    in The Sims 4 Speculation and Rumor
    Well I'm not
    I could be wrong this might be interesting, but this is just not my playstyle.This seems more fitted for a smaller pack .Not a big pack.I hope people who like this can enjoy it.But right now it seems boring.Whats so fun having a whole pack about going green, or save the environment?

      Well they had a whole side game dedicated to it before, so yes I am excited since it was my favorite side game when I played it on PC and DS:

      I will say I’m surprised it’s an EP 🤷‍♀️

      I’m very disappointed but I’m waiting to see more on it before I make my final decision. I just don’t see how this qualifies as a expansion pack. I’m not paying $40 for solar panels. It better have lots of gameplay.

      I hope you enjoy the pack. I'll be here hoping for farming.

      Waiting for the trailer, but this sounds more like a theme for GP.

      I’m reserving my judgement until I learn more. The description mentions a "community space project". It sounds like it might incorporate some elements from Town Life (an EP from an old survey)?

      @Horrorgirl6 We’ll see, gotta find out what all is in it first.

      I’m expecting drivable Renault Twizys using their new bicycle tech from DU. But disappointed it’s not farming. 🤷🏻‍♂️

      I agree @OhMyHemsworth - I'm going to wait until more information comes out before I make a complete judgment. Based on what we have, however, I'm not very interested.

      The description of reducing your eco-footprint and transforming your neighborhood sounds just like the island living feature. The complete description sounds like it'll be like that conservationist career. I'm sure there's more but so far it sounds like a gamepack and not a very good one at that.

      We'll see.

      Really? We’re getting a trailer AND a livestream?

      I’ll be the one to say the unpopular thing and say I’m actually kinda excited. I mean, my hopes aren’t high because meaningful gameplay from TS4 has been more miss than hit, but when we thought it was “country living” my roommate and I were talking about it and I was like “I’m happy for all the people who want this super bad, and I’m not opposed, but it’s not really my scene or my playstyle. If they put a hard focus on Off The Grid and sustainable living I’d be more into that than crops and county fairs.” And so it turning over night from Country Living into Eco Lifestyle almost felt like a fairy heard me and granted a wish. Now I just have to hope she’s not a capricious fairy or I’ll be eating in my words. If that does turn out to be the case then I’m sorry for what I have wrought. 😜
      Sometimes I stream.

      This EA account is shared between two longtime roommates. The one most likely to be writing here is me, the taller of the roommates, whose opinions do not always represent the opinions of the shorter roommate.

      I might be excited if this was a game pack or included in a farming pack, but based on the description and the idea of an entire EP centered on eco living - no - it's a pass for me.

      Not at all. There are so many things we could have had before this- Generations, farming, hobbies, cars, etcm. I know we've only had a short description so far but I just can't see how this theme can fill an EP. I'm sensing Island Living 2.0.

      you are like me, I'd kill for a Generations type pack in TS4 ;-;

      There is the politician career that came with City Living. I would love if they actually let us be mayor of our own worlds again and place lots. :)
