I didn't know where else to put this, but it's been rattling around in my brain for a few days, so I thought I'd share it out there in case someone wants to take the idea and run with it.Â It pretty much requires a dedicated Free Company with a house and Private Chambers.Â Â

Basically, Eorzea's First Mall.Â The main parts of the house could be the food court, entertainment venue, and kiosk-style merchants, while each Private Chamber could be a store or service.

I have weird ideas, I know.Â People might not even find the idea appealing, but I'm sharing it just to get it out of my brain-space.Â So there.Â XD

I love that idea~~

It's not that weird of an idea at all!

In fact, I figure it would be a great way to have a bunch of merchant characters of different professions and walks of life able to ICly explain why they all have their shops in one place. Plus, rather than having to fit whatever "theme" of the location is (like a tavern or bakery or what-have-you) or OOCly explain that their shop is actually in a wildly different location (what I did with Chachan's smithy for a while before actually landing a house for it), they're free to run whatever shop they desire.

It'd definitely be useful for those players who want to have their characters run their own shops but (understandably) can't really have their own location due to the housing limitations. And maybe even promote some inter-shop interactions since they'd all be in close proximity to each other ICly! Maybe get a price war or two going if a couple of the shops sell similar things. Laugh

There's a lot of potential here.

Mm-hmm!Â It would even be a good place for actual Omni-crafters and Gatherers to trade their wares and get some RP, instead of just tossing stuff up on the Marketboard.Â The use of Private Chambers would also help cut down on the chat spam, likely making it a much more hospitable environment for new RPers or those folks who get easily overwhelmed by large crowds.

I'd super like this idea!
