I’m not getting my hopes up until I see some gameplay from this new Expansion Pack. We do this every time with Pack trailers and then when it’s time to play, it’s nothing like what’s in the trailers.
@KenyaGirly you must be new because The Sims 4 has been doing us dirty for YEARS, modders is what’s keeping this game alive. We’re not complaining, it’s just straight facts. I’m not about to buy a game pack and there’s nothing to do, they did that with High School Years.
@KenyaGirly A majority of us has been playing The Sims since the 1st game came out, I’m one of them as well and I agree with Hannah, EA can be hella money hungry and they still be releasing unfinished or broken game packs. Like I said, we’re not complaining we’re talking straight facts. Whoever turns a blind eye is on them. The Sims 4 has a lot of potential, but a lot of us are getting tired and want actions done. So we’ll see if The Sims 4 has approved with this upcoming game pack or if they're still on their bullshit.
Tbh I don’t get parenthood vibes at all. Parenthood to me focused more on raising kids and their development. This pack seems more about family time and I’m so happy they aren’t neglecting elders.
@@dananuella9755 aaay now she's been pretty honest about her opinions all this time and she welcomes disagreement here. No need to accuse her of click-baiting.
Even tho I have no hope for TS5 I think preteens would be a great addition to the life stages to the base game since TS2 introduced toddlers and teens (I know they introduced YAs but that was just for the University EP), TS3 "introduced" YA to their base game, TS4 introduced infants (after 100 years 🙄) to their base game. I think TS5 should have a life stage to introduce and preteen should be that.
I’m team preteens (I wouldn’t think we’d need them as much in sims 4 if teens were given their own height and felt like teenagers) but I also wanted preteens since Sims 3 thinking it could be a fun age. I’m worried infants won’t be smaller than toddlers I want to tell them apart. As for Sims 5 they should do ages in groups you want to make a teen you can choose either a 13 year old or a 16 year old. Young adults 18 year olds still I’m either still in high school/starting college at 19 or people in their early to mid 20s on their way to staring adult life. Adults people in their 30s to 40s middle age 50 to 65 and elders are 65+
I’m not trying to be negative, but I’m going to wait and see real gameplay before I get too hyped. EA doesn’t have the best track record and this could be another My Wedding Stories.
Sims 4 Trailers are always very well done and it's a hype trap 😂 Some of the gameplay mechanics seem fun, but I'm definitely gonna wait on a livestream or see some sneak peaks. MWS and HSY has made me very cautious LOL.

Ok, here's the problem with both sides of the coin. On one side, Yin nails it with the comments regarding the EP feeling like a stretched out Parenthood pack. A lot of these features could have definitely been base game updates, given that there is not anything revolutionary like snowboarding in Japan, running a full-on countryside farm, exploring tombs in Latin America, small town alien mysteries (I think you guys get my drift). On the other side, while this EP could be worth while, *EA already made you pay for content that should have been a part of this EP!* Parenthood, High School Years, Toddler Stuff, Kid's Room Stuff, My Wedding Stories, etc. I'm a broken record at this point. Also, EA pay-locking infants and infant gameplay to this EP would be the absolute nail on the coffin if that's the case.
Yes there’s two dudes here but I’m definitely not getting my hopes up until I see some gameplay. They do this to often with trailers. Lol but if it equals to what’s in the trailer this pack has amazing potential
EA has been hitting the nail in the coffin for years and we ignore the signs. 2022 although was the year that crossed the line. MWS a pack that still doesn’t work and is still available, a high school pack where the high school is a joke, a HSY update that ruined everything and ofc a thousand kits.
if you want in-depth infant game play it will be locked behind a paywall per the guided tour. So milestones, infant quirks are only in the pack. Then changing station and playmats are in the pack so hopefully the crib & playpen are base game.
I know we just had HighSchool Years which was a full pack for Teen related content, but they could have at least included some teens within this trailer. It feels like this pack is very much geared towards Infants, Kids, and some sprinkle of Elders. The whole "staying over" aspect seems interesting but I hope that it isn't one sided and that you can actively go visit someone else's home for a while.
I noticed that too but let’s be honest Teens usually don’t spend a lot of time with their family(which is kinda sad tbh) but it’s the truth i was okay with them not having gameplay for teens here if it meant they focused more ok gameplay for the other lifestages💖👍
Simmers has to be the most bipolar game fanbase ever. One minute they’re excited, the next their disappointed, they’re happy for a expansion pack, mad the expansion pack is broken *as per usualI* it’s literally the same routine, every pack that’s released. Edit: a gap already been a option in the game.
