Just thought I'll post it here as not every Simmer has a twitter account.

That round face and that unbelievably cute lisp. Every time he thought he messed up was just so lovable. I literally couldn't pay attention to any of the gameplay in the livestream.
Conor's enthusiasm, (CAN YOU SAY METAL AIR GUITAR???), the incredible new animations, and the vast number of objects added to the pack make this a stuffed to the brim pack.
I can't wait-and that's not even considering the adorable baby onesies!!!
Congrats to the whole team. Clearly a lot of work and love went into this pack, and i look forward to checking it all out.
Now, where are those knitting needles?
I only wish they had made more of the hats (there were so many adorable ones) besides just the beanie, that the scarves were separate neck accessories, and that they had made mittens or gloves for all ages as well. I also wish we had been given a new Passionate Knitter (or whatever) trait, besides the reward trait which comes from completing the aspiration. I assume, since we didn't see it, that toddlers cannot rock in the chair with an adult as well (not that I really expected that option -- but it would have been nice). I am also a bit disappointed not to be able to sell items from the Fabricator on Plopsy, mainly because there still is no way in the game to sell the crafted furniture except through the retail system.
However, even though it doesn't include every single little thing I wanted, this pack still feels like an embarrassment of riches. There is so much in it, from unlockable clothes in many swatches and for all ages, to children being able to knit, to Plopsy, to the 4 rocking chairs, a new aspiration with extra perks (like being able to knit the two Yarnys and that hideous sweater with the bobbles), plenty of new animations (including a pretty nice looking knitting animation with needles that start out empty and gradually fill, the air guitar/ headbanging animation that goes with the new Metal station, the teach to knit animation with kids). They are all so very cute. I also like that there are fail states for every item of clothing, itchy fail states, and that those versions are only available through gameplay (which means that you can't buy them on Plopsy; this makes sense). I am so eager to try all this out in my game.
Yes @stilljustme2 it will be available as a VOD on Twitch, also Sims VIP usually posts a full length playback of the live-streams on their YouTube channel.

There was some noticeable lag and buffering issues, probably because Conor was streaming it from home on his home computer.
I would've loved to see some things that he messed up showing, though.
As for the pack I have to say I loved the "teach to knit animation*
My vampire Evilia Doom had a cowplant friend called Cordelia when she was still a human, but Cordelia betrayed her and ate her once. It was too much for Evilia and she let Cordelia die. Evilia still has her skeleton and I'd love to be able to name it.
thank you so much sims team me is happy and ready to knitknit

Reminiscence in the rocking chair was really adorable. One of the most precious animations we have. I know I will be using it a lot. It reminds me of when my great great grandmother was telling me her story. I always used to ask her to tell it even though it was mostly sad. But it has reminded me not to judge people over stupid things such as skin color, gender preference, etc. We never know what is behind closed doors.
I am very excited for this pack. I know this one will be the best one for me.
Soon my sims will rock'n'knit.
I'm so ready to play my one of my two designated knitters and watch her cats play and make a mess with yarn. Looking forward to decorating.
I like that we are getting that smaller saucer light as the bigger one is my favorite because it doesn't block my view as much as the others.
I like that SimGuruConor didn't say anything at all with one reminiscing memory because of the look he gave while not saying anything.. mmhmm.. (insert pregnant pause here). Nope no hints ever!
The onesis are great, whoop.. there is something else to put babies in! Glad we got two radio stations. Not sure I want my knitter to be a METAL granny but will definitely have some METAL loving sims, air guitar looks like a fun addition.
Yeah... I'm ready to set up child labor with knitting, or maybe play it nice, maybe.
Thanks for the link! It was buffering very bad for me last night & I can't enjoy the live stream. Now, I can watch it! Thanks!
Hmmm i think this pack is gonna be a reality:)
I know we have a lot of complaints about TS4, but seriously, it's comforting to see this kind of passion coming from the Gurus' for the packs they work on. I don't care if the stream was a bit messy. The passion shines through. That's all that matters. It did for me anyway.
@SimGuruConor did a phenomenal job sharing all these deep dives with the community and taking a lot of the feedback on board. This guy's sound out.
Also:
SGSarah: There's no Woohoo in the rocking chair.
SGConor: I'll leave it to WWhims, they'll think of something.
...
priceless.
