'I missed the Sims 3 open worlds so much that I decided to try and do something similar, that would make the worlds feel a bit more alive in-game,' explains Arnie. If you need to get a loan for said farm, you can walk into the bank and procure one, or head to city hall to get the proper permits – again, without loading screens.

The farms and fields area alone is bigger than five of the largest Sims 4 lots combined, and is divided up into pieces of land you can purchase in order to get your farm on. You'll encounter an initial loading screen to travel to Eden Hills, but once you're there, you can freely visit five huge lots that have multiple, massive open areas within each of them. Eden Hills replaces the Sable Square neighborhood in Brindleton Bay, which comes with The Sims 4 Cats and Dogs expansion). Farmland is a bit different, as it mixes open world areas with traditional Sims 4 gameplay features.įarmland takes the semi-open world concept and runs with it to the bank (which you can actually visit with this mod). In Arnie's popular Brookheights open world mod, there was a mix of Open Venues your Sim could explore without a loading screen and rabbit holes, which are areas in which your Sim disappears to complete a task. For many Simmers, the lack of an open world breaks the immersion of The Sims 4, as there's nothing quite as jarring as going to visit your next door neighbor just to immediately get a loading screen.
