Wasn’t it just called Aurora and not Aurora Borealis or Aurora Australis?

Correct, just the Aurora!

Yeah, I thought so, but the article says otherwise…
On the road it looks like car marks a little

It would be so cool if Sims reacted to it while stargazing.
In the live steam I thought the said it was simply an Aurora and not a Aurora Borealis/Australis?

gosh what a bucket of mean people here again… the writer made a mistake and what? just say it and move on or don’t say anything and try to be a little bit more adult. are you all kids or resentful people in the sims community?
Also, the official Sims reveal lists aurora borealis. George mentioned it in the live stream because he was trying to explain it was only an aurora, but even the Sims team is not on the same page. https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/the-sims-4/news/eco-lifestyle-reveal “You determine whether the skies are smoggy or clear enough to see the aurora borealis glimmering above.” It really isn’t a big deal, though!
Guys your making the name a big deal? It is not about the name its about what it looks like smh.

I loooove how pretty this looks!! I know a lot of people are hating on this pack, but I’m genuinely so excited for it. I love that we’re getting a unique idea for a pack instead of just remaking worse versions of packs from previous Sims franchises. At first I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about this one but I was sold as soon as they said the environmental game play wasn’t limited to the new neighborhood.

Wow! Looks very real! 🙂

It’s not the Aurora Borealis, it’s just an aurora. The aurora Borealis is the NORTHERN lights and the aurora Australis is the Southern lights. They confirmed in their live stream that it was neither.
What? Can you make the Sims 4 to be free from 29th may to 30th may. Just do it. I have never played a Sims game ever. And where I come from, there is no WiFi. Just once. Please.
