Housing reductionsFollow

#1 Feb 14 2014 at 10:41 AM Rating: Excellent
Hi all,

I asked this also on another forum, but was hoping for some good insight.

I have a very small FC and we were looking to purchase FC housing. When housing was added we managed to save up around 5.5 million gil. At the time small houses were 7 to 8 million.

Now that most small houses are around 2-3 million we have more than enough for a small FC house, but no where close to enough for a Medium sized house.

My question is: Do you believe there will be any reduction for Medium sized houses in the future?

I need to toss up if we should just get the small shack or keep plugging away at a medium house.

Thanks for any input.

I believe Yoshi-P said he'd reveal more about housing price adjustments toward the end of this month. I'd expect everything to continue getting cheaper, but we'll learn soon if any significant price drops are coming.

Yeah, I'd wait until 2.2... The small houses will have their main floor size doubled and a basement equal to the main floor will be added, offering nearly 4x the original size. Then the prices will be lower and you can really make a decision. Right now, small houses are broom closets and imo are not worth it.

I did not know about this. Any idea when it was mentioned? I looked as best I could and only found notations on small housing price reductions with a "We'll look into it later" for other pricing.

Ah Found it! Thanks again for pointing this out.

Housing also received a nod during the broadcast, with Yoshida stating that housing prices should be at their lowest value by the end of February. They will re-evaluate the prices at that point. Additionally, small size houses will receive an underground basement addition in the future, doubling their size. This is to allow for players to be able to build craft airships inside their homes as was promised in the past by Yoshida.

I also read somewhere that small house sizes would be doubled IN ADDITION to basements being added...

From the recent live letter:

I'd also like to talk a bit about small houses. Plans have been made for the future so you can create an underground workshop, as well as build airships and boats, and there have been questions as to whether it will be possible to do these things with small houses. I'd like to assure you all that there will be no difference in what you can do regardless of your house's size. Obviously the underground workshop can't be seen from outside, but there will be sufficient space in the workshop even for small houses. Also, we're aware that many players feel the small size house is too small to be shared with free company members and have avoided purchasing them, so we're looking into expanding small size houses in patch 2.2 or shortly after that. A basement room will be added and floor space doubled, with the ability to build an underground workshop underneath this basement space. For a 7 or 8 person free company, this size will be much more accommodating, so please consider purchasing a small size house knowing that it will be more spacious with the coming update.

Nice! So this isn't just a basement addition, but a basement and a dungeon!
