housing pros & cons

Postby DeltaBro101 » Sat Apr 23, 2016 2:43 am

Could anyone list out the pros and cons of each house type? I'm relocating to a better place and wanted to find out what would be best me. Thank you and may good luck come to you.

I don't think there are any cons other than looks.

If you are talking about storage space that would be up to the location of your next residence.

You forgot one:
+ Can have people avenge your death by crafting a Nidbane fetter.

Oh, and OP, you are aware of the way different materials will make different houses, right?
"...the dungeon and shackles are already at my threshold to show me here and now my eternal disgrace. Only you can work the miracle to make life possible for a soul so imperiled by doubt, O Atoner for all, exalted beyond saying." - St. Gregory of Narek, Book of Lamentations, Prayer 1.

You are much loved! Love in return!

Oke. ;) Just don't want you to get stuck with an ugly house.

IMHO, best materials are sallow for the wooden supports (the latticing, as in the stonestead which uses wattle and daub for the actual walls) and hay for thatch.

How is the stone tower "ugly"? It can look different depending on the materials used.
