new to the game with a few questions

Thank you! I'm a bit disappointed about the low pvp activity. And housing seems unreachable at those prices but it's good to hear about glamoring!

Yeah. There's not really incentive for anyone to do PvP right now. Wolves Den was thrown aside in favor of Frontlines, then Frontlines was thrown aside in favor of...well...basically anything else there is to do. I'm not 100% sure why. I just assume it's because of Grand Company restrictions (You can't queue with friends from other grand companies; it's GC vs GC vs GC) keeping people from playing with their friends, or maybe they just got bored of it. I thought it was fun, though. :\

Maybe the expantion will breath some new life into pvp. We can hope I'm a big pvp player and it seems like this game would be super fun for pvp so I hope I get to experience it.

FFXIV is one of the best MMOs out there in every respect except PVP. The game is more PVE focused. However, the game is still young and over time they will continue adding to PVP, including a new PVP map in Heavensward. PVP use to be insanely active after Frontlines was released, but over time died down.
