Empty countryside in CoL?
Broke down and got the pack over the weekend, couldn't resist the British charm - it strikes an inner chord - and the animals. It's been huge fun so far, taken up way more time than intended, and is ...

I would have thought they didn't add more harvestables in the open areas to increase the challenge for the errands. It's difficult though as a lot of people (me excluded) are looking for everything to be available asap.

Same goes for taking care of crops and animals.
But that's only my personal opinion.
Moreover, there isn't that much to be done in an open rural area or the woods in real life, is there?
I love to think that they also were looking ahead in the future of the Sims 4 and providing rideable areas for horses.
They also added another bike for early buyers and I think these areas are great for biking.
Thank you, everyone, for your input. It appears the emptiness is a deliberate thing, though I wonder whether it's been taken a bit too far. From personal experience while living in New Hampshire years ago such areas are good for finding blue berries, raspberries, and black berries - not vast plots of them (though that can happen), but not scarcer than hen's teeth, either. If one knows what to look for and where, herbs should be abundant. I don't expect to find wild lemon trees, but apple, pear, and cherry should be at least present. Maybe it will take a visit to the real Cotswolds to to have a more accurate picture of what's out there. I'm not holding my breath on the horses, though it would be nice. Fox hunts, anyone?
