How's the Cottage Living so far?
My main concern...is it buggy? Are the new features really good?
Forum Discussion
My feedback comes partially from me and partially from my daughter, who is 12.
Z would give Cottage Living as many paws up as there are animals in Henford-on-Bagley...and not just because she thinks the animals are adorable.
We started a save with a single young adult male Sim, living at the lot on Cobblebottom Street that has the chicken coop. We haven't put any chickens in it yet, because Z insists we install the fox alarm first, so none of our birds will meet untimely ends.
We're trying to play the Simple Living challenge by the book. I was surprised at how enjoyable planning a menu and making a shopping list for my Sim turned out to be. I mentioned how pumped we got when we managed to catch two minnows.
One of the errands didn't work. We got a package from someone to give to the pub owner, and it appeared in our inventory. She was easy to find, but we didn't have a possible interaction with her that let us offer the package to her. The exchange has worked perfectly twice, going the other way--we got a package from someone and had to find its owner. The Aubergine Parmigiana we got for one of these tasks turned out to be something another villager wanted, so we flipped it for something else. The meals we sometimes receive have come in very handy!
We enjoy the lore we learn when we share a Henford Heart-to-Heart. We discovered that villagers are sometimes in no mood for chit-chat.
Familiar Sims from other worlds make their way to the HoB. The Bjergsens, Landgraabs, and Goths have all made appearances. Marcus Flex has added runs through Henford-on-Bagley to his fitness regimen.
We also discovered aliens find Henford-on-Bagley as charming as other Sims do. That's how our Sim ended up carrying an alien baby.
We aren't far enough into our save to experience the fairs yet. It's still Wednesday in our world.
