Forcing players to compete for something that is highly desirable and pretty standard in the industry is just silly. It's not even their intention to force players to compete for a house of their own, they just haven't gotten around to upgrading the servers in order to handle the unexpected success of FFXIV.
It also spawns a toxic community with players placing themselves on a pedestal for being one of the lucky few to be able to log on at a specific time to purchase a house and then ramble about it being 'tough luck' that people with real life commitments at the time couldn't attempt the same thing.
There's no 'achievement' in logging on at a specific time and date. Nor is that something to applaud when it serves to poison the community.
