Housing Congestion

[MaybeOliverB]

Hey everyone,

I was looking into to seeing if there were any houses available to purchase (long shot on gilgamesh I know) but I came across a specific ward in the mist where an FC owns about 23 houses.

Hello, hi.

There was almost 10 houses available yesterday (throughout the day), so it's not that difficult to find something. The FC owns 26 if you include the personal houses.

Now my question is how is this even allowed?

Yes it is.

Why was it not thought of by the developers to limit the amount of houses owned.

Because they didn't think players would put in the enormous effort it takes to acquire multiple houses. Especially on populated servers. They did end up limiting the amount of personal houses a player can purchase down to 1. There is currently no limit regarding FC houses so you can potentially own 540+ fc houses on a single service account.

The other thing that bugs me is the houses are not in use.

And how did you came to that conclusion? We are using the gardens/flower pots. We are priming aetherial wheels. We are using company workshops.

ALMOST all of them are plots with nothing in the yard and either a fish tank or mannequins inside named "get out".

Sorry what? The yards are at or 1 item short of the furniture limit. The insides are all decorated evenly on top of having a free company chest, and orchestration, a fish tank with a rare Hannibal inside, a summoning bell, a compact level 6 wheel stand and a stupidly expensive rug because the floor isn't radiant (yet).

This doesn't really seem fair to players that may want a piece of the game to themselves or to enjoy with friends.

Fair? Anyone can obtain that many houses if they desire.

Anyway I guess this is more of rant than anything but I felt like it should be addressed regardless.

If you want your own house, ranting on here isn't gonna achieve that. Get to work.
