I'm hoping there's a cheat to make it clean in the beginning but then it gradually gets dirtier and more polluted over time - for storytelling purposes
Dirty at least I would be able to make a story from it. I have a nature type world with glimmerbrook and can add the eco stuff to that world and others. It’s getting boring having shiny pretty worlds all the time so the contrast of it being dirty and smoggy will give a different vibe and stories to tell. Plus a lot of grungy stuff came with city living and strangerville so i can put those bb items to use.
I have waited years for a world like this. I want to keep it dirty. I have tried several times to simply make a run down home and its impossible for me to do that in my game. Everything is so nice and pretty. Where is the torn, ripped furniture, toilets with duct tape or cracks on them, etc? I hope the live stream shows some awesome run down items.
The town when clean is ugly. But not a useful ugly. The town when dirty is also ugly, in fact even uglier than the clean world. Thing is it is ugly in a way that makes it ideal for certain stories. It is so far from ideal that it is a useful add to the game. The clean version is an eyesore but not usefully so. Only issue is can I leave this dump out a town apocalyptically dirty without dumping on the rest of the world's. After fixing it once, I doubt I will ever need this to be anything but a toxic waste of a city.
I'm here for the apocalypse as well. I'll probably try cleaning it up in a new save first to see how that works, though. And some good points have been raised here: the aurora borealis and the possibility of constant negative moodlets. So we'll see. But mostly, yeah, I'd like to have an awful place that my sims sometimes have to go to for some reason.
IF I were to get the pack at some point, I'd probably leave the world dirty during a couple of generations (after having moved a legacy sim into the neighbourhood) and then later have a group of young sims come up with a project to make the world a better place.
I hope the world can get dirty again tough. So there could be a generation that <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 everything up o:)
If I get it (let’s see the livestream and gameplay), I would have it cleaned up for suburban sims in one save. Then I want a whole seperate save to have a survival/apocalyptic/zombie legacy story going on.
Sul Sul!

When I get this, and I know eventually I will just not at first, I think I'd rather have the dirty run down stuff for the most part. Trashy, post apocalyptic vibes work for me.
It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.
I want to experience/enjoy both. If Evergreen comes grungy first, I will leave it that way for a good while until I eventually find that perfect sim who wants to make changes to that world. I mean come on, all the other worlds are all sunshine and rainbows! It'll be nice to see something different. But I do hope we can pick and choose what worlds we want dirty as @LiELF mentioned in another thread.

I will clean it up so that it is sparkling and beautiful because that is just more of my style. Other people can do whatever they want. Lol.
I like exploring beautiful and immersive worlds. Turning the city from a post-industrial ruin into something better would be something that I would do if/when I get this pack. I would be interested in seeing how the community develops together.
I've got an established rotation so I'll make any decisions based on what is going in my game. Recently, I've been playing in Oasis Springs and StrangerVille but I have houses in the various worlds.
All we ever had was clean towns and cities - even after City Living introduced graffiti! It's time for a proper way to do a setting for homeless and runaway teen story telling games!
Nothing like a smoggy city to see just how hard your runaway Sims lives will be and if they'll be able to make it in life!
I want to see how dirty it can get and then maybe try to improve it. Low as it can go and then bring it back. I hear it is going to roll over to other towns. Can't wait to see the livestream! I am glad to hear that we have options! I salute this! Makes me think of Fallout.
I planned on leaving it dirty because I liked the grungy look. Now that we know pollution affects all the worlds I wonder if they all get cleaned up at the same time. If it's world by world then I'm leaving it dirty but if it's all the worlds at once that get cleaned up I guess it will get cleaned up as well.
Why is everyone talking about one clean save and one dirty save? Will pollution affect every world the same? I want San Myshuno to be dirty but Brindleton Bay to be clean. Won‘t this possible in the same save?
Edit: Oh, this thread is about one specific world. It makes sense that it can‘t be clean and dirty at the same time.
Thank you for making the poll. I was afraid no one would answer if I asked this question. I was curious to know. Dirty! because finally a chance to play Silent Hill in The Sims. lol TS4 is too happy, too clean, too bright, too pretty. I love grunge in my games, where I have a lot of FO, COD, SH, etc. games stuff in my games. TS4 needs some dirt, grunge and bad times.

Yeah, I made this poll before it was revealed that other worlds could be polluted too. Knowing TS4, I assumed it was only going to be the new world again. But I don't know if everything we do will affect all the worlds simultaneously, or if each has its own pollution meter; I think we'll have to wait for the gameplay livestream to find out.
Dirty. Otherwise, it's a standard world and there isn't anything too special about it. Every other world is perfect, and environmentally great. This world actually has some problems, which gives it some quirkiness.

might try to clean it up in another save if I feel like it....but I just love the polluted kinda industrial look.

Something wicked this way comes!
