We sort of had Strangerville where we had to clean and avoid contact with the infected sims. :neutral:

They do that, they kill their franchise.

Amusement Parks

Romantic getaway for a couple to isolate themselves from the rest of the world & just be lovey-dovey with each other.??

I would want Fun Fair similar to the board walk and GP with Wear wolfs and Fairies.

I would want a dangerous, spirit, ghostly theme for the next pack.

@Karon I think it’s possible that horses may be coming not as pets (meaning not part of the household, less developed than in TS3), but rather farm animals that can be used as mean of transportation and that you have to take minimum care of (feed, clean), I think this version could fit in a game pack.
Again pure speculation on my part :) .

Honestly, I'd stop playing TS4 if that were the case. I've been waiting for horses since release.

But why would a farming pack have horses as pets? Farm animals are working animals.

@secretlondon123 if you look at them like objects... ok but they aren't working animals. You can have a pet horse, Lady Gaga had one. Some people have pigs and chickens as pets too. I t depends on how you perceive their existence as animals and friends or food and working animals.

But that's not really farming, though?

I know this is the sims - the animals are going to be cute and not taken to an abattoir. I expect what we'll get is crops/gardening with some picking/jam/wine etc. We'll also get some toy/pet animals which will be cute and pet-like. The nearest we'll come to animal husbandry will be chickens laying eggs.

It will be aimed at young girls, and young girls in adult women's bodies.

You appear to be unaware of just how dark a young girl's mind can go...

We could also have sheep and wool, cows/goats and milk. If we get pet animals out of a farming pack, it most likely will be horses because horses are already in the code.

And my mom had a dozen horses on a non-commercial farm. Ask horse people - they're companions, not just working animals.

I would love some bouncy goats, some happy llammas, or even a territorial male sheep. Even if you keep one as a pet, you would still need to milk or shear them. Chicken lay eggs even if they are pets.

@crocobaura exactly, you don't need to kill/torture or treat animals bad for them to provide meat/food. Of course in highly industrial farms they end up suffering, but we are talking about small farmers. You could have pigs as a pet and to get their poo to fertilize the plants (like a the best super fertilizer or something crazy in sims like a golden poo that makes your plant sell 2x more than before... then they would reset to be a regular plant and you would need to feed your pig to get more of his fertilizer haha).
Than other pets like sheeps, llamas, rabbits, cats and dogs can all have their fur trimmed to make wool in real life.
Some of them, as well as cows, can provide milk... you could make chees out of it, or butter or whatever...
chickens could give you feathers (like, not forced, but those that fall naturally) to decorate stuff/collect/craft diy stuff... they can lay eggs, roosters could wake up your sim in the morning, etc
there's a long list of things that farm animals can do/produce, but they can also all be pets if you respect them, take your time to learn their behaviours and teach them stuff.
