Apartment Improvement feedback and suggestions

[Dyvid]

This is a thread long overdue and really needs to be address going forward. Please post your ideas about how to make apartments better; what you would change and what you would like to see added.

They really need to add an outdoor patio to apartments giving players the option to use outdoor items they've earned. Technically it's possible since indoor housing takes place in an empty blank space, all that would be require is adding a panoramic lay right outside of the patio that would display a screenshot of the ward giving the illusion of being outside.

I still want that move apartment room feature without having me to rebuild the room from scratch.

I shouldn't have to fight the very fabric of the game itself just to get a Namazu vendor on a stool so he can got dang see over the counter. It would be nice if there was more freedom for item placing that didn't involve using glitches just to make things look nice.

Upgradeable apartments with the ones we currently have being S size. Upgrading to medium means we move to an apartment in the upper floors, which would be a multi story apartment with a terrace/ outdoor space. 3rd option would be a large penthouse with multiple floors and a large outdoor area with a nice view of the world below.

And an increased item limit to go along with that ofc

My apartment suggestion;

Apartments their Buildings, Flats, Sorroundings, and Amenities should be improved.

The Building/s should showcase the architecture of the city state they are located, it could possibly be placed in rural locations e.g. in the middle of the Ruby Sea, using an already existing design mechanic like that of the HOH Tower, one can fly or warp to the location, move around the building and even see it from a distance.

The Flats, to have the already existing design mechanic, "Entrance to Additional Chambers" enabled (so no need to redesign the flat to make it upgradable)

But limited to e.g. 10 chambers, the only options would be "Purchase Additional Chamber and Move to Specified Chamber"

Consequently it will not include a workshop. The additional chambers can be purchased by the owner of the flat at his/her discretion.

Also, Indoor gardening should be implemented, and enabling some outdoor furniture for indoor use should be implemented as well (so no more need to redesign for instanced balcony)

The Sorroundings should highlight the most beautiful landscapes of the apartments' city state location.

The Amenities, apart from the default npc, mb, summoning bell, and mailbox. The location must have its own aetherite, and connected to other city states via airship, and places to hold in game events, as well as, stables that are always clean.

For Private Estates:

I suggest for the coming expansion, that the building area (the highlighted area on a vacant plot), would have "preset" adjustble* options, for the plot owner to select or rotate (like when one is arranging the angle of furnishings) which direction their house is facing.

the same goes for the entrance gate which is adjustable to face a desired direction, consequently outside grounds details e.g. rocks, steps, trees, ditches in front of the gate adjusts to the directional setting chosen by the plot owner.

And if possible enable the "Entrance to Additional Chambers" for private estates, but limited to e.g. 10 additional chambers only, and without the workshop. The additional chambers could be purchased by the owner of the estate at his/her discretion.

Best idea I just saw was an outdoor (not instanced but outdoor) balcony for apts! That is one of the best features of housing that apts do not have.

I'd like to see them be something more than an empty box (same for the FC rooms). They can do something like the GC room, with a raised section, and an outdoor type patio area.

Windows that have a view to the outside. The inn in Kugane has that.

Looking at the possibility for instanced balcony (apartment buildings exterior walls need to be redesigned as though each apartment had a balcony):

Moving forward from an upgradable apartment area, from the basic studio area apartment priced at 500k, that has an option to upgrade to a large area apartment priced at 40M. An instanced proportionately sized balcony should be made available for both apartment types.

Possibly following the base designs of the following:





There are walls on both sides as well as the ceiling of the balcony, but still have a panoramic outdoors view, possibly having a sunrise or sunset view depending on the wing where the unit is located.

Giving the feeling that you have a personal space balcony, though you will not see neighbor's balconies it still gives that feeling of other homeowner's behind the walls on the sides and on top of the ceiling and one floor below.

Yeah. Would love if they allowed an X, Y, Z placement without having to glitch it. Haha
