What was the situation like in regards to player housing in FFXI? Did it exist...and if so, did every player have access to it?

One additional point of emphasis: the equivalent nature of the housing in XI ensured equal access to the possible bonuses available (such as reduced XP loss on death), in addition to Gardening.
In my estimation, this is one of the more problematic aspects of XIV's Apartments. While they're a similar size to XI's Mog Houses (well, to the original MH pre-second-floor), they don't provide equivalent access to Gardening, nor will they permit the higher-level FC Actions or FC Workshop access.
I didn't play FF XI long and never really messed with my Mog House much, so the responses on this page are appreciated. I didn't know that they had (or added) various things. It has been about 9 years or so since I last played after playing for about a year-ish. Had a blast though and will never forget it.One additional point of emphasis: the equivalent nature of the housing in XI ensured equal access to the possible bonuses available (such as reduced XP loss on death), in addition to Gardening.

Think of the inn room in XIV but you can place things in it. That was it for most of the game's life. It's similar to what you can do with apartments and single rooms in other MMOs with no lawn, but didn't require you to purchase it. Later they added another floor but it was basically the same thing, you used the door to zone into it so it wasn't like you went up some steps or anything it was just another instance. Later they added an "outdoor area" that was basically the same for everyone. Basically everyone got a "copy" of the same instance and it would look different depending on what nation you were at just like the inn rooms in XIV.
*edit - nevermind the extra floor was talked about lol
But yes the mog houses in XI were pretty like the apartments in XIV (size wise) only could put a vast amount of cool items in the mog house. And nice thing I liked about it, when you logout in your mog house, you log in, you were still in your mog house. I know, odd thing but I like to be able to logout in my house and then log back in while still in my house rather then standing outside. The outside garden was pretty neat also imo.
