(Large Housing Problem) 177 Bids on One House

[Veritas-Ancora]

We really need to address the supply and demand of large housing. Smalls are nowhere near this competitive and you've made no mention of the size of the buildings getting larger for Smalls/Mediums.

Not everyone is meant to get a large house.

It really is that simple.

I know yall hate that fact but it's the truth.

People on wow subreddit used to hate the rmt but you can see the trend shifting when most upvoted answer is "buy gold" and people condemning rmt are being downvoted and reported.
I agree with you Stormpeaks, but the problem is still not resolved when potential new players get to the game and see all mediums and larges are taken. If they want house, they are pressured to buy gil because the supply and demand creates fomo. Bid now or maybe in few months once some L vacates to repeat this bidding clownfest.

not to mention the famous 350$ shiro house drama. I can only guess there are groups that love to participate in bidding for more despite being owners already.

So says someone who... has a large house, if I'm not mistaken?

So me having a large house invalidates my opinion

Well, when you're saying "not everyone can have a large house and they need to accept it" but you already own one, then yes, somewhat.

That's a ridiculous take but sure, you do you lol.

What I said is not any less true.

People really need to get out of the habit of "Well, you got X, so your opinions as a person are worthless, since you have X".

That can easily be altered to fit any narrative and be just as infuriating. Should we not care about your opinion because you play a Hyur? Or because you're a black mage? Where does it end?

ALL opinions are valid and allowed to be shared. Promote discussion, not "no you're wrong cuz wrong" responses.

Either way, back on topic.. Them owning a large actually validates their opinion in this regard. Because they know the system. They've used it to get where they are. Why would that be a bad thing?

I hate to be that guy but: This. Pretty Much.

Trying to buy FC Large myself. Not at the end my tether yet... It's quite alright to plan and scout and wait for new round to start. Just in case the fortune aint kicking. And save save save more gil. I have more than one ticked in the game for what little edge it gives.

Why not, though? What's the reason people shouldn't be able to get exactly the house size they want if they have the gil for it? A new player who manages to save up gil for a Large shouldn't be punished for being new and all the Large plots being taken by vets. I'm perfectly happy with my Small in Ishgard but if someone is a decoration enthusiast, I can't see a good reason to gatekeep mansions.
