CURSES. T_T I have to choose Elezen!? ... ((/racist perfectly!)) j/k. I wanted to do Hyur but I guess I'll always ICly Fantasia it. ;D ...if I could really.

That actually sounds pretty cool! I'll try to work it out and modify it based on your idea. I think it will definitely fit with the lore now But yeah of course, I'll keep the whole WHM on low profile in public especially Gridania. *cough*

Wouldn't someone literally be telling her to not reveal that she knows white magic due to the history changes? To this character, she'd know nothing but her own abilities and her names, but she doesn't remember what exactly happened. Sleeping in a dormant state for centuries can happen with conservation by magic at any terms. Which is why I kind of asked if it's even possible to really have a white mage character in a story as long as you make it original.

I am trying to make a character who is sleeping in a void embryo inside the Lost City of Amdapor, but when couple of characters visit the place - the embryo tends to break, and the girl happens to be in a dormant sleeping state who does not remember anything that has happened to her, but her only existence and her abilities show that she is clearly a white mage. Would this plot be even valid and legit enough that I can actually create a white mage? I am rather curious and no, this is not a troll question because I am highly convinced that I want to make a white mage character in a sense that it supports it.

In my ideals of business and consumer, I always had this ideal: "You can't satisfy everyone. They all have different opinions , but you try to do your best to satisfy and provide as much as possible. 50% will like it but 50% hate it. Sometimes you make something for people and even if 30% are upset about your product, you have to look at 70% who are happy and doesn't want change and try to stick with 70% to make them happy and choose your company and your product again"

God , I remember when SEGA ignored all fans about PSO2 NA for two years straight as well as Blade and Soul, yet no one talks about that... And also how Sony said they'd release UMD converter for PSPGo owners and they completely disregarded it and never answered properly. But for FFXIV 1.0 there were more complaint than this too. Now it's all about housing because there weren't enough plots for everyone or at least how Yoshida "lied" about not making it personal housing area only (or have a lot of wards). It's been like only a week since it first launched and people are losing their minds, and the game has existed for only a year and housing existed for only 9 months. Not to add, personal rooms were implemented like about a month or two ago... How much do we need to demand a lot for us to be satisfied? It's been accomplished for short time and yet people are still not happy. Some games like WoW are -now- adding Garrison system when game has existed for like over 10 years and no one said anything about housing decorations or systems. Is waiting for another year or so to implement stuffs into this game such a big deal? If we get everything at once , people will get tired of the game in the end because devs put everything in the game . Also did I mention that first housing for FC was 210-230 million Gil for large plots in Sargantas and Balmung on first patch and everyone were yelling at Yoshida about it saying he's an "idiot" for thinking people have that much? Like small plots were 20+ million and the room was small as hell before they added basement.

Anelia had to deal with many things recently past this week, and she realized that she has not had enough sleep ever since Crows case and Lazarov case was brought into attention. The worst part was, how her career as a Sultansworn can come to an end should she disobey Sultana and Syndicate's orders on aiding Natalie and Coatleque to pursue Nero Lazarov. Even from the last night, Anelia didn't really sleep but stare at the window outside to wonder what she has to do. Then also, a letter came to her two nights ago where her own foster father who took her into the noble of Ul'dah thirteen years ago is now extremely ill on his bed; possibly passing away at anytime soon. 'Seems like I ran into a big mess than before... I can't get out of it this time, and I'll have to make a final decision. Whichever the path I choose, will have a great impact on the opposite side for someone to resent me forever... or even lose my career or life for this. She wants to help Roen, but she realizes that will affect Order in the end. She shuts her eyes really tight and breaths heavily and shudders thinking about how she is involved in a fight with her comrades and friends. The man wanted to speak to her about her secrets. About her bloodline and her true identity. 'It seems that you've found out about your bloodline, Anelia. I need to speak with you before I take my last breath. Please bring any friends if you wish, at least they should be aware of who you are.' -Ivolt Thavius Anelia writes a letter to certain people who she can trust to show up in her foster father's estate, and hoping that they'd attend for his final words and proceed with the funeral right away. A lot is going in her mind, and she is not even sure if she belongs to Sultansworn due to these pressure. She closes her eyes, and finishes her last letter by sealing it inside the envelope.

If I talked about Phantasy Star Online 2 about their lies comparing to this, it is really a complete different level about what is really a lie and what is really vague. To answer your question where I've bolded and underlined, they finally reveal their greatest excuse of calling off the personal housing-only based instance, and that is... Yoshida basically had this statement during TGS: I will say, after what he said right up here - I respect him a lot. Honestly, this was my biggest fear for everything where people will just never bother to join FC at all or contribute of helping each other out to build a FC house or airship (in the future). I honestly think it was a sudden change to their agenda, where Yoshida WAS indeed planning for a personal housing only area, and he probably thought "Oh wait, then no one else will ever visit FC houses anymore." But evidently, it's not a complete loss where he said "We decided to drop the personal housing thing". It was really more of "We installed it together instead." - and the biggest disappointment to the community was "not enough wards and plots for players to buy it" - Which is TRUE because you know, Balmung is just one of those ridiculously populated server that will gain more players and have lesser plots. I won't deny that. Was it a good decision for him to do this? 50/50 for me. Because while I agree with his statements, I do feel unfortunate for other players who couldn't get the personal plot (including myself to buy a small one) it just happens that I have to look at their views too.

