How do you feel about The Sims coming to Alexa? Was this an exciting announcement for you?

I have no memory of this place. Time to start anew I guess
Nope, didn't change my mind.
ETA:
Just to add one thing I do care about is that we aren't playing a free to play game and it feels like they are sponsoring things and people, like that girl I never heard of and now this video that sorta feels like a comercial. It just isn't something other games I play have happening in them.
Saying "not to be rude", then blatently being rude does not excuse rude behavior.
8% based on 4 votes compared to 11% of a population in the millions. Not bad? I’m not sure how you got to that conclusion.

I wonder if this will end up like Lin-Z, and the Alexas will prevent people from traveling or saving their lives.
The Sims 4 hasn't introduced a new musical instrument since 2017

It isn’t technically the game, it’s just trivia and sims music that you can now access with Alexa
I know
I was being a little sarcastic with what they are pushing. To get any use out of what they were showing off you need a smart speaker, and not TS4. Realistically they should be plugging Sims 4 on these streams not A.I. smart speakers.

Sorry, I’m not the best at picking up on sarcasm! Haha. I appreciate all the work the team does to release content for us, but this did feel a bit like youtubers doing a paid promotion. Oh well, I’m sure there’s great stuff to come!
I do like Sims music though and that's about it.
Got my uncle a echo dot recently and he just loves playing witht he thing if he was into the sims he probably would like it.

I wasn’t looking at the chat so I’m not sure how bad it was on there. I haven’t seen anyone on here or twitter being overly rude or hostile about it though, mostly just people saying it isn’t for them. I’m sure as always there were probably people annoyed that it was a pack.
I think Kate was speaking not only about the Alexa thing, but just in general. Some people do get pretty intense if the thing they want isn’t announced.
This.
I hope not. It is really such a little thing that only affects people that want to use it. Those that aren't interested like myself wont, in any way, be affected by it. There are those that do like to create drama out of a little thing though.

From what I understand from some other responses I've seen, some people aren't necessarily unhappy about this event so much as the way it was presented. Allegedly it felt a lot like an unannounced sponsorship and plug for Alexa, but I wouldn't know. I didn't watch the video (too long, not really my thing. I'll hear about it on here anyway). But that's what some commenters under the video on the forum seemed to feel was happening. That they wasted time by watching a video that was ultimately of no benefit to them because it isn't something they'll use.
> Did they include the music from S1? That would be kinda neat.
I'd be more inclined to like it if S1 music was there - I love the build/buy mode tracks (and the entirely to Superstar).
And before I get attacked, I've been investing in this series since the first sims game, so I'd like to think my opinion is a valuable part of the community. If they would just make MORE CONTENT, I would be throwing wads of money at them. I think I almost miss the store at this point lol! At least there was consistent, albeit heavily overpriced, content. And lots of gameplay content too.
I have Lin-Z though, and she plays Sims music, too.