Totally see you P.O.V on the situation. I hope the next video you find enjoyable, if not that’s totally fine. I report news while also stating my opinion. The comments section is open to all, even those who don’t agree with my opinion. :)
And I think they're justified in that. Two things can happen at once: you can be glad that something that you've waited so long for has finally come but still be sad that it's missing things or has broken things. I do think that some simmers get their hopes _waaay_ too high sometimes even though EA has the same track record. Still, they're justified as they paid their money 🤷🏾♀️
Simyin, you make me laugh so much. I watched Simmer Erin just to get the straight up and down news, then I wanted to see what everyone thought and the first thing I see is your skeptical face. lol
I didn’t wanna say but yeah lol they basically remade parenthood except put all the stuff that should’ve went in parenthood into an expansion and charging more for it lolllllll
I think a lot of content for Infants will be in this ep. From looking at the announcement trailer for them, a lot of the hair/clothes/objects are also showing up here. Which means either the update will have a bunch of things for Infants, like a SP or kit amount, or all of the additional gameplay will need this expansion pack
they repackaged pillow fight from high school, some animations from seasons, the slide from toddler stuff pack... hmm... interesting. So far they'll have to give me more than that to have me excited
The movie theater definitely looks like a rabbit hole but I’m actually pretty excited for this! I like playing with families so I feel that this will give more family play so I love it! Unfortunately we will most definitely be waiting for CC creators to update mods though lol I need a new laptop beforehand lol
Teens weren’t even that much in this intro that’s why high school years should have been in this pack I would have been fine if they just included prom
At this point idk how to feel. It feels like a scam that the deepest relationships and infants and all that “groundbreaking” (and ofc game breaking let’s be real) family gameplay had to arrive 9 years in. It feels too late. We had a lackluster pack such as snowy escape, we had eco lifestyle (which don’t get me wrong I think it’s pretty good), we had even fitness and bowling packs which are horrendous and a so beloved theme like that came now? 9 years for bikes for kids? 9 years for tree houses? 9 years for justice for elders? The whole parenthood game pack should’ve been fit into growing together. Jesus the cash grab. And come on I feel like most of the things in the trailer ain’t going to be there or work the way it’s promoted.I feel TS4 is EXTREMELY overstretched. I don’t wanna go to the extend and say but university and high school should’ve been merged but family gameplay should’ve been one. That’s why base game was so empty so they can upsell almost everything. I wouldn’t be impressed if next year they finally decide to release cars. Ugh.
Better Schools or Better Education, where you follow your young ones to school. Have tasks, better detailed school days, raise a certain skill, choose they're next class stage (might be a UK thing, focused future want class, subject), choose they're own extra curriculum that doesn't just involve books - ex. Art classes, are NOT just in, and from books, it is physical work too, mostly. Even throw in daycare for toddlers, now infants (should have been 'babies'...), pop ups or go with them to their daycare, toddlers days where parents/carers hang out with their child's others toddlers and parents, group work, music day, book day, etc. Even before birth classes, parent classes, this could go with parenthood, before planning pregnancy, while pregnant and after birth care/education - make friends with other parents, justice for parents!! Hah. Gain the parenting skill, or any other skill. Elders with carer days, centres, doing activities. Power Walk and elderly exercises should have been base game. If I am not mistaken, they only have the swimming pool to exercise, never tried the yoga mat. The team has complained so much about this game, to turn around and do them anyway - or just to throw off any news maybe, hah - but do so little to the doing too much which was not needed for the game. Their trailers look nice, but as said, in reality, it is all fake, shallow and useless. Jumping all over the place, than to see what is clearly in front of them, reality and made up reality. Need proper inspiration, just look at what's already there in life. Making something that seems hard, when it was in their face all along. I could say more, but communications and development through each teams for EA are so random. They don't help each other? (What company is this!? Hahah. It's dysfunctional!). Take good care. - I was looking, and thinking about all the types of games they have, sell. Oof.
I'm not getting my hopes up after highschool years but I was excited to see that game table can now do puzzles,scrabble,and dominoes. I was also excited to see the tree house and that water area and I really want a new world with apartments. I've never been to New York or San Francisco but city living gives me new York vibes so I would love a world more like San Francisco. I've been obsessed with that city since I was a kid cause my mother, grandma, and I would always watch the show charmed together.
