Concern Regarding the Ongoing Silence About the Promised Housing Update

[Yodada]

Unfortunately this is exactly what Batbrat wrote. All made so it gets you hyped and the product is almost never delivered. The sheer fact that they never mentioned housing during LL just shows that they have forgotten it or left it into abyss so we can expect housing update to come in like April/May 2026 or something. Or hell maybe: "just wait 8.0 guys, the graphic updates and Mahjong voices were too harsh on our cost".

They really need to fix the damn housing system because it's outrageous and plenty of servers don't have a single plot to buy. When I came to Alpha server from Chaos, we had plenty of housing. Specially since new wards opened. So my friend and I managed to get 2 mediums next to each other in Goblet. A few months later, you see a lot more people from Chaos coming in and transferring because Chaos is mega dead for anything reasonable. So housing problem arrives and now even small ones are hard to catch. Meanwhile nobody wants to go and have a house on a dead server / DC.

Now for single medium house, we have 70+ entries and don't let me even talk if they are FC house. it's even more. Another issue is that bots maintain these houses by a lot. Specially when large ones / mediums (best spots) open. There will be tons of bots competing. So good luck winning against that. Then they will sell those accounts with specific plots just to RMT and a lot of sub free money for RMT.

Yet Square doesn't have intention to fix this. Their solution is to increase interior space but then there's no sign of this coming. I don't know how this will go but it's pretty terrible game state.

Just wait for the EU Auto Demo which starts with 7.3. After that there will be plenty of plots.

What was this "housing update" supposed to entail? Or was it just a "Hey we're doing something with housing, wait and see."? Genuinely didn't see or hear anything about it, granted I don't bother looking at housing stuff much at all anymore.

For one, the increase of item slots,
for another, the ability to change the interior layout/size (S-L) regardless of the plot you purchased.

OHHH. Right I do remember something about that. Huh. Yeah they really haven't said anything about it yet, have they.

I don't buy that they got to many tasks, then it would be hiring in more staff and take a chance for a while, the game has the full potentials to earn it in or sustain itself + bringing in massive profits on top of it, but it requires getting on track with current issues a lot, one of them is those things that has been postponed for too long.

And if that then means we would be getting the half amount of extra content to do, then that would be a huge leap as well.
