Why housing is bad, and how to fix it

[Daniolaut]

I disagree with your comments about treating housing as a priority over fixing the post-ARR questline So basically, I've just detailed what gets said on every thread of this kind and said give us instanced housing.

. I dont know why they arent creating instanced gardens for apartments. This would address some of the concern yes. Yoshida said himself Free Company housing wouldnt share the same areas as personal housing. Him failing to deliver, dug this hole, and its only getting worse. (With the influx of new players from Shadowbringers. Literally not a single world on NA data centers is preferred, and nearly half are congested. Over 1 month later.)

The point Nanami made is not to stop talking about the issue, it is stop creating a new thread every other day. By doing so you're actually hurting this cause,

No, that by itself is fine.

What is not fine, and what you should not do, is start yet another thread complaining about the house buying system.
There are already a gazillion of those threads, and you should have picked some existing thread to post your advice in.

Actually. I just poured over the last 2- 3 months worth of threads...
over 20 threads worth..

only 2 have gotten proper attention. One being the player being rather aggressive to Square-Enix, the other a petition to add more wards.

Square-Enix already stated they would not add more wards. This also doesnt fix the issue of all these new players "fixing A Realm Reborn story" is going to magically bring in, as they will fill extremely quickly, as the players already playing are complaining of not having land.

So the problem, in fact, is not how many threads there are, but the players derailing threads, as being done here, or the players not listening to Square-Enix and asking for things specifically they said they cannot offer.
Here, I will link each thread on the specific topic of players expressing disappointment with the availability to housing or similar issues:

Why people always believed the reason they lost is because other people use the bot?

Who said the reason someone lost their plot was to a bot? If anyone has, it shouldnt happen, as there should be no systems in place that encourages botting.

because they didn't get it and they're salty and full of raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggggeeeeeeeeeeeeee SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I already own a house.

To further my point. as of this post, this comment has the most likes.
This is the mindset the playerbase encourages.

Fix? Address? Improve? No.
Make simple, make easier, make popular, make Fortnite dances? Yes.

If sounds like you don't know much about housing. There's way more to Housing then the placards. It's hard to take this review of housing seriously if most of what you talk about is a tiny placard.

. I was very clear, that a large reason why housing is in a sorry state is, lack of separation of FC and personal housing, alternate characters automatically sharing housing, and the other issues my original post covered.

Its very clear, from Square-Enix stand point, they have no interest in adding siginficantly more wards, if any-more, nor will they change it to all instance housing. I purposefully tried to avoid touching on things that will hold no bearing. So, simply put. You are wrong, and dont understand housing yourself.

If you say I don't understand the housing system, then prove it. Why is the housing system bad?

If you think, for any reason, being unable to log in and visit your house every 45 days, then not visiting the housing caretaker within 35 days after, resulting in losing your house, your gil. and every single item inside, is ok. Then no one saying anything will ever "prove it."
