar to FC housing in that if you don't enter within 30 (?) Days you'll lose it.

Exluding amendities like chocobo stable and personal merchants. I think we'll need licenses to build certain things after purchasing the plot.

I expect;

"Personal Housing has been pushed back to 2.4".

Yeah, at this point there's no reasonable explanation why they're keeping us in the dark. I have to wonder if Yoshi-P is keeping quiet because they're not sure if they'll make the patch or not.

I just hope the personal housing isn't complicated or have such huge requirements to getting one. I'd love for everyone to own their own personal home with their own set of rules that they can apply; like which players can enter, which player can feed or garden and such; having the option to open to public or close to the public/all. Also without having some sort of FC rank or any restriction.

I hope it isn't stupidly expensive like over the 5-10 mils, I hope the pricing is reasonable and cheap, and hope the personal housing aspect is creative.

/Sigh

If that happens, I've completely lost interest and I'm out for good.
Though I fully expect it, honestly.

I'm a little disappointed in the lack of information prior to implementation since it is possible these houses will be a lot of money (relative to who you talk to). Since the main reason I want a personal house is more garden space, I want one that'd give me the most (aka large if we even get different sizes) and we don't have a solid idea of the cost.

So I'm saving up as much as I can but that is holding me back in other areas like crafting since I still need to meld and get closer to 3star crafting.

tl;dr- Lack of info is stalling my progress

This. I'm holding off max melds on fisher and a retainer because I haven't had time to SB lately, and I don't wish to spend any money in the mean time. I've also not decortated my private chambers (bought for me as I put pretty much every single bit of gil I had into buying a medium FC house after ward 6 opened up) nor have I been able to do as much with the FC house as I'd have liked because I'm not spending money.
I have done bits and bobs but gathering mats takes time, and working 37hour weeks, coil time, plus stuff outside of the game... I just feel like I've had to hold on to every penny and hope for the best.

As I write this I'm suddenly very aware of how very 1stworldproblems this sounds xD

Seriously though, something would have been nice! Not really happy with the total lack of response on this topic :/

They could go the route that they've been going with a lot of "leisure" content so far.

ie: You can only participate in it if you have a FC with a house.

That's right, no personal house unless your FC owns a house. And the NPC you buy your personal house doesn't want your gil. You must pay in Glazenuts, Jute, and Thav onions.

As it stands, if it's instanced housing we'll just have to acquire one under my character, most like, which would make actually enjoying the benefits of the house rather inconvenient for him.

Not necessarily. Fully instanced housing could still allow you to visit other people's houses, and do anything else there so long as you've been given permissions for it. That's if they set it up that way, of course, which just goes back to the main theme of this thread: Why aren't we hearing how this is set up?

I expect;

"Personal Housing has been pushed back to 2.4".

At this point, that might be the best answer we're likely to get. If it were a good, well planned-out system that SE was proud of, we'd have been hearing a lot more details about how it works. And if it comes down to either a crappy half-thought-out and badly implemented system or waiting a bit longer for a more viable one, I might rather wait. (Of course, that assumes it doesn't turn into waiting and then still getting a crappy half-assed system later. That would suck.)
