I just wanted to throw in my own vent over my disappointment..
I am in a very small FC, and we worked hard to save up money to get a house. We missed out the last patch they released wards because we were too late in the day to login, so this time we got up when the patch was released only to find out that there were people that were just way faster than us and by the time the patch was downloaded/installed and we logged in, all small lots were gone. As many others before me have stated, there is a serious balance issue between the plots they give small servers and large servers. They really should give the large ones more; it just makes more sense.
Honestly, I'm not all that interested in the housing aspect, all I want is access to Chocobo Raising. That's it. It's a big reason I even got interested in FFXIV and got my boyfriend and all my friends to join it. It's my entire character background. And I really don't want to leave my FC, as I've worked hard to build it up from the bottom, but unless we're lucky with Patch 2.4 or they decide to make chocobo raising more accessible, I guess I'm out of luck. And that sucks. I'm willing to buy stuff I need for chocobo raising from the market board (after all, I went ahead and purchased all the fruits I need to dye my bird the color I want) as long as I can actually you know, raise them somehow.Â
So I totally sympathize with everyone who is venting here... we all got screwed in one way or another by poor planning and lack of communication.Â
*group hug*
