I totally agree with this. I would use more active items than i do now, and would Certainly buy some “old” things if they were revamped. Great article!!

There is so many interresting active items out there I want but would never buy at 22 slots. Of course, pool table and poker as well as dart are on top of the list. (Those I already own.) But electric train, model car track, astrolab, house pet… The list could go on a full page.
I wouldn’t mind paying for new version of those I own. I wouldn’t mind a “better” pool game either
Strangely, I find it even more a problem now than with the old 50 items cap. Back then the cap included 2 active items. You just had to choose wich ones. Now with a more flexible system I am less incline to use 22 slots items.
I remember when I bought my first personal place. I wanted to do a “guy place” A pool table here, poker there, throw in a brimstone dancer…. No! can’t do!
There is so many possibilty with active items. I wish dev would slow down on LMO’s and create more of these.

Remember 50 slots allowed per space? Yi Yi Yi Yi Yi!
Things have improved so I’m not complaining about those who don’t make the 22 slotters less. The new ones are mostly less than 22.

We need new pool tables. VeeMee’s are not that great. Maybe it happens maybe it doesn’t.

I’m a saddo when it comes to furniture items, I’ve got every item I own out in a space somewhere, so if I want to play pool I go to that space or if I want to watch fireworks I go there, but I’ve purchased and won enough spaces to do that, but now I’ve forgotten where stuff is lol. Perhaps having a comment box for each space would help.

Agree. Agree. Agree!

I just bought the Mystic Arcade space (who didnt see me buying THAT lol) and the first thing I thought when I stepped into the space was “damn this place is small!”.

But actually, now that it’s been filled with arcades and a make-shift bar, it’s the perfect size for the amount of arcades we currently have available -- even though I didnt use all of them.

Now imagine if each arcade needed 22 slots. If that were the case, then I wouldn’t have bought the space in the first place, simply for the fact there’d be no point. I’d get maybe 4 arcades in there and then what?

I WANTED to add my pool table too but, no one really ever asks for a game of it and I’d rather have a 140″ screen behind my bar as a distraction than use those slots for an unused obstacle.

I dont get how a single chess game can possibly need more space than THIRTEEN FULL arcade games!?

Ooblang’s Casino game is pretty cool, and would have made a nice little addition to the place too, but again it comes down to usefulness Vs item count, and as it stands, LOOT’s TV will still be used more I think. A retroactive update to squash these old 22 slot-hungry actives would go down VERY well in my world.

I hope someone who can help reads your article Burbie.
