Will you ever become accustomed to Twilight's castle?

Aesthetically, I don't think it fits ponyville, as with those damn wings! Just kidding there.

Too much cold for a home, excessive empty space. Such an spacious place might make ponies feel little in comparison.

It stands like a royal barrier between her and the people(ponies) I am from spanish royalty. Never liked those kind of buildings, nor the kind of people that inhabited them.

It's a no no.

Maybe...if the ever freaking SHOW IT!

 

I mean, it's been awhile, and I feel like we should have seen the castle more by now, but we've only seen like 5 seconds of it.  The old library was a focal point and centerpiece of the show, so of course it felt like home.  The castle could be home, too, but I'm still at the phase Twilight was at during the beginning of Castle, Sweet Castle--it's still this foreign, sterile thing, because we've barely seen it.  I'm okay with it, but I really want to see more of it.  I want a frickin slumber party episode at the castle.  (In a mocking tone-->) I guess that's too "Season 1" for the show now.  Pffft.

I've never minded it, just as I didn't mind Twilight becoming an Alicorn. Though I agree it feels rather...distant, so to say? I've rarely seen it, and I forget about its existence when it's off-screen. In the library, on the other hand, there was a lot going on. Parties, lessons, studying, problem-solving, and whatnot, it felt a lot more homey. Now, the characters rarely ever are in the Castle.

 

I guess it's kinda to be expected, since Season 5's premise was "a big adventure all over Equestria", so not much time to stay at home. But, most of the episodes so far took place in either Ponyville or Canterlot, so...not exactly new places. :P

Not really. The crystalline stone just seems so cold and unfriendly. The Golden Oaks library really fit her personality much better.

The Library fit the quaint, and greenhorn (get it because she a unicorn and... Nevermind) Twilight. But she's moving up now. So I think the castle is an okay change in that respect.

 

Plus it fits the personality of Hasbro's wallet if that's any consolation. XD

I agree I hope they show more of the castle.

If we're asking purely whether I'll ever get used to it, sure. We've seen more of it and spent more time in it than we have in RD's house, for example :derp:.

 

If we're asking "will you ever think the castle isn't inferior to the library in basically every aspect that doesn't involve selling playsets?" the answer is likely no :V

I actually like her new castle. :o

 

Considering that it was created by the Tree of Harmony and somewhat resembles the Crystal Empire, it makes me even more excited about the whole Harmony thing. So much lore to speculate on! And I have a feeling the movie in 2017 will have answers.

I also prefer Twilight's old digs in the library but the new castle also has some potential.  Firstly though, it needs more occupants than just the Mane 6.  There needs to be a small army of servants and guards, just as there would be with any other royal castle.

 

Just thinking about poor adorkable Twilight getting frazzled with keeping track of all the paperwork and red tape that comes with managing the goings-on in her own castle would be hilarious in my humble opinion.
