Are you going to purchase Eco Lifestyle?

@Colton147147 asked "Are you going to purchase Eco Lifestyle?"

A no means never ever EVER. A yes means either immediately, or at a later date. Could be 2042 when you purchase it. :D

Just keep saying 'Yes', folks.

I hoped the first "yes" was the right one :D

But yes, I'll be getting it. I'm a builder, I'm always looking for new stuff. And the latest packs have provided a lot of great BB stuff.

As for the world...I don't know. Hoping there is a way to "skip the story" once I've done it once. Just like Strangerville, I don't want to repeat it for every save I have.

Undecided.

I'm looking forward to seeing more on the pack and, for the first time, I may wait and see how the expansion affects people's game play. If the "dirty" effect can be applied to all worlds (as we pick and choose), then that's a huge thing to me. The only other thing I really want to see is how "compelling" it'll be to actually clean up the world.

Yes, but not anytime soon (tm) based on the trailer and blog-post I've seen so far. I'm a completionist and want access to all content, but if the new product feels somehow lacking or uninteresting or has a theme that just doesn't appeal to me then I won't buy it until it's on some serious sale. Right now, from what I've seen it has a new world, that looks fantastic but makes your sims have all kinds of negative moodlets or have health problems, which you can change so your sims feel better, but makes that world an ugly hippie commune. I would have preferred if there were an option to upgrade the neglected rundown industrial style neighborhood to a shiny futuristic high tech industrial style neighborhood instead of one made out of garbage housing. I like that there are additional hobby objects that allow your sims to craft items as well as the solar panels and wind turbines. Some of which seem to be leftover ideas from the community vote pack that resulted in the Laundry Day pack, so I'm happy team Maxis found a way to include these in a pack after all. For the rest of the regular buy items, mostly furniture, from what I glimpsed in the trailer, I'm less enthousiastic. I like modern style furniture, run down or weathered furniture, futuristic, artsy, gothic, fantasy, basic, classic, or historic furniture, but I abhor furniture made out of garbage and trash and I haven't seen anything I like so far in this pack. The same pretty much goes for the cas items. It was difficult to tell which cas assets were actually new except for the horrible patchwork ones. The only thing cas related that I've seen that I'm excited about are regular ring piercings and maybe one hair style, which makes the cas appeal for me rather shallow. And then there's the main feature, clearing up pollution: hard pass for me. I'd rather go bowling, which I can, because there's a stuff pack for that. Or drive a while in my car or on my motorcycle, or go surfing, or tend to the crops of my farm, or go horse riding, or climb a spiral staircase to have my sim get to their bed room and sleep in a bunk bed, or have my sim snuggle up to/spoon their bed partner. Customize objects and cas assets with custom patterns and colors from a color wheel, have my sims interact and express emotion based on individual personalities, wants, desires, turn offs, turn ons, interests, and memories. Have normal seized arcade games, telescopes, and microscopes. Expand on sports activities so sims can actually play a game of basketball and soccer as teams, or climb normal rock walls. Swim in any world, more different fish tail options in cas for merfolk, playable permanent plant sims, werewolves, and faeries. The list goes on and on, all of which I can't and I'm seeing this expansion pack and can't help but wondering where's all of that. Clean up a town and then what, what else is in this pack? Aside from more bugs (I'm looking at you no-chicken-coop insect housing thingie).

NO NO NO

I never pre-order. I mean, it's a DOWNLOAD.

Pre-ordering can bring benefits. I pre-ordered it cos I am getting it at 37% off. It may not remain at that price if I waited.

You left me no choice ????
But yea I was plotting on it anyway. The Eco theme still doesn't wow me beacuse it's just not my playstyle. But everything sure does!! From what I learned about the pack so far there is a LOT of awesome ways I can integrate this into my story

I'm looking forward to the new pack.

I DON'T KNOW. I need to see more than that little blurb which told me very little. I don't wish to be lectured on how to live green. So, I do hope there is much, much more to this EP than it showed. I am not all that interested. Sounds as if it should be a SP, actually.
