FFXIV Housing Partitions

Dear SE, please give us new Partition solution,

Currently, we don’t have many choices with Partitions. It is very limited. And most of the time, it does not match well or even go along with the Wallpaper (Interior Wall).

Would it be possible if you, for example, invent a new way for making a Partition. I would like to suggest that you add a new recipe “Custom Partition” in the game. If you want it to be challenging, you can make up a story of a side quest, introducing an excellent interior designer NPC who gives out the quest to unlock this special recipe. Recipe could be level 50 or 60 and is universal (available for any craft class, just like the dye pots).

After crafting this partition, adventurer can pair it up with an Interior Wall of their desire, and trade them both to the NPC, and he or she will merge them together to form a specific design of the “Custom Partition.” It will become, for example, “Custom Partition: Wavy Interior Wall” which can be differentiate easily by players when they see the item. The item icon can, and should, show the pattern of the interior wall it is made of.

This can be yet another unlockable function, where players are required to finish some tasks to make the NPC available for the trading.

While you are at it, I would also like to suggest you to add more Interior Walls. Currently, there is no perfect wall to match with Oriental Partition. One of the latest additions of Interior Wall, Wavy Interior Wall DID look quite oriental, but the pattern is too cluttered and does not fit that well with Tatami Flooring. Even if I choose some of the currently “Orientalish” Partitions and Interior Wall that have wooden colour and design, the colours still don’t go well with Oriental Partition, and makes the combination an ugly mismatch. An Oriental Interior Wall, Oriental Monochrome Interior Wall, Oriental Plain Interior Wall, for example, and perhaps a Bamboo Interior Wall, will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
A housing enthusiast.
