Disneyland or Batuu?

I’d love to take my sims and their simkids to Disneyland - Not Batuu… ^^’
I want them to be able to hold fun foil-balloons in their hands - not laser swords… I want them to go on super detailed rides/attractions and eat cotton candy. And I want to be able to change the menus after different seasons.
I want my sims to stay at unique hotels with restaurants, souvenir shops, spas, pools and room service menus. (= Several different lot-types on one single lot!).
I want to create unique themed foods for different restaurants. Also unique-looking (and in-game tasting) milkshakes, ice creams and other treats. I want to be able to make all this and much more without going through the trouble of modding. So what we need is simplified tools provided by EA. Like for example: ”Create a Dish”, ”Create a Treat”, ”Create a Drink”, ”Create a Sign”, ”Create a Plushie”, ”Create an Ornament” and so on. Maybe we could even share our creations at the Gallery?
I really want to buy these Creative Tools in the future instead of Kits. How about you?
I want parks without chess boards and grills. I want to crossbreed tulips to get new interesting colour variations. I want less same-same-saaame clothes, shoes & furniture and more creative tools, superfun gameplay and new lots with some unique wow-factor to visit. When I create a shop I don’t want to sell/buy the same things over and over - It would be superfun to be able to create more unique stuff to buy and sell, don’t you think?
^^ I want to play this game so much - and all I can hope for is TS5… This is some of the things I want in my future sims-game - What do you want in your perfect TS5-game?

I would rather sims has its own worlds
like it used to.
if its amusement park we seek they could bring back magic town from ts1 and improve upon it instead

^^’ You’re right! I just meant that for me personally, Star Wars-characters in TS4 would’ve made a lot more sense - if they would’ve been actors at an amusement park (as they are at Disneyland) taking pictures together with our sims, walking in parades and so on… 😄🎡🎢🎠
I just felt today, when I ”went to” Disneyland in Minecraft (Switch) that I recognized so much! It was all there! (Well almost… ^^’) And all I could talk about with my friends was how cool it would be if we someday could have a Disneyland-EP for TS5 😃😍😄
So it was never my intention in any way to criticize simmers that enjoy Batuu! 💙 Sorry if it came across that way. I just personally much rather prefer meeting Star Wars-characters at an amusement park than in a another solar system… And I do want attractions/rides for my sims rather than real spaceships… But once again - maybe that’s just me… ^^’
What Minecraft really made me realize also was how much fun it was to explore a place in-game that you actually been to irl! 😃 We went everywhere ”at Disneyland” with our Minecraft-characters - and I just think it’s a huge missed opportunity if we’re not able to create something similar - in TS5 at least.
> I don't want any real life corporations in the game. None.
Y'know, I've always had a sneaking suspicion that if the Sims 4 featured a pack that was a shout-out to Star Wars without literally being based on Star Wars, it would've been better received. (I mean, Realm of Magic has Harry Potter references, and Strangerville is one big Stranger Things shout-out, and those packs don't get as much hate.)
Fun fact: I've gotten some enjoyment out of Journey to Batuu, since I love lightsabers and being able to add to my Sci-Fi themed lots, but I think Batuu itself kinda sucks. (I usually scratch my lightsaber itch with the hiddenobjects cheat and a mod that removes the "collectables" flag.)
You might be right about the reception. I happen to love Star Wars stuff, but I prefer things in Sims 4 not to be based directly on real stuff -- or in the case of Journey to Batuu, fictional stuff from real-life (non-Sims) media. I have no problem with things in the game if they're simply inspired by or with references to other media or real-life things, people, or places, though. Just not so on-the-nose as Batuu seems to have been done. That said, I do enjoy JtB a lot, but I don't play it as anything from the Star Wars franchise. I re-imagine it as my own fictional setting, in which I can create my own stories with my own rules.
Because I can't; I keep all sigs turned off.
With that said, I'd still do that run for a funfair/theme park pack...
Something like what we had in Sims 1 would be nice.
So that's what I would like for The Sims4, and The Sims5. More creative freedom, variety and gameplay.
Let me build and play my in my own Disneyland.
The ability to create and share our own things would be pretty cool. I'd probably never personally want an amusement park, though; I don't much like them in real life, either.

> The ability to create and share our own things would be pretty cool. I'd probably never personally want an amusement park, though; I don't much like them in real life, either. :lol: But it would be awesome to have the opportunity for everyone to make what they want to have, whether or not we'd be able to share them with others.
That's why I'd prefer I creation kit to an expansion. Whatever option gives the player the ability to change the world to fit their desires would (in my opinion) be a better.
