Small House 20 item limit for Outdoors?!?!?

[Kyllandra]

What if I did... my house...

Am I really being trolled over this stupid limit? Unless there is someone on this housing forum who has not capped their outdoor item limit then I don't see how this is even a debate. I don't know how it's even possible to be under the limit. It should have been changed a long time ago.

I know this post is old, but I just googled "outdoor housing limit" since housing is new to me. I've got a medium plot and 30 items is simply not enough. You want to do some landscaping and add lighting and small bushes so the trees don't look "naked"? You want to add some stepping stones? Yeah, that's not happening. Go and get that giant eye-sore outdoor furnishing if you want your yard to look like it's not straight outta Compton two lawn chairs and a grill. People thinking they're being creative by being needlessly limited is hilarious. But if you came to the forums expecting to find any semblance of logic or reason, you came to the wrong place. What you're going to get is "i don't have a problem with it, so it's not a problem".

The limit appears to be arbitrary like a lot of things in this game. It's a really beautiful game with lots of things to do but also LOTS of very odd and illogical limitations to go along with it like I can't accept an invite because I've got my retainer window open? Yeah okay. That's just lazy developing imo.

People are telling you that you can do it, "You just gotta get creative" without realizing that the limitation is actually killing the creative outlet these features COULD provide. Is it Christmas time? You may put up one christmas tree and a couple of snow piles and a snowman but you're going to have to remove several trees and bushes and probably some stepping stones. You're welcome.

I'm not saying we need a limit in the thousands, but 30? Come on. It's ridiculous and there is no argument for it. Even another 10 items could make all the difference. Most lawns look straight up ugly and barren. Very few people have really made it work. I also think it's ironic for people to be criticizing and outright attacking you for a making a reasonable suggestion. You're a consumer and as a consumer you have a right and responsibility to make suggestions about a product that is NOT working or could be improved significantly.

I'll attach a couple of images of my yard. I can't stand "naked" looking trees.




I've put red makers where I'd like to add more things but can't because of the limit. In order for me to put some stepping stones, a bird bath, and more lighting shown in the red markers, I'm going to have to remove the blood bushes. I can just forget that picnic area I was hoping to design.




But yeah ... that probably does look like the set of Sanford & Son. SMH
