Auto Demolition on EU and NA

[PaulusHamsteru]

Why hold a multi-billion dollar corperation responsible for it's product when you can blame the customers for the product they have payed for.

FTFY. Their market cap is $8.4 billions.

Yes it needs to be back on.
As long as it remain a finite resource then, those who do not make use of it really have no reason to horde it.
Until SE fix this issue either adding instant housing for those who do not care for neighbours or change apartments to what a house would be

[BunnyBrat]

What do you get out of housing that you need so badly? I legitimately want to understand.

[Zukkii]

I think the demolition is still on due to there still being a war being fought in Ukraine.

Instead of reactivating auto-demolition, they should finally make housing instanced. It's long, long, loooong overdue.
This would be a win-win for both those who don't have a house yet but would like to have one, and the people who are being held hostage by the timer.
But of course, this has been requested time and time again for years, and nothing has happened yet. Just like hats for Viera/Hrothgar, it might never happen. Sooo..yeah...

Personally, I don't really care about the timer. I'm quite content with my apartment for now. /shrug

Agreed. Ward housing pretty much requires auto-demo, because otherwise new plots would never open up outside of new districts being added! Which is why it came about in the first place: players demanded it.

Instanced could be added in addition to the wards, guaranteeing everyone a housing plot that would never need to be taken away, while allowing those who still prefer the ward system to continue with the lottery game. Other MMOs that are older than XIV have had instanced housing, allowing the collection of multiple properties with greater variety, without even requiring a subscription, to nip that argument in the bud.

And as we got a taste of with Island Sanctuary, instanced offers features that aren’t possible in the wards, like a much higher outdoor item placement limit, the furniture glamour system, being able to change the ground/landscape elements independently of the buildings, and open air buildings. If the cabin had been an actual housing plot instead of the mammet base of operations, it could have been a real alternative to ward housing. It would be nice if they learned from that and gave some kind of instanced housing out of Cosmic Exploration…

What they need to do is give us instanced housing.

Just wait for WoW housing to come online. I foresee many new plots opening up in FF14 once that happens.

Lol, I’ve been playing WoW for 10 years, and you still take everything they say without questioning it?
Maybe you should take a look at this parody below — it might give you a different perspective.

Auto demolition has resumed on NA. It just hasn't been long enough for most things to demo.https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...65106a6642f64e
