Removal of "exterior house glamour set" destruction :)

[MistyMew]

Hidy ho to all,

Seeing the new chocobo house design on the twitch broadcast I feel compelled to ask SE to consider removing the "destruction" of these "housing glamour sets" when changed.

Pretty please!

The chocobo house looks really nice btw a thank you to the artists!!

For the amount of materials required to make the moogle home, armor shop etc, I
really think destruction of these should not occur.

Please consider allowing us to save the sets and reuse as we see fit.

I made 2 moogle sets, 1 (Med) and 1 (Mansion) sized and 1 eatery (Med) so far, gathered and crafted every item on my own so I am well aware of the time it takes to gather all the material and make the components. And I am ok with the process.

I am also well aware of the "ughh...nauseating" feeling when one set is totally lost with the application of another. Its not the best idea to promote fun, it ultimately promotes less participation >more.

I would love to change out the appearance of my home and fc home depending on season, event time...heck even just depending on my mood today, lol.
The housing glamours as I call them have a huge potential in the futre so many awesome ideas/designs could b generated...

But I sadly have huge reservations on ever changing one again due to the destruction feature. It just too much of a waste imo.

Removing this feature would only increase enjoyment, not stifle it (as destruction ultimately does)

Since we cant create our own designs in ffxiv, I like the idea of changing the appearances at least with the predesigned sets, and would love to freely interchange them once completed without the buzz kill for doing so. lol

The initial construction cost/time is payment to SE enough imo...for just a glamour effect.

As time goes on and more and more sets are released, its just gonna feel more restrictive, not more enjoyable.

Please consider allowing this one thing to at least change and favor the players fun + enjoyment + creative choice > the companys need to take away and paranoia over economy.

(I could understand if the house glamour sets gave a specific fc buff or advantage, or personal combat stats were somehow super boosted by having a moogle house > an eatery O.o but they are simply for visual pleasure.)

In some other games we can freely change an entire zone design on a whim, with no destruction/permanant removal of....anything.

I realize this is not "those games"...but that doesnt mean we should not adapt what IS better from others. The game should always be striving to better itself, this is one small way to do so.

The economy will thrive regardless...so lets allow the "fun" to thrive as well!

Aye I agree! It would also be nice to not have these things appear as sets in the future. The fun of customizing a house has been deminished since you have no choice really anymore. It's either full on chocobo or bust. Most the fun of house decoration is that you get to mix and match. But they made things so limited. Only three choices of mixable items (such as fences and walls), items locked behind region, or a set that you can't piece apart. I just don't understand why we have to have a set and not a chocobo fence, chocobo wall, etc to decorate as we like. Not that the entire set isn't nice as it is, it just is a LOT more fun when you can experiment with the individual items.

Agreed - this could only increase QoL for us players.

[worldofneil]

Also totally agree. I've only built the small exteriors and even that was enough effort that I wouldn't want to consider losing it...

[Culfinrandir]

Agreed. I know that in the past they have mentioned trying to remove the "destroy if removed" thing but there's no recent news.

I'd like to see them do this for the lighting and such as well. Make the items "unlock" glamours/lighting/walls/flooring for the house/room/etc and then swap between them on a dropdown.

[Aivi_lo]

Yes please, I don't want to destroy anything and I don't see the need to

What's odd is certain items that they say will in fact get destroyed don't. I've moved a few rare things from one house to another and was pleasantly surprised that they didn't go poof. I don't see why they can't do it with the walls. I've made two of those so far and yeah, they are staying on the houses they are on. Made sure that I was happy with the lots and the design prior to even starting. Would be nice if we could change them occationally.

[OliviaJ]

Well, at least some stuff got altered so that it doesn't get destroyed upon removal in this patch. It's a step in the right direction. Not quite there yet though. I'll take what we can get.

Totally agree! I am very tempted to make the chocobo house set but am very undecided if I want to "destroy" the moogle house set I currently have. As part of a fairly small FC with a mansion, it took ages and so MANY materials to make the moogle set, and I totally expect the same with the chocobo set, which I am fine with...but...not so having to destroy the moogle set.

I love changing items in the yard and inside the house on a regular basis but since putting the moogle set on have not changed the look of the house since. Having the ability to be able to keep these sets would definitely see me changing the exterior regularly!

Please SE, look forward (in the future) to (you doing) this!
