Highland/Alpine partitions: the bare minimum.

[orinntintin]

Y'know, I can't quite say why this is so rage-inducing for me. I'm not a rage-y person, after all, and most things in video games that may upset most of their player base receive a shrug from me at best.

But there is something about the fact that we are almost six months post-Ishgard housing launch without the partitions to match the housing we've been anticipating for a year+ prior... that really, really, gets my goat. Really grinds my gears.

I think because it's the absolute bare minimum - that's why I'm so peeved. There's just no reason whatsoever that partitions to match the Ishgardian interiors couldn't have been dropped already.

This is definitely peak "haha entitled gamer baby rant lol", yes, I get it. But I just gotta shout this out into the empty void somewhere and empty it out, because I want to really make my FC's house look nice. We were so lucky to get it, after all. And yet I'm so displeased that there's just no partitions, guys. The marble ones suck. The other ones feel like a waste of gil, because if, Heaven forbid, they DO actually give us proper partitions [probably in another six months, ahahAHAHAH-] I'll have to buy them and rebuild this whole dumb thing all over again.

So, if anyone wants to come at me with a qq, go for it. But sometimes when a company half-a**es something, anything, they deserve an angry customer or two.

You are 100% correct. We need those partitions and pillars. Like, tomorrow.

There's so much furniture sitting in Ishgard unused. Same with a lot of ARR overworld furnishings we never got. Like the barrel chairs in Wineport, the fireplace in Wineport, the plush white seating in the Archery leader's office, ceiling plants that actually hang from the ceiling.

The assets are there, they're coded, please let us use them.

Exactly! I don't see why they don't release all furnishing assets, even if it's in staggered stages and even if you have to buy them from a housing merchant so they don't have to come up with crafting recipes. I'm an omni-gatherer/crafter and prefer to make my own stuff from scratch, but I'd be willing to spend the Gil to buy items that I'd need to complete a theme or look.

Probably it's a database/communications issue related to the marketboard. Part of the reason they removed HQ gathered materials from the game was to reduce the number of different item IDs the MB needed in its database.

Adding a list of specific assets already in the game that you want to use in housing to the Housing Request thread is probably the best way to go. It was a source of amusement to me to discover that the Antique Sink added last expansion was the same that's been part of the Culinarian's Guild at the Bismarck since at least ARR (or maybe even 1.0 for all I know). I suspect it was probably added as a result of player requests.

Alpine Partition
Blank Alpine Partition
Alpine Partition Door

These are basically essential additions guys.

[Imora]

And while they're at it, make the glade partition and door match, thanks. Don't repeat that mistake with the highland partition either.

[Alycen]

Let's not forget the matching pillars everyone!

[CidHeiral]

I agree. Very bizarre to launch a new district without the matching walls and pillars.

Would be nice to have blank door partitions that match the different housing styles as well, but that may be some sort of engine limitation.

Because all of the default walls are extremely ugly and nobody should use them
