Would you buy a real eco-living GP?

So one that includes everything from off the grid, nectar making/food preserves, carbon footprint and possibly chickens and other animals you could use to make eggs, sell, or eat? :)
  • Oh definitely! Still really curious what they could do with this theme now that laundry's out of the way.
  • It's what I wanted out of the SP, so I would probably buy an GP that expanded on the original theme.

    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.


    Actually, laundry was one of the possible options for this pack from the start and the only reason it won the theme vote. In the original theme vote, this was the description of "Eco Living" (which could mean a lot of things to different people): "Adopt new home technologies to help your Sim with domestic responsibilities and live an eco-friendly life. Potential areas of focus include laundry, home technology and solar energy." So, it wasn't added later. Also, the 4 gameplay options were laundry, off the grid, food preserves, and carbon conscious. Laundry won the vote. It was a community stuff pack and more people in the community wanted laundry than any of the 3 other options (which are all gameplay features mentioned by the OP above). It's comical that people keep trying to blame the devs.....this was a community pack and the community picked laundry, not the devs.

  • I do a lot of rags to riches and prefer to have my sims living off the land anyhow so this is a no brainer for me.
  • I always like to see what's in the pack first and how well the game seems on camera (forever watching reviews on YT) but I enjoyed the look of the Laundry Stuff when I saw videos overviewing that so I probably would.
