Housing next please.

[Haru304]

Wonder what would happen if they multiplied the price of houses by around ten. If they're not as affordable, people won't feel pressure to house camp!

In all seriousness, system isn't perfect but my player house which I had a very hard time getting is one of the few things in the game I feel has a sense of value.

I would vote for that if the plot and house wouldn't have a demolished timer that gets rids of everything once you didnt visit it for more than a month. I would have no issue with paying 50 or even 100m for a small plot if i had the guarantee that i will keep it forever like its usual in nearly every other mmo with housing.

I don't mind the leasing aspect itself. But I do hate the fact it's basically tied to your subscription.. Which goes agains Yoshi P's original promise which is pretty famous hell a few people still have the quote in there forum sigs.

However if they did add a lease system where you can just buy "housing ventures" (for want of a better term) with GC seals or something and trade them in for a weeks plot lease or whatever I'd be totally cool with that. As you could just trade in like 6 months worth of ventures befroe you drop your sub and take a break and be golden when you come back.

But the current demo thing does suck because it goes against another of Yoshi P's famous quotes. That it's ok to take a break and unsubscribe for a while, Everything will still be here for you when you come back....

Everything except my house.....

Well i never saw these statements' but than again i don't care that much about news or live shows. But yea its pretty obvious and honestly still the main reason why i keep the sub even if i don't play the game that much sometimes. Being able to take a break without the knowing that you lose your property and half of your stuff you worked for would indeed be nice. Or just focusing on an alt without feeling the need to log in with your main every few days.

I can confirm. At the housing release, Y-P said we were not going to lose our house. I will try to find the interview.

Sad... accurates archives from 2013-2014 are not that easy to find... Google is not my friend anymore

Q: Will there be any maintenance fees or other costs for housing, besides the cost of the land and house?
A: In older MMOs, such as Ultima Online, there was a house maintenance fee you had to pay weekly, but in FFXIV: ARR we decided against this system. Similarly, these older MMOs also had a system where your house would break down if you didn’t log in after a while in order to have you continue your subscription, but this is a thing of the past and we won't have any system like that.

*Tssss... now I will look lazy - In my defense, I thought it was an external interview, not in a liveletter *
