How to fix housing in 2 steps

[Sairys]

What am I incorrect about?

Contrary to your claim, at no point have I said that apartments and houses are the same thing. I haven't. All I've said is that both are housing, which is true.

In the meantime, you continue to play semantics game instead of answering the question I posed to you that would actually be useful feedback for the developers. Let me try asking it again.

What are you looking for from housing, why does a house provide what you want and why does an apartment not provide what you want?

Believe it or not, I'm on your side. I want you to have a house. I want other players who don't have a house to get houses as well. I want everyone to be able to enjoy the system.

But if players aren't providing constructive feedback, the developers aren't getting useful information to consider when they go to make design decisions.

"Apartments aren't housing" is not constructive feedback.

"Apartments are not the housing I want because... " then followed by a list of specific reasons would be.

Take a step back, breathe, and reread the posts without worrying about being right about the semantics debate you started. Because what you're asking for here has been said already.

There is no point to creating a list when the list is just how houses and apartments are different. Really... trying to open the discussion to feature lists invites wish lists that may even make apartments better than houses and can become prescriptive to the devs rather than leaving it open to them to find ways to achieve that. For example, the desire for an outdoor space can be achieved via balconies or a garden space, each might offer different opportunities to address things and one might be more effective than the other so it's simpler to just leave it open rather than focusing on any specific solution.
