My unpopular opinion is that I am not impressed by the upcoming ROM pack.
I watched what I could of the video/presentation and I didn't really see anything I liked.
I am really gutted as I was hoping for something like we had in sims 3 but the new one was too cutesy and 'nice'.
I know I'll buy it on Tuesday just for the sake of keeping my sims game up to date but it really didn't do anything for me.
Island Paradise was a disappointment too, no proper scuba diving or game play, just pretty scenery..
Probably because I'm a new Simmer (one of the ones that picked it up free in May) but I really don't care what the previous games (Sims 1-3) were like or what they offered that Sims 4 doesn't.
I like vampires and witches but I despise werewolves and I don't want them in the game.
My opinion on this would be different if they transformed into actual wolves but bigger, like in Twilight, rather than those ugly, hairy, humanoid-ape messes that act and move as if they have a huge overflow of radioactive testosterone in their bodies...
I don't like that a large portion of the female clothing is low-cut at the neckline, or shows the belly, or is sleeveless. While it suits some of my sims just fine, other sims are conservative dressers and wouldn't ever wear those. We need more modest clothing options.
This, 100% agree.
Female sims tend to get more clothing options...but a huge chunk seem to be this type, especially the belly exposure. I actully use a cc vest top under a fair few of the tops for some of my Sims.

Yes! I didn't like the wereolves in Sims 3 much at all and barely used them after the Supernatural pack had been out for a few weeks.
Alpha CC is hiddeous. Putting it lightly if you ask me.
You know what....i just took a look at some pictures of sims with alpha cc and I have to agree. And take back my earlier comment. A lot of it looks tacky and disharmonious.
I want werewolves really badly, but ONLY if they come with the same attention and care given to vampires. A full skill tree, and many customization options to make their other form unique.
I HATED Sims 3 1950's Wolfman looking nastiness. I want 2004 Van Helsing werewolves - full on Creature looking things. It can be done. HOWEVER - I also want options, so maybe we can get both! 50s werewolves, 70s werewolves, and full on bipedal wolf monsters. Maybe some sims can even go full Dog (someone w/o Pets installed could have a werewolf spouse and get a temp. dog every now and then lol)
Werewolves also need to come with official body hair for sims. Luumia has done the world a service with his bodyhair, but some folks don't use CC.
Werewolves also need their own small world, or at least a 'hidden lot' style world like for aliens that allows them to be out in their other form and running, exploring, digging, etc.
Mermaids are beautiful in sims 4 but were a major letdown because they had no proper skill tree, and the sims traits prevented certain skills from being used.
We deserve better occult life stages. And we deserve Werewolves, the sworn enemies of Vampires, to be given the same love and attention as Vampires.
Create-A-Style was a waste of time and I'm glad that it isn't in TS4.
Maybe, but color wheel is desperately needed imo.
I do agree and for me it is better to have something than nothing at all. I look at the Sims 4 colors as a few primary and a few basic colors. There is no variation in the colors offered as it was in Sims 2 and 3. The creavity level can only reach an certain level and then it drops off.

I agree, I would be more interested in seeing teens be shorter than adults, and maybe a little more baby-faced. Also, some facial hair options for someone whose mustache or beard is just beginning to come in for the first time
I think his reviews get a lot of attention because they are easy to refer to and aren't super long. They're good for getting a quick overview and then you can look for more in depth overviews from others, if you're still interested.

Same here, I tried and just couldn't, I wanted to tho
I also wish that sims came with not so,good relationships with other sims they shouldn't be getting along with like they did in 3. For instance Vlad and the Vatores, Landgraabs and Johnny Zest and such

Also LGR reviews are overly praised.
10000% agreed with this.

I don’t miss having cars
I think get together and parenthood are overrated packs

I don't care for packs catered towards YA females only.

I think they mean houses all built and decorated in Black, White, and Grey.
Or all one color - so like, All hues of purple, nothing else. But usually monochrome means black & white.
It's often seen on Modern builds, but it gets old fast.
Easy to match swatches tho, at least!
I sure as heck don't want a farming pack. We already have a gardening aspiration.
