Be warned that you won’t find your plants growing in the dead of winter -all thanks to the Seasons expansion pack. Add a few garden plots and grow your own food for consumption and for sale. You can go green by growing some greens in the vertical garden on the rooftop of the shipping container. Because you’ll find your Sim smelling and feeling like shit. Need a bath after your meal? It’d be a toss up between staying clean and going green because your Sim won’t be able to shower for long after using the power to make a meal. Likewise, you’d find your Sim diving into a nice meal after a rigorous session of dumpster diving session. With alternative energy sources like wind turbines, solar panels, and even dew collectors, You’d find yourself working harder just so that your Sim can flush the toilet bowl. Because Eco Lifestyle will make you work doubly hard for just half the pay-off. Well, at least in The Sims 4: Eco Lifestyle. Get ready to spend more time if you’re planning to save the world. Who wears denim on denim? That said, It’s a very solid concept with many opportunities to dumpster dive for goodies, recycle unused items, and even make your own homewares and artisanal beverages. And while it succeeds in making a green statement with new upcycled clothing options, it fails terribly in making a fashion statement with how they look. From the edgy to the eccentric, these new additions are going to be the mane attraction of the game for you. And there’s a new paper bag head accessory and more piercing options too. Try out different new hairstyles including a space bun with bangs, shaved undercut, a messy up-do held together by chopsticks, or even a new beard for guys. Because who better than Sims with partially-shaved heads and septum-piercings to go with all that candle making, kombucha brewing, bug farming, and gardening. And as much as it’s a cliche, it makes perfect sense to do so. It seems almost hard to avoid the stereotypes when the game is all about living the eco-friendly lifestyle. Possibly the most political expansion pack in The Sims 4 to date, its developers are definitely making a statement about going green. For instance, you’d find your Sim wheezing and coughing in the smoggy environment of a heavily-industrialised neighbourhood. Fortunately, Eco Lifestyle is an exciting and extensive addition that falls closer to the latter on the expansion pack spectrum.Įvery neighbourhood from Glimmerbrook and San Myshuno, to the all-new Evergreen Harbour, can result in eco-footprints affected by your gameplay. From the unexciting Get to Work, and the uneventful Get Together, to the game-changing Pets, and life-changing Seasons. With The Sims 4 expansion packs, you always get hits or misses. Lives up to its name of being eco-friendly.
