To be fair, the OP attempted to bribe his way into getting a house. That's why people are less sympathetic.

Well I was more referring to the fact that some people place great value in housing to the point that it can affect their happiness in the rest of the game. That said I do wonder about those who heavily imply housing is their priority but remain on a highly populated server where their chances of getting one are immeasurably small. They're not exactly helping their own situation by staying there.

I wanna apologize if I offended you with my response to the thread. We all have goals, may it be having all classes at 70, becoming gil-capped or as you said; Owning a house. I myself also have the goal of owning a house, but that won't mean that I'd just quit the game because I did not get one. It does feel horrible, I can understand that but don't let that get to you. Quitting because of that would be a waste of your own time, money and dedication that you could've put into something more valuable.

No need for apologies. I didn't take personal offense.

While I understand how someone can feel very unhappy for not having a house, I agree quitting because of it would raise some eyebrows including my own. I enjoy several aspects of the game, and I would still be playing if I had no access to housing. But I admit my enjoyment would be much less colourful if my personal goal was unattainable through no fault of my own. It certainly felt that way for a while.

I do respect other people's viewpoints, but please listen to what I say right now: When I bought FFXIV, the first things in my mind were the fights, dungeons and raids I will be doing with others or just becoming social with other players. But having a house? While there is content locked behind FC housing, it's not the first thing I'd expect from a Final Fantasy game.

One less person to complain. If you want housing that bad, transfer to a smaller server. It’s that simple. Plenty of housing and friendly communities are everywhere. Cross world PF and chat make it easier than ever.

Many smalls and many mediums on Behemoth.

There's a TON of smalls and Mediums left on Faerie. Lavender Beds is the ONLY area to not have Large and Mediums. I'm sorry you are on a crazy populated server but christ I got plenty of alts if you need an FC that bad I'll be happy to lend you two of mine to get your FC going!

What I'm starting to get from these threads after the new system isn't "I can't get a house" but "I don't want a small house."

Which leads me to believe smalls need redesigned on the inside or people feel entitled to the bigger houses just because they made the gil, despite the fact everyone around them also made the gil... Their gil is the most important gil.

It's probably both.

This has already happened. Remember when smalls didn't even have the basement? LOL. Simpler times.

Small plots having feelings too. Do not worry Small plots I still love you.

Smalls can be quite cozy tbh (many have wonderful views as well). And with the relocating having priority, it's a very nice way to start!
Also there's plenty examples on how to decorate those in a wonderful way, specially after they increased the furnishing capacity.

Well everyone has their goals in the game. My number 1 goal for a long time was to get my own house. With a lot of hard work and some luck I got it. When I didn't have a house I honestly felt hopeless at times. Never enough to quit but I'll admit it made me miserable sometimes. Maybe this makes me pathetic too but it's how I felt.

I get you! At first I thought I was ok without one but after a while they grew on me and considering that I don't have that much time to play, I also felt like I was losing a portion of the game that's pretty fun! (crafting/decorating homes, gardening. I love The Sims, so yeah...)
Not to say that you always get housing stuff with Events.

The amount of entitlement people display when it comes to certain features is astounding. As a few others said, see you next month though. You'll be back like always.
