Been pretty good. Working more with schooling on the side to get better jobs and what not. Started reading again after finishing off A Dance with Dragons. About 4 books into Raymond E. Feist's Riftwar stuff, it's just too hard to stop reading it.
Been hanging around on Ultros with a bunch of people from FFXI. Got my PLD (naturally) and MNK to 50 but haven't enjoyed any of the other battle classes to really get them past 35 or so. Have all DoH and DoL at 50 which was fun to get through, although I'm not a fan of endgame crafting/gathering so nothing has any materia in it.
I'm hoping the crafting rebalance scheduled for 2.3 makes it less "Find your favourite flavour of broken macro and cross class skills" and more free flowing. Although having said that I really enjoy fishing so I might get around to going "Big Fishing!!" sooner or later. Funny the only gathering or crafting I really enjoy is the one that is essentially just a big time sink.
Working towards the housing right now. FC is at about 10mil and aiming for a medium Limsa house. So we have between 5-9mil left to go depending on which we go after. Hadn't really started saving until a little before 2.2 so we are moving along at a decent clip given a few people don't really farm gil and are just holding onto a mil for 1 big investment.
I imagine you'll be able to garden with the single player housing and we'll probably see a bunch of other stuff added just for that. I do hope they distinguish the two types of housing though. As opposed to just having FC housing and then "FC Housing-light" for people who are solo or want their own house. Maybe incorporate your retainers in some way, like it's a house where you live with them or something, that'd be nice.
I need to stop thinking about it because I'll come up with a million possibilities of what they could do and then they'll just be like "You can make a house shaped like a chocobo!" and I'll get really disappointed. I know how you work SE...
