    That will change in a few months when the next pack is released. 

  • Ahh I wish eating harvestables didn't increase natural living skill, because it feels too easy and some of my sims eat harvestables all the time and I still don't consider them to be very natural living types 😅

    Plant lover trait - I was so looking forward to this trait and now that I have played with it I am so not happy. My Sims is constantly tense, mad or sad when harvesting, eating, grafting the plants. Please re work this trait. Plant lovers are supposed to loved plants, harvestables.

    Yeah, Plant Lover trait took on an unexpected angle. Harvesting, flower arranging, eating, etc. can cause negative moodlets. As you are cutting/eating your friends.

    I think we expected this to be like Sims 3 Green Thumb trait but better, instead they act like a PlantSim with communicating with plants and acting like plants are their kind/babies/friends/aka personifying plants.

    I believe there is some lost in translation of previous installments' traits and Sims 4 traits. I believe Sim 4 wants to reinvent or do some traits different, and in some cases they did a nice job but in others they lack or are just confusing some players.

    I accepted that Plant Lover trait works the way it does and either have a Sim act like a Plant caretaker and just avoid harvesting/cutting/uprooting/using plants or have them as a conflicted Sim over plants and plant activities—with their moodlet swings.

  • Using most of the fairy plant powers drains your power meter a ridiculous amount, forcing you to recharge. At least that balances out with how overpowered gardening in general is, but it means that the power is mostly useless and you should just stick to using the crazy amount of Fairy Dust the game throws at you anyway. 

    Also, I can't tell what the point of the new potted plants are. They barely grow or require any upkeep. You name them and... that's it. They're basically a glorified object. I was hoping you'd have to put more effort into them, like a real plant. Let them grow to crazy amounts and look unruly. Maybe give them some quirky way to show love in return. ("Cletus loves you for watering them! They're so happy, they sprouted gold leaves that you can sell for cash.") I know plants IRL are pretty boring, but this is The Sims.  Here, they're regular harvestables, but worse. I'm just gonna use the new pots for the old harvestables we have in game.
