    this is gloating not "positive"
    the people you took it from were probably getting the "estate locked" error when they were trying to buy it.

    Happened to a lot of people i know, How infuriating it must be to actually be the first to your dream plot just to have the damn signpost deny you while some guy saunters up behind you and takes it literally right out from under you after all the stress of the messed up patch and logging in with all the errors and having to deprive yourself of sleep and maybe even having to take a vacation day just so you can try to get the thing you've been dreaming of for months/years

    I'm not saying this is a great thread and all that, but the people who bought houses and got lucky shouldn't have to be bleeding hearts for the rest of the community.
    I got lucky and found a vacated plot in the Goblet, this is after being beaten out to vacated plots in Mist and Lavender Beds, and logging in 20 minutes after because of a fucking lobby server error when I logged in the first time to find all the Shirogane plots completely gone. Even as a winner I've found this to be one of the dumbest, most frustrating MMO experiences I've ever had the pleasure of engaging in.

    Exactly. I'm just saying there is no point in getting angry at people for being fortunate or being happy about it, even if they're "bragging." Square Enix is 100% at fault for all of the stress and anxiety regarding housing. I'm just saying that it reflects poorly on one's character to seriously take out their frustration on another person for a terrible situation they happened to strive in despite them having zero control over it.

    this exactly,
    I missed a chance for our L FC house too, like all hardworking and sleepless night went down in drain.
    but I'm upset at how system is designed, not people in the game.
    I'm salty, yes. But congrats whoever got a house.

    what kind of horrible system in what is supposed to be a fun video game encourages this type of thing?
    Exactly this. "Staying up all night", "cancelling work", "suffering horrible anxiety", "depression" are not traits or emotions that any company much less a gaming company should be striving to elicit from its fanbase/population. Yes, you can argue that it's everyone's choice to do something like canceling work or skipping school but they could also implement a housing system in many different ways that doesn't require people having to feel the need to go to such extremes.

    ...yet, these are the emotions I'm seeing across the FFXIV player base. We are paying for this "enjoyment" after all, housing is relatively major content for this particular game, there's a lot you can do with it, and 90% of the user base shouldn't be excluded from it because of login ques and complete random chance. Terrible design, planning, implementation/execution on SE's part. Shame on you, company. No more excuses. Fix your design ideology. It's still about 2 decades behind well researched norms for how you should design "housing" in an MMO setting. That's just sad. I'm sad.

    I don't think there are much positiv things to say about.

    Just personally I'm soooooo happy that I could've save a house for my FC. The whole FC feels very blessed. And I mean VERY!

    But there's also a bitter aftertaste lingering....for all of those disapointed ppl out there now.

    My FC managed to snag a medium in Shirogane. FC leader and her husband woke up early to install and be ready by the time the servers went live. They had plenty of money from the house they sold on Balmung before transferring. They said they would have liked to get a large house, but they ran out quickly.