Toddlers are getting an update in the pack too with added quirks - I still don't know how this will work with Parenthood. And children have new aspirations. They claim there will be "a new social compatibility feature, which introduces new ways of socializing that will feel different with each Sim" - but my hopes aren't high. New game play in TS4 just feels hollow.
While I am excited for this, I agree with you on literally everything. A lot of this stuff could have been included in other packs and such. Sleeping bags could've came with outdoor retreat. The rocking chairs could've came with knifty knitting. Tree house should've came with little camper kit. Why not have had both adult and child bikes in a base game update instead of splitting them both between two different packs? Bathroom clutter could have LITERALLY been included in growing together to go hand-in-hand with tooth falling out aspect. They just release so much DLC while in reality most of it should be combined. I just hope they still come out with play mats, changing table, and other infant items with the base game, and then this just being extra variety. And if all these are apart of the update, why are they showcasing them here instead of the initial infant trailer? EA just does a lot of stuff that doesn't make sense.
We did get a rocking chair with Nifty Knitting. We got a portable bed with Outdoor retreat. Kits aren’t going to come with a gameplay item unless it’s specifically a gameplay kit like “bust the dust” which is the only gameplay kit. Now if they had made the little camper’s kit a Stuff pack then I could see them putting treehouses in it. A lot of the Sims team’s decisions are influenced by their budget. They must have a set budget for each type of pack. I don’t know why EA gave them such a tight budget to work with but I hope that changed for The Sims 5.
I can’t wait for hopefully a gameplay trailer like they did for seasons. I really wanna see if there’s more than meets the eye because right now, it’s definitely feeling lacklustre to me.
I don’t think we’re getting apartments I think the “apartments” is just part of the background but with that being said if there’s apartments then I will be very pleased! Also with the bikes that’s should’ve been included with the university EP since we got bikes in that EP. With parenthood I think we should’ve gotten elderly stuff/activity. I am not gonna buy this pack until I see you and a couple other simmers play the game, I have been let down way too many times… 💀 Edit: if they were gonna add apartments I think they would’ve included it in the trailer but idk
A lot of things in this trailer makes me think they expect everyone, if not most players, to have high school years. Also, are they really making us preorder to get the baby carrier? Especially with how glitchy the previous packs have been initially?Dine out and Wedding Stories still don't work, the main aspect of High school years was severly underwhelming, but we're supposed to blindly purchase this to get a new item (ignoring the different color slide and swing, those arent even good preorder items) that should just be in the infant update or part of this pack?
You dont have to preorder, its just if u get it before april 27 adn teh pack releases the 16th of march so you have a month but i agree the preorder thing is annoying
I replaced my high school with one on the gallery. The lots are always gonna be basic because they have to ship the game with minimal things to load on each lot. I was able to have fun with HSY after that.
Thinking so, I think this shall be an addition (in the pack), and you are correct. When you lose your job (in base game), no other Sims, well other than they know you got promoted 'let's go out and celebrate', knows. I kinda liked that from the trailer, but tbf, I was a bit confused on whether it was separate families, or people we were seeing, but that's just me, hah. We'll see, as most people are saying also.
From this trailer it seems like there are a lot of gameplay and new animations which i think makes it worth it. It seems less glamorized compared to other trailers and actually shows the different animations and gameplay features which is good
Videos looks like a big part of the pack, they’re also recording in the beginning, which is exciting but it doesn’t look like an expansion pack. It’s giving game pack! This is my kind of pack for my gameplay so I’m gonna want to be buy it but not for no $40.
Tbh I really wanted preteens since child Sims go from looking 9 to 17 like there needs to be a life stage in-between for 12-14 year olds but I don't think that will happen and I will have to wait until ts5
The recent update remove all the cc from my buildings and my sims. I'm heartbroken: all this hard work, lost. I wish, they would let us opt out of updates: the mods and cc make the game so much better, I cant lose it all again.
With the CC and so, it might have been turned off in the options menu. Another note is, some Sim players say to back up your saves, like make a copy. And if so, also save your builds to your personal gallery, and when the settings are turned back on (manual), you can download your builds and Sims from (your personal) gallery again. Sorry to hear this. They are starting to do this, on every update now - turning off cc/mods options. Take good care, and thanks for sharing this in comments. Hope this helps a little. Plus, with some updates, unfortunately, the cc/mods can get broken, so maybe waiting for the CC/Mods creators to update them will help also. It's a whole process, hahah, but if you are also not sure, there are SOME tutorials, but look for recently updated ones, mostly.
