I wish we could buy an empty plot to build our own castle.

These would be great structural pieces:

Castle wall with door, including the two towers to either side.



Castle tower with stairs inside leading up to a room on the top floor. It would have entries to different floor levels like Pantherfang Chapel towers with stairs.


Basically, all of the outside majestic pieces that came together to make Castle Skingrad.

I do not wish to buy a pre-built structure. I want the enormous castle pieces to build my own castle with my layout design inside.

The most important part is to have windows that can look outside. Transparent windows for structural pieces, please. Or BIG windows that open and close like doors.

This as a wall structural piece with the window's glass being removed:

Pretty please make this window in a floor to ceiling version. On a stone wall.

• The height of the wall should match the existing Colovian castle walls.
• The width of the wall should end just on either side of the window. This way, we can place several of these windows close to one another.

Again, no glass. Keep the black metal pattern, but remove the glass so we can see outside.

Edit: Making sure devs understand I am asking for a modular structural furnishing. Not for the windows that are part of already existing buildings to be changed.

What are your general thoughts on the new houses (Shattered Mirror Isle & Castle Skingrad)?

Castle Skingrad- This house is massive and have a ton of rooms. More than I think players need. There is not much building to do in that location though. Which limits Creativity.

Shattered Mirror Isle- Looks absolutely Gorgeous. There is plenty of open space that players can use to do their own build that would take advantage of unique environment.

What do you think of the new furnishings?

Think they look pretty good. No complains.

What do you think of the new weather control furnishing, Kynareth's Icon of Storm Control?

The weather is awesome and every house should have weather control. It will just add to the creativity housing builds. Especially for RP communities.

Did you run into any issues using Kynareth's Icon of Storm Control?

No


As for my general feedback

1) Can we get the option to remove the buildings comes with the location? The environment in some home locations are beautiful, but its hard to create our own home designs when most of the space is occupied. My two favorite house and are Coldharbour Surreal Estate and Moon-Sugar Meadow. I love these homes because they are open and i have a lot of space to work with in build some new and unique.

2) Can we get the ability to resize items? I understand giving us more furnishing slots is not easy and probably wont happen. However, maybe the ability to double or triple the size of housing items could at least allow for bigger builds.

3) Furnishing items from leads. The lead drops from treasure maps is extremely frustrating. It's RNG to acquire treasure maps. The lead drops are also RNG. And to get the ability to purchase the scribed furnishing item from the vender, requires finding all the leads 3 times. I think its too much and discourages players from trying to attain the furnishing item.

4) Can deconstruct crafted housing items please? That ability will make housing more affordable and accessible. There is a reason players say housing is the true end game. Housing is not accessible to new players and I wish this community and aspect of the game will get more players. Even if another skill line is needed.

5) Can we get these things as housing items please?

That castle, would get it even if it was 21k (Hopefully it is not that)

It is going to be an absolute nightmare for anyone to furnish given it looks to be even larger than Pantherfang Chapel which is an already extremely large castle home

I haven't tried every house but I only see rain in Tamriel proper houses...like in Glenumbria or Reapers March. I didn't see any rain/stormy effect in any otherworld home like Psijic Villa, Shadow Queen, or new Shattered Mirror homes.

Still no roofs, stone ceilings zzz or castle bits (ramparts, gates etc). Be nice to get a colovian stone staircase and the brown tile colovian floor.
The Colovian gazebo is nice, but I’d prefer the small square watch tower ones on the outskirts of skingrad vineyards.

No idea why, or if it might be an issue that will be fixed in some upcoming revision (doubt it), but I could not get the weather control to do anything in Hundings.

I don't see it in the new features of the U45... But I would have liked the Colovian throne to be added, at least as an exclusivity of Castle Skingrad... The simple Colovian armchair in the throne room is weird..





I also find the absence of colovian desks (noble and green) quite problematic.

So cool to make castle Skingrad a player home, even though it breakes a bit with the story (where does the actual count live?).
What is a bit wasteful in my opinion is that you don't get the view over the city and the guards here by default.

I would probably make this part of the courtyard a bit higher and give it the same type of wall as on the other side.

Colovian Gazebo looks amazing. Hope you can buy the plan from Rollis Hlaalu.

The shortcut from the bedroom to the cellar seems a bit bugged, a least I had trouble entering from some angle.

Count Calantius likely lives in his office.
and the Colovian Gazebo seems to be exclusively available in the Housing Editor for Crowns

The new “ayleid wall, thin” is slightly curved and I don’t understand why. Its curve doesn’t match any platform or any other furniture. Is there a reason for this? To me, it feels like it will be difficult to use as it is. IMHO it should be either straight, or much curved (to fit the new round platform for example).

There is a significant bump in quality of these newer furnishings, in all categories. Congratulations to the teams involved!
I am following the housing game since the beginning, and it seems this year is the most promising at least for housing.

I am glad to see so many versatile structural furnishings, also quite large, which can be used to build large projects, or can save a lot of slots. I am also a big fan of structural furnishings with openings, like gratings or openings. Can't wait for walls that have a round opening. I hope the team has plans to revisit the old styles with the retexturing process. Many people wish for the Summerset delicate structural furnishings. I am hoping to see Dwemer (dark themed) structural furnishings.

I totally love the jubilee themed furnishings. You can see that most of them are not retextures, but new creations. Great news!

Regarding the new houses, while I appreciate the effort made, I think it is time for a new empty flat terrain place for housing. There are more and more structural furnishings added, and we could build our own castles/buildings etc. Ah, and I find the recent castles, the Gonfalon Bay and Skingrad houses, to be confusing to navigate through. I appreciate the castle is a recreation of the one from TES4, but it still has to be practical and fun to navigate/use.

Something that is particularly important for me in setting a main house is how close the wayshrine is. I love the Bandari Jungle House just for that. Couldn't we have a wayshrine furnishing inside the house?

I hope you don't forget about armor mannequins and weapon racks. Hopefully we will see a retexture of the old assets, like Breton.

Why aren´t there more colovian furnishings? I wanted to do a colovia themed house but there are way less than leyawiin for example.
The new houses are way too big again with the existing furnishing limits, its a joke that they weren´t raised already. There´s no way to furnish the house itself and the outside areas properly so why even bother buying the houses

OK my feedback. Castle Skingrad... PERFECT...thats it.

The Mirror Moor style Fargrave house is fabulous too.

I like the other players idea above about window furniture.
