Old Housing idea Thread...show yourself!

[Nahara]

I want a wall-mounted weapon frame or rack like the one behind Minfillia's desk that holds Louisoix's broken staff.

It would be cool if we could place an unused Relic weapon or something inside it and put it on display (while still being able to retrieve it, of course).

I remember that during the early days of 1.0 there was video snap shots of a event where Tanaka release footage of co-op crafting inside of your freecompany house.

One screenshot has two lalafells crafting a huge cake, like a wedding cake. Another screenshot showed a player crafting an actual boat. Now I'm not sure if it was a airship or a boat because it just had the frame of the boat being built. But I would love for this to not be scrapped and used in the game. Please SE!

please make it happen SE.

Q. At the Ebisu event back in September we saw what looked like group crafting – where a group appeared to jointly craft a cake. What can you tell us about that?

A. Yoshida-san indicated that he wants to keep developing this system, but its priority is still to be decided. He went on to joke that he needs to address how the cake would be used before addressing how the cake was made.

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but I as wondering about individuality and FC usage. Many players dont want to invest into their own private house, but would rather just contribute to a FC mansion/great hall type of thing. But still, even if they do this, would it be possible (assuming memory isnt an issue) to have a door in the FC house that leads to each member's own private chamber. Basically, an instance within an instance type of thing (instanception!) that way a player would be able to customize a private room of their own, without interfering with the decor of the FC itself, or breaking their own bank by having to invest into their own small house just for that want.

Also, unrelated, since you guys are putting in Primal furniture items for decor..I have a request.

DEMON WALL!

Best security defense system ever!

I apologize if this has already been covered!

I would absolutely love the ability to craft within the house. One of my favorite aspects from FFXI (whether by design or not) is that Jeuno is a central gathering place, and that's where a lot of just fun "hanging out" occurs. With FFXIV ARR, there are so many people, and with duty finder it's rare to just be "standing around", so being able to craft within housing would be a perfect reason to hangout there and have fun interactions with friends

PICTURE FRAMES!
(No idea how difficult this would be to implement)
With so many picturesque screenshots I've taken, I'd LOVE to be able to upload these directly to the game somehow, and what better place to showcase these than in the house by hanging them on the walls!

Hello!

There are definitely some really great and fun ideas in this thread. I'm happy to hear everyone is looking forward to housing so much!

To boost your excitement even more, check out some of the furniture we have planned! (Though, please understand I can't promise these will be implemented right away.)

• A strategy board that really gives your house the feeling of a Free Company headquarters
• A jukebox that can play various songs
• Iconic FINAL FANTASY items
• Mannequins
• Aquariums
  …and much more!

We're planning to add a lot of different things moving forward, and we hope you are all looking forward to having fun with housing.

A jukebox....this is what i was waiting for in a game with housing for EONS! props to you DEV team!

Yes, good idea, but.....
it will only be able to play FF music

So much for Headbangers Ball in Drg AF in FC House..lol

A lot of stuff in here has already been mentioned

I feel like some people that don't know what has been mentioned already will see housing release with "their ideas" even though they're already being thought of. And then they'll be like. AH! Square Enix listened! lol. Can't wait for housing.

is not as much as taking credit for an idea, but is good to know players and developers share the same mindset, and that is very important!

Waste of time. Reduces overall excitement for game.
