[Suggestion & Discussion] Increasing the number of houses in which we can be tennants

[ZeroRaziel]

Garden access might be seen as a problem by SE if the limit on shared estates was increased. It might also be a matter of technology limits (certainly we've got plenty of other strange limitations).

If you're trying to convince SE this is needed, it's probably best to state what problem(s) are you experiencing that would be corrected by increasing the limit.

Thing is there are no any real problems. It's mostly about small QoL improvements. Just like increasing our inventory space, getting a Chocobo Saddlebag, Glamour Dresser or increasing a number of furniture we can place and a Storeroom and etc.
Right now if more than two of your friends owning a house ask you to help them furnishing/decorating it, setting up some rare music on Orchestrion or even teaching them how to use a garden you have to either turn some of them down or constantly juggle between houses by evicting yourself each time to try to help your other friend. Which is quite a chore and a hassle.
Another inconvenience is accessibility. Sometimes teleporting to close friends house is more convinient from a Teleport Menu than from a Friends List (and 4x times cheaper). Some of players also don't want to allow everyone to their houses except for friends, so only way to teleport to them and enter theirs house is if you are a tenant =|

Iirc when housing was introduced there were just 5 wards with no subdivisions. So it was 450 houses per world. Now we have 5760 houses per world (7200 if Ishgardian housing area happens), so statistically much more players possess a house now. Since the amount of houses increased more than 10 times it might make sense to allow us to be tenants in more than just 2 houses.

Ofcourse if it's a coding limitation thats a different story. Just decided to bring this whole topic up since housing came a long way since ARR and Square Enix might have kind of forgotten about this feature whatsoever :P
