Is definitely not what I had expected at all. I am absolutely in love. I have played for only 1 and a half hours and I seriously think this is a fantastic game. I moved in mine and my partners sim selfs I made in the CAS demo, and wow. The relationship is harder to build. Sooo many awkward and embarrassing moments. Which I loved! And also just how my sims act like my partner and I. Anish woke up in the middle of the night to go pee because he was busting. Walked to the toilet with legs squeezed together. A bit grumpy from being tired, after he peed he decided to have a late night snack of choc cake my sim self had prepared earlier. His mood changed to happy and he went to bed. A lot more has happened in game but based on what I have seen and experienced, I am in love! My sims game has life again!

In dreams - I LIVE!
In REALITY, I simply exist.....
Haha it's very addictive! I have work today and I was like sweet! 4:30 finish I'll get heaps of gameplay in afterwards, then my other workplace called and asked if I could work 6 - 9 as someone's sick. Soo now I'm not simming.
Defiantly makes me excited to play.
I did the same thing. I was so busy exploring Willow Creek I forgot all about the other neighborhood. I finally made it over there a little while ago, but I like my lush Willow Creek much better. I live in the desert, I need lush in game
I noticed this too, love it. My sim proposed when their romance bar was full, the green bar half way, but she was still shut down.
I can't really describe it correctly, but I'll do my best...I just feel so annoyed sometimes that I have to close the game it out. I feel this way whenever I plan parties. I never ever get it completed successfully. My sims are married, so I don't understand why I have to flirt with other Sims to "become a great host." It's just awkward. Also people tend to leave faster when the party is dirty and that's hard to fix when the garbage can and SINK?! can get full so I have to wait before I can wash anything. It's annoying...
I do love the different interactions though. The moods while lacking are refreshing. I like that I can draw a flirty picture - it's so cute (the llama and the bunny hugging themselves in the sunset!) I just wish that it didn't seem so emotionless when death comes along.
I like this game, I do, I just want some aspects to change. I'll await the next expansion for sure. It's just I'm not in LOVE with it. I think I'll keep trying to immerse myself with the game, and hopefully the higher skilled my sims are maybe I'll not be as grouchy....
It's a different feel and may take you some time to 'warm' to it's charm as others had to. As for the party interactions I haven't thrown one yet. It is the base game so in terms of activities sims can do it is a bit limited but that's generally how base games are. So far I love everything about it and can't wait for future expansions!

Whenever I go to activities outside, it feels very stale. There's not much to do - but it is the base game so I can't really complain. I just can't phantom why I get so bored. I go exploring and try hard to level their jobs, but it doesn't feel like I'm progressing.

I know it's limited but it asks for me to play an instrument for 1 hour and then wait for sims to react to me. Which I do, and get the 1 hour achievement but all the other simmers are ignoring me. Party ends because they are so bored. So again, I suppose I will have to wait till my sims get better on skills because they really hate my house parties. ;/
