2. Canning
3. those cute cows
4. befriending rabbits
5. quests
1. create-a-pond
2. team cooking
3. better calendar
4. The new canning interactions would interest me if food spoilage were a big issue. But as things are, I don't see the purpose. (or is canning strictly a new pack activity?)
5. cross stitching. Doesn't interest me, but it's a cool addition. Edit: seems like that's limited to this new pack, so there's one pack-specific thing that does look cool to me.
It's the little things, you know.
- Lactose intolerant sims (I have at least one who is supposed to be lactose intolerant, now she'll get actuall gameplay)
- Cooking together
- Pond tool and especially decorations
- Competitions
Birds & Bunnies on my fairytale lots
Purses for my female sims
My sims strolling on that green ring thing
Foxes on my Vampire/Spellcaster lots
pond tool
wisteria vine plant
huge plants that look like they should
lot challenges
window shopping
Purses there are purses?! My female Sims has always wanted an enormous amount of purses and shoes. But I thought that was limited to mrs. Winterbottom
Pond tool. (I have about ten lots with the ponds already dug out waiting for the water).
New Build Items.
New Buy Items.
Cooking together.
New gardening items.
Looking forward to turning Willow Creek into an older type Village as well.
Canning (that's not a base game update, is it?)
The Lot challenges
The new animals and birds
Cross stitching
1. New traits: Animal enthusiast and lactose intolerant (I find the second one hilariously specific, and the mischief maker in me can't help but wonder what a sim with vegetarian, lactose-intolerant, and squeamish traits would be like to play with -- a lot of nausea, I imagine).
2. Chickens and the fact that they can breed
3. the Animals in general (beautifully and realistically animated and with lots more interactions than I expected).
4. the new builds, which are all gorgeous
5. Food: new ingredients and harvestables (cheese, milk of different flavours, raspberries, blueberries, new mushrooms, eggplant, watermelon, etc) and unique new recipes: jams and conserves, new pies, beef wellington, eggplant parmesan, watermelon salad, etc.
I'd also be interested in knowing if anyone thought there was a missed opportunity in this pack, something that you think really ought to be there in a farming/ cottage/ country pack (but of course its absence doesn't ruin anything; it just would have been nice to have). At the moment I can't think of anything that's missing but I am sure something will occur to me eventually!
1. The challenge of raising animals
2. The ability to be self-sufficient
3. The world
4. The fact that we can have evil chickens (I can see it now: an evil loner vampire with a farm of fiery-eyed chickens)
5. Villager quests
The only thing I wish they had added was more ways to get water and energy off the grid, like maybe a well and more rustic looking wind turbines, but I understand that wasn't really the focus of this pack.
2. NPC roles. May need some tweaking but otherwise I like it.
3. Crumplebottoms.
4. The world is visually beautiful and lovely. Just wish we had more lots.
5. Produce & the produce competition looks fun.
2. Simple Living challenge
3. Simple Living challenge
4. Simple Living challenge (I do not need a mod anymore!!)
5. All the rest (minus black barn door/hole)
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
2.) I really really love the ground plots. I was getting sick of planter boxes.
3.) Children can cook & garden.& Gain skills while doing it.
4.) Animals die - trust me, I know it sounds awful, but I'd rather my animals rip then end up neglected because my Sims died first.
5.) Lactose intolerant Trait. We need more traits like this that feel personal to the sim but relatable to other sims.
