Greetings everyone, this is Voltenyne from the Community team!

Today, I'd like to share a recap of our first episode of Mister Foxclon's Neighborhood, the housing tour series presented by Global Community Producer Toshio "Foxclon" Murouchi. The broadcast series aims to bring attention to the wonderful housing designs created by our player community, and we hope you found it enjoyable, or perhaps even inspirational for future ideas!

Here's the archive of the broadcast for those of you who haven't watched it yet!

Foxclon's Tips for Housing Tourists
At the beginning of the broadcast, Foxclon shared some helpful tips for those of us who also want to tour housing. These suggestions are simply based on his preferences; feel free to explore in the ways that best suit you!

In summary...
1. In the "Select Residential Ward" menu, the plots where the owner or Free Company's name is displayed in green are available for touring.
2. In the "Select Residential Ward" menu, the icons next to each plot indicate the tags the plot owners have selected for their housing, which can be helpful if you're looking to explore housing of a particular theme.
3. Simplify your gameplay UI as much as possible to get an unobstructed view!
4. Using a gamepad with Camera Speed (Stick) set to "0" may help alleviate motion sickness.
5. Adjusting the 3rd Person Camera Angle setting in the Character Configuration menu can help you get a closer look at the fine details!
