Free room location at Rosy lion, not a good design choice aesthetically.

Tapio75

I often spend time at Rosy lion, it has been a Tavern where its great to go listen to the bard playing and wait for RP opportunities or just be in role alone. I also go there when i have long chats going on with other players, i just like the overall atmosphere.. Or liked before the free room for housing was added downstairs.

The whole bar area looks odd now, the atmosphere is fone, NPC population seems less than before and the placement of various furniture does not feel very well thought. The bar area is full of chairs that cant be used.

Why on earth was it necessary to add a new room to an inn where there is allready rooms of similar size available upstairs? It would have been easy to just remove the interior of one room and add a door that leads to housing free room instance.

I think the Rosy lion Bar area needs to be restored to its former glory, no matter if it takes dev time from somewhere else, bad decisions need to be fixed. The room needs to be moved upstairs so it fits in the setting and feels like it belongs there.

(I edited the whole post because i realised it was poorly written, i am not complaining about free housing rooms at all, just about the aesthetics of Rosy lions bar area after the room was added there, this new version should better reflect my problem with that åarticular room)

Housing was meant for you to spend gold or real money in the cash shop.

Not to mention, that the NPC population and furniture seems to be reduced in the bar area as well, the place does not feel so cozy as it was before.. The bar area is also full of chairs that dont work >.

This does not mean that the free rooms need to be exactly the same size. Only the room is free, you still need to furnish it yourself.

The rosy lion room is just poorly made and also was waste of resources as there allready was a room of similar size upstairs, it was not necessary to ruin the bar area with this ugliness.

I would agree with you aesthetic wise. Utility wise I would say it's pretty good since the furniture npc are just outside and the teleporter is super close by. It's quickly turning out to be one of my main rooms in the game.

I admit these are good conveniences but upstairs is not that much further, the furniture NPC could have been there as well.

The thing is, that these should also be built so they feel plausible in the building they are and i dont think the size is that important factor, rooms tend tpo be different in different buildings and cultures, even in free rooms, this diversity should be there but its only there as a different skin on the room . It would not have hurt anyone to have these rooks in existing rooms you know, especially the Rosy lion.

Then i got to Daggerfall covenant and the Rosy lion.. Man i hate this room..

I don't think the intention was for you to love a room you get for free. How can you even complain for something that is given free, complain for something that you buy instead .

I don't know if it was you who was asking about the outside of the rosy lion room in zone chat not long ago OP, but I went and looked and yeah it looks odd.

Yeah, it was me. I often spend time there when i talk with friends or just want to listen to the bard there..

The room inside is actually very good, cozy and all that, its just saddensme somehow that the Bar area of Rosy lion was changed because of that wwhen there was nearly the same sized room upstairs that could have been converted to housing.

Maybe the complaint is made a bit in a wrong way.. I realised im not complaining about the room itself but the changed interior of Rosy lion.
