And if I really need extra lots, I can just have an out-of-town shopping district or family who live in another part of the country/world, as it's so easy to travel between them.
Newcrest is my “catch-all” location for commercial lots (no residential there), and I really like using the green screens that come with Get Famous to set up the exterior scenery so it looks like any one of those lots could be in another one of the worlds when I do my screen shots. I can set rooms up too so they’re a bit like a movie stage for scenes without needing to be “on location” in that other world. It’s a tiny bit more work, but not too much more and I’ve never felt the need to have huge worlds.
I like small worlds. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever used all the lots that came with the base game much less all of the lots in Windenburg. I think I could be very happy with the 12 lots in Henford-on-Bagley. Most of them will end up being residential anyway because of how I use Newcrest as described above.
But that’s the way I play anyway. To each their own.
In the movies they sometimes film in one place and make it look like another. So they can pretend thier in France without actually travelling. I imagine that’s to keep costs down.
I like the idea of having a commercial world. ?
