I agree with you OP. Thanks to the auto demolishing you cant really take a longer break..at the same time Yoshida said that its fine to play another game till the next patch.. Yet we cant truly take a break because we have to log in once each month to keep our house..which means that we have to constantly pay the sub even if we only log in once..

Really its even more sad since he once said the in the past that a housing timer is thing of the past and will not be part of this game..really..I hate it that we as the customers have to pay the price because the Devs cant somehow accept that they created a faulty system and change it to something better..If I ever lose my house for any reasons than this will surely be the last day of FF14 for me too.
