Did you miss where I said they obviously had access to resources because the lord
was there at one point? Where nobility goes, especially a landowner, merchants and skilled artisans go with them. A town can't survive without retaining some sort of supply line, so they've likely made arrangements based on their earlier ones.
Also, just because a place is abandoned doesn't mean it immediately wears down and becomes shit. It still takes many years for a well-built abode (the only kind a noble would live in) to become unlivable. Also, you can CLEARLY see people are cleaning up/likely doing minor repairs in the issue. It's literally several pages and an explanation.
You're also discounting this is a world of magic, magic items, and people with strange magical skills. And stats, so at least somewhat game-like. Nothing about this is ridiculous. It's like you think that just because Feel has full plate that she suddenly bought it a moment ago, or it was just made for her out of purchased ore. It could VERY easily be a leftover from the noble's own guard contingent.
We simply don't know enough - but even if we use our own world's logic, none of this was nonsensical. The poorer you are, the more you make use of what's leftover, so most of what they have that's 'out of place' can be easily and fairly construed to be leftover from when they had their lord. Either it'll be explained, or it was just never all that important, anyway.
It feels more like you're just fishing for reasons to hate than having an actual issue with this background point that is quickly and easily explained with what little information we have.
