    Am I the only one who doesn't like when the narrator talks like we're children?

    Yes! Thank you! I genuinely liked the trailer, but had to turn the audio off during my second watch. It's too much, I felt like I was watching a trailer for a kids show or something.

    Omg I felt the same. Nothing against the speaker but this time it was really feeling like she was talking to kids. I know that she's the same speaker from City Living and Cats & Dogs and in those trailers I didn't got that uncomfortable kiddy vibe.

    Makes it seem like TS4 is a kids only game, which it is clearly not.

    Not to be rude but I dislike the reader's voice since the very first trailer she voiced over. Her voice is too exaggerated at times and it becomes cringy to hear as it's like they are trying to sell the trailers to 7 year olds.

    I love whoever narrated Jungle Adventure's trailer, Vampires and Spa Day they did really good.

    It sounds like Racheal Frankelin but I like her voice.

    I'm going to create the Cool Down Day Holiday for Summer. With waterslides and sprinklers I think it will work out well.

    Reminds of tourguide barbie to be quite honest or one of those old barbie games Barbie usually tended to narrate quite a lot in.

    I think Racheal still does the voice narration for the trailers.

    There's GLAZED HAM!!! everything else is irrelevant That's one of the new dishes I've been requesting for years! Honey Glazed Ham.

    I love that we get to design traditions.

    I hope there are pumpkin pies too though!! I haven't seen any in the trailer.

    I would love pumpkins! like to actually grow pumpkins. i know they introduced pumpkin carving in spooky stuff but to grow it yourself, :o and even have the biggest pumpkin growing contest for harvest festivals.

    Does growing pumpkins take up as much space as I think it does?

    The rewards traits sound like fun to earn, and I'm very excited over creating your own lil' holidays.

    You’re right, I just wanna see the toddlers get some more stuff to do and enjoy with seasons. I like the phrase “good noodle” so cute!
    Looks like they did. Glad the younger sims were thought of for the pack. More things for toddlers to use and play with is always welcomed. Looking at the trailer again that cute inflatable pool actually was blowing out mist over the toddler pool helping to keep them cool. ;O; It's so cute didn't expect that detail. Playing with snow and snowmen (kinda wonder if they can eat snow) and also being able to receive gifts for Winterfest. That and the recent new screen shot from @SimGuruGeorge seems like the flower bunny plays with toddlers too. It's cute.

    I'm really glad that they didn't reuse the same mesh of the bear that has been included and reused|recycled in other packs like
    City Living (racoon), Parenthood (Phase Bear), My First Pet (refaced Hamster) etc.

    But I also like the idea of "these bears in each pack" cause sure they did add a pretty neat gameplay.

    y'all got bread?

    Honestly I can't agree about the giant animal costumes, it's a silly gimmick that tries to force 'wackiness' into the game. If they are added to entertain children or just a single crazy thing including an animal costume in a single pack, sure. But 2 EPs, 2 GPs and one SP including big animal costumes is a bit too much...

    That's not Rachel Franklin's voice @catloverplayer ahahaha.

    No more bears less I can have a pic-a-nic basket for them to pilfer from :V.

    Yeah, I'd rather not see reused bear costumes anymore enough recolors of them for sure. You could say that it's

    un-BEAR-able. :p

    The promo is great but until you play the game yourself you will see how this season pack is. I played yesterday with a headset on and the wind and the snow falling down was great. Oh my gosh! It was night time and the neighborhood changed too in the game.

    Until you play it yourself you won't know how much they put into the game.

    Did you happen to notice if there were any new lot traits?

    I didn't check out lot traits but weather does effect how the sim feels in the weather. Rain without umbrella gives 2+ negative moodlets and snow.

    Even though a few days have already come and gone, I still can't stop rewatching it over and over again. Let's hope the patch will arrive this week!

    Why are snowmen called snowpals? Political correctness gone too far again I suspect. :neutral:

    They... don't have genitalia? I don't see a problem with giving them a cute different name. Maybe they shouldn't have been called "men" in the first place ;)

    Maybe there are more options then just the traditional snow man design? Like maybe you can make an animal design or an alien or something? I'm not sure why it's something that has to have a big deal made out of it either way.

    I think calling them snowpals is cute. <3 And appropriate for Sims 4.

    No idea. it's too cute! and it disgusts me...
    I would have called them snow figures, or even Snow Golems sounds more fun.
    fun fact my sister hates snow men till this day.

    she hates it when figures appear outside the window at night, Snowmen, Scarecrows
    I think it has to do with this commercial, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8PUQjCbjVOU

    Not for me it isn't. I have a furry woohoo club in my game so I always welcome new animal costumes. :D Let's not forget that what is too much for you might be gameplay for someone else.

    Lol! :D how do you even make that club? I heard people created woohoo clubs in the past but I don’t know what they chose in the club options

    Animal costumes have been a thing since the very first sims game with Claire the bear.

    I personally think it's hilarious and I love it. The only things you really see often is the bear in Granite Falls and the Racoon occasionally in San Myshuno.

    Activites are 'Be Romantic with Pri-mates, Kiss Pri-Mates, Woohoo with Pri-mates, and Spa activities.' I've only included the massage table as a spa activity. They have a public (but private) hangout and sometimes meet at member's homes for a change of scenery.

    Disclaimer: I did not make this lot, it is the combination of a nightclub made by one simmer and a room created by another which I've edited heavily. That Easter bunny in the trailer will make a great addition. ;)
