Hi, everyone! With lots of people being being excited over Cottage Living coming out (myself included), @MonaSolstraale and I thought it might be a good idea to give it its own thread.

We'd love to see some pictures of how everyone is playing with the pack! Are you starting a farm? Growing crops? Befriending bunnies? Attempting to woo eligible bachelor #1, Agnes Crumplebottom? Feel free to post some screenshots in here! ๐Ÿ˜

    Thank you for making this thread! I've just been playing for five minutes but I need to share with everyone how pretty this town is. My sim just moved in, bought two chickens, fed them and then went to explore the town.

    Agnes! <3 But no time to try and befriend her - the welcome wagon has arrived at my sim's house, and I do want her to meet her neigbours.

    @PalmArrow I love that little grocery stall! From the angle you took the screenshot, it looks like the bananas in the back are wearing sunglasses ๐Ÿคญ

    I only had a few minutes to check things out but in that time I found a bunny and the random household I played got a strange welcome wagon.

    This happened in the first ten minutes or so of playing a household.
    cDFO1t2.jpg

    I went with Arthur and Guin, with the idea of having them walk around on autonomy. Maybe do some farming. I plopped them down on that small lot up the hill by the waterfall.

    Right off the bat, this happens:

    iyfCdNe.jpg
    YHNJYKc.jpg

    A fox pops up right next to my sims and is just dead-pan staring at Arthur. Right at him. With the cutest little shiny fox eyes I've ever seen. Just look at that thing ๐Ÿ˜ Its name is Crystal and I love it.

    L2RNSo9.jpg

    I buy a cow and leave these two on autonomy to see what they would do. They're star-crossed lovers in my story and I figured I'd give them a break to flirt with each-

    zQzms9c.jpg

    ...aaaaand nope, Arthur goes straight for the fox and Guin goes straight for the cow. Typical. But good too - I haven't seen any interactions with foxes yet. I'm pretty curious.

    Arthur ends up surprising me by suddenly deciding that he's done being a prince and instead, he wants to be a Disney princess.

    Apparently he's good at it, too! ๐Ÿ˜ถ๐Ÿคฃ

    I spotted two townies sitting in the village square and cross-stitching.

    Thanks for creating the thread @_sims_Yimi
    It's exciting to see all your photos. I can hardly wait to try out the game :)
    I unfortunately had trouble downloading the game ๐Ÿ˜ญ
    It finally succeeded after I logged out of the origin and logged in again.
    The time here is close to midnight so I probably won't get to take pictures until tomorrow ๐Ÿฅฑ

    Here are mine...

    I think I like the llamas the most. This is my sim selfie brushing a llama for which I think it is loving it. I tried to pet it first and the llama spat on my sim selfie....rude! :grimace:

    cottage-living-3.jpg?w=700


    Then the chickens were my second favorite.
    cottage-living-4.jpg?w=700


    With the wild rabbits my third....for now.
    cottage-living-5.jpg?w=700


    Will check out the cows and foxes at a later time. I think EA/Maxis did a great job with this latest Pack.

    @LegacySims2017 The llama's little happy face as your simself is brushing him nawww ๐Ÿ˜

    As all the mods are broken now, I grabbed a spare sim for a new playthrough. She's a loner that doesn't like people.

    She met the grocery store lady on day two.

    I don't know what this is, but I'm all for it. ๐Ÿ˜‚

    Also a bonus that made me almost fall off my chair laughing:

    I didn't get to do much since I always start by purging worlds and rebuilding. But the main lot my sims are going to farm on is a tree house and under it I built this swamp. Love how it came out.
    Even if they can't swim I love that the pond is interactive and sims can walk threw it even at different levels. Going to finish it up today. Need to work on the vines and surrounding area.

    My sim tried to provoke Agnes by being romantic with her boyfriend at the town square just as Agnes was closing her stall and leaving. But she didn't notice them.

    First baby chick! It's a little rooster.

    (I'm regretting a little that I started my game in the winter because all my screenshots are gloomy. But I only have one day left until spring.)

    @Babykittyjade , your swamp looks magical! I'm not sure if I would have guessed it's a Sims screenshot at all, it looks so otherworldly.

    This little bird is adorable, but at the same time it made me laugh because it looks like a badminton ball.

    @PalmArrow That bird is so cute! I love how they swarm around you when you sing to them.

    I think so far this is my favorite picture. I love that the hens automatically seek company with the cow ... or maybe they seek protection.

    Hello cow, shall we be friends?

    The cow's gaze made me burst into laughter :joy:

    The next morning, Anne tries to calm the cow before milking.

    Little Klara loved meeting the bunny, and luckily the bunny seemed to enjoy being patted! (apologies for the stinky diaper :D )

    @Babykittyjade that swamp looks amazing! Any chance you're sharing your creation?

    @PalmArrow I did not expect a reference to badminton on the forums. Man, I miss that sport. I'm curious to what traits Agnes's boyfriend has. ๐Ÿ˜„ lots of bag-slapping incoming...

    I made a sim named Emma Meade who is expecting the Creature Keeper's child. Not sure if the child will have any special traits (like Father Winter's children), but we shall see. And they, of course, woohoo'd in the animal shed. Cute animation with hay flying everywhere and then making a heart. Very cute. lol

    ANIMAL-SHED-WOOHOO.png



    UPDATE ON THIS: If your sim marries Michael Bell, the Creature Keeper, and has a baby, there is no special trait. Also, once the Creature Keeper comes out of the Bramblewoods, there is another Creature Keeper that takes their place. So, this works like the Hermit in Granite Falls.

    The last day of winter was finally a bright, sunny day in my game, so I was just marveling at how pretty everything was and I took a lot of pictures.

    Z11Qjzt.png

    More under spoiler cut:
    Agnes was sitting alone and cross-stitching on a bench, but when she noticed my sim spreading New Year's Eve cheer with the villagers she came over to speak to her angrily.

    My sim then went to visit a wild bunny she is befriending.

    YHUPNBE.png

    Because the calendar showed New Year's eve, I almost missed the fact that there was also a cow fair.

    OyrjjMU.png

    My sim doesn't keep cows, so this was her chance to socialise with one.

    I don't know why the mayor and the cow are staring at each other like this!

    @mercuryfoam , oops, I hadn't noticed that my sentence was ambiguously worded! I meant my sim was being romantic with her own boyfriend. Agnes doesn't have a boyfriend, as far as I know!
