I definitely don't think they fit under "watercraft" and no houseboats appear in any of the pictures so I am 99% sure they are not included. Not a dealbreaker by any means though.

    Same here! So disappointed by the lack of houseboats. Had to look up "watercraft", but it's probably not houseboats as you say. Might be a dealbreaker for me tbh. I'll probably wait until it's on sale at least.

    In the toddler pic, you can see a seashell. I'd say they're a new collectible.I hope so. I want them in my house!

    wow made my day! I'm so happy to see the toddlee there. I just had two tots in my game and thought I couldn't go on holiday.

    It's Island living - so our Sims live there - not a vacation from what I understand. There are new jobs and everything.

    That's fine but I was just worried the toddlers couldn't participate in anything. I have twins so I'll make them make sandcastles while mum and dad do other things lol

    Looks like TS3 Island Paradise, which was very short-lived since TS4 was pretty much right on its heels. Waiting on the Game Changers to be able to review.

    I just said earlier I wasn't going to get my hopes too high that this pack could be anywhere close to Island Paradise. If everything in these leaks are confirmed tomorrow, I'll be ecstatic! Can't wait for the live stream.

    Mermaids? Check. Swimming and snorkeling? Check. The ability to learn about local culture? Check. Lifeguard career? Check. Tanning? Seems likely. Sand castle building? Check. Luaus? Well, we have a barbecue event, so maybe. The only big-big things I'm missing are surfing and surfing competitions.

    It even has some stuff I didn't know I wanted, like canoes, floaters and jet skis. The part about conservation and environmentalism causing an impact over the island sounds especially awesome. Hopefully that's not flavor text, and we can actually create a visible change. Double-hope that we can also litter and totally ruin the island's ecosystem, too.

    They could easily mess this up (like making mermaids NPC-only), but this pack is looking great so far. Many of my biggest wished look like they've been answered, there's a lot of content, and even the CAS items look great.

    I think it's just a render, so hopefully not.

    So...you can meet a mermaid, but you can't be a mermaid...?

    The mermaid has a plumbob.

    The mermaid's plumbob is ordinary plumbob and not a special design like for vampires and aliens :neutral: this makes me question things.

    Considering there's boats, will cars come in a patch?

    did the skeletons in JA have different plumbobs? Maybe you can become a mermaid temporarily.

    It's not a costume because the official description mention mermaids :) !

    when the gurus did the poll asking what the most wanted lifestates were, mermaids were the second most voted for lifestate after witches. they'll be playable.

    They'd better be. 2.5 years since we've had a permanent, playable one.

    Anyone else feel kinda bad that all this has been posted? Like we waited this long, we only had another ~24 hours to wait. I know the content was available on Origin and anyone could have gotten to it if they knew where to look but the team must have been so excited to share it all tomorrow and someone has kinda ruined that. I know we'll all still be tuning into the stream and sharing the excitement and there will probably be more to share but things like dolphins and jet-skis I was not expecting and would have been a massive surprise tomorrow when watching!

    Nope. We haven’t content or info for months. At least we have something worthwhile to talk about until things get confirmed. And this happens all the time so 🤷‍♀️

    I was honestly wondering the same. The description says "meet a mermaid" which could mean there are multiple ones but worst case scenario would be that there's only one mermaid and she's a special NPC like the hermit or the bear costume in Granite Falls.
