If that’s only for large homes I’m so not gonna be happy as I’m sure allot of players who enjoy housing won’t be.

I see what you’re saying but I don’t agree sadly. Usually exterior homes all have the same look. Slight differences yes but that comes with size. It shouldn’t change the look of the home. I expect to see the same staircase for all home sizes. If it’s only for large homes I’m not gonna be happy. First off they don’t even give us allot of large homes to begin with and then throw salt on the wound to give only large homes the staircase. No bueno.

Yeah it’s definitely there. At first I thought maybe it was a furnishing and that’s why it wasn’t in the new picture but this definitely looks actually attached to the house.

Yeah they certainly look the same except for the stairs. It Is in a different plot because of the camera angle, but can anyone tell if the LL one is a Large plot? They look the same size to me.

EDIT: No, wait, the roof is all different, they must be different sizes, then.

Every patch that we do not get glamour closets and Archaeology is another day that FF14 does not live up to its full potential if you ask me. Entire sets of content get ignored because of a full glamour box which is amazingly silly. I just wish they would finish designing the system they started 7 years ago.

This is a huge slap in the face to housing players if this is true. They don’t even have allot of larges in wards and for them to only give the staircase to large homes. Huge slap in the face if this is true....

It would reduce the chance of high level players getting low level dungeons but still leaving the door open for people queueing in specifically for them to not have high queue times.

This would be ideal. I can't help but wonder if there's some weirdness in how and when in the process it selects the duty that prevents this, that they can only circumvent when the whole matchmaking process is removed. This might be another victim of the bizarre code the game is built on.