Forgot to say also, you can opt out of updates to some length. It is, forgot where (directions), in the menu options, on the app - where the game is launched. When you are ready to update, you right click on the game icon, in the app, and select update game. Hope this helps too.
I hope it’s as good as the trailer we all know how they like to dramatize that trailer and when we get the game bugs , bugs, and broken 🤦🏾♀️ and this is off topic but i sort of miss burglars 🤣
The ts4 trailers never represent the reality. For example, I bet we cannot build the treehouse and it's just an object. And I also bet that the majority of the toddlers' stuffs will be in the pack.
People who are excited for this pack, have not spent nearly a thousand on this game and I'm not saying that to shame anyone, I'm saying this is where the content divide stems from. To people who have relentlessly updated the game with every feature EA has dropped, there is bound to be recycled content in expansion packs for them because EA is lazy and that is the problem. Ofcourse, someone like me who only has 2 packs, looks at this one with rose tinted glasses because I have been consistent with boycotting the game until I see someone worth buying -(and honestly, with the way ea runs the Sims, I still won't be buying this pack.)- but because EA has spread its content through out its packs over the years, long time buyers will start to feel duped while new comers will feel like experience altogether was earned.
All I'm saying is STOP BUYING PACKS WHEN THEY'RE FIRST RELEASED. We all know it's mostly hype because the majority of the packs be lackluster. I always get packs for my bday or Christmas, which are both late in the year. I just got eco lifestyle this past Christmas. That pack is like 3 years old. 🤷🏿♀️ LOL IJS We complain, but still buy the shit anyway. I make it a point to only get packs when they're ON SALE for at least 30% off. Usually I wait until theyre 50% off though. There are some packs I'm never getting like Vampires, werewolves and paranormal stuff etc because I'm not into that stuff IRL. It would be pointless to spend any money on that at all.
I think infants are a welcome addition for me. Yes they are similar to Toddlers but Toddlers in The Sims 4 are suppose to be oldern than in the sims 2 and 3. If in previus games they were about 1,5 years old maby in the Sims 4 when they first age up they seem to be at least two years old and when develop all they skills, they stop useing the diaper they start to walk confidently, they start to talk a lot and they start to atcualy have complex thoughts they seem to be around 4 years old. Basicly Sim 4 toddlers start where Sims 2/3 Toddlers finish so I think than Infants can bring a lot of new things to the table. I also hope they'll use the same life stages for The Sims 5 but they MUST be all there from day 1. I still hard for me to belive than they removed Toddlers from The Sims 4 at launch, and even if eventualy we ended up getting the best Toddlers in all of the Sims games it still took them an insane ammount of time for something than should have been added back in with Pools and Ghosts (or even better be there from the start)
I'm getting soooooo upset with this game! There are soooooo many DLC. I want to play on both Xbox and PC but there's expensive games i have to buy twice if I want to play on it on both platforms! 🤬
I don't think the elders going on a jog is going to be a feature. I feel like it'll be a walking animation in cas, and they just placed it in the trailer to make you think it has more content
They’re literally reselling a lot of what we already bought. Once again they take aspects from so many different packs and throw them into another extension and I’m not too hopeful about it..
What specifically is repeated, because we have been missing sleeping bags and slumber parties for a long time and also asking for more board games with new animations, and also kids should have had bikes a LONG time ago. I am really happy to have the new infant stage with all the new items for them. I also hope that from the blog notes that we really are going to get more "individual" personality traits that make each sim feel unique but I guess we will see. Overall, I'm happy and excited. Time will tell if I stay that way. LOL
The focus on Infants in the trailer is a bit concerning, but I almost get it - show off the new base game feature alongside the pack that enhances it - almost every time TS4 makes a big base game update it coincides with a pack release. Capitalism dictates that they can’t just “give” things away, this is ultimately a live service product at the end of day and the development costs of toddlers has to be immediately recouped, if not multiplied on. I’m reserving judgement - the repetition of animations and clothing styles doesn’t necessarily bother me as it’s a resourceful way to “remix” stuff potentially at a lower cost IF, and only if, they actually took their time enhancing the relationship systems and making certain there’s tons of cross compatibility with ALL the packs that preceded it. I’m not keeping my hopes too high though…only werewolves was the most recently decent release we’ve had.