Thanks for twisting my words, because no where did I actually write or imply people to "shut up". Just because I said "wait for the possible change" means DOESN'T LITERALLY MEAN I AM TELLING YOU TO SHUT UP. It mean not EVERYTHING is hopeless. The houses back in small plot FC wards were dropped down to 1.5 million gil and you could have purchased it and use it as a personal house for yourself if that's the case. Thats what I did temporarily since it was so cheap. I am pretty sure the thread is: Personal Housing Thread 2.0, not "personal housing complaints thread". Which means it is right to talk to people to "please be patient" or even "it's not completely hopeless". It's been only a week since 2.38 and this whole argument and getting worked up between RPC players is not going to be nice. And no, I have my own reason to believe that the patch was fair to some aspects and I just consider it as a "tip of the iceberg" or even "beta testing" to see how fast the personal houses would be taken. Now they -know-, so they are probably adding more wards. They were going by the previous charts of how fast the plots were taken from Ward 1-7 from FC so they probably WEREN'T expecting that players really had that much money in 20 minutes. It's only been a week. If 2.4 came out and they only had 2 wards up, then I would be annoyed too. But even if Yoshida lied, I wouldn't really be concerned to quit the game because there are other things to do. THAT IS WHAT I SAID. All I said was just be patient. I wrote in English (despite that English is 2nd language to me), I clearly wrote it in a decent moderate manner to encourage players to look at the positive way than be disappointed. You completely make it sound like I am telling you to shut up, NO. I did not. I never said it.

I really really hope you guys didn't think I was telling you all to "shut up" or "leave the game", because that is not my actual focus in point there. If you feel that I was saying it that way, then I don't know what to say because that's just twisting my words. All I said was "be patient, and wait". And to some people, it's like being heard as "no one cares if you complain. Stop whining and deal with it." No one should start any personal attacks. Which is why I made that post before saying that I was fed up with it just because -someone- disagrees with you, doesn't mean one should start attacking and throwing insults.

What is your definition of plenty? Because it seems to me to be very odd. Consider that Balmung has 30,000 (roughly) players. Then consider how many houses we have, even after the wards are doubled. It can be plenty or not plenty. There could be 3 wards or 8 or 16 for 2.4, or more wards in the future. I find Personal Housing (Even FC housing) to be the longest term project from developers for players in this case. It's not limited edition where wards will eventually stop and people can't really buy any single plot what-so-ever. We are only at 2.4 version here, and they are slowly adding and implementing it. If they haven't added new wards for like 6-12 months, then that's an issue. But it isn't. They are adding them in slowly, and it has been showing signs that it's happening. They are also probably adding more wards anyways for Ishgard housing area and also for Gold Saucer and airship etc. I mean, if airships are going to be limited - it'll come down to that point that players will complain about that instead. From my experience of every games by fans, are that fans will never be satisfied about what is given to them. It's like if someone requested the chef to cook something special, and the chef cooked something for that person, it is likely that 50% of that chance - the customer will say "That is not what I asked for and you didn't deliver it".

