When will you really address the housing availability problem?

Or they just do what other MMO's did with housing (instanced). Every player can have a house. There, solved. Wildstar does it fairly well (you can visit other houses, etc..etc..) I think Rift does something like that as well. Even Garrisons, as bad as they were in WoW, still allowed everyone to have a "house" of sorts.

They did this as well in AION and had an auction system for housing.
Even now I don't understand how this system can be so backwards. XI had mog houses, everyone had one, we just lacked a yard and anything super fancy. Why in the hell after 15 years (since XI) is housing still an issue with SE? You'd think that SE would've taken from XI and just advanced it to meet the demands of today player base. But we all know SE excuse to this- servers lack the room, as with everything else... like inventory space.

PS3 limitations

Well, yes, there also that issue....but even still they could've taken XI model and just advanced slightly more. Even now with Xbox and PS2 players they got a mog house that has two floors and supports the whole player base (which lol isn't very many people left but still)

Oh yeah! I completely forgot about the moghouse in XI, I rarely ever went in mine other than to put a few tabards and flags in that I earned via the city-state quests (or whatever they were called at the time). I still think Wildstar has the best housing in modern MMO's, it's amazing to see what people have done with their plots.

Had my mog house all decked out. Didn't use it as much as I do my FC room, but was great to have at times when just hanging around the main cities.
I've never played Wildstar, but I've heard good things about it. It sad when a f2p game has much more to offer over a game that we pay for monthly

PS3 limitations

PS3, White Knight Chronicles 1 & 2, player 'housing' in the form of a complete village of your own, more like PS3 advantage....

I enjoyed having my own village..i used to afk in there due to the music of the town with water, if even WKC could do it wtf is SE doing.

Does that game/developer have to remove other UI elements in order to make TP bars without numbers possible...?

There's a pretty substantial different between "not feasible" and "poorly executed/incompetent".

PS3 limitations

..are not the problem here. The PS3 doesn't care if there are 2 housing districts or 2 million. It's only loading one zone at a time into the PS3's memory, not all of them, so the number is irrelevant. It's why you don't have to upgrade your PS3 every time they add a new dungeon or other adventuring zone to the game.

What's the big deal with houses? Not being sarcastic, I'm seriously curious. Do they offer any bonuses or anything?
