PLEASE LET US EDIT WALLS!

Not everyone wants those features in their house (or can in the case of the wheel stands being restricted to FC houses). Why should potential item space be taken up by things not everyone wants? Please, let's take away 100 general use inventory spaces from everyone so fishers can have their specialized tackle box they want even though not everyone has unlocked FSH and not every fisher wants to keep every bait/lure.

Let's communicate without the sarcasm. Please? I work with middle school students all day and don't relish the idea of dealing with more of it at night. Thankfully just 7 or so more Mondays until summer break.

That said, at what point did I say the basic housing features most FCs use...needed to be locked in for everyone and use up their slots? In fact, I want to see SE free up the slots those items take up and make those basic housing features optional slots kind of like they do the yard with the "Optional Fixtures" menu when you click remodel. Make it so that as you put items such like the summoning bell in a slot on that "optional features" menu, have it appear in the house and then let the player move it around. My post literally adds up the items that are also housing features to show how many valuable slots they eat up. If I wasn't clear enough...then hopefully this helps. It would also be a good space to add the ability to change out the pillars/stairs etc in the houses in the same remodel window we use to change the floors and lighting.

As for the other part of your reply, I understand that there are different teams and I'll be the first to admit that I don't know how many are currently on each or what each person does. I haven't looked at the list really since Stormblood and was too emotional post Endwalker to watch the names as closely. I do know they like to mix things up in the past and make these side projects like when GPose was added as I recall back in 3.1 (now there's a feature that grew over the years unlike housing).

Where would portraits and adventure plates fit in with which dev team? Who knows...UI Designers or programmers? Non-Combat Content Designers or programmers? What's the break down of content devs per those groups? No idea. Is there some overlap in within those groups and housing...maybe, but SE doesn't tell us specifics like that usually.

Tangent: I would love to see a panel at the next fanfest that is just those devs working on housing like they had Mr. Ozma before for battle design.

But yeah, they literally said the plates were in beta still and that's why I mentioned that as an example of the newest one they are adding to the game. I like new stuff as much as the next person. I just want to see them also improving and investing in the older stuff too.
