Just trowing my 2 cents in here, there has been enough walls of text posted.
Im simply disappointed. The poor and misleading communication made me feel tricked and the bad realisation makes me feel like SE dont gives a damn about us. I am sure it was not intendet, and difficult things happend during developing the housing system, and its not allways easy to handle these. But how you managed it in the end felt like a slap in the face. This is my personal biggest downer that game gave me ever. Its like the trust you guys won back in the days as you took over the lead in 1.0, you just trashed it. I personally dont really know what to think of the devs anymore...
