Island Sanctuary

If it's our very own island why can't we build a house to live in?. Not talking about the huts with mammets in them.


Personally, I expected more of a paradise and it also seems to be a missed opportunity for an extra house (instanced housing), it definitely feels very basic, the beaches are mostly great but we cannot access the entire map which is a pity, being our island in its entirety should allow us to stand everywhere.


I wanted it to be more like "Breath of the Wild" where one can go wherever one can see, sadly not on the Island Sanctuary but I guess SE can always improve it.


The Island Sanctuary could also become a much needed housing alternative with an aetheryte to teleport there directly.

Devs themselves have directly stated they DO NOT want Islands to be a replacement for housing. Plus they said this is something that will be added onto every other patch. This being the initial release of it, I was expecting it to feel a bit barebones at first.

Everyone knows what they have said already. It's just that we think think they are wrong / misguided / etc.

They did? Where? The only statement I've read was that it IS NOT a replacement. Or more specifically to curb our expectations.

On at least one live letter, Yoshida said it's not a replacement for housing and to temper expectations for it.

Pretty exciting to me that this is apparently just the start of it. Devs said that they will be adding more onto the Island Sanctuary every other major match. Though as I took the day off from work to play today I can tell you, you cant really no life it as there are timers for building new structures. This is something thats meant to be a daily log in for a half hour, kinda thing.

I just upgraded my cabin and they upgrade the walking path as well! I love 24/7 Island Sanctuary

I'm stuck at trying to sow seeds. I'm in the sow mode, but nothing happens when I click on the plot, nor does anything happen when I select the seeds. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

You have the seeds selected in the item box? Pumpkin ones?

Well I'm trying to, but whatever I'm doing must be incorrect, because when I click on the seeds nothing seems to happen. I assumed it's the pumpkin seeds, since they're the only ones I've found and the NPC gave me 5 more when I got to this step.
