Making the game alt/alt-job friendly

[SpiritMuse]

The only alt-friendly thing that I really miss is the ability to send stuff to our alts. Would be nice to be able to craft some nice gear for my alts and help them along in the quest.

I have 3 active alts in FFXIV, where in WoW I had around 14/15. I'd like the game to be more alt-friendly because I'd much rather continue playing FFXIV than switch to another game when I get bored with my main. I make them for fun, to redo the MSQ and also because I find levelling everything on one character too hard because of limits on armoury and inventory space.

What I'd like to see:
-Sharing houses with alts enabled - This wont solve the housing shortage but it will help to ease demand.
-Being able to mail your alts

It would also be nice if some achievements, titles and mounts were made account wide (not rep or job-specific mounts) but that's a minor issue compared to the 2 above.

Pretty sure the mail alt thing is to counter RMT. I'd love for it though.

Like I mentioned the easiest way to get around the mail issue is just get FC chest drawer rights to move items between toons.

As for housing, there's much higher demand than supply, why buy another house (and keep another player or entire fc a chance to get one)

Because you can when no one cared at the time...

Is only usefull if you also do Savage raid with all the alts.

Who cares if it is "useful"? It is what people want to do to have fun! It is what they enjoy doing! And isn't fun and enjoyment what gaming is all about?
