Poorly designed expensive houses.

xmaveri · May 2017

So I thought this trading Springs house and I've noticed something that's very off-putting. If you're standing on the outside of the house you'll notice that there is a triple window that sticks out on the second floor center of the house. If you go inside the house you'll notice that that room or the window does not exist. What gives? I spent all this money on this house in the windows don't even match up on the inside to the outside.. there's even what appears to be a third attic room that you of course have no access to on the inside of the house. I play on Xbox otherwise I would post pictures to show when I'm talking about.

I have the same thing with Mathiisen Manor. Don't get me wrong, I love my house, but it is weird to see a windows and rooms from the outside that don't exist on the inside.

it's our own fault.
we keep give them money, they keep doing poor work in the patches.

It must work the other way around. We don't give them money and then they do great? *shrug* Anyways, that was one of the first things I noticed when checking out houses. The curb appeal so to speak. Thought some looked huge but then instead and I was in Emeric's bedroom Everything is a bit off. I can't be the only one to notice some houses are super expensive yet incredibly small compare to one that's quite roomy. And not even in a good location. And those folks that couldn't access the Overlook balconies but you can fall off the ledge and getting eaten by slaughterfish (finally got that achievement by the way).

You know you can preview house before buying, right? If yes, don't complain that you spent all money on this and you don't like it. If I don't like something, I don't buy it. Simple.

@Astrid_V

I'm well aware of being able to to preview houses.

1. You honestly think I or anyone else is going to take the time notice every little detail on the house, inside the house, the outside, tower, in the small amount of time we preview the house? Mind you this is a large house borderline Manor. That's like saying you bought a car that says it has a V8 engine only to find out when you go to the mechanic it's only a v6 and when you go to complain to the dealer they say "well you took it on a test drive, so don't complain should have noticed it then"
2. When and where did I say I didn't like the house? Yes I had ONE complaint (strickly cosmetic) and do think for the hefty prices they want for the houses that these details should be worked out. Simply stating my complaint in hopes it gets noticed and maybe in the future the developers can take it in consideration when designing new houses. If I don't say anything, how will it get resolved?
3. Nothing in life is perfect, you're going to find imperfections in everything. So telling someone that they should just simply not purchase sed product because of those imperfections is probably the worst advice I've ever seen on these forums. It's extremely negative, and doesn't offer any structure or insight to this conversation.
4. This is an observational post for those who have experienced similar issues and provide a place to post those observations. NOT a bashing post. My love and support will always be with the Developers. I know just like myself they are not perfect. That doesn't mean I'm just going to jump ship the first time something doesn't go my way. Also there's no way to please every single player in this massive community (8 million players last I saw) simply can't please them all even myself is included in that, and I'm okay with that.
5. I love my house I've spent a ton of time inside of it designing it crafting furniture and building really cool things! The triple window that I stated previously just would have been an awesome room that have inside the house, kind of like a tease. But I'm aware that it will always remain like this and I can accept that. just wanted to bring it to the attention of the forums for anyone else who's made the same observations and we can have a place to talk about it