I said it in your last video too but this feels like it should have been a parenthood refresh so far and that trailer really made me feel that way even more... Maybe stuff that could have been in little campers too. Regardless, I never pay my packs at full price lmao so I'll have the time to see people actually play with it so I can see if it's worth it or not (for me). The trailer for HSY also made it look like we would be able to do so many things and yet... I personally don't want pre-teens, but I also think it would be great to have that stage in the game. Middle school is cursed but it would be nice to send our sims there, maybe have an exam that allows them to go to high school as well or they can go there early if they have good grades... Have some school trips, make it compatible with outdoor retreat for example... I already know I'm asking for too much lol.
Tbf, I thought they would have crossed Seasons, mostly the campers/Scout (forgot the name) with Outdoor Retreat. Actually do scouting, than them disappearing, hahah.
I’m excited for this I just want things to work!! An expansion like this is what I’ve been waiting for. I’m just happy cuz modders will build on this expansion
This trailer didn’t make me happy it’s meh, tbh I only noticed the house as something new tbh I will wait for the gameplay trailer to see if it’s worth my money
i feel weird about this. on the one hand the actual ideas behind the gameplay we are seeing are super cool and i love them. on the other hand, why are we getting life stages and having to pay to have them fleshed out all the way? why is the chemistry system not basegame and why do i have to pay 40 dollars to have a sleepover? theyre good features but imo they should be basegame or have come with parenthood. i do like the lost tooth thing though. im not trying to be too negative. the world is cool and i hope it's good and i like the gameplay. it's just not worth 40 dollars to me yet. i have to wait until i see people play it first.
I'm glad someone's saying this! I know that some of the animations are coming in the new update, but why does it seem like the exciting stuff is being held behind a CAD$55+tax paywall? They've added this life stage after so many years and players still can't, as you said, flesh it out properly without dropping so much money. Disappointed but definitely not surprised 🙃🙃
I don’t know if anyone played sims 4 free play. You can interact a lot more with the babies and they had there own Health bar and you had to feed and change them when it was time when they started crying. I hope they took notes from the sims free play when it comes to the infants.
@@thesimyin we already knew it is going to be some mess because these sims are aware they have a mind of their own and they do not taking orders. People forget the whole Bella Goth mystery and the not doing what you want them to do.
I know this is weird especially for this pack but I haven’t heard anything about any new careers which is something that definitely should come with an EP
Why couldn’t they have just given us GENERATIONS omg. They could’ve easily done that instead of giving us Parenthood or 1 and 2, also had of the stuff they showed us was available in base game for both TS2 and 3 (with items from the store) I’m just annoyed that they didn’t decide to outright make Generations, people are eating this up already but I’m not excited bc I can already see it being hella broken like everything else they release. EA barely cares about gameplay, everything they do is mostly catered to builders.
Although this could’ve been added in parenthood, I don’t think the new ex pack really gives game pack vibes imo lol. Parenthood is a really BAD overrated pack imo. It adds NO gameplay but new social interactions and that’s it lol. You can’t do anything that they had in sims 3 generations. With this pack, it looks more than just game pack because it comes with a world and a lot of gameplay that other packs don’t have lol. Parenthood didn’t even come with a world.
Even from the trailer, it looks like it add a lot of gameplay so I don’t really see it as a flop. If anything the packs gives us generations rather then a parenthood 2.0 🤷🏽♀️ that’s just my opinion.
@@halalola432 well you can’t say that until the pack is released honestly. Trailers is not gonna show people everything either; so you can’t just go by the trailer either
&& from what I read on the sims website, they supposedly adding a chemistry/attraction system too, which I think adds alot of gameplay imo (even though there’s already mods for it). People have different game styles so every pack might not attract everybody either. But I do feel like they could’ve just have parenthood a refresh with all these features in them just like they did with spa day.
In their guided tour thing for the pack they said we will get a wide range of clothing, acessoires and hair in CAS. The way they wrote it it seems these will come with the basegame update. Though I don't trust them with words like 'wide range'. I guess they will give us at least one bed for infants in the basegame update, since infants seem to need a different bed than the object babies.
It lowkey archs me because to EA this is our generations pack but this isn’t the full experience to even get close to that full expirence u need a bunch of packs like..
This definitely should have been refreshed in the parent hood & HSY pack. I seen a lot of game changers excited but most don’t have to buy this pack or any of these repeat packs. It’s literally parent hood expansion pack including senior citizens & more active infants. As if I want to move that baby lol I literally got a mod to send my toddlers off to daycare back to back 12 hours at a time. They need to add a daycare option as well as boarding school. Kids & families are a hassle for me lol. I normally play single sims & retire them after they start a family.
