And imho (and the opinions of many others) he did lie.

All they did was take FC housing and allow it to be purchased by individuals.

Defend it if you want, but player housing was yet another thing overly hyped and implemented half-arsed, screwing over the players.
I'm not really defending it, I have a non-partial view to what happened. However, I do simply like to relate the facts, however mundane they sound to readers. You can hold it as an opinion that it was implemented half-arsed, but it was always planned to be implemented in that very manner since the start. It was simply not publicized as well as it should have been. Or maybe Yoshi-P didn't think it would receive as much backlash as it did.

What's done has been done, something like personal housing is a very unique situation that will likely never happen again. Speaking from the mindset of a programmer, the next time Yoshi-P has a high chance of dropping the ball again should be when they attempt to expand general character inventory.

We players do most of the hyping for the game, be it spurred on by the team or not. It's just something that happens. At least with personal housing, it becomes a game of patience, since the problem that needs to be solved can only be corrected by beefing up their servers or meticulously adding more and more wards with each successive patch to meet demand.
