bout the housing, the trouble is more about what they can or can't do. they have try to please a part of the community saying that they don't want intanced stuff. but at the end the residential ward are extremely heavy on them server.what trouble me is when i read yoshida say that upgrade the server for better one will be the last option they will use...
we are into a mmorpg, where the server is more important than anything and they think it's better to use the maximum of the server and push it into him limit before upgrade it. i dunno any mmorpg that did that, it's dangerous on too many way. since they have trouble of place on the server the game did encounter numerous limitation. instead to give the dev team more freedom for them creation he think it's better to not change the server that was already not strong enough for the actual popultion.

we all know that Yoshida himself did admit right after the release last years that they didn't expect the succes of the game. right now the game is on the verge to loose people because they don't want to accept to get the tool strong enough for the actual population of the game. worst they continue to release content that are not adapted at the population per server (hunt/housing). i will not talk of them choice for the raid difficulty or some of the really really bad choice about the progression in the game.

i think yoshida and it team need to stop to look to the number of them statistic but the reality. they need a Public Test Server for understand how work the player from all the world, not only japanese! if they don't want to understand us, why release the game in the whole world? i can understand that they want to please the japanese public but it's time to please the rest of the world.

ps: we only get one new dungeon per patch, but we have too 2 hm version that are different of the normal version
