Cottage Living Gameplay Trailer 7/1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlYojESNBIg

Oh my, so much info at such a speed. I feel dizzy, but in a happy way. The only catch in this pure state of happiness is that I did not see a map... got to re-watch 10 or 20 times right away :)

There're multiple jams your can make with the canning skill and the new lot challenge type seem awesome!
Edit:
16 jams : blackberry, green apple maybe more gooseberry, (1 dont' know what it is, a no green something sign with a red/pink square in it), grape fruit?, chocolate, cow plant?, milk and egg, aubergine/eggplant, cabbage, egg only?, strawberry, cherry?maybe more tomato in fact, raspberry, pumpkin, water melon, mushroom.
34 designs for cross stitch or from references.

"Gather your consumables for consumption into an easily placeable picnic that makes anywhere your dining den of decadence!"

Anywhere except the ground, apparently.

I lurve the red phone boxes, I wonder if they are useable.

Did not like the woohoo in the cowshed - disappearing into that black void did not look good! Shame on them for that.

New foods, I think I spied Yorkshire pudding on it's own lol, crumpet, toad-in-the-hole, beef wellington, possibly gooseberry pie and I have no clue what the others were.

I liked the trailer, but there wasn't tons of new info really as far as I can tell.

Canning having 16 options is good. Animal shed woohoo. Fox alarm on the chicken co-op.

Actually the most interesting bit for me was the lot challenges UI - off the grid is there instead of as a lot trait. I wonder if lot challenges are going to be patched in as base game for future use, with off the grid being base game and wild foxes and simple living being tied to the pack.

I really loved this gameplay trailer, and it's made me even more excited for the new expansion!


Also... Did I hear cross stitch from reference?! So excited!

Animal shed. That shed can be used for LLamas as well.

Boy Henford on Bagley is beautiful but unfortuanly they didn't say a lot about the world that we don't know yet like lot sizes however I expected this as the Livestream Next Week will focus on that.

Seems like this time around there's a lot of male clothing. That's good because more clothing for males is always appreciated. See they got some new sleep wear via a new robe and I love it.

Probably use the simple living lot trait with a lot of played house holds in not having a bottomless fridge. Def give my sim a reason to spend money on ingredients.

Also I'm surprised you can stitch from reference like you would a painting, which is awesome in making for some unique ones. So, got a bit more information on things though majority we know if you've been keeping up with the Guru's Q&A before.

I'm happy that you can participate in various competitions for more variety and being able to participate. Thought it'd just be gardening and cooking competitions, so nice to see them for the cow's and chickens too along with their produce.
