Honestly I would personally have it so multiple house owners would be stuck unable to relocate or buy another house until they lower their holdings to the 1/1 limit. To be clear i'm not hating on the small time benign multi home owners (2-6? homes) but, in order to fix the problem there will still be unfortunate victims no matter the solution. That said they wouldn't be loosing any of their homes yet. However, SE has seen it so multi home owners simply cannot acquire any new homes which is still acceptable at this time. This is a small solution on a still major problem but a clear step in the right direction.

Are there any news on how its going to be handled when you have more than fc 2 houses? I do RP and my old FC house has 1000 of hours of attachment to it we do regular events there with 20+ people and I'm not willing to give that up - even less so my private FC house that I worked for like an Animal over months and months to get the money! Do I need another account so I don't have to choose one of them? I'll RP almost everyday there with friends so.. I'm kinda lost and scared that this is just going away form me - We just made them FC houses so we could use rooms...

Also.. this only means the owner of the FC right? So any normal person in the guild can have houses or fc houses with other chars..?

The new rules only apply to the purchase of houses. So you'll be blocked from purchasing additional houses but not adopting existing houses attached to an FC.

Thank you very much, i was very much unwilling to give up so many hours of RP and the events we do and was in total panic! I was not going to buy more houses anyway 2 fc houses are enough for the RP - Puh... I think I need some fresh air now.

While it's nice to know that people can't just buy up in lots just to resell, I can't help but feel like SE completely forgot ( or even ignored the incident ) till right before the patch, and decided to put the duct tape on instead of actually taking a look at the issue. I know this is something that Yoshi initially mentioned they were going to address around 2.4, and here we are in 4.2 and its still feels like Damage control as usual without much effort put into it in the end.

As others have already noted, and from what I've seen, the many that don't own homes already were desperately making new FC's JUST to ensure they'd get a house, which given how many people were trying to get houses to begin w/ in 4.1 means there probably won't be a lot to pick from once FC's get their fill. Heck thanks to the announcement, house property skyrocketed in value as people raced to sell houses towards the middle of it with the notion that they were probably going to disable it, given how many houses sold on Reddit. Though to clarify I don't mean everyone, but a good chunk.

In the end, those that came before us that got theirs lucked out, though for the remainder ( after FC battles ) its back to Yoshi's initial statement " Housing is an exotic feature not everyone should have "

I know it's pointless to rant but felt I'd share the understanding w/ others as well. Actions speak louder than words anyways.

You can post something within the text limit, then go back and edit it to make it longer and get around the text limit. That's how you see these really long posts.

Housing in this game is absurd, the devs seems to be out of touch with the situation and the players, they basically make so that whoever already has a house are guarateed a shirogane one, and who dont have , well, "houses arent supossed to everyone" (so why even bother to add more wards?) this patch shows perfectly, its band aids on top of band aids and no definitive solutions, new glamour system is just flawed, balancing is a joke, but heyy we got
a pretty ui for perform

....right now im trying to motivate myself and my friends to keep playing.
Its not only housing, its many small wrong moves, and the comparisons to other mmos make the game look bad but the memories we all have here are too strong.
