Please make Daggerfall Overlook's backyard / balconies accessible

Sure, it sucks you can't navigate the walls on your own manor, but the fact there's a bunch of content you can't even access in your own home, it really sucks. Invisible walls plight much of the area, which really makes it feel closed and strained. Daggerfall Overlook has some of these issues.

Here is the balcony, for example, that looks amazing and overlooks your kingdom. Note that Daggerfall Overlook / Ebonheart Chateau have no balconies, yet most Large Houses have them:

You can build a bunch of platforms to reach it, but the problem is, they're difficult to navigate! You have to place a bunch of ugly platforms with no knockback collision to reach them.

You also have the backyard, which looks amazing from this angle, yet you can't reach it. Why have this entire area that you can't access? It would be a nice little area for a massive, towering overlook.

It's really a shame so much seems accessible in the Overlook, but you can't actually reach it.

Please give us some way to reach the areas, ZOS. Maybe a few simple doors going in and out of these areas? Through the bedroom? It would certainly make this whole house a lot more open and less constrained by thousands of invisible walls.

    Totally, it puts me off buying it. I really want to but i can't justify the price for not having access to those.

    Many of houses, medium, large, manors suffer from the same problem:

    The exterior design does not match its interior design:

    - rooms are in wrong place
    - windows appear from outside but not from inside
    - houses have 2nd floors/attics from the outside but not from inside
    - invisible walls in wrong places

    Before release of any new houses, ZOS should look into fixing old houses and reviewing again where to place invisible walls. For now it seems that boundaries of house areas were added by some machine who just calculated things and placed walls where it thought its suitable, as a result limiting very appealing parts of houses as OP mentioned. Otherwise, its will become yet another issue puling up without being fixed as soon as it appears.

    Yep, I would like to see a lot of houses fixed. Like Hunding's Palatial Hall, you can't patrol the top of the surrounding wall because there's an invisible wall blocking you from getting up there! The invisible wall should have been placed farther back (just to stop you jumping over the edge) but not like this where you can't even walk along it. The view is amazing up there too.

    Understand the frustration. Have Hunding's and spent too bloody long making a stone walkway to the roof - but at least have access now.

    At least can access the balconies (altho do have a window missing). Would be so frustrated if could not. But then when wandering around looking at these places am always thinking about what 'improvements' could be made. But some design flaws just can't be overcome by ingenuity :(

    I understand as well. It's annoying because Hunding's has the worst invisible walls. They're all over the place on the walls and you can stand on some edges and can stand on some parts, but there's so many clunky walls that it puts you off. I was really frustrated when I purchased it because I couldn't take advantage of their beauty.

    The nice thing though is the other wall in the backyard is completely invisible-wall free. It looks amazing placing ballistae on that wall protecting my domain against any naval attack! Really wish it was true for all the other walls.

    It is a issue and one I hope the address with all the other housing issues, I think they should have given housing another six months testing time over all.

    Before housing was released, I knew what I wanted. A nice little Redguard house that has the downstairs and the little bedroom upstairs that goes out to a little balcony. Simple. I ran all over checking out building and shops. Yep, that was it. The only house they released like that is near the palace in Sentinel and you can't access the balcony. That's mean.

    Yes! I noticed that - went in & out of the house a few times just to make sure that was actually the case. Was amazed it was not accessible. Really really mean!
