It looks beautiful so far. Most eagerly anticipated pack ever for me. I wish we had the early release offer on console though. But never mind, I'm just happy it's on it's way and I really appreciate the background work that has gone into it, seeing the behind the scenes attention to detail. It looks like a lot of love went into it's creation š.

Definitely a labor of love! I love seeing the top requests come to fruition š
Babies and horses are checked off, just got to get the spiral staircases approved now š
@EA_Cade I have to say that I'm cautiously optimistic about this pack. :-) I'm probably in the minority here but I'm more excited about the world and the BB items than I am about the horses. I think I need that guitar in the bonus items! Also, the new world does look really beautiful!
By the way, as much as I would love a spiral staircase, can we prioritize Fairies first? Or maybe a spiral staircase can be included in the Fairies pack? ;-)
Yeah, I love the world! I also play in Strangerville for the southwest vibe. I feel like you might have used the town square of the place I went to college as a reference! Also my sister lives in Albuquerque and I love the area. Iām getting Santa Fe vibes for Chestnut Ridge and it is :chef kiss:!!!
@PipMenace Yeah, my family is from Texas, so between that and the New Mexico vibes the world looks SO homey.
We did NOT have horses. My father had asthma and glasses and ran department stores. Yee ha šš¤£
But the horses look great and I canāt wait to play with them!
The Sims TeamI love Austin!
My family was mostly in Dallas, but when my father retired he moved to San Antonio, another awesome city.
In the middle of the English countryside, the first thing I see each day out of the window is a field full of horses. We sometimes see community police on horses too, we get horses trotting past the house on the way to our rural walk which was converted from old train tracks and my friend has a pro carriage racing stable. Sigh, all these horses and none of them are mine. So I can't wait... even though my own horses will be pixelated.
But I also see potential for Glimmerbrook/occult worlds with the unicorn (even if it may just be a unicorn costume as there is some debate about whether it's real or not). I'm so getting a unicorn for my Wiccan!
Community ManagerDefinitely agree that Moonwood Mill could use some log cabins, especially on the lot by the river! You could build such a nice mini-farm there for gardening and nectar making. Of all the build items shown so far in the trailers, which are you most excited about?
No horses for me growing up either since we're "city folk" so I'm very excited to play with them too! Is there a specific feature that's got you most excited so far, like raising foals or trail riding? I personally can't wait to have my own rodeo and do some barrel racing š
Glimmerbrook would be a gorgeous world to start a ranch! Windenburg might be a fun choice too if you're looking for something similar to the English countryside- plus it has a couple of great 64x64 lots which would be excellent for a larger farm or ranch. Are there any other worlds you might start a ranch in, or are you thinking of mostly sticking to Chestnut Ridge?
@EA_Solaire I'm actually starting with a cottage living neighbourhood first because I was planning to rebuild a farm I had in my last game. So I'll have it ready for launch day and it will finally get the horses it missed the last time.
Literally never been so excited!
@EA_SolaireIt may be a small thing, but honestly, that log cabin wallpaper. And the columns/spandrels. I'd love to redo this cabin with them: https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/pc/gallery/011A1B06EF7111EC8CA4566FAF7AD0DA?category=all&searchtype=ea_origin_id&sortby=downloads&time=all&searchquery=PipMenace&max=50&maxis=false
The wine barrels - excuse me, nectar aging barrels - are also great. I'd love to build a winery! I already have several wine grape varieties as cc...
Edit to add: I am in love with this goat. New Sims mascot.
I have to say I might be just a little more excited about the horses after watching the live stream. :-) The mini goats and sheep are adorable! I also like that there is a bit of cross pack gameplay with them as well as with the nectar making. Maybe I misunderstood but it seems like Vampires might be able to enjoy some plasma fruit nectar soon?
Iām really excited for my Super Sim. Sheād run out of skills and aspirations. Soā¦ sadly, I think itās time for a Rite of Dissolution so she can do werewolves and then move to the ranch! She thanks you for new skills and aspirations!
Iām alsoā¦ I have a sim who was supposed to be a rancher, so I gave him the Animal Enthusiast trait and the Country Caretaker aspirationā¦ in Strangerville. š¤£ Heās since come a long wayāended his bad marriage, went to university in economics, became a conservationistābut now that his son has grown and become a conservationist, too, maybe he should follow his dreams and move to Chestnut Ridge. He can commute to Sulani. š
I saw that, too! I had a lot of fun making fizzy plasma with my vampires. š¤£ They specifically mentioned werewolves and spellcasters, too, so Iām really curious!
