- Was gonna hold off on it for the most part, since I have perhaps two sim families that garden in making a living off of it and the only thing to add to that farm life to me would be the animals, but seeing the trailer I saw a lot of things that caught my interest.
-Kids/children having more things to do with playing and feeding farm animals
-Kids able to help adults with cooking in familiy/group activity
-Ordering groceries to your home (though I feel it might end up being a patch update perhaps?)
-Canning/Jams which is tied to the cooking skill and you can do it on the stove
-Gardening contests as well as submitting cooked dishes for contests as well.
(Looks like it has a bit more substance compared to things like festivals and the like)
-Crops being able to grow bigger visually.
Can't wait to see more information on it when a gameplay trailer and livestream come. - I usually wait for a sale but I want this pack too much. I’m going to try to hold off but I’m probably buying in release or shortly after.
- yes and I applaud the devs for finally releasing a pack that the players wanted so badly. I wish we could also get sheep, goats, ducks and geese.
The English countryside would not be complete without them. I live on a small farm and my neighbors have ducks, geese, goats and cows. Water fowl have great personalities and sheep are just so charming. I have horses and was hoping for them too but I think all the new gameplay makes up for the missing horses. - I am doing my best to talk myself down from immdeately getting it without a sale, which has been my general rule. Farming isn't quite my forte in terms of what I want, even if I can think of some households I've played it would be nice to have. Also since I'm not a builder, it's nice to let everything sort of sit and play out so I can reap the gallery rewards.
- I may not get it on release day, but plan to by the weekend. However, if there are massive bug issues, I will wait.
- I went ahead and prepurchased, because I had it in the budget right now, and because I like to encourage them with positive reinforcement when it's called for. Money talks, and as this was something much of the community, including me, was asking for and it looks well-executed, I'd like to send a message about that by buying it asap at full price. Just like I sent a message when I don't buy packs, or buy them only 50%.
That being said, I probably won't actually play for a week or two after it drops, partly to see what bugs it has, and partly because I have a work deadline right around that time. (And during the hours I'm not at work, it will be a particularly hot, sweaty, exhausting time of the year in my own garden, so I suspect I may find that particular pack slightly less charming at that moment than I otherwise will.) - Pre-ordered shortly after the trailer dropped.
- Most definitely YES....
Not sure about pre-ordering or release day but I will be getting this pack. - Absolutely :love:
- Maybe. I like the garden to table lot trait. At least on paper. I'm waiting to see if any other features stand out to me to make it worth the $40.
