Remove FC housing entirely

[Xelanar]

Get rid of personal housing, or make it instanced. IMO it is too much of a niche feature to be denying players the experience of the housing system. Since FC housing offers it to multiple players it is more viable. Also give more incentives for people to use the houses. Buffs to crafting when in a certain area, or the accumulation of resting xp while still online (faster rate than offline). Getting people to congregate in a single location encourages social interaction which has already been proven to increase overall enjoyment of the game.

Why is removing things from other players THE thing you are asking for, instead of... maybe asking for a solution to the problem that benefits everyone? I am genuinly curious, because you are not the only one showcasing this approach, so there must be something I am missing.

Also adding more benefits to houses does come with a drawback. For example I'd rather craft anywhere I want without having to go to a specific place only to not miss out on a buff. Having to return to my house anytime I log out is also more inconvenient than just logging out in any rest location. I would rather have the exact opposite: As long as not everyone / every FC can have access to a house, no more benefits should be included to them, and existing benefits should be made accessible to everyone. This goes for gardening and airships / submarines, storage etc. Content should not be gated behind a restriction that is based on limited supply.

This whole thread is just some finest quality salt. There will be another batch tomorrow when the lottery finishes.

The "If I can't have a house, no one should have one!" energy is going through the roof right now. Hope everyone here won their plots! ♥

Well I own a medium house but I still think that personal houses were a mistake. But small houses are too small for FCs and we have way too many wards for FC only housing anyway...

The whole system needs a revamp, it is not possible to fix this mess anymore.

Maybe maybe not, doesn't mean we have to remove either personal or FC houses now

How nice of you to paint omnicrafters like me with a broad stroke regarding using FC resources including submarine voyages to make gil for myself. I put in all the work myself and spent countless hours gathering and crafting to get to where I am at now but you say my FC is fake and for reselling?????? How nice of you to assume my playstyle, do you stake outside my home irl and record my play sessions to accuse me of your nonsense?

Here, you can continue to cry while I /flex my omnicrafting prowess and yes, that's my PERSONAL mansion in the background too because I was smart enough to move to Dynamis to get a mansion for myself :3

Gonna accuse me of RMT or such nonsense now?

You wont lose FC stuff, you would just not use a spot on any of the wards and your FC House would be an instance donated by your grand company of choice and would change colors if you pick another one.

Goal with this is to plug the leak of obtaining multiple houses for fake FC's

Stop playing the victim card, would lose my medium FC house as well and get a 'hall' given by the Grand Company I am a part of instead for FC, makign it instanced and lockded down to leave the ward open for people that actually would like a house.

And you can still be an omni crafter? and also maybe you wont be able to cut so much profit because would need more chain supply lines, but being a crafter myself it is about making the system running around and in the end pay for itself... that does not mean I need to earn 50% on everything I make.. 10% or less would suffice, also with your insight into the game you can easy see for yourself that there is a problem, whether you like it or not, but staying in denial is in general bad.

Omnicrafter lost it's status when SE nerfed crafting. There was a time when you had to have all jobs at certain levels to be able to use certain skills. Thanks to SE dumbing crafting down, anyone can be an omnicrafter. Don't throw the term around like you're special.

That got a genuine laugh from me. And here I thought they were happy to see me.

I have a better idea. Remove Personal housing altogether. The FC house is were a number of my members congregate and it's nice to see people around, especially as we have 2 active neighbouring FCs that we are friends with. The personal wards and personal housing is dead. There's no one around in those wards.
