Im a long time player, been around in one form or another since 1.0. I've run all the content that I can without a FC and am very pleased with the game, for the most part anyway. Really the only goal I still have is home ownership. In all the time I've been playing I've always wanted a house but either through lack of botting, or lack of luck have never been able to obtain one. When they open up new wards its always so hopeful and exciting, then ultimately disappointing. I don't understand why it is a design choice to have a part of the game that is only accessible to 10% of the population. Would it really be so difficult to implement instance housing so everyone can have a house? They have the apartment system which is basically that. Why not expand the apartment system so you can upgrade it from apartment >> small >> medium >> large if you have the gil. The devs know there is nothing else to spend this pile of gil on in this game.

At this point I'm just logging in, seeing that I didn't get a house again and logging back out. I'll pop back in when the lottery opens back up. If this keeps up, I wont be sticking around for much longer.
