They need to look at XI, give everyone instanced housing and mog gardens!

Don't worry the tariffs is gonna make lesser NA players playing the game due to increased price on the subscriptions that is coming.

"The automatic housing demolition timer for Worlds in the North American Data Center, which was halted temporarily in January 2025, will resume on Friday, June 6, 2025 at 1:00 a.m. (PDT)"



ARE YOU KIDDING ME???? With the amazing feedback we're wearing about World of warcraft housing and that was your Response???

How Blind can you be...

Maybe don't let your sub lapse if you are so afraid

[Hallarem]

Very relevant to complaints in general. But If someone says "Just quit" or "Unsubscribe" sure! Valid approach.

BUT you also have the right to complain if you are paying a MONTHLY FEE to play

Tarrifs have nothing to do with digital products .educate yourself

If you are consistently paying sub fees then you have nothing to worry about is my point

While with tech today, you can, on demand open and remove instances dynamicly and it can even be automatic.
Say you have 4 shards, when shard 4 reach 90% occupation, create shard 5, when shard 5 is 90% busy, create 6...
When 1 2 3 has empty spots, lock 4, 5, 6 so people fills 1 2 3... then unlock again.

While we are stuck with SE manually opening and closing channels with patches.

When housing was first discussed, this is how Yoshida claimed it was going to work. We were also supposed to be able to grow our house, add towers and add features via GC seals and ranks, FC and personal homes were supposed to be in their own wards, etc. None of the features they told us about made it into the final product. Which is why he never talks about upcoming features anymore, so many things were never put into a lot of things in the beginning and they simply will not acknowledge any of it. So we don't get news about something until its 100% to be added now so he doesn't have to answer hard questions. I used to have a list of everything we told us we were getting but didnt, I have no idea wheere that list is anymore tho

They just decided to use houses as a feature to keep people subsribed to the game.
Cheaper and more efficient than developping a whole gameplay loop around housing.

They also planed on making the balcony accessible and the door at the first floor usable lol
