In the MMO Final Fantasy XIV, players are now allowed to build their own houses. However, there are no more building plots available on many servers.
It’s a bit like promising free beer and then telling people: The glasses are out. With Patch 2.38 players of Final Fantasy XIV can build houses themselves and no longer have to be content with a room in their guild house . The problem is: there are hardly any new plots. Only two wards. New residential areas were just introduced. And the current building plots are already occupied by the guild houses, the houses of the “Free Companies” in Final Fantasy XIV, on pretty well-visited servers (and those are almost all).
The producer Naoki Yoshida immediately rushed to the forum and apologized for the current circumstances: They were eager to bring this feature now, even if there are now clearly too few building plots on some servers. With Patch 2.4, they plan to double the total number of plots. Unfortunately, it cannot be said at the moment when the patch will come. However, they are aware of the players’ situation and are working as hard as possible to alleviate the precarious situation in the Eorzea real estate market.
