I strongly believe the majority of players could only finish this quest due to the "bug" from last year - remembering dozens of players waiting in line on the nodewar server to have their turn last year.

The idea of a haunted house should be to scare you yes but please not because of the mechanics.

I would really like to see the option to choose if you want to finish the haunted house easy or the normal (hard) mode.

In easy mode you get the normal rewards

=> talk to the black spirit to reduce the amount of enemy ghosts to one each room aka he spooked the ghosts away (not without a snicker the player is to scared of ghosts)  

In normal mode the same base rewards but a bonus title for example "haunted house pumpkin" 

=> the actual wonky state of the event

So everyone can finish the maze and those who like that challenge could show off to others they could finish it the "hard" way

Today I found out why me and many others are unable to complete it.

Pearl Abyss as usual did not test this content.

Watch these two movies:

And now question: does house of horror look the same for you?

Nope. And this is the answer to the question why it is impossible for us. To complete house of horror just as easily as the authors of these movies, we need to change the graphics options to high / maximum because we don't see these monsters from far away, but from 1 centimeter.

Medium / low works fine too, and once you know where the ghosts and traps are, it doesn't even matter. Only the randomly moving ghost may surprise you, but it's not like it moves fast.

On the same movies, you can also see how close you can get from a ghost or trap. 

So... No. You're wrong. That's totally possible, no matter the quality. But you simply want to find a reason not to spend time on it. 

I have neither the time nor the desire to make a movie just for you, the facts are that on my pc and my graphics settings house of horror looks different. Anyway, you even have confirmation in the comment below the video. Everything is much darker and the monsters are invisible, they only become visible when you almost step into them, which means it's too late.

I don't need you to do a movie for that, I know you're wrong. Just do as I say and you'll finish it. No need to thank me.
