Laundry Day Hints?

I was watching the live stream for Laundry Day Stuff, and I wondered why dryness of clothes would matter. If you didn’t watch the live stream, they focused quite a bit on the “clean or dirty” factor of the clothes and the level of “dry” they are. Example: dry, damp, soaked

Maybe this has to do with wearing them and not drying the clothing properly but it didn’t look like that was an option while watching the gameplay portion. What do you think?

Maybe rain is coming in a patch? Or maybe they are just hinting for a seasons release this year?
  • Yeah at first I forgot that clothes that go in the washing machine get wet. Loool. Leave me alone, I take a while to process things aight. :D I didn't make a connection with rain though bc I only went "OOOH YEAH" at the dryness of clothes whilst watching the stream. I am sooo happy about clothes that have been swum in (swam in?) being wet though bc I always found it weird that they'd be all super dry after swimming.

    It would be cool if hair could be wet (obviously that's not something you put in the washing machine though) and like.. A sim's actual body after showers and such, but then I also feel like people would be crying like "I have to dry my sims hair now? I have to make them use a towel boooooy I already make them get up at 5:30 am pleeeease" looool. I think I just like the aesthetics of like dripping water really, but obviously it's not *that* necessary.
  • It does seem a bit strange that they make the effort to add all those levels of wetness when we have so few ways to make clothes wet. The only way your clothes get soaked for example, is in the wash tub or swimming pool? The detail they put into this makes more sense to me when I imagine seasons coming this year. I can almost smell the rainstorm!

    Well said. I completely agree. You explained this "theory" MUCH better than I did!! haha
  • I misssd that part of the livestream @Dannydanbo . Honestly, it was bit hard to sit through over 20
    Mins of laundry laundry laundry. Hahaha! Thanks for sharing about the uncomfortable moodlet. Hopefully they can tie that into a seasons pack when it happens!
  • Where was the live stream? I'm intrigued after reading these comments lol
  • They probably add that Sims leave soaked clothes piles if they have been in the rain when they do Seasons. (Hopefully the next EP later this year)

    The only thing im noticing is that the country stuff goes reeeeally well with all the country pack hints from the Cats and Dogs EP


    The country stuff also saves space in a farm pack for other things that we might want instead of that furniture. Maybe more crafting, canning or animals with sheds to tend or new crops. I'd love it if crops grew by seasons like in the real world.


    The most recent patch notes contained a solar power joke/reference twice, the second having been such an unfunny reach that my only thought was it had a purpose for being there other than being cute so im hoping solar panels will also be back.
  • Has anyone thought that when you go swimming, your clothes get soaked? That's also why clothes can get soaked? :p
