Reduce subscription cost to compensate

[Arky]

Also just throwing some logic at you. In game a small plot and house for an FC is about 5m day one with all costs. Please tell me why that exact same house should cost 800k for an individual?

my subscription should cost less because i dont have a high allagan weapon

But you have the ABILITY to get one. I don't have the ability to get a house. They lied to us.

Why don't you? Because.. you don't have 4 mil to spend? Or because you think that all 6 wards will be bought out before you even log in? I'm very, very confused by your posts.

I don't think it's a big deal. It'll get there eventually. I'm surprised it shared it with FC housing. I thought player housing would be instanced, that is, only you can see/have access to it. But we don't work there and there I'm sure there are reasons why they make the decisions that they do. If you get little amounts now, people are unhappy. If you have to wait until they get to beef up the servers to accommodate people, people complain for having to wait. Either way it's not a winning situation. Just have patience, this is hardly a crisis of the universe.

How does this hurt "millions" of players. No one is forcing anyone to buy a house if you don't want one and other people buying a house does not hurt you in any way. This is just another complaint about the pricing. If you can't make 2 mil gil at this point, especially if you've been playing for awhile now, then you really don't deserve a house, I mean really.

The assertion that everyone is gonna buy all the houses 3 minutes after maintenance is ridiculous. Though not impossible, if everyone is as poor as you people make them out to be, then most will wait til after the 60 day mark. Even most of the rich people will plan to do this. Not to mention, they already said they were gonna add even more wards in 2.4. I hear that some servers have people with an absolutely ridiculous amount of gil (for reasons I will not go into) but I don't think one player can own more than one personal house so they can't just buy out all the houses.

The only valid complaint here is that since personal housing were introduced so late after FC housing, a lot of people have already devoted too much time into FC when they would had devoted it to personal housing instead. This is the only true big blunder that SE made in regards to housing, one that can probably never be fixed. It truly is a shame. I had always complained that FC and personal housing should been released at the same time but whatever, nothing you can do now.

All I'm going to say is use your heads. You'll get it eventually, if you don't... I'm sorry. But SUBS ARE what will help keep this game alive. If you don't understand the position Square is in at the moment, then you're blissfully ignorant.

A lot of people don't use their heads, 10 minutes through this forum and that becomes obvious. They can only see what's in front of them, and usually what's in front of them is themselves.

Reduce subscription cost for the EU region, EU pays a third more than JP and NA because of the exchange rates...

[Aoxaviar]

I get where your coming from on this one, but I would also point out that SE has no control over the exchange rates based on global economics. However, it also means that your rate would jump month to month due to the exchange rates betting adjusted as the market moves...

Sword, you're repeating yourself a lot.

I mean this in the best possible way as a friend, but try to calm down and take a deep breath. This situation does suck and I hate it too, but this game is supposedly going to have a long life (at least they have said they want it to last 10+ years). Just hope something will happen for the better soon.

Sorry but it doesn't need all of the spins people are putting on it to rationalize it. If the developers straight up lied to everyone, it shouldn't be spun as anything else than what it is. A bold faced lie. I had to spam it to that other person in the other thread because they kept trying to twist in in a very politician-y kind of way, so I had to keep defeating his twisted statements by repeating what was a proven truth, and what isn't open to interpretation.
