Curfew was a Parenthood feature and in fully the hands of the parents, now it looks like it's getting reintroduced as a default state. Curfew and hall pass are two concepts that are abit "too american" for my taste.
I hope the curfews are player customisable still. I don't really get the hall pass thing though, I hope I can choose to opt out of it if I want to.
Hot dog, looks like I'm saving $40 US this summer.
They look too old for High School, they even looked older than the young adults to me. Promposals? Are you kidding? I may hurl. And you know I love me some colorful clothes and all but dang, I found myself wishing for my sunglasses while watching all that brightly colored stuff go by.
I am glad the Photo Booth is back, though.
I am not interested in this one at all. Excuse me while I go back to my Wild Woo-ooooo-oolfies...

I hope we can customize Curfews per kid. I want my kids coming home at 8 and my teens can stay out until 10... except the one with a job, who can stay out until midnight, and the one who's failing who needs to be home by 5. (as examples.)
Oh, and make them 2 hours later if the next day doesn't have school.

Those are excellent points. I would love to be able to customise curfews per child. Also, curfew should not apply if the child or teen has gone off to Granite Falls for the week. I often forget to switch it off when I send families on holiday, so of course the game thinks they should be at their home lot.
Upset that the amusement park /carnival items are all rabbit holes
losing hope we get non rabbit hole ones ever now *sighs*
I didn't want carnival just to go eat stuff and vanish into nothingness
It's probably one weakness of this pack.
No arcade, no games, no cotton candy ... it's the usual picnic area.

Maybe I'm too old, but I'm not interested in Highschool gameplay. Like other said it is too american. And I don't like all the recycled gameplay. Football looks like soccer, cheerleading is like dancing. There is a new fashion online shop? Would have been nice but we already have plobsy. The influencer and fashion activity also would have been nice if we didn't already have careers like this.
Bands would have been nice or other really new activities which are not so typical american.
I will probably buy the pack because I like the CAS and the objects but maybe not for the full price.
My first thought while watching the trailer was "what kind of high schooler has a full on double bed?" lol I had a really small twin bed when I was in high school.

yeah and like i was wishing if we ever get carnivals or amusement parks itd be more like between clowntastic land and roaring heights where you can watch your sims do fun stuff like take rollercoaster ride or ride ferriswheel or carousel if thats easier or play carnival games or even do some show magic or something all this rabbithole land does is take your sims out of sight so you have to imagine they're having fun
and i don't particularily see why they had to fit it in school pack anyway if fitting that in the pack was problem
I'm most excited about cross-legged sitting and sneaking out of the window.
I'd be excited about sneaking out of the window if I wasn't being forced into using a specific window and trellis in order to access the interaction. If I don't want those on my sim's house - and I don't - I lose out.
My first thought while watching the trailer was "what kind of high schooler has a full on double bed?" lol I had a really small twin bed when I was in high school.
I have no idea how it's called in English but as a teenager (and still now actually) I and many people I know had this '1.5 bed' which is like almost a double bed but not really, I'm sure it has an official name...
So since The Sims 4 only has single or double beds, a double bed looks closer in size to it. You can even see one in most of the premade household homes that have teenagers, like Cassandra Goth's bedroom.
I'm unsure about this pack. I dislike trying to relive the high school experience that I never actually experienced because I wasn't that kind of high schooler. The school building looks NOTHING like my experiences of what high school buildings were like (we were a much more spread out campus and Spanish class was in a portable in the parking lot).
I'm also not too thrilled about the shaving interactions being so pack specific (thank goodness the body hair update is base game) because I'd sooner gargle bleach than try to imagine what prom should be like for my sims so if i did end up getting the pack, it's all going to be because I like the world and maybe some of the interactions. Sigh. I would pay GP prices, but I'm not wild about a full EP price for this.

Me? Most of my friends did, too. Well, I will, say, the girls usually did, not so much the guys.

Opposite reaction to that part
I always consider single beds to be very uncomfy so I can't bring myself to give them to any sim over child age unless i literally don't have the space
then again thats probably cause i always had 120 wide myself so its like in between and double dimensions in sims still look more like that to me than single that looks like 80 wide
So far it looks too American for my game. I have zero interest in football, cheer, prom or detention. I do not know how malleable the pack will be in order to build a school experience that suits Sulani, Windenburg, Mt Komorebi or a occult specific school.
So far the trailer was a list of turnoffs, just a long list that I have no wish for. We will see but this will not be an early purchase. We will see how the pack actually works in videos and other things.
Not the end of the world, it would be the first expansion pack that I skipped and so far I feel relieved that there is nothing that I would miss but not buying it.

Yeah it is very limiting I wonder whether only the window can be used if teen's room is in the first floor.
In France, hats are forbidden inside the high school because it's bad manners.
Bad manners? What about entering the classroom as a raging werebeast or a thirsty vampire, or looking right through a classmate who is a ghost. Pretty sure the teachers won't appreciate some of that behavior! Hats will be the least of their worries.
I'm also glad bands are not part of this pack, even though being able to start a garageband would seem perfectly logical for teen related DLC.
I still feel that bands deserve their own GP/EP! There's so much more that can be done with music related features.
My negative comment: I abhor the relationship these sims (all sims) have with their phones. Absolutely sick to the teeth of those things. Sure they are "teens", i don't care. Burn them. Inferniate! The phones I mean. And some of the teens.
I would LOVE to play as the new head of school and have an option to ban phones from Twitter High and I swear to Greg as soon as ONE teen refuses to adhere to my antiphone policy I'd make her lock up ALL of the students in the coalshed. Her, as in Miss Trunchbull. And yes there will be a coalshed. There will be many coalsheds. I hope I can fully customize this school.

Maybe this is also a very american thing. In my country teenager usually have single beds.
My Sims teenager never have double beds and I hope there will be single beds in the pack too.
Comments
I did get rather excited when I saw the funfair... until I realised it was probably all rabbitholes.
It does have a few things in it that appeal to me, but not a lot. I will wait to see more.
I hope the curfews are player customisable still. I don't really get the hall pass thing though, I hope I can choose to opt out of it if I want to.
They look too old for High School, they even looked older than the young adults to me. Promposals? Are you kidding? I may hurl. And you know I love me some colorful clothes and all but dang, I found myself wishing for my sunglasses while watching all that brightly colored stuff go by.

The Sims 4 General DiscussionSo since The Sims 4 only has single or double beds, a double bed looks closer in size to it. You can even see one in most of the premade household homes that have teenagers, like Cassandra Goth's bedroom.
7 of the lots have been confirmed to be built by simmers. We almost always get an empty lot. So I think at least eight.

I laughed that the main trailer sim looked 30! A couple of the hair styles they have will work to make younger looking teens though.
