Cottage Living Gameplay Trailer 7/1

A lot of talk and not much content really. A whole 30 seconds of waffle about canning which is pretty clearly just herbalism recycled, cross stitching is blatantly just knitting recycled, more plant/gardening options that actually look like plants instead of bushes is nice but could've been an update, the animals sort of do the job for those interested but otherwise meh. Seemed a real struggle for them to make just 4 minutes worth of video on this pack which isn't a great sign :#

The voicover in this one was actually pretty good.

26 seconds: do we think that could possibly be a working well on the right side of the screen, or are we assuming it's just decoration?

34 seconds: are those multicolored mushrooms? Also, that looks like some sort of community lot?

42 seconds: the old guy with the beard and the cap looks eerily like my dad, lol.

1:40: I don't remember who was asking about greenhouses, but it looks like maybe one of the premades comes with one already built?

1:42: ok, marketing team, I see what you're doing there.

2:46: trading the cow for animal treats? That's interesting phrasing, wonder what means? I guess it could just be an attempt to make a joke about Jack and the magic beans, not a reference to actual gameplay.

3:35: it really does look like the festival area is in a common area of the village neighborhood, rather than taking up a lot, which is what I was guessing/hoping.

I am loving the retro dresses. I wonder which of these lots might be the GC lots, or if they aren't, whether we will see them on the gallery.

Some of the canning choices are... interesting.

Loved the trailer, the red phone boxes and the village! Also, did anyone catch the innuendo about big vegetables or is my mind in the dirt? :lol:

It's not just you. The choice of eggplants was pretty much a dead giveaway that they intended that.

Ok, I so love that children can knit, will be able to stitch & help with cooking. What I don't get is why they still can't do paintings? In sims 3, children could always do paintings.

I’m wondering how groceries work. I’ve downloaded SRSLY’s cooking overhaul before because I really hate the fridge always being full thing.

Could “grocery store” be a new lot type placeable in any world? I’m really hoping if you have the lot challenge on you don’t always have to go to Henford on Bagley to get groceries.

I liked the voiceover, the lama had charm and I liked the silly transitions, their marketing team did a good job this time.

But apart from that...I'm not sure, the world doesn't feel exciting enough.

Meh. Still aint digging the pack all that much. I honestly dont think the trailer explained anything we didnt already know. Definitely a pack worth getting half off.

The British Llama was a great narrator after all these über-excited women in the previous trailers.
