Do the new housing plots seem smaller ?

[WalkingDragon]

I've checked out the new Ishgard plots.
To me it looked like the large plots seem to be as big as the medium slots we have atm..

Do I need glasses? or am I not the only one seeing this?

You might be right. My FC has a large (28 in Lavender Bed) and there is a fair amount of space all around the house and seems to have a much larger front yard, at least compared to lot 12 in Empyreum.

did a bit of eyeball measuring with a friend and the mansion yards do seem like half the size lol

Might be the fact that the new plots are elevated? Looks pretty similar to me.

One year when I was looking at getting my first plot, I looked at them and thought the same thing. When you finally put a house on them it somehow adjusts. It's weird and I don't know why they look that way as an empty plot.

Looks to me like the 2nd is smaller width wise compared to the top image. I think they gave the 2nd more length and made the house claim area itself larger.

The non-elevated portion of the plot (a.k.a. the outline) looks like the original large plot layout were used to from the top image.

No, it wasn't given more length. The housing exterior is actually smaller than your regular exterior because it has a forge portion in the front. They have been giving more room to the front and sides of the house with newer exteriors.

Also consider the picture is taken from further back (2nd one) so they're not perfectly aligned, and thus looks slightly smaller.

Why post it then if you know it's not an accurate representation?

Because I was posting it to compare plot widths?

Not the actual house as it's very rare to have a mansion and an outdated exterior?

Edit: Let me explain it a bit further, since I'm guessing you don't yet own a house. You need both plots to have the exact same exterior to compare the inner space. Because full house exteriors modify the inner spaces completely.

We can't buy Ishgard houses yet, so it's not possible to compare unless someone with a large house demolishes the estate.

And before someone asks, I won't demolish my state because that means losing every FC member room, plus airships and submersibles. Plus all decorations.

So, my focus was comparing the plot widths.

I'll be happy just to get one, I don't care how small it is.
