Another Instance Housing Request Thread

[Jojoya]

I imagine there's going to be an omega amount of salt about this if Island Sanctuary turns out to be instanced lol

Why would there be salt when we've known that from the first announcement?

I suspect they have their priorities elsewhere. They just sold a good chunk of their properties. supposedly to fund their blockchain gaming ambitions. Probably just going to let my subscription run out after the 6 months pass. Surely, some MMO out there with a better housing system wants my money.

There are games with better housing. The question is will you feel the rest of the game is also worth playing?

I mean I love RIFT's Dimensions. That's the housing system I would love to see here (but using FFXIV art aesthetics, of course). It addresses just about every concern that players have about housing. It might be entirely instanced but some of those instances are large enough with huge item limits (can be up to 2800) you can invite friends in and create a neighborhood together, and it's easy to find and visit Dimensions belonging to other players if they have visitor access enabled.

But the rest of the game is mediocre. Not terrible, but also not especially good. It also relies heavily on the cash shop since it's F2P and the player population is dying out. Excellent housing alone is not enough for a MMO.
