- Definitely, and that's what I thought we would end up with when I voted for it.
Then more and more people jumped on the laundry train and I was well disappointed :| - I wouldn't buy it for the "eco" part, but I would only get it for objects like nectar making, beekeeping, fruit preserves, etc. I like my sims to craft things and sell them. Loved the butter churn in the Sims. And the beehive and rocking chair was one of the reasons I bought Supernatural, since I don't play with fairies and the like. If a pack has things that I like, then I'll buy it.
- Yes please! Anything that allows me to play more off-the-grid rags-to-riches type sims & saves is good by me!
- elelunicyNew SpectatorI wouldn’t want a Eco-Living GP if there are only 4-5 game packs left in TS4’s life span. There are so many better themes they could do.
- icemanfreshSeasoned NewcomerI think the idea of food preserves is interesting, as well as farming your own meat and dairy. Overall, it depends on how it's done, but I'd be open to an eco living GP.
- I thought this last one was supposed to be an eco pack. With my luck, a different eco pack would start that way, and then the guru organizing it would say, "Okay, if you want CARS in this pack, you need to speak up!" And then one of the choices would be a Prius and people would say, "See, it IS an eco pack!"
Fortunately, for me, Laundry Pack means I save $10. - Oh yeah I would love to spend ten dollars on one animated object and some furniture
- I think an eco-living pack has some real potential. I've tried to cobble together off-grid living for various poverty stricken sims but it's difficult. One of my sims lived in a storage facility with his toddler daughter. They had a cooler, but you can't get food for a toddler from a cooler. They had candles to light the place, but I wish there were wind up lamps or radios. I also wish there was a way to disconnect cell phones.
If a house was off-grid, there could be a water filtration system, which would work great with seasons, when we get it. In the summer months, maybe the water storage tank would run dry. Or they can have a well. These eco things wouldn't need to be their own pack--they could go hand-in-hand with a farming GP. Irrigation for plants from rain barrels. Plants that die from being over-watered. You could introduce a goat pen as an object, like babies are, from which you could get milk or hair. Hair can be spun. Hobbies like sewing and knitting could make a comeback. I'd buy that pack. - It might be more interesting if they made it "Rural Living". A lot of the things mentioned could still be in it, but it would be easier to theme it. I think there could be more farm type items with interesting use than living off the grid; things like solar panels and such you really wouldn't notice, other than a change in bills.
- I think there is enough content and popularity among the community to warrant a full rural living EP instead of just a GP.