I was thinking the samething on the parenthood pack. But seems more fleshed out plus most of this stuff should've been in the game from the start. I normally don't care about packs too much but hs and this pack I've been most excited for because I'm down for anything. And we all know it's going to bugs day 1. Nothing new about that. Finally new gameplay as well and I'm down for that too. I'm more of a wait and see usually always but I'm definitely getting the pack for my own reasons. And I see where you coming from. And another thing too it's EA even though I agree with the infant stuff shouldn't be behind a pay wall. At this point EA is just greedy for money and doesn't matter how much your frustrated with that tacked they going to do it anyways. So I definitely agree on that.
I see some good things but if they include too much infant stuff in this pack im gonna be annoyed. The teething ring and the harness can be in the pack but if they try to do high chairs, changing tables, etc in the pack then thats not really giving us infants in an update. Also I think this pack looks low key boring. It doesnt have the charm or half the game play of sims 3 generations
After looking at old trailers and the way they lie, this all looks fake with tiny gameplay updates they seem to just be showing off the world with tiny parent hood additions with it also if you rewatch all of the trailer most of the objects are blurry like the last KITS! 8:17 literally look where the infant is in and the little toy they are chewing on, the bike look a little fuzzy as well but not as bad, 9:39 the moon light on the right isn’t even a shape of a moon 😂it’s all messed up so for 40 dollars I don’t wanna buy it and have the objects look like I took my glasses off
It looks great but I’m still waiting for half off because no pack is worth full price. EPs are £35 in the UK. Insane to me how much they charge when a bunch of them don’t work properly. I play on console so have no access to mods and cc but it is still wild to me how EA has gotten away with relying on mod creators to repair their janky products. I don’t want to hear about Sims5 from them. Cos I’m not spending a single penny on a new game if they cannot be bothered to fix their current game. Love your content!!
LMAO I can not believe you actually watch LGR?! First time I watched your video talking about all the expansion packs after buying everything for $480 (over $600 in CAD which is CRAZY) and after that video I was saying to myself ‘this girl reminds me of the female version of LGR’. But seriously out of all the summers who review sims 4 you are to be trusted. You give it straight no chaser and I appreciate that. Anyway I am a huge fan of the franchise and I am trying to play the sims 4 even though I personally find it boring (I fell asleep through playing Strangerville) and the only EP I have that I like so far is Cottage Living.
I’m trying to have hope but I had so much hope with the high school pack and bought it day 1 a mistake but I’m trying to hope this pack will be amazing but with the past ones that’s hard
Preteens. Want that 11-13 life stage because they made teens too closely to adults with less features. They didn't even give teens much fun things to do. Also the jump from child to teen is strange since teens look too much like adults, did they even have any teens in this trailer? I didn't see one teen, teens ignored again, High school years was just a small addition towards teens but most of it was mainly for looks only. They need to find something for teens that adults won't care about, they are out of touch with teens. Also I feel like having a life stage where you're not a little child and not a teen yet would be great, they could play with toys no matter what traits they had, start getting tired or bored of some toys over others, maybe children and preteens could have a few collections of toys and things that only a childish teen and young adult would be interested in but other young adults and older wouldn't care much for unless it went with a special trait. Speaking of special traits why isn't there any sports cards for active sims, gamers or [ if they make a sports lover trait would like, although I feel like sports lover wouldn't necessarily be active but mainly just like sports (watching sports on TV, collecting sports cards, talking about sports, maybe likes kicking, catch, throwing and dribbling balls but wouldn't care about the gym or gym equipment)]. Kind got a bit carried away there
Honestly, I’m really excited, BUT I’m not getting my hopes up tooooo high, cause of everything in the past with MWS, and HSY, and it looked like we were getting good gameplay that would make things fun especially teens, but, nope, it was boring and felt like nothing new was truly added. I hope, hopeeee they’ve learned their lessons with shipping out bugged, and broken packs, along with packs that add no new game play, and making trailers look like we’re getting soooo much than we truly are. 🤞🏽
I think ‘this is just an extended game pack’ has become a default defence for the negative youtubers in sims community. Even if the gameplay was the same amount parenthood came with no world and a lot less CAS/Build than this will. She doesn’t even know all the features and made her mind up to dislike it right from the start.
