Sure, but also having non-instanced housing heavily favors those with more time and/or money. I played Arche Age during its initial launch, but I had to work during the time they released housing plots. By the time I was able to log on, the only available plots were out in the middle of nowhere, which sucked with the limited fast travel options. You also have FFXIV with its instanced housing districts, where on many servers, good luck trying to get a plot. Sure, you could join a FC who has a house and claim a room, but that's pretty lame compared to being able to design the whole house + surrounding yard.
