well even FFXI had the moghouses that no has 2 floors and a mog garden to garden with. Even before the mog garden you could grow more than 2 plants inside unlike the apartment in FFXIV.

I would be happy if they improved slightly on apartments giving us the option to purchase an additional floor or bigger apartment and increase the limit that an apartment can grow plants. Shoots make it the same prices as plots if you want to factor the cost.

Housing is such a disappointment in FFXIV overall. So many MMOs particularly MMOS older than than FFXI has housing been implemented way better.
