    Instance Farming VS Instance Housing .would u trade?

    So im wondering how of you would rather have a instance house for every player... vs instance farming??

    When SE said Buildings in farm land.. you can bet its like stables barn maybe silo for grain no house to deco <--- If there was a house to deco SE would of said to shut all of us up think about it

    Keep in mind with the new Instance farming Se has 100% proven they can give every player a instance that you can invite people to

    I get that, the issue is pushing hypothetical questions like this encourages the people who think instanced gardening will magically fix everything, and even if that IS the majority, sometimes the majority is straight up wrong, and this would be one of those cases, so yeah, I don't like even encouraging an idea that won't be a real fix hypothetically.

    all the housing nerds dont like the farm thing, it is ruining their source of income when everyone now make their materials and rare items to be grown can now be done by everyone...

    I welcome the farm thing... would make life easier for me in so many ways and give me something additional to do, removing ways you can get hard to get materials from housing and FC's would be a way to ruin some of the ingame NFT alike farms, which goal is to make lots of gil to a possible resale.

    Gardening is overrated. Instanced housing for those who want houses along side the ward system.

    I probably would pick a house, as in all likely hood the Island Farming thing is going to be one and done content.

    Players can only be in one instance at a time so we should be able to have both. The one not in use wouldn't take a lot of server space.

    As part of any plan to widen gardening, SE must also add in current raid-food ingredients, and keep them up to date with each tier of new raid-food.

    As it stands, gardening really is overrated as a gil making task. I only do it (9 gardens, 72 plants, most at friend's houses) because I like the relaxation of it. And for that reason alone it's worth it. If you like to water plants then it's great!

    But honestly, there are very few items left that make money, and the most profitable takes 17 days to grow - cross-breed to harvest. For those 17 days you are rewarded about 134,000g (Current Aether price) so, that's an income of 7800 gil per day, if it sells. If you have the seed in excess then it's a mere 10 days to grow and a whopping 13,400/day gil income! A level 70 or 80 map harvested and sold each day gets far more.

    About the only other item that sells takes 7 days to grow cross-breed to harvest and sells for 17,000g (current Aether price), an income of 2400 gil per day. Your retainers bring in more than this.

    There are a few chocobo dye foods that sell for pennies to use up all your hunt tokens.

    And for this small amount of gil, you will be spending a clock-work-like 10 minutes every single day. No time off for good behaviour. You are locking yourself to "water all the plants at 9:00am"

    Pretty much all the rest of the plants are for very old food, pre level 50 stuff or novelty minions.

    There are quicker better ways to get gil like Ice Shards (60 gil x 80 per slot x 8/16/24 for small/medium/large)
    You can also get Curiel Root/Sylkis/other seeds which takes around 5 days and 2 days from the allied seals seeds.
    I get an average of 200k/2 days from my medium plot.

    I don't see why gardening should be limited to plot owners when it should be accessible for everyone. No wonder Thav onions are 100k a pop.

    All of those can be done in an apartment.

    By all means, give gardening to everyone, but I will lay odds that most people get bored and stop it after one crop, if they get that far.