*sighs* I really really don't like it when someone is actually making this into personal and start insulting others to a point that this thread will be closed ... AGAIN. (at least 6 threads regarding housing has been closed due to your constant attacks and complaints) I don't know what your problem is. Really. I am so fed up with you trying to insult me from the first housing discussions when I clearly said it is fair for FC to gain their house over personal house because all MMO games require guilds to be priority over single player because that is how you make a community and enjoy games with friends. The game has not lied to me. The interface, combat system, and beginner friendly system has been ALL implemented to 2.0 as Yoshida promised. New class has been promised. It's not Musketeer, but Ninja is cool too. New dungeons always come up every new patch when some new patches in other MMORPG don't give you new dungeons until the NEW expansion. There's not even new story really or events that happen every month or seasonally. The housing appeared with ridiculous prices and personal rooms in the FC house appeared. It wasn't a lie, they all came out as promised. This patch released personal housing as promised. Just not enough for people to buy the plots. There will be lies, but I've not seen Yoshi-P and FF14 devs actually lie as much as other gaming dev team did. They have done their best to this point to keep their fans be satisfied. All I said was "wait and hope that it'll change", and all I've also said was "he isn't completely wrong and he's trying his best". But instead, I get an insult and uncivilized talk toward me. Really? You are a veteran player of FF14 and RPC, and you should be at least have the ideal of being friendly and tell members to calm down and be patient - but instead you make weird assumptions that the prices were going to be down, and you are slamming down on people who are trying to tell others to just be patient? "people like you" is very far stretched, and the game isn't going bad. These are the main reasons I wanted to play FF14 before this housing idea came up: I liked FF14 concepts and lores and the graphics. I played 1.0 but the reason I quit was I really hated losing XP and LVL like FF11 and it felt too similar to me and the limit on amount of hours I can play to gain lvl seemed silly. I like the combat system, dungeons, FATE, and the raids that they have given to me. It's challenging, and yet fun. (I havent done dungeons in a while because of RP, but yes - that is the MAIN reason I do like this game.) Class systems are very open than any other games. I like it. End of story. Roleplaying with people were the main reason I like the game. Like whole events kept me enjoying all the time. Housing was my least concern because I knew myself that I had to earn money for myself since no one in my FC besides my friends in Gilgamesh wanted to save. We all ripped people off by selling philo items for 50-60k everyday doing endless dungeons to farm for the stones and then we gathered enough, and when they quit they gave me all of their Gils and I went to Balmung (They only quit because they wanted to play other games. I dont know when they will return). but as for myself, I did the same thing in Balmung selling it for ridiculously expensive and still earned a lot and then joined in Titan HM teams to earn gils that way. Then I started selling more items and did hunts as Ellaria. Aside from the point, I avoided a lot of RP during those times and did endless farmings and I got here now. That's not the reason I came here to talk in the thread. I came to this thread that it's not the end for them to close the book and conclude that they won't listen or lie to us. Who knows if they lie or not? They haven't really shown 2.4 yet, so why judge now? But seriously, please do not include me as "people like you", because I surely don't want this game to go bad but I don't want to expect that housing is the only reason I play this game because I feel like I paid 79.99 and ($15.00) per month for nothing. I find myself something else to do everyday at FF14, and that is making new friends and I am very satisfied where I am. All these complaints are nothing but negative energy and it's dragging everyone down. So I suggest that at least have yourself one more chance to have a faith than keep saying "He's gonna lie" "It's never gonna happen".

Well he -did- say wait for 2.4, so let's all kind of wait and see. But my best bet is he will release 3-4 wards... But I can be wrong. At this point, I am just taking grain of salt and leave it to his words because he didn't 100% lie like the way people worded it.

I wanted to agree with you, but I will flat-out murder someone if I'm not playing Smash on Oct3. Disclaimer: Not really gonna murder anybody. Probably. Imagine I was the one who took that last copy from you D: .... Though I won't play Smash until like later time. I have too many games to get and play.

While I agree with you, but the patch -just- came out. It was small and it was gone within 2 hours. But why can't we just be patient for everything? Do you need the housing really that bad right away? This is like iPhone 6 thing too. Do you REALLY need it right away for first day of launch? Everything will eventually come up as time passes by, the housing prices will go down and there will be plenty of plots available in the future. It requires patience and time, this is just like 1st phase of personalxFC housing wards. It was estimated to be limited. Edit: At LEAST he isn't making excuses like saying "We didn't see this coming" like many games out there. (One of them was Archeage NA where they have server issues now) and SimShitty 2013, and D3 etc. His excuse is legit and true enough that it's unavoidable to counter his argument. Too much personal housing can give FC houses gain cobwebs and dusts in the future.

Kage, this was from your other link for TGS where I found to be pretty interesting information to at least let fans know that he isn't literally ignoring people but is trying his best. This personal housing thing JUST came out. But yeah what that statement said above, I agree with him a lot.

Again, it is not something to strangle about. If housing or creating castle is such a deal for any terms, Archeage has better option for that. But I played Archeage since Korean open beta and also through this NA version, I don't really like it. So Yoshida lied. But how long are we going to drag this down and get mad about it? He said he'll double the wards from current ones. Just wait. Also he is right 100% about one thing: why should people have cheaper personal house when it's obvious that people will never go to free company house should everyone can afford large ones and invite their friends to hang out? And no matter how angry we maybe , there are things that won't change. So ranting a lot about it in this forum especially won't give attention to square Enix. It's a waste of breath. In the end , it just comes down to playing other games, like ArcheAge. Heck, even blade and soul doesn't even have personal room or housing. Or even PSO2 has housing. It has a terrible room customization. I feel that paying for small plot for 4-6 m and 30m for medium is perfectly fair in my opinion.

I wanted to go really bad but I didn't have money for this year. hope I can go for next year at least!

:'C You know, this game doesn't primarily focus only on housing they are working on new classes, new dungeons and new stories every patch so they are trying to put everything. It's just that they just didn't see housing to be such an issue as they expected because they voted for new job/class demands than personal housing. They can only go so far for what they can do for players. Also mostly the housing is nice but it's purpose is for role playing purpose aside from crafting, gardening, and storaging. But balmung and Gilgamesh are the only servers that role play than other server so to the devs, they probably don't want to only look at two servers over all other servers when they asked for something else at that time. If you look at the Q&A for all live letter, there were like barely any people asking about personal housing and most of the people who asked those questions were really from balmung or Gilgamesh. Most of them asked about new jobs and new dungeons and new coil.

ANELIA IS NOT FOR SALE! D:< I said this already!
