    Did they take My First Petty Stuff trailer out of the channel? I'm pretty sure nothing will ever top that.

    I was not excited about the leaked farm pack at all so maybe people don't like this pack because its another mini game played in only one of world and in this case just a horrible theme. I really wonder the number of people who played Strangerville story more than once this is just the same.

    There have been multiple tweets from the gurus saying this will not be like Strangerville, aka. story driven. It will probably be more like a pollution/environmental simulator, where you do different tasks to make the environment either better or worse. Almost like a scale. Hopefully, this means that there will be varying degrees of polluted/healthy environment, which can manipulated by the player's choices. The only comparable things to Strangerville is that it will probably only be in one world and there will be a choice to change something about the world. Players can choose to live in pollution or not.

    Personally, I think the pollution looks awesome, and wish I could spread it to other worlds, like San Myshuno. But I'm pretty sure it's restricted to this world. The real question is how much content is there outside of this specific world that makes this pack replayable?

    Do you mean on the cover art for the pack? They all look off to me. Their faces are distorted. The woman's face is all stretched out, and the guy's face is too narrow.

    Looks to me like there's a lot of machines lying around that we never see the use of and people selling things, so this pack could have a lot of ways to craft and make money outside of gardening.

    Some people don't like having too much money, to which I say "Then don't work so hard." If you don't want your Sim to have so much money, you can go out and party all night - or work on the environment.

    so they came out with a globilist climate change pack? must be made in california lol

    Yep. On all counts. It's supposed to be set in a coastal place, so maybe we get Frisco? Saw the video and it comes across as PC propaganda. I'm all in favor of living in an environmentally responsible manner, even do it, but this is just using a 'game' as a tool for indoctrination. Not to mention not being new at all.

    This sounds ridiculous to me. There are millions games which appriciate the violance, murder and crimes in their game concept as lifestyle. But when one game includes climate change, that's suddenly propaganda of PC and indoctrination? Are you seriously?

    I hate the idea of this pack as much as the next guy, but I will never for the life of me understand why taking care of the earth is considered political.

    It's not. Someone has to clean up after the trash that tourists and homeless and slobs and hoarders leave on the ground and everywhere. Places don't stay clean if no one looks out after them otherwise people would be swimming in trash at the beaches, lakes, and rivers.

    Yeah Dystopian mode was awesome. There were three modes, Utopian and normal world which looks like the Sims 4, and Dystopian world and world was called Oasis Landing. The homes were so amazing. Your Sim could travel to the future and see if they had great great grandchildren or not and depending on how successful your Sim was in the past determined the fate of the future generation.

    Also was funny in the Sims 3 University pack, they had a blue plumbob statue for their plans for the Sims 4 Online which didn't pan out.

    @sam133, Just curious if you have record of the like / dislike counts of every pack’s preview trailers prior to the launches of their gameplay trailers, livestreams, and actual releases?

    No I do not sadly but I don't think releases would make much of a difference of the initial trailers likes/dislikes.

    With regards to the title of the thread, I'm gonna say that no, those three packs do not satisfy any needs I have for ecology and - this does not mean you HAVE to play in a green world - they shouldn't satisfy anybody who wants to 'go green' because if they did you'd have some SERIOUSLY low standards for it. Island Living is the only pack that comes close, and that's not the focus anyway. In fact Island Living doesn't really have a focus apart its Mermaid/Hawaii theme, which kind of spoils it.

    I imagine there will be players desperate to make the world as polluted and dirty as possible. And it's your world. You rule. Populate it with Indians and rename the city New New Dehli. We'll see humourous Let's Plays on it, like the guy who deliberately put water pipes downstream of sewer pipes in Cities Skylines, or those who delight in forcing their Sims to die in their own filth.

    It's not something to be ashamed of, nor is it a reason to think the pack is bad, because that kind of experimentation is part of the game in The Sims. I'd be more disappointed if it wasn't a continuous thing.

    Have you not seen the homes in the trailer? It has Tiny Living written all over it.

    People were building tiny homes LONG before the release of Tiny Living.
