It's also worth noting that Wildstar tried to market a large portion of appealing content as 'hardcore' and 'exclusive' and it backfired massively to the extent that the developers have been forced to reconsider the core design of the game itself.
The bulk of modern MMO players aren't interested in artificial barriers. They want to log on, do the stuff they want to do and then log off. They've already waited a long time for player housing to be fully implemented. Extending that wait isn't going to go down well for reasons that really should be obvious at this point.
I'm not trying to mean here. I really enjoy FFXIV and I want it to succeed. That doesn't mean I have to keep my mouth shut and refuse to speak out when there's a bump in the road.
