How does this pack stack up so far to the Generations pack from S3?
Well as a huge sims 3 fans. ( My fist sims game). I'll say kinda well. Keep in mind Generations is an expansion pack. While this is a game pack so this will be smaller. Sims seem to be able to set curfews, and kids teens now can get in trouble.
OOH, maybe someone can ask a guru, but will the generated teens have some bad attitudes, too? Since no one plays the parent and they wouldn't be getting a benefit of teaching manners etc. @SimGuruNinja

I'm excited for this! I can't wait to experiment with the outcomes. I'm especially interested to see what happens if your sim is a neglectful parent; I do love me some consequences!

I was just asking I wonder how this will affect the kids and teens generated by game? That may be worth finding out for some who don't actually care to play families. Maybe more interesting townies.
(Maybe I will have to get some biting toddlers and turn them loose as townies)

Didn't people complain that Generations was smaller than the other expansion packs, back in the day? I loved it because it added lots of little details but it was more subtle than the other EPs for Sims 3. Given the fact that the Parenthood pack is in some ways a successor to Generations, I can definitely see why the team chose a Game Pack for this one.

Biting vampire toddlers. Give vamps a taste of their own medicine lol

Yes, but I thought it added everything (interactions and responses to things happening) where others didn't see those things missing in TS3 as I did. Just like this game. So...to me this GP will change the game in ways they can't imagine right now. Especially, if you think about game generated kids and teens who grow into YA etc. The 'what if' is going to change everything in my opinion. And that's a good thing.

I can't say, I didn't start playing the sims until 2014.
The actual trailer looks awesome! The new hairstyles look great and the BB items as well. I am already in love with the new stove, and what about those shower curtains? It's probably a new shower/bathtub combination. The counters and the living room furniture ... the activity table ... there is so much in the trailer, I have only watched it twice and probably missed a bunch of stuff!

I am in love with that shower curtain! I thought it was a new bathtub, but the more I look at it, the more it looks like a walk in shower. Either way the elephants on it are adorable

Yeah I agree with this. TS3 feels empty to me without Generations, or at least emptier. So I've got a really good feeling about this
I know it's a render, but the teen does look shorter even though she's not doing anything different other than standing. @luthienrising what do you think, purely for render or a hidden feature?
The mom has heels on. :x so probably just for render effect.
@SylvanGladiator I agree - either way, it looks great. And I have spotted an owl plushie, so now it's settled: I am getting the new pack. Owls are my favourite!
It's okay though. I'm so happy about everything today.
Same here. I would LOVE Preteens, but I am not mad that they're not in this. Perhaps they will be released later, but because the Team is fixing Teens, I think I'll be "okay" if preteens aren't introduced. Though I would be really happy if they were, I'm really happy with this game pack and hopefully future packs that continue to develop our Sim children. !!!

It didn't come with a new world, so that reduced the size compared to the other EPs.

Yeah, not too big of a deal to me since it seems like teens have really been revamped and don't look like young adults anymore. I don't think we necessarily need pre-teens if we just have proper teens

Yeah, I'd rather they focus on fixing the teens we do have, than for them to spread their focus by having to create a whole new lifestage.
So are the "childhood" traits similar to the toddler traits, and just show up later as extra boost-giving traits or are we actually going to be getting new unique traits?
Or even extra trait slot, depending on how well the kid did or w/e...?

I guess I could live without preteens it was good idea though whoever thought of it.
