Housing/Manor System

[Punainen]

Super awesome idea. Do want. Plus crafters can build furniture for your house. And maybe we can get more customization. Weavers can make rugs/curtains/tableclothes. Leatherworkers can make rugs and 'hunting trophies'. Blacksmith can make gardening/farming tools.
We should not have pots like in XI, but fields for our crops/trees. Stables for cattle, coups for birds.

You should be able to leave it all alone for a while without anything devastating happening for a while (lets assume a retainer will feed/water your farm, but if you want to HARVEST anything, or have anything genuinely progress, then you need to show up every now and then.

Maybe your animals and plants can have 'levels' depending on how well you take care of them, and increase their yield.
So if you show up regularly and take care of the farm yourself, the yield will get bigger. But if you neglect it and leave your retainer to care for it instead, then the yield will be significantly lower.

Absolutely no dying/running away plants/animals... I HATED that stuff about XI. I'd be forced to leave my game for a week and then my chocobo will have run away... I take a single day break from the game and all my plants are dead. That stuff was lame as hell. This being a more casual-friendly game should reward you for effort, yet not punish you for neglect.

i'm planning to design my place

That would be one more step toward a FINAL FANTASY-style Second Life. I support the idea.

I wasn't thinking about that, more about Harvest Moon TBH, but I see your point and I agree. It's all about customization and have a real feeling of identity in the game, don't you agree?

If they did that? I would never leave my manor lol. Sounds like a great idea, make beast master a DoW but give them the ability to tame animals for their manor. Would be epic.

This was done in FF11 except only with plants you had to take care of.

So Im totally up for SE to improve on what they did and make this happen

Totally can't wait to see what the Devs have planned for the housing system... I've seen Aion's player housing system and Runescape's Clan Housing System... both look nice but they have no personal Moogle that is traditional to the FF series.
