Well it looks like the Livestream didn't change many minds. Negatives are still negative and positives are still positive. 
So are you buying Dream Home Decorator?

Iโm only afraid of what bugs will happen on release for both the patch & game release.
Sea may rise, sky may fall, My love will never die..
My heart, my heart, My drowning heart, Oh all the tears I've cried
Oh I may weep forevermore, My love will never die..
Now if they make a pack like that tv channel.....๐
The furniture is amazing though. Likes and dislikes are a good idea but overall I donโt think Iโd end up using the career only the furniture. (Must try and save money!)
We want: Faeries, with a good ability tree, hopefully before summer 2024.
What do we want to get rid of: The holiday bug, the constant showering and the weed glitch.
But... it's the first time a livestream puts me down... i really hated the let's play they did, explaining every detail, every interaction... reading texts... like if talking to kids, trying to convince us that if we walk through everything slowly and spend some long minutes watching a sim's tv channel it will look like they're showing us tooooons of stuff... It was kind of insulting really...
For me personally, it will really drive how I play the game and incorporate one of my favorite things in the game which is to makeover houses, to make them more user friendly to my playstyl.
I know there are a bunch of people who are like "How is this any different than what we've always been able to do?"
Well for starters:
1 - Reputation system (this can be played several ways, try to be the best of the best ... or deliberately torture yours sims by putting in things they'd hate to see how quickly your reputation drops or trying to see often you can get fired). You don't have that when building freely.
2 - Restrictions on what you're allowed to redecorate. Being lower level on the career ladder you can only redo "rooms" so you may have to wait to make over the rest of that particular house, as you climb the ladder you get the option to make over "levels" ... as in the 1st floor or the 2nd floor. Eventually your reputation will allow you to make over entire venues too.
3 - Staying within a budget, if you're a builder or decorator who likes a pretty environment, staying within a budget might be tricky. I know I personally never worry about how much my houses are when I play. I normally decorate first, and then use the freerestate cheat to buy the house and then play.
4 - Footprint restrictions, some jobs will require you to only have a certain footprint size and keeping within those limitations might be a little more challenging
5 - The modular shelving and furniture will be easier to fit into smaller footprint houses, such as Tiny Houses.
6 - Making money once the gig is done, redecorationg freely doesn't pay you unless you cheat.
So yeah, to me personally, this pack will keep me busy and interested for a while.
Be on sale, at least 50% off
have lots of content I would actually use - pictures I've seen so far point to content being mostly modern
the usual disappointment/frustration with glitches/etc. reports are within reasonable levels - learned a long time ago that with EA's packs a wait and see approach is best.
Because I can't; I keep all sigs turned off.
I hate the new career and I don't want to do it but I like the items. I just don't have any idea how to use those modular shelves, it's like rocket science to me to combine them and it gives me anxiety to even think about it.
I'm probably buying the pack some day, some time after release, maybe later, but I'm not happy about it. Seriously... a game pack just about one career.
I like the sectional sofas, the closet pieces, and the clutter items, but have no interest in the career itself. And a few build items isn't really enough to convince me to buy it.
If I decide to buy it though, it's going to be on a 50% sale. It's not worth any more than $10 to me, since it's still essentially a glorified stuff pack if you ask me.
