Sims 4 Outdoor Retreat Thoughts????

DaniellaTim1 · November 2015

My birthday is coming up and im going to get one more game pack/stuff pack to add to my game. the one that i was thinking of getting is the Outdoor Retreat but i dont know whether to get it or a stuff pack like perfect patio stuff/spooky stuff/cool kitchen stuff. What do you guys think about Outdoor Retreat? Is is worth it?
thanks

I must admit I had a similar problem about a week ago... but I am absolutely loving Outdoor Retreat. The content I got with it, I find myself using a considerable amount. You really do get some really nice stuff that honestly I probably could not do without these days! It's got a tent, a load of outdoor seating, fire pit, and of course, Granite Falls. It IS true to an extent that Granite Falls is somewhere you have to visit, so you won't be using it everyday - but the clothes, the hairstyles, the new objects, walls and floors, I've been using them a lot!

But I've also been reliably informed that Spa Day is very good for your everyday simming needs. I'd get a game pack first - they really add some new value to the game I'm very very pleased with my purchase!

And if you're unsure, you can always buy one now and buy one for the future

Good luck with your choice

I like it, and think it's great if you want you sims to be outdoorsy and stuff. The vacation opportunity is a great addition. Granted, even though I do like it, I don't use it as much as I would like to. But, that's probably because I'm in the middle of a legacy game, so they don't get out much, lol.

As for the packs, either perfect patio or cool kitchen are good. Just depends on if one comes with an item you want/will use more than the other. Like I don't use the ice cream maker (CK) as much as I use the hot tubs (PP).

I actually regret buying the Spooky pack, and I got it on sale for less than $10. It just doesn't have any aspects that I will ever use in regular game play, even when it was October, as I don't do Halloween irl.

So it all depends on how you play.

Very good point! It depends entirely how you play!

It is great that you have decided to have Outdoor Retreat. Your sims will enjoy vacationing in Granite Falls.
Happy simming!

A side from bugs, this GP is by far one of my all time favourites in the series. It's a new theme all together and has lots of fun content. Coolers, tents, horse shoes throwing game, campfires, portable lights, hiking, cloud/star gazing, new plantlife including poison ivy, insects which you can collect, herbalism skill to make little tonics for sims to use, bear npc, beautiful new vacation world, park ranger npc, hermit npc, rentable lodges/campsite it's a really good pack.

Depends on your tastes. If you like camping or the outdoors in general, you'll probably like it.

It made Argus Brown's love of the outdoors all the more prevalent, and I love it. I love buying the packs, they give me the opportunity to pick and choose what I like.
