No, they're going to look even worse than Rift is to us now due to the quicker advance visuals in games, and the lack of incredibly dated hardware support. Rift's system allows any single character to own 20 dimensions, that's 20 fully custom housing areas to do with what you wish. 2 of them are free IIRC, and the other 18 are paid for through the store, or through in game gold. This is perfectly acceptable for a game without a subscription fee. The point is, FFXIV's housing system is not only incredibly lackluster, but also lacks availability. They should have invested far more time into it, especially if they're going to keep updated it while those issues remain.
