These devs claim to be long time die hard fans of this game, and claim to listen to what we want... but we get this monstrosity instead. More like Maxis have just become label puppets for EA now.
I'll be interested in the new planet, building objects and tools but will be keeping clear of any killing stuff. I don't want guns in my game. It's probably not obligatory as StrangerVille wasn't either. I don't mind an adventure occasionally and never completed StrangerVille but I loved the build and buy stuff there. I can see why it has come after Realm of Magic as it looks like some of the same actions used for the new weapons.
It might be interesting to see how it sells though. Some of the Star Wars players might like to make their own world for a change.
I feel that EA/Maxis are finally trying to shake off their older fans with a pack that might crash their machines! It makes me wonder what's coming in the Fall/Autumn pack.

I agree and being an older fan (I have bought all the games, expansion packs, stuff packs for all the sim games 1through 4) I feel they have succeeded in 'alienating' me from their franchise.
Rather than fixing many bug fixes and listening to fan's requests for better gameplay, they decided to jump into bed with a franchise that many don't want or would happily have given up for better gameplay with what we have already in the game. Most wanted better babies, generations for sims 4, etc, etc.
There have been packs in the past I haven't been keen on but this is one I would avoid at all costs and not because I am against sci-fi, I'm a big sci-fi fan I just don't like Star Wars and don't see the attraction of basing a game pack on a Star Wars-themed story. If this was on their T.V. show sparked I would give the comment that they lacked imagination and instead used someone else story' rather than developing their own.
I found the Dragon Age 4 video though so that made me happy and nostalgic.
I was a bit puzzled about this bit in their blog...
Plus, any droids ordered on Batuu return to the Sims world as well! Sure, droids might not go around zapping people in Willow Creek, but Sims can still build relationships with them and have fun driving them around with a datapad!
What's a datapad?
thats honestly the worst part of it. we wait 6+ months for packs and news on the packs.
Anticipating Sims 5.... : P
Good.......job.
