The Housing problem and my proposed solution

[Sandpark]

@ Preypacer
The graphics do look bland on those videos and the building look very basic with not much details. Ok let's say those do housing itself better than FFXIV according to you.

The bigger question is:
What purpose do those houses serve besides decorating?
Is there any content that can only be done from those houses like Skycastles or FFXIV guild airships?
Can large groups of people hang out in the same area or do they have to zone into different instances?

Because Free Company houses are not just for decorating, crafting and hanging out. There is more content coming after island exploration for Free Company guilds to do I assure you. Content tied to the free company houses. One example is multiplayer crafting things such as cakes and sailboats, etc.

Let's look at some other possibilities for guild based content for Free Companies shall we?

-Airship Guild Vs Guild(Battle Airships designed and controlled by FC possibility)
-Submarine exploration(Designed and controlled by FC)
-Lunar expeditions(Spaceship designed and controlled by FC)
-Magitek Armor crafting( Designed and controlled by FC for guild vs guild wars)
-Magitek Battle/Racing circuits(Designed and controller by FC, Nascar type race teams(FC teams), think pod racing in Star Wars), with rankings, rewards, achievements,etc.


So people without guilds are not locked out of that playstyle of content, they can have queues for smaller scale stuff in DF, And personal smaller designs of things in crafting.
