First, house guests need their own category. Not share with all the things using Special Furnishing category. Call it "House Guests" Make the limit very high! I have a keep house, that needs imo 200+ house guests present to make it feel lived inside. Is limited to 12 atm. This is.. awful.
Second, when is the feature coming for applying emote loops to house guests? I have tons of emotes, little use for them honestly. BUT, let me load an emote on a loop, onto a house guest? Now I'd collect ALL the emotes possible! And the value gain for emotes is hard to describe, but is intense.
