Farming Expansion Hints in Island Living
I just saw this on twitter and had my wig snatched. I've been wanting for a farming expansion for almost two years already so this made me so happy. https://twitter.com/Pixelade/status/113848730575...

For me, University was/is the chore.
Send sim(s) to class, write term paper/essay/project, repeat for a game week, send sim to exam, repeat the first two for another week, send sim to exam, repeat the process 4 times until the sim finally graduates and goes to the families folder to await a home of their own or be moved back in with folks.
IF they do University again, I would want it more streamlined, the whole higher education process taking just 8 game days. OR, just like in our modern day, they could have the option to take their college courses online and so study at home while working and going about their day with their family. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to a farming expansion pack over a higher education (college/university) expansion pack myself. Especially if I get my horses, chickens, and cows back and possibly add sheep, goats, ducks, geese, and alpaca/llama. As much as I would also want unicorns back, with a farming expansion I'd assume I'd have to wait for an appropriate expansion pack for them as well similarly magical/mythical pegasi, winged unicorns, dragons, firebirds, and gryphons.
