This world looks amazing, with a lot of nature, but everything else in the world leaves me cold. And wet. Bloody rain... If I moved there I might have to turn Seasons off. Seriously, why would anyone want to play in a world like that?
The bottom line is that I... feel as empty towards this pack as I feared I would. I won't ever use the farm animals, and the world was just... drab. Amazingly detailed but drab.
Edit: Regarding the weather; I guess there is a huge difference if you say do "gameplay demos" from the world with only that pack installed. I imagine you get much more sunlight without Seasons installed...? SO all those pre-release gameplay videos on youtube with constant sunlight are... not true.
Another reason not to get Seasons. I'm confused how that pack rates so high.
Yeah... to me Seasons is mostly an obstacle, getting in the way of gameplay.
That is exactly how I feel about Seasons. I'm trying to like it but it's just not working. I'm using it right now as a challenge because of the gardening, with different plants usable in each season, that's ok. But honestly, I really don't like that pack, and I've had it nearly a year! I'm about ready to turn off the weather effects; I'm wondering how or if that will change things (other than eliminating freezing to death and lightning strikes). Yeah, it makes things pretty in the fall and if it snows, but otherwise, what is the big deal? The only good thing I can say about having it is that at least I bought it 50% off.
"okay, I had to scrap all my plans for today because there's a rain storm so I can't do any proper work outside. Oh look, my bug farm just died because I didn't get out and cuddled it in the thunderstorm". Yeah sure, it's like real life, but it's annoying AF.
Not to mention the mass deaths of NPC sims in pools during winter. Mostly fixed now, but I had a paparazzi freezing to death in the Center Park in San Myshuno because she was wearing a swimsuit in a snowstorm.
