MOGSTATION HOUSING

[Qojon]

Thoughts?

I think it would be great!

[Purrsnikitty]

They already get enough money from us. The fact that some content for free companies is locked behind housing makes this idea even more unacceptable.

[Sokina]

That would be too simple. What we should have, is a limited amount of houses on the mogstation, and open them up for purchase at the same time for everyone....and then make the webpage crash for 80% of the people who tried to confirm their transaction!

I don't think SE should do anything to profit from their broken system like that. It's pretty messed up.

No, they need to fix apartments. They need to be bigger and have an acceptable outdoor component and they need to be unlimited in supply. There's absolutely no reason why this couldn't be. So many people I know would be fine with apartments if they weren't so freaking small. Why make them that tiny? It's ridiculous, honestly. And if the apartments were more reasonable, people would actually want to use them and people who don't want to deal with housing in the wards (demolish timers, etc) would avoid them altogether, thus freeing up more plots in the wards for those who care about it.

Also they need to be open for FCs to purchase.

They give me the inventory space and SMN Egis that was promised in HW and we will talk.

Apartments should be the same size as a large house so people will buy them too. Houses should also be sold at a lower price so us low level players and non crafters will be able to buy them whenever we want to

LMAO, I get the reference.

You have to have a very high IQ to understand the housing situation. It's extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of supply/demand most of the mechanics will go over a sprout's head. There's also certain players and their socialist outlook - the personal philosophy draws from the Ala Mhigan refugee mentality. Many of the true fans understand; they have the intellect to appreciate economic depth, realizing that it's not just a contest- it's saying something deep. People who dislike capitalism are buffoons- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humor in the wealthy player's catchphrase "GOODNIGHT SHIROGANE," which is a reference to The Flintstones. I'm smirking right now just imagining beggars scratching their heads as the housing situation unfolds. What fools...I pity them. And yes, I have a fully-furnished house. And no, you can't see it. It's for the ladies only- And even they have to demonstrate they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) :^)

This reminds me of the discussion SoA was having with PSU for a bit...
"The Microsoft certification process is making it too difficult to add assets with the patches, so you're getting gimped versions of the JP PC updates without any of the new items. But now, if people were willing to pay for asset packs on top of their sub... Well, we just might be able to do something..."

If a company releases a broken system that they aren't willing to legitimately fix, don't reward them by giving them more money to mitigate/bypass it. :-/

Absolutely not! That is completely unfair and verging on pay to win. Not everyone can afford to buy mogstation stuff as it is much less housing.
