Personal housing time limit?

[IzumiLuna]

Hey, I was just wondering if I don't log in after a certain time will I lose my house?

I've been trying to find an official statement on this, but no luck.

[SecretCrowds]

No. There was a plan but it got postponed indefinitely after some feedback.

No. There was a plan but it got postponed indefinitely after some feedback.

Oh, thanks a lot. That's really good to hear.

[Sove92]

Yeah and now we are stuck with a situation where there isn't enough space left when people who have quit or are on a long break get to keep their houses.

Oh, thanks a lot. That's really good to hear.

I'd be cautious about relying on this, though. As Sove mentioned, lack of available housing is a tremendous problem on some servers, and players are making a lot of justified noise about it. If SE does not subtantially increase the amount of available housing, they'll need to come up with some other way to satisfy players - and that could mean that they go ahead and implement the timer system to free up housing owned by players who aren't playing anymore. Such a timer could also easily affect players who take a long break from the game.

No it's not. If you quit you shouldn't get to keep your house. That just takes a space up that another PAYING player could use.

Housing situation in game really sucks , but i glad that SE didnt add time limits for housing . Sometimes i have to work 2~3 months w/o PC and access to game , and it will be too bad if once i back from work and my house gone ;(

Time limits should exist but be 6 months. If you don't pay for 6 months then you lose your house. It would be the best system.

I kind of wish they did something similar to what ArcheAge did with their farms. You pay a (weekly?) tax after you purchase it, and if you miss x-amount of payments, then that plot is up for grabs.

I really hate comparing other games with FFXIV, but this was the best example I could come up with.

Especially since theres no variety in content, the game pretty much forces you to take 2-3 month long breaks :/
