This should definitely include the large exotic pets i mentioned in particular. :grin:

Oooh and what if they had a Russian accent for your Zoi! You certainly did your homework, not just “hey…add THIS”. I hope they consider your suggestion!

Thank you :wink:

A Russian-inspired city sounds pretty cool actually. I’ve been hoping for a European city for ages, and that would certainly be something very different from what we already have. Though I suspect the next city will be the French-style ‘Lavender City’ some people found references to in the data files.

Of all the DLC proposals, this one is the strangest :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

It feels like people really think we just have a couple of beautiful streets in Saint Petersburg, the Kremlin in Moscow… and for thousands of kilometers around there’s only snowy taiga with the occasional wooden huts :cold_face:

Just the other day I posted my own photos from both Petersburg and the suburbs, taken literally in June. But judging by the main post, in the “Russian DLC” everything should be completely different :grin: Everywhere — fashion, style, little restaurants, museums, high technology, and impressions of Russia — a snow-covered lake…

Let’s pick something truly worthy of implementation instead. Here, @LeeLoo shared a series of stunning photos of Altai. And I’ll take some from both cities and from “ethnic” areas. I won’t repeat my own photos, but I’ll still add a couple from Peterhof.

Traditional Russian wooden architecture:

Palaces and mansions:

From fields and playgrounds in an apple orchard in the city to a country house and city embankments:

From a modern sauna in the forest and a bathhouse on the shore to a Russian hut and palace interiors:

Traditional Russian holidays and dances, of course:

And of course, winter activities:

This is just a tiny fraction of what could be implemented in this DLC in addition to all the wonderful natural scenery shown above.


Yes, I won’t deny it — there are those “wonderful” places shown by @mzhigarina :grin: I’ll say more: I would REALLY like it if InZOI also had the ability to build places like that! Mud, puddles, “Khrushchyovka” apartments — all of this would help create very unusual places. For example, if someone played “S.T.A.L.K.E.R.” — I think you understand what I mean. The contaminated zone of Chornobyl is represented by exactly this kind of ruined architecture, and you could recreate something truly apocalyptic-looking. Especially together with the ability to adjust the level of cleanliness in the city, which can so dramatically transform an entire city :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: :+1:

You won’t believe it, I thought so too. And then I found them in Penza! A bit away from the center, you go into the courtyards — and there they are, benches, and actually “active” ones, with elderly women and all the necessary atmosphere in the form of flower gardens they planted themselves :grin: I got such a wave of nostalgia, it almost made me tear up! :rofl:

P.S. I see the message was edited and there are more than 3 pictures now. Well, that’s already better :wink: :+1:

@Carnel, well, you found grandmas and now I want to go to Penza! :joy:
You complemented the post beautifully with lovely photos, and I’ll just show you our Moscow.
Bears with accordions don’t walk around here, unfortunately. :laughing: But we celebrate Christmas and New Year really well.

These are just the streets of Moscow

Parks and walking areas

Transport – river tram, regular tram, and metro station

Moscow at Christmas and New Year. There are bears here :joy:
