Oh bloody hell. Have been hoarding my crowns and now the temptation will be to spend a little here & there until my carefully saved pile has dwindled to nothing. Bah.

Very curious as to why though. No problem when visiting it in game.

I didn't have any problem previewing it either - but I wouldn't buy it. Didn't like it very well.... I think I'll be happier with the Meadow one coming later.

I'm waiting for this one as well

looking at the preview it unfortunatly only seems to be open space without any interior you can actually enter

Kalitas · July 2019

I would like to know more of a reason as to why this was pulled. I know multiple people who pre-purchased crowns expecting this house to drop on the 11th. Is this really an IF it ever returns? Also, what is the reasoning behind cancelling the sale of the house less than 48 hours before it was released on live?

Right, it's a sandbox.

Isn’t that what cat people would want? Essentially a giant litterbox?

This one took some PTS pictures of the Meadow for anyone who is curious.

Apologies for any that were taken at night - it was dark the first day.

Also the shed like thing is something this one built and not part of the property as sold.

This is news. Very important information here. Thank God we all know about the Crown store items.

Nothing else to worry about with this game.

Nemesis7884 · July 2019

id like an elsweyr home that looks more like a temple than 5 times the same home in different sizes

SantieClaws · July 2019

Must have been a fairly big concern if it was pulled so close to release date.

More likely to be something with the t-shirt than the home - although in that case then why not just change things for now, sell the home and sell the t-shirt with something else later on?

The feels legal somehow - contractual. The lack of detail and so on.

Most curious …

Well that sucks. Guess it's better delayed than released and broken with not enough shirts to go around or people unable to get what they were promised.

Still, a shame everything's breaking at once. The healer killing patch is one thing, but that's straight up ZOS' fault. This is hopefully due to something other than them screwing themselves over.

Wow! Many thanks for the pics and for Rolis' new furnishing plans

The meadow looks ideal for an idea I have been kicking around that is entirely unsuitable for Coldharbor Surreal Estatte

StabbityDoom · July 2019

You know the better question is, why are we only hearing about this on twitter (and me reposting here)? Shouldn't this be an announcement or at least in the updates zos puts out?

Exactly. Who tf uses Twitter besides celebrity gossips and whacked politicians?

You do realize people play games for different reasons, right? Some things important to you may not be important to others and vice-versa. Especially in an Elder Scrolls game.

well, me... and I'm neither... I'm just worried about news that only gets disseminated that way, and apparently I'm right to be.

Hey, I'm just trying to help. Some people were looking forward to this house. And there is no official announcement here, so I thought I'd let people know.

SantieClaws · July 2019

There was a dev post in the crown store showcase official thread for the month if anyone is wondering.

Thanks Santie, I must have missed that.

I think they may have gotten in trouble with offering a free Tshirt with the purchase of Jode's Embrace, especially when it's likely that whomever wanted the Tshirt would likely have to pay for shipping of said shirt, therefore not making it actually free.

Frankly, they need to separate their promos and just sell Jode's on it's own. Attach the free Tshirt to some other physical item promo like a Lithograph or something.

Korah_Eaglecry · July 2019

Im going to bet that they were going to have issues shipping t-shirts to different countries. Though this seems to be a recurring issue with the Crown Store. This is what the 3rd or 4th thing to be pulled from the store without so much as a real explanation.

StabbityDoom · July 2019

I'm astounded more people aren't upset by this.

It's possible that many people don't even know it yet. They will only find out when they try to buy it tomorrow...

volkeswagon · July 2019

Kind of relieved cause I don't have enough crowns and am getting sickened by the cost of crowns.

I went over there this morning and looked around. It would make an ideal place for a park or garden.

One thing I noticed was that the Elsweyr floor sections were much more intricate than the currently craftable floors. I am hoping they will release the more detailed flooring to us at some point. I am also glad we can craft those Elsweyr grills, those are very cool and actually look like some sort of barbecuing apparatus.

Hazurko_RaShan · July 2019

I found out it was canceled before i even knew it was for sale. go figure

malchior · August 2019

Did they run out of CANVAS to make the shirt? oh wait...

Mathius_Mordred · August 2019

Maybe it was pulled because of the same problems as the Hall of the Lunar Champion?

Can we get the house cheaper if we don't want that T-Shirt?

Most people will say whaaaat? to that, I know - but if I want a house, I want a house. Never asked for a T-shirt.

Make the T-shirt a separate item in the shop and give like... I dont know... codes for a price reduction if one watches a certain twitch event or something. If you sell housing and want to give extras - great! Make that housing extras!

This!!!
While I like t-shirts in general and video game shirts in particular, I don't like dragons... and I don't need a dragon shirt. I just want the house. If I could gift the shirt to someone else, well, fine. But I'd rather have the house without the shirt.
