I agree in the sense that the current system will never have enough plots for every player, let alone every player that wants them. I don’t think we need to “retire” the wards, but I do think we need an instanced system created in addition to them. There needs to be something that addresses scarcity, both of a plot in general, and of size.

But I think the point of the thread is, this is what is available now. We can campaign for improvements here, since this is where the devs tell us to put our feedback. However, as far as we know, they have no housing plans for Dawntrail beyond the item limit increase and the “mirage” which remains to be seen exactly what that will do for interiors. Which means about a couple years, give or take, before we can really expect to see any further developments in housing. If you really want a house, and don’t want to wait literally years, this is your best shot. Judging by what’s still available after the first round, not a lot of people have made the move.

Now is housing just the “carrot on the stick” to get people to spread out and fill Dynamis? Will they look at more housing ideas and improvements after they consider it filled enough? It might take awhile if that’s the criteria they’re looking at, because only 2 of Dynamis’ original 4 worlds are really “full” at this point. When they’re all more or less full, and we come back and say “now what?” I guess then we’ll find out for sure if the scarcity is on purpose!
