New Stone-Nest Structures in U49! + Ruins Wishlist

MoonPile · January 13

These are so fun to build with; I just put a few down... and got carried away xD oops. More shots of the sketch here:

And the full list of Stone-Nest structural pieces + screenshots, here:

In future updates, I'd love to get a few more Stone-Nest structures with more character, like the examples in this post. Partial and crumbling walls, wobbly platforms, etc. (similar to Druidic structural pieces). And some of Solstice's vibrant green ivies to decorate them with!

(In addition to the Stone-Nest windows, curved roof pergolas, etc. that are likely to already be planned

)

Khajiit was being a tourist in Solstice, taking pictures of broken and irregular Stone-Nest structures that would be useful furnishings.

Full set here - please give us these ruins!:

Crumbling, partial walls, & with holes:

These cylindrical roofs / pergolas…

+ the decorative mini-pergolas some have on top, and these windows:

Big, wobbly platforms:

Khajiit will have you know that this volunteer work is gravely perilous!
She hopes the Dev-ines hear our prayers for furnishings.

(Druidic structural furnishings are a good example of wobbly bits with rounded edges, rather than straight & flat.)

P.S. Something that had been on my mind while making this post, and unsurprisingly came up pretty quickly in chat elsewhere:

Yes, there have been many complaints about things being too ruined in the past. Of course that's totally valid for other tiles sets that could have cleaner pieces, which lend themselves more to building clean houses, etc.

I did wonder if those past complaints were a reason for the U49 Stone Nest set being as pristine as it is, and I (for one) don't mind it staying as-is. This is very specifically a request for new, ruined Stone Nest pieces in future updates, not changes to the given set. Because Stone Nest in particular lends itself to fun ruins & adventure builds (especially when combined with matching Antiquities like the Stone Nest Pendulum). Stone Nest is the perfect tile set for ruins, with beautiful textures, colors, and piece types we don't already have. I think it'd be a huge missed opportunity not to include these!

Noticed another one the other day – this platform chunk would be so useful!
(and behind it, the mossy version of the big, chunky, broken platform, already shown in the post above)

Yes yes! Ruins are such an important part of the general backdrop in Tamriel & lend such atmosphere.

Moar ruins plez

I love ruins, and it makes me sad seeing all the items in game I can't use. These Stone-Nest items look lovely and would be a great edition.

Instead of just giving us weirdly worn structures, give us more pristine structures and even more ruined ones, instead of a weird middle ground

Agree! Was writing a reply but realized I was basically repeating –

A toggle for clean / ruined state could also be interesting:

As nice as that is, that creates its own issues, especially for people who don't use limited visitor.

Agree, I had added comments about that at the bottom.
